20. Thou knowest the commandments: Thou shalt not kill: Thou shalt not commit adultery: Thou shalt not steal: Thou shalt not bear false witness: Honour thy father and mother.

21. Who said: All these things have I kept from my youth.

22. Which when Jesus had heard, he said to him: Yet one thing is wanting to thee: sell all whatever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

33. And after they have scourged him, they will put him to death; and the third day he shall rise again.

34. And they understood none of these things, and this word was hid from them, and they understood not the things that were said.
