15. And they were bringing little children to him, so that he might touch them. And when the disciples saw this, they rebuked them.
16. But Jesus, calling them together, said: "Allow the children to come to me, and do not be an obstacle to them. For of such is the kingdom of God.
17. Amen, I say to you, whoever will not accept the kingdom of God like a child, will not enter into it."
18. And a certain leader questioned him, saying: "Good teacher, what should I do to possess eternal life?"
19. Then Jesus said to him: "Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone.
20. You know the commandments: You shall not kill. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not give false testimony. Honor your father and mother."
21. And he said, "I have kept all these things from my youth."
22. And when Jesus heard this, he said to him: "One thing is still lacking for you. Sell all the things that you have, and give to the poor. And then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me."
23. When he heard this, he became very sorrowful. For he was very rich.
24. Then Jesus, seeing him brought to sorrow, said: "How difficult it is for those who have money to enter into the kingdom of God!
25. For it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for a wealthy man to enter into the kingdom of God."
