Matthew 19:23 in Context — Matthew 19
21 Disse-lhe Jesus: “Se queres ser completo, vai, vende o que tens, e dá aos pobres. Assim terás um tesouro no céu. Então vem, segue-me.”
22 Mas quando o rapaz ouviu essa palavra, foi embora triste, porque tinha muitos bens.
23 Jesus, então, disse aos seus discípulos: “Em verdade vos digo que dificilmente um rico entrará no reino dos céus.
24 Aliás, eu vos digo que é mais fácil um camelo passar pela abertura de uma agulha do que o rico entrar no reino de Deus.”
25 Quando os seus discípulos ouviram [isso] , espantaram-se muito, e disseram: “Quem, pois, pode se salvar?”
