Mark 10 (ASV)
[1] And he arose from thence and cometh into the borders of Judaea and beyond the Jordan: and multitudes come together unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
[2] And there came unto him Pharisees, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? trying him.
[3] And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
[4] And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
[5] But Jesus said unto them, For your hardness of heart he wrote you this commandment.
[6] But from the beginning of the creation, Male and female made he them.
[7] For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife;
[8] and the two shall become one flesh: so that they are no more two, but one flesh.
[9] What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
[10] And in the house the disciples asked him again of this matter.
[11] And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her:
[12] and if she herself shall put away her husband, and marry another, she committeth adultery.
[13] And they were bringing unto him little children, that he should touch them: and the disciples rebuked them.
[14] But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me; forbid them not: for to such belongeth the kingdom of God.
[15] Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall in no wise enter therein.
[16] And he took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands upon them.
[17] And as he was going forth into the way, there ran one to him, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?
[18] And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good save one, even God.
[19] Thou knowest the commandments, Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor thy father and mother.
[20] And he said unto him, Teacher, all these things have I observed from my youth.
[21] And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.
[22] But his countenance fell at the saying, and he went away sorrowful: for he was one that had great possessions.
[23] And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
[24] And the disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
[25] 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.
[26] And they were astonished exceedingly, saying unto him, Then who can be saved?
[27] Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for all things are possible with God.
[28] Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.
[29] Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or lands, for my sake, and for the gospel’s sake,
[30] but he shall receive a hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
[31] But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
[32] And they were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going before them: and they were amazed; and they that followed were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were to happen unto him,
[33] saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles:
[34] and they shall mock him, and shall spit upon him, and shall scourge him, and shall kill him; and after three days he shall rise again.
[35] And there come near unto him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying unto him, Teacher, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall ask of thee.
[36] And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
[37] And they said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on thy left hand, in thy glory.
[38] But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I drink? or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
[39] And they said unto him, We are able. And Jesus said unto them, The cup that I drink ye shall drink; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
[40] but to sit on my right hand or on my left hand is not mine to give; but it is for them for whom it hath been prepared.
[41] And when the ten heard it, they began to be moved with indignation concerning James and John.
[42] And Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they who are accounted to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great ones exercise authority over them.
[43] But it is not so among you: but whosoever would become great among you, shall be your minister;
[44] and whosoever would be first among you, shall be servant of all.
[45] For the Son of man also came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
[46] And they come to Jericho: and as he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the way side.
[47] And when he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
[48] And many rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried out the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
[49] And Jesus stood still, and said, Call ye him. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good cheer: rise, he calleth thee.
[50] And he, casting away his garment, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
[51] And Jesus answered him, and said, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? And the blind man said unto him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight.
[52] And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And straightway he received his sight, and followed him in the way.

Mark 10 (KJVS)
[1] And G2547 he arose G450 (Aor2ActPtc) from thence G2547, and cometh G2064 (PresMidPasDepInd) into G1519 the coasts G3725 of Judaea G2449 by G1223 the farther side G4008 of Jordan G2446: and G2532 the people G3793 resort G4848 (PresMidPasDepInd) unto G4314 him G846 again G3825; and G2532, as G5613 he was wont G1486 (PlupfActInd), he taught G1321 (ImpfActInd) them G846 again G3825.
[2] And G2532 the Pharisees G5330 came to him G4334 (Aor2ActPtc), and asked G1905 (AorActInd) him G846, Is it G1487 lawful G1832 (PresInd) for a man G435 to put away G630 (AorActInf) [his] wife G1135? tempting G3985 (PresActPtc) him G846.
[3] And G1161 he answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, What G5101 did Moses G3475 command G1781 (AorMidDepInd) you G5213?
[4] And G1161 they said G2036 (Aor2ActInd), Moses G3475 suffered G2010 (AorActInd) to write G1125 (AorActInf) a bill G975 of divorcement G647, and G2532 to put [her] away G630 (AorActInf).
[5] And G2532 Jesus G2424 answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, For G4314 the hardness G4641 of your G5216 heart G4641 he wrote G1125 (AorActInd) you G5213 this G5026 precept G1785.
