Luke 18:19-34
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 18
19But Jesus said to him, 'Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. 20You know the commandments, ‘DO NOT COMMIT ADULTERY, DO NOT MURDER, DO NOT STEAL, DO NOT GIVE FALSE TESTIMONY, HONOR YOUR FATHER AND MOTHER.’?' 21And he said, 'All these things I have kept since my youth.' 22Now when Jesus heard this, He said to him, 'One thing you still lack; sell all that you possess and distribute the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.' 23But when he had heard these things, he became very sad, for he was extremely wealthy. 24And Jesus looked at him and said, 'How hard it is for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God! 25For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God!' 26Those who heard Him said, 'And so who can be saved?' 27But He said, 'The things that are impossible with people are possible with God.'
28Peter said, 'Behold, we have left our own homes and followed You.'
29And He said to them, 'Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house, or wife, or brothers, or parents, or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,
30who will not receive many times as much at this time, and in the age to come, eternal life.'
31Now He took the twelve aside and said to them, 'Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all the things that have been written through the prophets about the Son of Man will be accomplished.
32For He will be handed over to the Gentiles, and will be ridiculed, and abused, and spit upon,
33and after they have flogged Him, they will kill Him; and on the third day He will rise.'
34The disciples understood none of these things, and the meaning of this statement was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend the things that were said.
King James Version
Chapter 18
19And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good none is good, save one, that is, God. 20Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother. 21And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up. 22Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. 23And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.
24And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
25For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved?
27And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.
28Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.
29And he said unto them, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children, for the kingdom of God's sake,
30Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.
31Then he took unto him the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.
32For he shall be delivered unto the Gentiles, and shall be mocked, and spitefully entreated, and spitted on:
33And they shall scourge him, and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
34And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.

Chapter 18
19"Why do you call me good?" Jesus asked him. "No one is good except God alone. 20You know the commandments: Do not commit adultery; do not murder; do not steal; do not bear false witness; honor your father and mother."
24Seeing that he became sad, Jesus said, "How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!
25For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God."
29So he said to them, "Truly I tell you, there is no one who has left a house, wife or brothers or sisters, parents or children because of the kingdom of God,
30who will not receive many times more at this time, and eternal life in the age to come."
31Then he took the Twelve aside and told them, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem. Everything that is written through the prophets about the Son of Man will be accomplished.
32For he will be handed over to the Gentiles, and he will be mocked, insulted, spit on;
33and after they flog him, they will kill him, and he will rise on the third day."
New Living Translation
Chapter 18
19Why do you call me good?' Jesus asked him. 'Only God is truly good. 20But to answer your question, you know the commandments: ‘You must not commit adultery. You must not murder. You must not steal. You must not testify falsely. Honor your father and mother.’ '
24When Jesus saw this, he said, 'How hard it is for the rich to enter the Kingdom of God!
25In fact, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God!'
29Yes,' Jesus replied, 'and I assure you that everyone who has given up house or wife or brothers or parents or children, for the sake of the Kingdom of God,
30will be repaid many times over in this life, and will have eternal life in the world to come.'
31Taking the twelve disciples aside, Jesus said, 'Listen, we’re going up to Jerusalem, where all the predictions of the prophets concerning the Son of Man will come true.
32He will be handed over to the Romans, and he will be mocked, treated shamefully, and spit upon.
33They will flog him with a whip and kill him, but on the third day he will rise again.'

New International Version
Chapter 18
19"Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good—except God alone. 20You know the commandments: ‘You shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, honor your father and mother.’ "
23When he heard this, he became very sad, because he was very wealthy.
24Jesus looked at him and said, "How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!
25Indeed, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God."
29"Truly I tell you," Jesus said to them, "no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God
30will fail to receive many times as much in this age, and in the age to come eternal life."
31Jesus took the Twelve aside and told them, "We are going up to Jerusalem, and everything that is written by the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.
32He will be delivered over to the Gentiles. They will mock him, insult him and spit on him;
33they will flog him and kill him. On the third day he will rise again."
New King James Version
Chapter 18
19So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God. 20You know the commandments: ‘Do not commit adultery,’ ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not bear false witness,’ ‘Honor your father and your mother.’ ”
24And when Jesus saw that he became very sorrowful, He said, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!
25For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
29So He said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or parents or brothers or wife or children, for the sake of the kingdom of God,
30who shall not receive many times more in this present time, and in the age to come eternal life.”
31Then He took the twelve aside and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be accomplished.
32For He will be delivered to the Gentiles and will be mocked and insulted and spit upon.
33They will scourge Him and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again.”
