22 Après avoir entendu ces paroles, le jeune homme s’en alla tout triste; car il avait de grands biens.

23 Jésus dit à ses disciples: Je vous le dis en vérité,un riche entrera difficilement dans le royaume des cieux.

24 Je vous le dis encore, il est plus facile à un chameau de passer par le trou d’une aiguille qu’à un riche d’entrer dans le royaume de Dieu.

25 Les disciples, ayant entendu cela, furent très étonnés, et dirent: Qui peut donc être sauvé?

26 Jésus les regarda, et leur dit: Aux hommes cela est impossible,mais à Dieu tout est possible.
