10:17 And going out into a "way," someone was running before him ...
and falling on his knees before him, he was asking him ... Teacher! Good! what may I do so that I may inherit "eternal life"?
10:18 And Jesus said to him ... Why do you call me "good"?
  nobody is "good" ...
  if nobody (is good) ...
  the God (is good).
10:19 You know the commandments ...
  no murdering, no adultering, no stealing, no false witnessing, no defrauding, be honoring ...
  your father and mother.
10:20 Then he enlightened to him ... Teacher! All these things I guard out of my "youth."
10:21 And Jesus, having looked at him ...
  loved him.
And he said to him ... one thing you lack ...
  Go, sell as much as you have ...
  and give it to the poor ...
  and you will have treasure in heaven ...
  and come follow me.
10:22 But feeling down upon the word ...
  he left grieving because he had many possessions.
10:23 And having looked around Jesus says to his pupils ... How hard will the ones having riches to enter into the Kingdom of God.
10:24 And the pupils were amazed upon his words ...
But Jesus again having answered says to them ... Children, how difficult it is to enter into the Kingdom of God.
10:25 It is easier for a "camel" to go through the "eye of a needle" ...
  than for a rich person to enter into the Kingdom of God.
10:26 And they were even more roundly amazed saying to themselves ... And who is able to be saved?
10:27 Having looked at them Jesus says ... With men impossible ...
  but not with God ... for all things are possible with God.
10:28 The Stone began to say to him ... Behold, we left everything ... and we have followed you.
10:29 The Jesus said ... amen, I say to you ... there is nobody who left house, or brothers, or sisters, or mother, or father, or children, or fields for the sake of me ...
  and for the sake of the "good news."
10:30 who will not recieve a hundredfold now in this age ...
  houses and brothers and sisters and mothers, and children, and fields with persecutions ...
  and in the coming age ... "eternal life."
10:31 And many first will be last ...
  and the last ... first.
