40:019:007 They say unto him, Why did Moses then command
to give a
writing
of divorcement, and to put her away?
40:019:008 He saith unto them, Moses because of the
hardness of your
hearts
suffered you to put away your wives: but from
the
beginning
it was not so.
40:019:009 And I say unto you, Whosoever shall put
away his wife, except
it
be for fornication, and shall marry another, committeth
adultery:
and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit
adultery.
40:019:010 His disciples say unto him, If the case
of the man be so with
his
wife, it is not good to marry.
40:019:011 But he said unto them, All men cannot receive
this saying,
save
they to whom it is given.
40:019:012 For there are some eunuchs, which were
so born from their
mother’s
womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made
eunuchs
of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made
themselves
eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven’s sake.
He that
is
able to receive it, let him receive it.
40:019:013 Then were there brought unto him little
children, that he
should
put his hands on them, and pray: and the disciples
rebuked
them.
40:019:014 But Jesus said, Suffer little children,
and forbid them not,
to
come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.
40:019:015 And he laid his hands on them, and departed thence.
40:019:016 And, behold, one came and said unto him,
Good Master, what
good
thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
40:019:017 And he said unto him, Why callest thou
me good? there is none
good
but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter
into life,
keep
the commandments.
40:019:018 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said,
Thou shalt do no murder,
Thou
shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou
shalt
not bear false witness,
40:019:019 Honour thy father and thy mother:
and, Thou shalt love thy
neighbour
as thyself.
40:019:020 The young man saith unto him, All these
things have I kept
from
my youth up: what lack I yet?
40:019:021 Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect,
go and sell that
thou
hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure
in
heaven: and come and follow me.
40:019:022 But when the young man heard that saying,
he went away
sorrowful:
for he had great possessions.
40:019:023 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily
I say unto you,
That
a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
40:019:024 And again I say unto you, It is easier
for a camel to go
through
the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into
the
kingdom of God.
