Matthew 19:24


← Matthew 19:23 [words of Jesus] Matthew 19:24 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Matthew 19:25 →
Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.
And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
When his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed, saying, Who then can be saved?
