[영어 성경] Matthew chapter 19
CHAPTER 19
Mt. 19:1 When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee
and went into the region of Judea to the other side of the
Jordan.
Mt. 19:2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
Mt. 19:3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it
lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every
reason?”
Mt. 19:4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the
Creator `made them male and female’, [Gen. 1:27]
Mt. 19:5 and said, `For this reason a man will leave his father and
mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become
one flesh’? [Gen. 2:24]
Mt. 19:6 So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has
joined together, let man not separate.”
Mt. 19:7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man
give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”
Mt. 19:8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives
because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from
the beginning.
Mt. 19:9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for
marital unfaithfulness, and marries another woman commits
adultery.”

Mt. 19:10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a
husband and wife, it is better not to marry.”
Mt. 19:11 Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only
those to whom it has been given.
Mt. 19:12 For some are eunuchs because they were born that way;
others were made that way by men; and others have
renounced marriage [Or have made themselves eunuchs]
because of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept
this should accept it.”
Mt. 19:13 Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his
hands on them and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked
those who brought them.
Mt. 19:14 Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not
hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as
these.”
Mt. 19:15 When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from
there.
Mt. 19:16 Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what
good thing must I do to get eternal life?”
Mt. 19:17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied.
“There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life,
obey the commandments.”
Mt. 19:18 “Which ones?” the man enquired. Jesus replied, “`Do not
murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give
false testimony,
Mt. 19:19 honour your father and mother,’ [Exodus 20:12-16; Deut.
5:16-20] and `love your neighbour as yourself.’“ [Lev. 19:18]
Mt. 19:20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still
lack?”
Mt. 19:21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your
possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure
in heaven. Then come, follow me.”

Mt. 19:22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because
he had great wealth.
Mt. 19:23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “I tell you the truth, it is hard
for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.
Mt. 19:24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye
of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.”
Mt. 19:25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished
and asked, “Who then can be saved?”
Mt. 19:26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible,
but with God all things are possible.”
Mt. 19:27 Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you!
What then will there be for us?”
Mt. 19:28 Jesus said to them, “I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all
things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you
who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging
the twelve tribes of Israel.
Mt. 19:29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or
father or mother [Some manuscripts: mother or wife] or
children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as
much and will inherit eternal life.
Mt. 19:30 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last
will be first
