11. But he said unto them, Everyone cannot receive this word, except those unto whom it is given.
12. For there are some eunuchs who were so born from their mother’s womb; and there are some eunuchs who were made eunuchs of men; and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs because of the kingdom of the heavens. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.
13. Then were there brought unto him little children that he should put his hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.
14. But Jesus said, Suffer the little children to come unto me and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of the heavens.
15. And he laid his hands on them and departed from there.
16. And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do that I may have eternal life?
17. And he said unto him, Why dost thou call me good? There is none good but one, that is, God, but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
18. He said unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt not murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
19. Honour thy father and thy mother, and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
20. The young man said unto him, All these things I have kept from my youth up; what do I lack?
21. Jesus said unto him, If thou desire to be perfect, go and sell what thou hast and give it to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come and follow me.
22. But when the young man heard that word, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
23. Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, It is difficult that a rich man shall enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
24. And again I say unto you, It is easier to put a cable through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
25. But his disciples hearing these things were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
26. But Jesus beheld them and said unto them, With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.
27. Then Peter answered and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?
28. And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, to judge the twelve tribes of Israel.
29. And every one that has forsaken houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands for my name’s sake shall receive a hundredfold and shall inherit eternal life.
