Luke 18:20-43

²⁰Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honor thy father and thy mother.

²¹And he said, All these have I kept from my youth.

²²Now when Jesus heard these things, he said to him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

²³And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful: for he was very rich.

²⁴And when Jesus saw that he was very sorrowful, he said, How hardly will they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

²⁵For it is easier for a camel to go through a needle's eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

²⁶And they that heard it , said, Who then can be saved?

²⁷Then he said, The things which are impossible with men, are possible with God.

²⁸Then Peter said, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.

²⁹And he said to them, Verily I say to you, there is no man that hath left house, or parents, or brethren, or wife, or children for the sake of the kingdom of God,

³⁰Who shall not receive manifold more in this present time, and in the world to come life everlasting.

³¹Then he took the twelve, and said to them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.

³²For he will be delivered to the Gentiles, and will be mocked, and spitefully treated, and spitted on;

³³And they will scourge him , and put him to death: and the third day he will rise again.

³⁴And they understood none of these things: and this saying was hid from them, neither knew they the things which were spoken.

³⁵And it came to pass, that as he had come nigh to Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging;

³⁶And hearing the multitude passing by, he asked what it meant.

³⁷And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by.

³⁸And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.

³⁹And they who went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

⁴⁰And Jesus stood and commanded him to be brought to him: and when he had come near, he asked him,

⁴¹Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do to thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.

⁴²And Jesus said to him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

⁴³And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it , gave praise to God.
