Matthew 19:16-22

Goodspeed(i) 16 A man came up to him and said, "Master, what good deed must I do to obtain eternal life?" 17 But 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 that life, keep the commandments." 18 He said to him, "Which ones?" Jesus said, "These: '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 'You shall love your neighbor as you do yourself.' " 20 The young man said to him, "I have obeyed all these commandments. What do I still lack?" 21 Jesus said to him, "If you want to be perfect, go! Sell your property and give the money to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven. Then come back and be a follower of mine." 22 But when the young man heard that, he went away much cast down, for he had a great deal of property.
