Mark 10:22-24
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
22 At that saying the man’s countenance fell and was gloomy, and he went away grieved and sorrowing, for he was holding great possessions.
23 And Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, With what difficulty will those who possess wealth and [a]keep on holding it enter the kingdom of God!
24 And the disciples were amazed and bewildered and perplexed at His words. But Jesus said to them again, Children, how hard it is [b]for those who trust (place their confidence, their sense of safety) in riches to enter the kingdom of God!
