2. Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
3.Some parisees came to him to test him. They asked, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason?"
4."Haven't you read," he replied, "that at the beginning the creator made them male and female,'
5.and said , 'For this is reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife , and the two will become one flesh'
6.So they are no longer two, but one. there for what God has joined together,let man not separate."
7."Why then," they asked,"did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?"
8.Jesus replied,"Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning.
9.I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits adultary."
10.The disciples came to him, "If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry."
11.Jesus replied, "Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given.
12.For some are eunuchs beacuse they were born that way; others were made that way by men; and others have renounced marriage because of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it."
13.Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them. But the disciples rebuked those who brought them.
14.Jesus said, "Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them,for the kingdom of heaven belong to such as these."
15.When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there.
16.Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, "What good thing must I do to get eternal life?"
17."Why do you ask me about what is good?" Jesus replied. "There is only One who is good. If you want to eternal life, obey the commandments,"
18.'Which ones? the man inquired. Jesus replied,"do not murder,do not commit adultery, do not steal,do not give false testimony,
19.honor your father and mother,' and 'love your neighbor as yourself.'
20.All these I have kept," the young man said."What shall I still lack?"
21.Jesus answered,"If you want be perfect, go,sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me."
22.When the young man heard this, he went away sad because he had great wealth.
23.Then Jesus said to his disciples,"I tell you the truth,it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
24.Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God."
25.When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, "Who then can be saved?"
26.Jesus looked at them and said, "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."
27.Peter answered him, "We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?"
28.Jesus said to them, "I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29.And everyone who has left house of brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or fields for my sake will receive a hunded times as much and will inherit eternal life.
30.But many who are first will be last, amd many who are last will be first.
