Teaching About Divorce
19 [a](A)Now it happened that when Jesus had finished these words, He departed from Galilee and (B)came into the region of Judea beyond the Jordan; 2 and [b]large crowds followed Him, and (C)He healed them there.
3 And some Pharisees came to [c]Jesus, testing Him and saying, “(D)Is it lawful for a man to [d]divorce his wife for any reason at all?” 4 And He answered and said, “Have you not read (E)that He who created them from the beginning made them male and female, 5 and said, ‘(F)For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and (G)the two shall become one flesh’? 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.” 7 They *said to Him, “(H)Why then did Moses command to give her a certificate of divorce and send her away?” 8 He *said to them, “Because of your hardness of heart Moses permitted you to [e]divorce your wives; but from the beginning it has not been this way. 9 And I say to you, (I)whoever [f]divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman [g]commits adultery[h].”
10 The disciples *said to Him, “If the relationship of the man with his wife is like this, it is better not to marry.” 11 But He said to them, “(J)Not all men can accept this statement, but (K)only those to whom it has been given. 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are also eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this, let him accept it.”
Jesus Blesses Children
13 (L)Then some children were brought to Him so that He might lay His hands on them and pray; and the disciples rebuked them. 14 But Jesus said, “[i](M)Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for (N)the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.” 15 And after laying His hands on them, He departed from there.
The Rich Young Ruler
16 (O)And behold, someone came to Him and said, “Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may have (P)eternal life?” 17 And He said to him, “Why are you asking Me about what is good? There is only One who is good; but (Q)if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments.” 18 Then he *said to Him, “Which ones?” And Jesus said, “(R)You shall not murder; You shall not commit adultery; You shall not steal; You shall not bear false witness; 19 (S)Honor your father and mother; and (T)You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 20 The young man *said to Him, “All these things I have kept; what am I still lacking?” 21 Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be [j]complete, go and (U)sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have (V)treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22 But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.
23 And Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I say to you, (W)it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 And again I say to you, (X)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.” 25 And when the disciples heard this, they were very astonished and said, “Then who can be saved?” 26 And looking at them Jesus said to them, “(Y)With people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”
Many Who Are First Will Be Last
27 Then Peter answered and said to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?” 28 And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when (Z)the Son of Man will sit on [k]His glorious throne, (AA)you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 And (AB)everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother [l]or children or farms for My name’s sake, will receive [m]one hundred times as much, and will inherit eternal life. 30 (AC)But many who are first will be last; and the last, first.

Katuruan tungkol sa Paghihiwalay ng Mag-asawa(A)
19 Pagkatapos niyang ipangaral ang mga bagay na ito, umalis si Jesus sa Galilea at nagtungo sa lupain ng Judea, sa kabila ng Ilog Jordan. 2 Sinundan siya ng napakaraming tao, at doo'y pinagaling niya ang mga maysakit.
3 May ilang Pariseong lumapit sa kanya na humanap ng maipaparatang sa kanya. Tanong nila, “Naaayon ba sa Kautusan na hiwalayan ng lalaki ang kanyang asawa sa kahit anong dahilan?” 4 Sumagot(B) si Jesus, “Hindi ba ninyo nabasa na sa pasimula'y nilalang ng Diyos ang tao na lalaki at babae? 5 At(C) siya rin ang nagsabi, ‘Dahil dito'y iiwan ng lalaki ang kanyang ama't ina, at magsasama sila ng kanyang asawa at sila'y magiging isa.’ 6 Hindi na sila dalawa kundi iisa, kaya't ang pinagsama ng Diyos ay huwag paghiwalayin ng tao.”
7 Tinanong(D) siya ng mga Pariseo, “Kung gayon, bakit iniutos ni Moises na bigyan ng lalaki ang kanyang asawa ng isang kasulatan ng paghihiwalay bago niya ito palayasin?”
8 Sumagot si Jesus, “Ipinahintulot ni Moises na hiwalayan ninyo ang inyong asawa dahil sa katigasan ng inyong ulo. Subalit hindi ganoon sa pasimula. 9 Ito(E) ang sinasabi ko sa inyo, sinumang lalaking humiwalay sa kanyang asawa, maliban kung ang asawa niya'y nakikiapid, [itinutulak niya ang kanyang asawa na mangalunya][a] at siya'y mag-asawa ng iba ay nagkakasala ng pangangalunya [at ang mag-asawa sa babaing hiniwalayan ay nagkakasala rin ng pangangalunya].”[b]
10 Sinabi naman ng mga alagad, “Kung ganyan po ang kalagayan ng lalaki sa kanyang asawa, mabuti pang huwag nang mag-asawa.”
11 Sumagot si Jesus, “Hindi lahat ay kayang tumanggap ng aral na ito kundi sila lamang na pinagkalooban ng Diyos. 12 Sapagkat may iba't ibang dahilan kung bakit may mga lalaking hindi makapag-asawa: ang ilan ay isinilang na may ganitong kapansanan; ang iba nama'y dahil sa kagagawan ng ibang tao; mayroon namang hindi nag-aasawa alang-alang sa kaharian ng langit. Hayaang tanggapin ang aral na ito ng may kakayahang tumanggap nito.”
