23And Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly I say to you that with difficulty a rich person will enter into the kingdom of heaven! 24And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than a rich person intog the kingdom of God.” 25So when* the disciples heard this,* they were extremely amazed, saying, “Then who can be saved?” 26But Jesus looked at them* and* said to them, “With human beings this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” 27Then Peter answered and* said to him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed you. What then will there be for us?” 28And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you that in the renewal of the world,h when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me—you also will sit on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wifei or children or fields on account of my name will receive a hundred times as much, and will inherit eternal life. 30But many who are first will be last, and the last first.
