23 And Jesus, looking around, *said to His disciples, (A)How hard it will be for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God!” 24 The disciples (B)were amazed at His words. But Jesus *answered again and *said to them, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! 25 (C)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.”
