Mark 10:25

← Mark 10:24 [words of Jesus]	Mark 10:25 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Mark 10:26 →
And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!	It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.	And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