[6] But G1161 from G575 the beginning G746 of the creation G2937 God G2316 made G4160 (AorActInd) them G846 male G730 and G2532 female G2338.
[7] For this cause G1752 G5127 shall G2641 a man G444 leave G2641 (FutActInd) his G846 father G3962 and G2532 mother G3384, and G2532 cleave G4347 (FutPasInd) to G4314 his G846 wife G1135;
[8] And G2532 they twain G1417 shall be G2071 (FutInd) one G1519 G3391 flesh G4561: so then G5620 they are G1526 (PresInd) no more G3765 twain G1417, but G235 one G3391 flesh G4561.
[9] What G3739 therefore G3767 God G2316 hath joined together G4801 (AorActInd), let G5563 not G3361 man G444 put asunder G5563 (PresActImpr).
[10] And G2532 in G1722 the house G3614 his G846 disciples G3101 asked G1905 (AorActInd) him G846 again G3825 of G4012 the same G846 [matter].
[11] And G2532 he saith G3004 (PresActInd) unto them G846, Whosoever G3739 G1437 shall put away G630 (AorActSubj) his G846 wife G1135, and G2532 marry G1060 (AorActSubj) another G243, committeth adultery G3429 (PresMidPasDepInd) against G1909 her G846.
[12] And G2532 if G1437 a woman G1135 shall put away G630 (AorActSubj) her G846 husband G435, and G2532 be married G1060 (AorPasSubj) to another G243, she committeth adultery G3429 (PresMidPasDepInd).
[13] And G2532 they brought G4374 (ImpfActInd) young children G3813 to him G846, that G2443 he should touch G680 (AorMidSubj) them G846: and G1161 [his] disciples G3101 rebuked G2008 (ImpfActInd) those that brought G4374 (PresActPtc) [them].
[14] But G1161 when Jesus G2424 saw G1492 (Aor2ActPtc) [it], he was much displeased G23 (AorActInd), and G2532 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, Suffer G863 (Aor2ActImpr) the little children G3813 to come G2064 (PresMidPasDepInf) unto G4314 me G3165, and G2532 forbid G2967 (PresActImpr) them G846 not G3361: for G1063 of such G5108 is G2076 (PresInd) the kingdom G932 of God G2316.
[15] Verily G281 I say G3004 (PresActInd) unto you G5213, Whosoever G3739 shall G1209 not G3362 receive G1209 (AorMidDepSubj) the kingdom G932 of God G2316 as G5613 a little child G3813, he shall G1525 not G3364 enter G1525 (Aor2ActSubj) therein G1519 G846.
[16] And G2532 he took G1723 them G846 up in his arms G1723 (AorMidDepPtc), put G5087 (PresActPtc) [his] hands G5495 upon G1909 them G846, and blessed G2127 (ImpfActInd) them G846.
[17] And G2532 when he was gone forth G1607 (PresMidPasDepPtc) into G1519 the way G846 G3598, there came G4370 one G1520 running G4370 (Aor2ActPtc), and G2532 kneeled G1120 (AorActPtc) to him G846, and asked G1905 (ImpfActInd) him G846, Good G18 Master G1320, what G5101 shall I do G4160 (AorActSubj) that G2443 I may inherit G2816 (AorActSubj) eternal G166 life G2222?
[18] And G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, Why G5101 callest thou G3004 (PresActInd) me G3165 good G18? [there is] none G3762 good G18 but G1508 one G1520, [that is], God G2316.
[19] Thou knowest G1492 (PerfActInd) the commandments G1785, Do G3431 not G3361 commit adultery G3431 (AorActSubj), Do G5407 not G3361 kill G5407 (AorActSubj), Do G2813 not G3361 steal G2813 (AorActSubj), Do G5576 not G3361 bear false witness G5576 (AorActSubj), Defraud G650 (AorActSubj) not G3361, Honour G5091 (PresActImpr) thy G4675 father G3962 and G2532 mother G3384.
[20] And G1161 he answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, Master G1320, all G3956 these G5023 have I observed G5442 (AorMidInd) from G1537 my G3450 youth G3503.
