Mark 10:23-27

EasyEnglish Bible

²³ Jesus looked round and he said to his disciples, ‘It is very difficult for rich people to let God rule in their lives.’

²⁴ They were very surprised about Jesus' words. Jesus spoke again to them: ‘My friends, it is very difficult for anyone to let God rule in their life. ²⁵ The hole in a needle is very small. A camel cannot go through it! But it is even more difficult than that for a rich person to let God rule in their life.’

²⁶ Then Jesus' disciples were even more surprised. They said to each other, ‘So perhaps God will not save anyone!’

²⁷ Jesus looked at them and he replied, ‘For people, it really is impossible. But God can do it. God can do everything.’
