22. When the man heard this, gloom spread over his face, and he went away sad, because he was very rich.
23. Jesus looked round at his disciples and said to them, “How hard it will be for rich people to enter the Kingdom of God!”
24. The disciples were shocked at these words, but Jesus went on to say, “My children, how hard it is to enter the Kingdom of God!
25. It is much harder for a rich person to enter the Kingdom of God than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle.”
26. At this the disciples were completely amazed and asked one another, “Who, then, can be saved?”
27. Jesus looked straight at them and answered, “This is impossible for human beings, but not for God; everything is possible for God.”
