The Rich Young Man

16 sAnd behold, a man came up to him, saying, “Teacher, twhat good deed must I do to have eternal life?” 17 And he said to him, “Why do you ask me about what is good? There is only one who is good. uIf you would enter life, keep the commandments.” 18 He said to him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said, v“You shall not murder, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness, 19 Honor your father and mother, and, wYou shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 20 The young man said to him, “All these I have kept. What do I still lack?” 21 Jesus said to him, “If you would be xperfect, go, ysell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, zfollow me.”
