Luke 18:18-20

New International Reader's Version

Rich People and the Kingdom of God

¹⁸ A certain ruler asked Jesus a question. “Good teacher,” he said, “what must I do to receive eternal life?”

¹⁹ “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good except God. ²⁰ You know what the commandments say. ‘Do not commit adultery. Do not commit murder. Do not steal. Do not be a false witness. Honor your father and mother.’ ” (Exodus 20:12–16; Deuteronomy 5:16–20)
