Matthew 19:21-26

English Standard Version

²¹ Jesus said to him, “If you would be ^(A)perfect, go, ^(B)sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have ^(C)treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” ^22 (D)When the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.

²³ And Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly, I say to you, ^(E)only with difficulty will a rich person enter the kingdom of heaven. ^24 (F)Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter ^(G)the kingdom of God.” ²⁵ When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished, saying, “Who then can be saved?” ²⁶ But Jesus ^(H)looked at them and said, ^(I)“With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
