25One day as Jesus was teaching people, a man was there who had studied carefully the laws that God gave Moses. He wanted to ask Jesus a difficult question. So he stood up and asked, “Teacher, what shall I do in order to live with God forever?”
25One day a man came to Jesus and tried to get him to say something wrong, so he asked a hard question. He was a man that knew a lot about the Jewish laws. He asked Jesus, “What can I do so that I will live a good life for ever, and never die?”
25And lo! a wise man of the law rose up, tempting him, and saying, Master, what thing shall I do to have everlasting life? (And behold! a man wise in the Law rose up to test him, and asked, Teacher, what should I do to get eternal life?)
