21 Then Jesus, gazing at him, loved him, and he said to him: 'One thing is lacking to you. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.'
22 But he went away grieving, having been greatly saddened by the word. For he had many possessions.
23 And Jesus, looking around, said to his disciples, 'How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God!'
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus, answering again, said to them: 'Little sons, how difficult it is for those who trust in money to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for the rich to enter into the kingdom of God.'
