10And he left there and went to the region of Judea and beyond the Jordan, and crowds gathered to him again. And again, as was his custom, he taught them.G2547G450G2547G2064G1519G3725G2449G1223G4008G2446G2532G3793G4848G4314G846G3825G2532G5613G1486G1321G846G38252And Pharisees came up and in order to test him asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?"G2532G5330G4334G1905G846G1487G1832G435G630G1135G3985G8463He answered them, "What did Moses command you?"G1161G611G2036G846G5101G3475G1781G52134They said, "Moses allowed a man to write a certificate of divorce and to send her away."G1161G2036G3475G2010G1125G975G647G2532G6305And Jesus said to them, "Because of your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.G2532G2424G611G2036G846G4314G4641G5216G4641G1125G5213G5026G17856But from the beginning of creation, 'God made them male and female.'G1161G575G746G2937G2316G4160G846G730G2532G23387'Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife,G1752G5127G2641G444G2641G846G3962G2532G3384G2532G4347G4314G846G11358and the two shall become one flesh.' So they are no longer two but one flesh.G2532G1417G2071G1519G3391G4561G5620G1526G3765G1417G235G3391G45619What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate."G3739G3767G2316G4801G5563G3361G444G556310And in the house the disciples asked him again about this matter.G2532G1722G3614G846G3101G1905G846G3825G4012G84611And he said to them, "Whoever divorces his wife and marries another commits adultery against her,G2532G3004G846G3739G1437G630G846G1135G2532G1060G243G3429G1909G84612and if she divorces her husband and marries another, she commits adultery."G2532G1437G1135G630G846G435G2532G1060G243G342913And they were bringing children to him that he might touch them, and the disciples rebuked them.G2532G4374G3813G846G2443G680G846G1161G3101G2008G437414But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, "Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God.G1161G2424G1492G23G2532G2036G846G863G3813G2064G4314G3165G2532G2967G846G3361G1063G5108G2076G932G231615Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it."G281G3004G5213G3739G1209G3362G1209G932G2316G5613G3813G1525G3364G1525G1519G84616And he took them in his arms and blessed them, laying his hands on them.G2532G1723G846G1723G5087G5495G1909G846G2127G84617And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him and asked him, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?"G2532G1607G1519G846G3598G4370G1520G4370G2532G1120G846G1905G846G18G1320G5101G4160G2443G2816G166G222218And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.G1161G2424G2036G846G5101G3004G3165G18G3762G18G1508G1520G231619You know the commandments: 'Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.'"G1492G1785G3431G3361G3431G5407G3361G5407G2813G3361G2813G5576G3361G5576G650G3361G5091G4675G3962G2532G338420And he said to him, "Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth."G1161G611G2036G846G1320G3956G5023G5442G1537G3450G350321And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, "You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."G1161G2424G1689G846G25G846G2532G2036G846G1520G4671G5302G5217G4453G3745G2192G2532G1325G4434G2532G2192G2344G1722G3772G2532G1204G142G4716G190G342722Disheartened by the saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.G1161G4768G1909G3056G565G3076G1063G2192G2258G4183G293323And Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, "How difficult it will be for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God!"G2532G2424G4017G3004G846G3101G4459G1423G2192G5536G1525G1519G932G231624And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said to them again, "Children, how difficult it is to enter the kingdom of God!G1161G3101G2284G1909G846G3056G1161G2424G611G3825G3004G846G5043G4459G1422G2076G3982G1909G5536G1525G1519G932G231625It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God."G2076G2123G2574G1525G1330G1223G5168G4476G2228G4145G1525G1519G932G231626And they were exceedingly astonished, and said to him, "Then who can be saved?"G1161G1605G4057G3004G4314G1438G2532G5101G1410G498227Jesus looked at them and said, "With man it is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God."G1161G2424G1689G846G3004G3844G444G102G235G3756G3844G2316G1063G3844G2316G3956G2076G141528Peter began to say to him, "See, we have left everything and followed you."G2532G4074G756G3004G846G2400G2249G863G3956G2532G190G467129Jesus