they supposed that they should
have received more; and they
likewise received every man a
penny.
11 And when they had received
_it_, they murmured against
the good man of the house,
12 Saying, These last have
wrought _but_ one hour, and
thou hast made them equal unto
us, which have borne the
burden and heat of the day.
13 But he answered one of
them, and said, Friend, I do
thee no wrong: didst not thou
agree with me for a penny?
14 Take _that_ thine _is_, and
go thy way: I will give unto
this last, even as unto thee.
15 Is it not lawful for me to
do what I will with mine own?
is thine eye evil because I am
good?
16 So the last shall be first,
and the first last: for many
be called, but few chosen.
Luke.
CH. XVIII. 18-30.
18 And a certain ruler asked
him, saying, Good Master, what
shall I do to inherit eternal
life?
19 And Jesus said unto him,
Why callest thou me good? none
_is_ good, save one, _that is_
God.
20 Thou knowest the
commandments, Do not commit
adultery, Do not kill, Do not
steal, Do not bear false
witness, Honour thy father and
thy mother.
21 And he said, All these have
I kept from my youth up.
22 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.
23 And when he heard this, he
was very sorrowful: for he was
very rich.
24 And when Jesus saw that he
was very sorrowful, he said,
How hardly shall they that
have riches enter into the
kingdom of God!
25 For it is easier for a
camel to go through a needle’s
eye, than for a rich man to
enter into the kingdom of God!
26 And they that heard _it_,
said, Who then can be saved?
27 And he said, The things
which are impossible with men,
are possible with God.
28 Then Peter said, Lo, we
have left all, and followed
thee.
29 And he said unto them,
Verily, I say unto you, There
is no man that hath left
house, or parents, or
brethren, or wife, or
children, for the kingdom of
God’s sake,
30 Who shall not receive
manifold more in this present
time, and in the world to come
life everlasting.
§ 107. Jesus a third time foretels his Death and Resurrection. (See § 74,
§ 77.) _Perea_.
