Matthew 19:17-19

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁷ Jesus replied, ‘Why do you ask me about a good thing? Only God is good. Nobody else. If you want to have real life, then you must obey God's laws.’

¹⁸ The man asked Jesus, ‘Which laws must I obey?’

So Jesus replied, ‘Do not kill anyone. Do not have sex with anyone who is not your wife. Do not rob anyone. Do not say things that are not true about people. ¹⁹ Love your father and your mother and obey them. Love other people as much as you love yourself.’
