Matthew 19:23-30

23And Jesus said to His disciples, Truly I say to you, ait is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24And again I say to you, ait is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” 25And when the disciples heard this, they were very astonished and said, “Then who can be saved?” 26And looking at them Jesus said to them, aWith people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

Many Who Are First Will Be Last

27Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?” 28And Jesus said to them, Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when athe Son of Man will sit on 1His glorious throne, byou also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29And aeveryone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother 1or children or farms for My name’s sake, will receive 2one hundred times as much, and will inherit eternal life. 30aBut many who are first will be last; and the last, first.