Ipinanalangin ni Jesus ang mga Bata(F)
13 May nagdala ng mga bata kay Jesus upang ipatong niya sa mga ito ang kanyang kamay at sila'y ipanalangin. Ngunit pinagalitan sila ng mga alagad. 14 Sinabi ni Jesus, “Hayaan ninyong lumapit sa akin ang mga bata. Huwag ninyo silang pagbawalan sapagkat ang mga katulad nila ang mapapabilang sa kaharian ng langit.” 15 Ipinatong nga niya sa mga bata ang kanyang kamay, at pagkatapos, siya'y umalis.
Ang Binatang Mayaman(G)
16 May isa namang lalaking lumapit kay Jesus at nagtanong, “Guro, anong mabuting bagay ang dapat kong gawin upang makamtan ko ang buhay na walang hanggan?”
17 Sumagot si Jesus, “Bakit mo ako tinatanong kung ano ang mabuti? Iisa lang ang mabuti. Ngunit kung nais mong magkamit ng buhay na walang hanggan, sundin mo ang mga utos ng Diyos.”
18 “Alin(H) sa mga iyon?” tanong niya.
Sumagot si Jesus, “Huwag kang papatay; huwag kang mangangalunya; huwag kang magnanakaw; huwag kang sasaksi nang walang katotohanan; 19 igalang(I) mo ang iyong ama at ina; at ibigin mo ang iyong kapwa gaya ng pag-ibig mo sa iyong sarili.”
20 Sinabi ng binata, “Sinunod ko na po ang lahat ng iyan. Ano pa po ang dapat kong gawin?”
21 Sumagot si Jesus, “Kung ibig mong maging ganap, ipagbili mo ang lahat ng iyong ari-arian at ipamahagi sa mga mahihirap. At magkakaroon ka ng kayamanan sa langit. Pagkatapos, bumalik ka at sumunod ka sa akin.” 22 Pagkarinig nito, malungkot na umalis ang binata sapagkat siya'y napakayaman.
23 Sinabi ni Jesus sa kanyang mga alagad, “Tandaan ninyo: napakahirap sa isang mayaman ang makapasok sa kaharian ng langit! 24 Sinasabi ko rin sa inyo: mas madali pang makadaan sa butas ng karayom ang isang kamelyo, kaysa makapasok sa kaharian ng Diyos ang isang mayaman.”
25 Lubhang nagtaka ang mga alagad sa kanilang narinig kaya't nagtanong sila, “Kung gayon, sino po ang maliligtas?” 26 Tiningnan sila ni Jesus at sinabi, “Hindi ito magagawa ng tao, ngunit magagawa ng Diyos ang lahat ng bagay.”
27 Nagsalita naman si Pedro, “Tingnan po ninyo, iniwan namin ang lahat at kami'y sumunod sa inyo. Ano po naman ang para sa amin?”
28 Sinabi(J) sa kanila ni Jesus, “Tandaan ninyo: kapag naghahari na ang Anak ng Tao sa kanyang trono ng kaluwalhatian sa bagong daigdig, kayong sumunod sa akin ay uupo din sa labindalawang trono upang mamuno sa labindalawang lipi ng Israel. 29 Kapag iniwan ninuman ang kanyang tahanan, mga kapatid na lalaki at babae, ama, ina, [asawa,][c] mga anak, o mga lupain alang-alang sa akin ay tatanggap siya ng sandaang ibayo at pagkakalooban siya ng buhay na walang hanggan. 30 Ngunit(K) maraming nauuna na magiging huli, at maraming nahúhulí na mauuna.”

Divorce(A)
19 When Jesus had finished saying these things,(B) he left Galilee and went into the region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. 2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them(C) there.
3 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. They asked, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife(D) for any and every reason?”
4 “Haven’t you read,” he replied, “that at the beginning the Creator ‘made them male and female,’[a](E) 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’[b]?(F) 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
7 “Why then,” they asked, “did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of divorce and send her away?”(G)
8 Jesus replied, “Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts were hard. But it was not this way from the beginning. 9 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery.”(H)
10 The disciples said to him, “If this is the situation between a husband and wife, it is better not to marry.”
11 Jesus replied, “Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has been given.(I) 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”
The Little Children and Jesus(J)
13 Then people brought little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them(K) and pray for them. But the disciples rebuked them.
14 Jesus said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of heaven belongs(L) to such as these.”(M) 15 When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there.
The Rich and the Kingdom of God(N)
16 Just then a man came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life(O)?”(P)
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, keep the commandments.”(Q)
18 “Which ones?” he inquired.
Jesus replied, “‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery,(R) you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, 19 honor your father and mother,’[c](S) and ‘love your neighbor as yourself.’[d]”(T)
20 “All these I have kept,” the young man said. “What do I still lack?”
21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect,(U) go, sell your possessions and give to the poor,(V) and you will have treasure in heaven.(W) Then come, follow me.”
22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.
23 Then Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I tell you, it is hard for someone who is rich(X) to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”
25 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?”
26 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”(Y)
27 Peter answered him, “We have left everything to follow you!(Z) What then will there be for us?”
28 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, at the renewal of all things, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne,(AA) you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(AB) 29 And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife[e] or children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life.(AC) 30 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first.(AD)