[21] Then G1161 Jesus G2424 beholding G1689 (AorActPtc) him G846 loved G25 (AorActInd) him G846, and G2532 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, One thing G1520 thou G4671 lackest G5302 (PresActInd): go thy way G5217 (PresActImpr), sell G4453 (AorActImpr) whatsoever G3745 thou hast G2192 (PresActInd), and G2532 give G1325 (Aor2ActImpr) to the poor G4434, and G2532 thou shalt have G2192 (FutActInd) treasure G2344 in G1722 heaven G3772: and G2532 come G1204 (Impr), take up G142 (AorActPtc) the cross G4716, and follow G190 (PresActImpr) me G3427.
[22] And G1161 he was sad G4768 (AorActPtc) at G1909 that saying G3056, and went away G565 (Aor2ActInd) grieved G3076 (PresPasPtc): for G1063 he had G2192 (PresActPtc) G2258 (ImpfInd) great G4183 possessions G2933.
[23] And G2532 Jesus G2424 looked round about G4017 (AorMidPtc), and saith G3004 (PresActInd) unto his G846 disciples G3101, How G4459 hardly G1423 shall they that have G2192 (PresActPtc) riches G5536 enter G1525 (FutMidDepInd) into G1519 the kingdom G932 of God G2316!
[24] And G1161 the disciples G3101 were astonished G2284 (ImpfPasInd) at G1909 his G846 words G3056. But G1161 Jesus G2424 answereth G611 (AorPasDepPtc) again G3825, and saith G3004 (PresActInd) unto them G846, Children G5043, how G4459 hard G1422 is it G2076 (PresInd) for them that trust G3982 (Perf2ActPtc) in G1909 riches G5536 to enter G1525 (Aor2ActInf) into G1519 the kingdom G932 of God G2316!
[25] It is G2076 (PresInd) easier G2123 for a camel G2574 to go G1525 (Aor2ActInf) G1330 (Aor2ActInf) through G1223 the eye G5168 of a needle G4476, than G2228 for a rich man G4145 to enter G1525 (Aor2ActInf) into G1519 the kingdom G932 of God G2316.
[26] And G1161 they were astonished G1605 (ImpfPasInd) out of measure G4057, saying G3004 (PresActPtc) among G4314 themselves G1438, G2532 Who G5101 then can G1410 (PresMidPasDepInd) be saved G4982 (AorPasInf)?
[27] And G1161 Jesus G2424 looking upon G1689 (AorActPtc) them G846 saith G3004 (PresActInd), With G3844 men G444 [it is] impossible G102, but G235 not G3756 with G3844 God G2316: for G1063 with G3844 God G2316 all things G3956 are G2076 (PresInd) possible G1415.
[28] Then G2532 Peter G4074 began G756 (AorMidDepInd) to say G3004 (PresActInf) unto him G846, Lo G2400 (Aor2ActImpr), we G2249 have left G863 (AorActInd) all G3956, and G2532 have followed G190 (AorActInd) thee G4671.
[29] And G1161 Jesus G2424 answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G2036 (Aor2ActInd), Verily G281 I say G3004 (PresActInd) unto you G5213, There is G2076 (PresInd) no man G3762 that G3739 hath left G863 (AorActInd) house G3614, or G2228 brethren G80, or G2228 sisters G79, or G2228 father G3962, or G2228 mother G3384, or G2228 wife G1135, or G2228 children G5043, or G2228 lands G68, for my G1700 sake G1752, and G2532 the gospel’s G2098,
[30] But G3362 he shall receive G2983 (Aor2ActSubj) an hundredfold G1542 now G3568 in G1722 this G5129 time G2540, houses G3614, and G2532 brethren G80, and G2532 sisters G79, and G2532 mothers G3384, and G2532 children G5043, and G2532 lands G68, with G3326 persecutions G1375; and G2532 in G1722 the world G165 to come G2064 (PresMidPasDepPtc) eternal G166 life G2222.
[31] But G1161 many G4183 [that are] first G4413 shall be G2071 (FutInd) last G2078; and G2532 the last G2078 first G4413.
