Mark 10:6-24 Darby Translation 1890 (DARBY)

6. but from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.

7. For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother and shall be united to his wife,

8. and the two shall be one flesh: so that they are no longer two but one flesh.

9. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.

10. And again in the house the disciples asked him concerning this.

11. And he says to them, Whosoever shall put away his wife and shall marry another, commits adultery against her.

12. And if a woman put away her husband and shall marry another, she commits adultery.

13. And they brought little children to him that he might touch them. But the disciples rebuked those that brought them.

14. But Jesus seeing it, was indignant, and said to them, Suffer the little children to come to me; forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.

15. Verily I say to you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall in no wise enter into it.

16. And having taken them in his arms, having laid his hands on them, he blessed them.

17. And as he went forth into the way, a person ran up to him, and kneeling to him asked him, Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?

18. But Jesus said to him, Why callest thou me good? no one is good but one, that is God.

19. Thou knowest the commandments: Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honour thy father and mother.

20. And he answering said to him, Teacher, all these things have I kept from my youth.

21. And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, One thing lackest thou: go, sell whatever thou hast and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross.

22. But he, sad at the word, went away grieved, for he had large possessions.

23. And Jesus looking around says to his disciples, How difficultly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

24. And the disciples were amazed at his words. And Jesus again answering says to them, Children, how difficult it is that those who trust in riches should enter into the kingdom of God!
