Mark 10:17-23
The Rich Young Ruler
17aAnd as He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and bknelt before Him, and began asking Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do to cinherit eternal life?” 18And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. 19“You know the commandments, ‘aDo not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” 20And he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept aall these things from my youth up.” 21And looking at him, Jesus loved him and said to him, “One thing you lack: go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have atreasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22But at these words 1he was saddened, and he went away grieving, for he was one who owned much property.
23And Jesus, looking around, *said to His disciples, “aHow hard it will be for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God!”