[32] And G1161 they were G2258 (ImpfInd) in G1722 the way G3598 going up G305 (PresActPtc) to G1519 Jerusalem G2414; and G2532 Jesus G2424 went G2258 (ImpfInd) before G4254 (PresActPtc) them G846: and G2532 they were amazed G2284 (ImpfPasInd); and G2532 as they followed G190 (PresActPtc), they were afraid G5399 (ImpfMidPasDepInd). And G2532 he took G3880 (Aor2ActPtc) again G3825 the twelve G1427, and began G756 (AorMidDepInd) to tell G3004 (PresActInf) them G846 what things should G3195 (PresActPtc) happen G4819 (PresActInf) unto him G846,
[33] [Saying], G3754 Behold G2400 (Aor2ActImpr), we go up G305 (PresActInd) to G1519 Jerusalem G2414; and G2532 the Son G5207 of man G444 shall be delivered G3860 (FutPasInd) unto the chief priests G749, and G2532 unto the scribes G1122; and G2532 they shall condemn G2632 (FutActInd) him G846 to death G2288, and G2532 shall deliver G3860 (FutActInd) him G846 to the Gentiles G1484:
[34] And G2532 they shall mock G1702 (FutActInd) him G846, and G2532 shall scourge G3146 (FutActInd) him G846, and G2532 shall spit upon G1716 (FutActInd) him G846, and G2532 shall kill G615 (FutActInd) him G846: and G2532 the third G5154 day G2250 he shall rise again G450 (FutMidInd).
[35] And G2532 James G2385 and G2532 John G2491, the sons G5207 of Zebedee G2199, come G4365 (PresMidPasDepInd) unto him G846, saying G3004 (PresActPtc), Master G1320, we would G2309 (PresActInd) that G2443 thou shouldest do G4160 (AorActSubj) for us G2254 whatsoever G3739 G1437 we shall desire G154 (AorActSubj).
[36] And G1161 he said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, What G5101 would G2309 (PresActInd) ye that I G3165 should do G4160 (AorActInf) for you G5213?
[37] G1161 They said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, Grant G1325 (Aor2ActImpr) unto us G2254 that G2443 we may sit G2523 (AorActSubj), one G1520 on G1537 thy G4675 right hand G1188, and G2532 the other G1520 on G1537 thy G4675 left hand G2176, in G1722 thy G4675 glory G1391.
[38] But G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, Ye know G1492 (PerfActInd) not G3756 what G5101 ye ask G154 (PresMidInd): can ye G1410 (PresMidPasDepInd) drink G4095 (Aor2ActInf) of the cup G4221 that G3739 I G1473 drink of G4095 (PresActInd)? and G2532 be baptized G907 (PresPasInd) with the baptism G908 that G3739 I G1473 am baptized with G907 (AorPasInf)?
[39] And G1161 they said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, We can G1410 (PresMidPasDepInd). And G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto them G846, Ye shall G4095 indeed G3303 drink G4095 (PresActInd) of the cup G4221 that G3739 I G1473 drink of G4095 (FutMidDepInd); and G2532 with the baptism G908 that G3739 I G1473 am baptized withal G907 (PresPasInd) shall ye be baptized G907 (FutPasInd):
[40] But G1161 to sit G2523 (AorActInf) on G1537 my G3450 right hand G1188 and G2532 on G1537 my G3450 left hand G2176 is G2076 (PresInd) not G3756 mine G1699 to give G1325 (Aor2ActInf); but G235 [it shall be given to them] for whom G3739 it is prepared G2090 (PerfPasInd).
[41] And G2532 when the ten G1176 heard G191 (AorActPtc) [it], they began G756 (AorMidDepInd) to be much displeased G23 (PresActInf) with G4012 James G2385 and G2532 John G2491.
[42] But G1161 Jesus G2424 called G4341 (AorMidDepPtc) them G846 [to him], and saith G3004 (PresActInd) unto them G846, Ye know G1492 (PerfActInd) that G3754 they which are accounted G1380 (PresActPtc) to rule G757 (PresActInf) over the Gentiles G1484 exercise lordship G2634 (PresActInd) over them G846; and G2532 their G846 great ones G3173 exercise authority G2715 (PresActInd) upon them G846.
