Luke 18:21-28 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

21. “I have kept all these from my youth,” he said.

22. When Jesus heard this, He told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell all that you have and distribute it to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow Me.”

23. After he heard this, he became extremely sad, because he was very rich.

24. Seeing that he became sad, Jesus said, “How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!

25. For 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.”

26. Those who heard this asked, “Then who can be saved? ”

27. He replied, “What is impossible with men is possible with God.”

28. Then Peter said, “Look, we have left what we had and followed You.”
