Luke 18:20-43

²⁰Thou knowest the commandments, Thou shalt not slay, Thou shalt not do lechery, Thou shalt not do theft, Thou shalt not say false witnessing, Worship thy father and thy mother. (Thou knowest the commandments, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not do adultery, Thou shalt not do theft, Thou shalt not give false testimony, or Thou shalt not lie, Honour thy father and thy mother.)

²¹Which said (or And he replied), I have kept all these things from my youth.

²²And when this thing was heard, Jesus said to him, Yet one thing faileth to thee; sell thou all (the) things that thou hast, and give to poor men, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, and (pur)sue thou me, or and come, and (pur)sue me, (or and come, and follow me).

²³And when these things were heard, he was sorrowful, for he was full rich.

²⁴And Jesus seeing him made sorry or made sorrowful said, How hard they that have money or riches shall enter into the kingdom of God;

²⁵for it is lighter or forsooth it is easier, (for) a camel to pass through a needle’s eye, than (for) a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

²⁶And they that heard these things said, Who may be made safe? (And they who heard these things said, Then who can be saved?)

²⁷And he said to them, Those things that be impossible with men, be possible with God.

²⁸But Peter said, Lo! we have left all things, and have (pur)sued thee. (But Peter said, Behold! we have left everything, and have followed thee.)

²⁹And he said to him, Truly I say to you (or I tell you the truth), there is no man that shall forsake house, or father and mother, or brethren, or wife, or children, or fields, for the realm of God (or for the Kingdom of God),

³⁰and shall not receive many more things in this time, and in the world to coming everlasting life, or and in the world to come everlasting life, (or and in the world to come eternal life).

³¹And Jesus took his twelve disciples, and said to them, Lo! we go up to Jerusalem, and (there) all things shall be ended, that be written by the prophets of man’s Son (or which be written by the prophets about man’s Son).

³²For he shall be betrayed to heathen men (or For he shall be handed over to the Gentiles), and he shall be scorned, and scourged, and bespat;

³³and after that they have scourged him, they shall slay him, and the third day he shall rise again.

³⁴And they understood nothing of these; and this word was hid from them (or and the meaning was hidden from them), and they understood not those things that were said.

³⁵But it was done, when Jesus came nigh to Jericho (or when Jesus approached Jericho), a blind man sat beside the way, and begged.

³⁶And when he heard the people passing (by), he asked, what this was.

³⁷And they said to him, that Jesus of Nazareth passed (by).

³⁸And he cried, and said, Jesus, the son of David, have mercy on me.

³⁹And they that went before, blamed him, that he should be still, (or And they who went ahead of Jesus, rebuked him, saying that he should be quiet); but he cried much the more or soothly he cried much more, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.

⁴⁰And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought forth to him. And when he came nigh, he asked him, and said,

⁴¹What wilt thou that I shall do to thee? (or What desirest thou that I shall do for thee?) And he said, Lord, that I see.

⁴²And Jesus said to him, Behold; thy faith hath made thee safe, (or Behold; thy faith hath saved thee, or thy faith hath healed thee).

⁴³And anon he saw, and (pur)sued him, and magnified God. And all the people, as it saw, gave praising to God. (And at once he saw, and followed him, and praised God. And all the people, who saw it happen, also praised God.)