[43] But G1161 so G3779 shall it G2071 not G3756 be G2071 (FutInd) among G1722 you G5213: but G235 whosoever G3739 G1437 will G2309 (PresActSubj) be G1096 (Aor2MidDepInf) great G3173 among G1722 you G5213, shall be G2071 (FutInd) your G5216 minister G1249:
[44] And G2532 whosoever G3739 G302 of you G5216 will G2309 (PresActSubj) be G1096 (Aor2MidDepInf) the chiefest G4413, shall be G2071 (FutInd) servant G1401 of all G3956.
[45] For G1063 even G2532 the Son G5207 of man G444 came G2064 (Aor2ActInd) not G3756 to be ministered unto G1247 (AorPasInf), but G235 to minister G1247 (AorActInf), and G2532 to give G1325 (Aor2ActInf) his G846 life G5590 a ransom G3083 for G473 many G4183.
[46] And G2532 they came G2064 (PresMidPasDepInd) to G1519 Jericho G2410: and G2532 as he G846 went G1607 (PresMidPasDepPtc) out of G575 Jericho G2410 with G2532 his G846 disciples G3101 and G2532 a great G2425 number of people G3793, blind G5185 Bartimaeus G924, the son G5207 of Timaeus G5090, sat G2521 (ImpfMidPasDepInd) by G3844 the highway side G3598 begging G4319 (PresActPtc).
[47] And G2532 when he heard G191 (AorActPtc) that G3754 it was G2076 (PresInd) Jesus G2424 of Nazareth G3480, he began G756 (AorMidDepInd) to cry out G2896 (PresActInf), and G2532 say G3004 (PresActInf), Jesus G2424, [thou] Son G5207 of David G1138, have mercy G1653 (AorActImpr) on me G3165.
[48] And G2532 many G4183 charged G2008 (ImpfActInd) him G846 that G2443 he should hold his peace G4623 (AorActSubj): but G1161 he cried G2896 (ImpfActInd) the more G3123 a great deal G4183, [Thou] Son G5207 of David G1138, have mercy G1653 (AorActImpr) on me G3165.
[49] And G2532 Jesus G2424 stood still G2476 (Aor2ActPtc), and commanded G2036 (Aor2ActInd) him G846 to be called G5455 (AorPasInf). And G2532 they call G5455 (PresActInd) the blind man G5185, saying G3004 (PresActPtc) unto him G846, Be of good comfort G2293 (PresActImpr), rise G1453 (AorMidImpr); he calleth G5455 (PresActInd) thee G4571.
[50] And G1161 he, casting away G577 (Aor2ActPtc) his G846 garment G2440, rose G450 (Aor2ActPtc), and came G2064 (Aor2ActInd) to G4314 Jesus G2424.
[51] And G2532 Jesus G2424 answered G611 (AorPasDepPtc) and said G3004 (PresActInd) unto him G846, What G5101 wilt G2309 (PresActInd) thou that I should do G4160 (AorActSubj) unto thee G4671? G1161 The blind man G5185 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, Lord G4462, that G2443 I might receive my sight G308 (AorActSubj).
[52] And G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 (Aor2ActInd) unto him G846, Go thy way G5217 (PresActImpr); thy G4675 faith G4102 hath made G4982 thee G4571 whole G4982 (PerfActInd). And G2532 immediately G2112 he received his sight G308 (AorActInd), and G2532 followed G190 (ImpfActInd) Jesus G2424 in G1722 the way G3598.
Young’s Literal Translation
Mark 10 (YLT)
[1] And having risen thence, he doth come to the coasts of Judea, through the other side of the Jordan, and again do multitudes come together unto him, and, as he had been accustomed, again he was teaching them.
[2] And the Pharisees, having come near, questioned him, if it is lawful for a husband to put away a wife, tempting him,
[3] and he answering said to them, ‘What did Moses command you?’
[4] and they said, ‘Moses suffered to write a bill of divorce, and to put away.’
[5] And Jesus answering said to them, ‘For the stiffness of your heart he wrote you this command,
[6] but from the beginning of the creation, a male and a female God did make them;
[7] on this account shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife,
[8] and they shall be-the two-for one flesh; so that they are no more two, but one flesh;
[9] what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.’
