¹⁷ Which saith to him, What askest thou me of good thing? There is one good God [Which said to him, What askest thou me of good thing? One is good God]. But if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.

¹⁸ He saith to him, Which? And Jesus said, Thou shalt not do manslaying, thou shalt not do adultery, thou shalt not do theft, thou shalt not say false witnessing;

¹⁹ worship thy father and thy mother [honour thou thy father and thy mother], and, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

²⁰ The young man saith to him, I have kept all these things from my youth, what yet faileth to me?

²¹ Jesus saith to him, If thou wilt be perfect, go, and sell all things that thou hast, and give to poor men, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, and follow me.

²² And when the young man had heard these words, he went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions.
