Matthew 19:20-22

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁰ The young man said, “I have obeyed all these commands. What else do I need?”

²¹ Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, then go and sell all that you own. Give the money to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven. Then come and follow me!”

²² But when the young man heard Jesus tell him to give away his money, he was sad. He didn’t want to do this, because he was very rich. So he left.