[10] And in the house again his disciples of the same thing questioned him,
[11] and he saith to them, ‘Whoever may put away his wife, and may marry another, doth commit adultery against her;
[12] and if a woman may put away her husband, and is married to another, she committeth adultery.’
[13] And they were bringing to him children, that he might touch them, and the disciples were rebuking those bringing them,
[14] and Jesus having seen, was much displeased, and he said to them, ‘Suffer the children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the reign of God;
[15] verily I say to you, whoever may not receive the reign of God, as a child-he may not enter into it;’
[16] and having taken them in his arms, having put his hands upon them, he was blessing them.
[17] And as he is going forth into the way, one having run and having kneeled to him, was questioning him, ‘Good teacher, what may I do, that life age-during I may inherit?’
[18] And Jesus said to him, ‘Why me dost thou call good? no one is good except One-God;
[19] the commands thou hast known: Thou mayest not commit adultery, Thou mayest do no murder, Thou mayest not steal, Thou mayest not bear false witness, Thou mayest not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.’
[20] And he answering said to him, ‘Teacher, all these did I keep from my youth.’
[21] And Jesus having looked upon him, did love him, and said to him, ‘One thing thou dost lack; go away, whatever thou hast-sell, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, be following me, having taken up the cross.’
[22] And he-gloomy at the word-went away sorrowing, for he was having many possessions.
[23] And Jesus having looked round, saith to his disciples, ‘How hardly shall they who have riches enter into the reign of God!’
[24] And the disciples were astonished at his words, and Jesus again answering saith to them, ‘Children, how hard is it to those trusting on the riches to enter into the reign of God!
[25] It is easier for a camel through the eye of the needle to enter, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.’
[26] And they were astonished beyond measure, saying unto themselves, ‘And who is able to be saved?’
[27] And Jesus, having looked upon them, saith, ‘With men it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.’
[28] And Peter began to say to him, ‘Lo, we left all, and we followed thee.’
[29] And Jesus answering said, ‘Verily I say to you, there is no one who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my sake, and for the good news’,
[30] who may not receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and fields, with persecutions, and in the age that is coming, life age-during;
[31] and many first shall be last, and the last first.’
[32] And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going before them, and they were amazed, and following they were afraid. And having again taken the twelve, he began to tell them the things about to happen to him,
[33] -‘Lo, we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man shall be delivered to the chief priests, and to the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the nations,
[34] and they shall mock him, and scourge him, and spit on him, and kill him, and the third day he shall rise again.’
[35] And there come near to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, ‘Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, thou mayest do for us;’
[36] and he said to them, ‘What do ye wish me to do for you?’
[37] and they said to him, ‘Grant to us that, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, we may sit in thy glory;’
[38] and Jesus said to them, ‘Ye have not known what ye ask; are ye able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized with-to be baptized?’
[39] And they said to him, ‘We are able;’ and Jesus said to them, ‘Of the cup indeed that I drink of, ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with, ye shall be baptized;
[40] but to sit on my right and on my left, is not mine to give, but-to those for whom it hath been prepared.’
[41] And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,
[42] but Jesus having called them near, saith to them, ‘Ye have known that they who are considered to rule the nations do exercise lordship over them, and their great ones do exercise authority upon them;
[43] but not so shall it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he shall be your minister,
[44] and whoever of you may will to become first, he shall be servant of all;
[45] for even the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.’
[46] And they come to Jericho, and as he is going forth from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, a son of Timaeus-Bartimaeus the blind-was sitting beside the way begging,
[47] and having heard that it is Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and to say, ‘The Son of David-Jesus! deal kindly with me;’
[48] and many were rebuking him, that he might keep silent, but the more abundantly he cried out, ‘Son of David, deal kindly with me.’
[49] And Jesus having stood, he commanded him to be called, and they call the blind man, saying to him, ‘Take courage, rise, he doth call thee;’
[50] and he, having cast away his garment, having risen, did come unto Jesus.
[51] And answering, Jesus saith to him, ‘What wilt thou I may do to thee?’ and the blind man said to him, ‘Rabboni, that I may see again;’
[52] and Jesus said to him, ‘Go, thy faith hath saved thee:’ and immediately he saw again, and was following Jesus in the way.
