A certain ruler asked him,“ Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

A certain ruler asked Jesus a question.“ Good teacher,” he said,“ what must I do to receive eternal life?”

And a ruler asked him,“ Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

Once a religious leader asked Jesus this question:“ Good Teacher, what should I do to inherit eternal life?”

A ruler asked him,“ Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

A ruler questioned Him, saying,“ Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

Now a certain ruler asked Him, saying,“ Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

A ruler asked Him,“ Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?

A certain ruler asked him, saying,“ Good Teacher, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

Now as Jesus was starting out on his way, someone ran up to him, fell on his knees, and said,“ Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”Jesus said to him,“ Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.You know the commandments:‘ Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, do not defraud, honor your father and mother.’”The man said to him,“ Teacher, I have wholeheartedly obeyed all these laws since my youth.”As Jesus looked at him, he felt love for him and said,“ You lack one thing. Go, sell whatever you have and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”But at this statement, the man looked sad and went away sorrowful, for he was very rich.Then Jesus looked around and said to his disciples,“ How hard it is for the rich to enter the kingdom of God!”The disciples were astonished at these words. But again Jesus said to them,“ Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God!It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”They were even more astonished and said to one another,“ Then who can be saved?”Jesus looked at them and replied,“ This is impossible for mere humans, but not for God; all things are possible for God.”Peter began to speak to him,“ Look, we have left everything to follow you!”Jesus said,“ I tell you the truth, there is no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for my sake and for the sake of the gospelwho will not receive in this age a hundred times as much– homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, fields, all with persecutions– and in the age to come, eternal life.But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Now someone came up to him and said,“ Teacher, what good thing must I do to gain eternal life?”He said to him,“ Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. But if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments.”“ Which ones?” he asked. Jesus replied,“ Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony,honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor as yourself.”The young man said to him,“ I have wholeheartedly obeyed all these laws. What do I still lack?”Jesus said to him,“ If you wish to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”But when the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he was very rich.Then Jesus said to his disciples,“ I tell you the truth, it will be hard for a rich person to enter the kingdom of heaven!Again I say, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter into the kingdom of God.”The disciples were greatly astonished when they heard this and said,“ Then who can be saved?”Jesus looked at them and replied,“ This is impossible for mere humans, but for God all things are possible.”Then Peter said to him,“ Look, we have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?”Jesus said to them,“ I tell you the truth: In the age when all things are renewed, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.And whoever has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.But many who are first will be last, and the last first.

Then he brought them outside and asked,“ Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”

“ Why do you call me‘ Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do what I tell you?

Now an expert in religious law stood up to test Jesus, saying,“ Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?”He said to him,“ What is written in the law? How do you understand it?”The expert answered,“ Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your strength, and with all your mind, and love your neighbor as yourself.”Jesus said to him,“ You have answered correctly; do this, and you will live.”

“ A son naturally honors his father and a slave respects his master. If I am your father, where is my honor? If I am your master, where is my respect? The LORD who rules over all asks you this, you priests who make light of my name! But you reply,‘ How have we made light of your name?’

You call me‘ Teacher’ and‘ Lord,’ and do so correctly, for that is what I am.If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you too ought to wash one another’s feet.For I have given you an example– you should do just as I have done for you.

They come to you in crowds, and they sit in front of you as my people. They hear your words, but do not obey them. For they talk lustfully, and their heart is set on their own advantage.

Now when they heard this, they were acutely distressed and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles,“ What should we do, brothers?”
