< Matthew 19 >
1 And it came to pass when finished Jesus words these, He withdrew from Galilee and came to the region of Judea beyond the Jordan.
2 And followed Him crowds great, and He healed them there.
3 And came to Him (*k*) Pharisees testing Him and saying (to him: *k*) If is it lawful for a man to divorce the a wife of him for every cause?
4 Which now answering He said (to them: *k*) Surely you have read that the [One] (created *N(K)O*) from [the] beginning male and female made them?
5 and said; On account of this will leave a man the father and the mother and (will be joined with *N(k)O*) the wife of him, and will become the two into flesh one’
6 so that no longer no longer are they two but flesh one. What therefore God united together, man not should separate.
7 They say to Him; Why then Moses did command to give a roll of divorce and to send away her?
8 He says to them that Moses in view of the hardness of heart of you allowed you to divorce the wives of you; from [the] beginning however not was [it] this way.
9 I say now to you: that who[ever] maybe may divorce the wife of him (only *k*) except for sexual immorality and shall marry another, commits adultery. (and which divorced having married commits adultery. *KO*)
10 Say to Him the disciples of Him: If this is the case of the man with the wife, not it is better to marry.
11 And He said to them; Not all receive word this but only [those] to whom it has been given.
12 There are for eunuchs who from [the] womb of [their] mother were born thus, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who made eunuchs of themselves for the sake of the kingdom of the heavens. The [one] being able to receive [it] he should receive [it].
13 Then (were brought *N(k)O*) to Him little children that the hands He may lay on them and He may pray; however the disciples rebuked them.
14 And Jesus said; do permit the little children and not do forbid them to come to Me; of the for of such kind is the kingdom of the heavens.
15 And having laid the hands upon them He departed from there.
16 And behold one having come to Him said: Teacher (good *K*) what good [thing] shall I do that (I may have *N(k)O*) life eternal? (aiōnios )
17 And He said to him; Why Me (you ask *N(k)O*) (about what is *no*) (good? *N(k)O*) (One *N(K)O*) (is *no*) good (only except one God. *K*) If however you desire into life to enter, (do keep *NK(o)*) the commandments.
18 He says to him; Which [commandments]? And Jesus (was speaking; *NK(o)*) Not will you murder, not will you commit adultery, not will you steal, not will you bear false witness,
19 do honor the father (of you *k*) and the mother, and you will love the neighbour of you as yourself.’
20 Says to him the young man; All these (I have kept *N(k)O*) (from youth of me *K*) What yet do I lack?
21 Was saying to him Jesus; If you desire perfect to be, do go do sell of you possessions and do give (to the *no*) poor; and you will have treasure in ([the] heavens, *N(k)O*) and come do follow Me.
22 Having heard now the young man (this *ko*) statement he went away grieving; he was [one] for having possessions many.
23 And Jesus said to the disciples of Him; Amen I say to you that a rich man with difficulty will enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
24 Again now I say to you; easier for [it] is a camel through [the] (an eye *NK(o)*) of a needle (to go through *NK(o)*) than a rich man to enter into the kingdom (*NK(o)*) (of God. *NK(O)*)
25 Having heard now the disciples (of him *k*) were astonished exceedingly saying; Who then is able to be saved?
26 Having looked on [them] now Jesus said to them; With men this impossible is, with however God all things [are] possible (is. *k*)
27 Then answering Peter said to Him; Behold we ourselves left all things and we followed You; what then will be to us?
28 And Jesus said to them; Amen I say to you that you yourselves who having followed Me in the regeneration, when may sit down the Son of Man upon [the] throne of glory of Him, (will sit *N(k)O*) also (you yourselves *NK(O)*) on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 And everyone (who *N(k)O*) has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or (wife or *KO*) children or lands for the sake of name (of Me *NK(o)*) (a hundredfold *NK(O)*) will receive and life eternal will inherit. (aiōnios )
30 Many however will be first last, and last first.