said, "Truly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,G1161G2424G611G2036G281G3004G5213G2076G3762G3739G863G3614G2228G80G2228G79G2228G3962G2228G3384G2228G1135G2228G5043G2228G68G1700G1752G2532G209830who will not receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions, and in the age to come eternal life.G3362G2983G1542G3568G1722G5129G2540G3614G2532G80G2532G79G2532G3384G2532G5043G2532G68G3326G1375G2532G1722G165G2064G166G222231But many who are first will be last, and the last first."G1161G4183G4413G2071G2078G2532G2078G441332And they were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking ahead of them. And they were amazed, and those who followed were afraid. And taking the twelve again, he began to tell them what was to happen to him,G1161G2258G1722G3598G305G1519G2414G2532G2424G2258G4254G846G2532G2284G2532G190G5399G2532G3880G3825G1427G756G3004G846G3195G4819G84633saying, "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be delivered over to the chief priests and the scribes, and they will condemn him to death and deliver him over to the Gentiles.G3754G2400G305G1519G2414G2532G5207G444G3860G749G2532G1122G2532G2632G846G2288G2532G3860G846G148434And they will mock him and spit on him, and flog him and kill him. And after three days he will rise."G2532G1702G846G2532G3146G846G2532G1716G846G2532G615G846G2532G5154G2250G45035And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to him and said to him, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you."G2532G2385G2532G2491G5207G2199G4365G846G3004G1320G2309G2443G4160G2254G3739G1437G15436And he said to them, "What do you want me to do for you?"G1161G2036G846G5101G2309G3165G4160G521337And they said to him, "Grant us to sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory."G1161G2036G846G1325G2254G2443G2523G1520G1537G4675G1188G2532G1520G1537G4675G2176G1722G4675G139138Jesus said to them, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, or to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?"G1161G2424G2036G846G1492G3756G5101G154G1410G4095G4221G3739G1473G4095G2532G907G908G3739G1473G90739And they said to him, "We are able." And Jesus said to them, "The cup that I drink you will drink, and with the baptism with which I am baptized, you will be baptized,G1161G2036G846G1410G1161G2424G2036G846G4095G3303G4095G4221G3739G1473G4095G2532G908G3739G1473G907G90740but to sit at my right hand or at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared."G1161G2523G1537G3450G1188G2532G1537G3450G2176G2076G3756G1699G1325G235G3739G209041And when the ten heard it, they began to be indignant at James and John.G2532G1176G191G756G23G4012G2385G2532G249142And Jesus called them to him and said to them, "You know that those who are considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.G1161G2424G4341G846G3004G846G1492G3754G1380G757G1484G2634G846G2532G846G3173G2715G84643But it shall not be so among you. But whoever would be great among you must be your servant,G1161G3779G2071G3756G2071G1722G5213G235G3739G1437G2309G1096G3173G1722G5213G2071G5216G124944and whoever would be first among you must be slave of all.G2532G3739G302G5216G2309G1096G4413G2071G1401G395645For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."G1063G2532G5207G444G2064G3756G1247G235G1247G2532G1325G846G5590G3083G473G418346And they came to Jericho. And as he was leaving Jericho with his disciples and a great crowd, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the roadside.G2532G2064G1519G2410G2532G846G1607G575G2410G2532G846G3101G2532G2425G3793G5185G924G5207G5090G2521G3844G3598G431947And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"G2532G191G3754G2076G2424G3480G756G2896G2532G3004G2424G5207G1138G1653G316548And many rebuked him, telling him to be silent. But he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!"G2532G4183G2008G846G2443G4623G1161G2896G3123G4183G5207G1138G1653G316549And Jesus stopped and said, "Call him." And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Take heart. Get up; he is calling you."G2532G2424G2476G2036G846G5455G2532G5455G5185G3004G846G2293G1453G5455G457150And throwing off his cloak, he sprang up and came to Jesus.G1161G577G846G2440G450G2064G4314G242451And Jesus said to him, "What do you want me to do for you?" And the blind man said to him, "Rabbi, let me recover my sight."G2532G2424G611G3004G846G5101G2309G4160G4671G1161G5185G2036G846G4462G2443G30852And Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he recovered his sight and followed him on the way.G1161G2424G2036G846G5217G4675G4102G4982G4571G4982G2532G2112G308G2532G190G2424G1722G3598
