Nevertheless I have {somewhat} against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.

Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy; {uncertain...: Gr. uncertainty of riches}

And sold their possessions and goods, and parted them to all {men}, as every man had need.

But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part, which shall not be taken away from her.

For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one {point}, he is guilty of all.

To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, {for you: or, for us}

Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any {man} will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it.

Buy the truth, and sell {it} not; {also} wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go {and} sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come {and} follow me.

But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.

And when he was come near, he beheld the city, and wept over it,

Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

And he said to {them} all, If any {man} will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.

And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved. {for you: Gr. for your souls}

If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will {my} Father honour.

And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with {him}, that we may be also glorified together.

These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when ye fail, they may receive you into everlasting habitations. {mammon: or, riches}

For he said, Surely they {are} my people, children {that} will not lie: so he was their Saviour.

Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he {was} more honourable than all the house of his father.

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any {man} will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.

Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go {and} sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come {and} follow me.

And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.

My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is not worthy of me.

Neither was there any among them that lacked: for as many as were possessors of lands or houses sold them, and brought the prices of the things that were sold,

And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called {the place} of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:

All ye, assemble yourselves, and hear; which among them hath declared these {things}? The LORD hath loved him: he will do his pleasure on Babylon, and his arm {shall be on} the Chaldeans.

But let patience have {her} perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.
