NOVA VULGATA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Et factum est, cum consum masset Iesus sermones istos, migravit aGalilaea et venit in fines Iudaeae trans Iordanem.	1 And it happened that, when Jesus had completed these words, he moved away from Galilee, and he arrived within the borders of Judea, across the Jordan.
2 Et secutae sunt eum turbaemultae, et curavit eos ibi.	2 And great crowds followed him, and he healed them there.
3 Et accesserunt ad eum pharisaei tentantes eum et dicentes: “ Licet hominidimittere uxorem suam quacumque ex causa? ”.	3 And the Pharisees approached him, testing him, and saying, “Is it lawful for a man to separate from his wife, no matter what the cause?”
4 Qui respondens ait: “ Nonlegistis quia, qui creavit ab initio, masculum et feminam fecit eos	4 And he said to them in response, “Have you not read that he who made man from the beginning, made them male and female?” And he said:
5 et dixit:"Propter hoc dimittet homo patrem et matrem et adhaerebit uxori suae, eterunt duo in carne una?".	5 “For this reason, a man shall separate from father and mother, and he shall cling to his wife, and these two shall become one flesh.
6 Itaque iam non sunt duo sed una caro. Quod ergoDeus coniunxit, homo non separet ”.	6 And so, now they are not two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no man separate.”
7 Dicunt illi: “ Quid ergo Moysesmandavit dari libellum repudii et dimittere? ”.	7 They said to him, “Then why did Moses command him to give a bill of divorce, and to separate?”
8 Ait illis: “ Moyses adduritiam cordis vestri permisit vobis dimittere uxores vestras; ab initio autemnon sic fuit.	8 He said to them: “Although Moses permitted you to separate from your wives, due to the hardness of your heart, it was not that way from the beginning.
9 Dico autem vobis quia quicumque dimiserit uxorem suam, nisi obfornicationem, et aliam duxerit, moechatur ”.	9 And I say to you, that whoever will have separated from his wife, except because of fornication, and who will have married another, commits adultery, and whoever will have married her who has been separated, commits adultery.”
10 Dicunt ei discipuli eius: “ Si ita est causa hominis cum uxore, non expeditnubere ”.	10 His disciples said to him, “If such is the case for a man with a wife, then it is not expedient to marry.”
11 Qui dixit eis: “ Non omnes capiunt verbum istud, sed quibusdatum est.	11 And he said to them: “Not everyone is able to grasp this word, but only those to whom it has been given.
12 Sunt enim eunuchi, qui de matris utero sic nati sunt; et sunteunuchi, qui facti sunt ab hominibus; et sunt eunuchi, qui seipsos castraveruntpropter regnum caelorum. Qui potest capere, capiat ”.	12 For there are chaste persons who were born so from their mother’s womb, and there are chaste persons who have been made so by men, and there are chaste persons who have made themselves chaste for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Whoever is able to grasp this, let him grasp it.”
13 Tunc oblati sunt ei parvuli, ut manus eis imponeret et oraret; discipuliautem increpabant eis.	13 Then they brought to him little children, so that he would place his hands upon them and pray. But the disciples rebuked them.
14 Iesus vero ait: “ Sinite parvulos et nolite eosprohibere ad me venire; talium est enim regnum caelorum ”.	14 Yet truly, Jesus said to them: “Allow the little children to come to me, and do not choose to prohibit them. For the kingdom of heaven is among such as these.”
15 Et cumimposuisset eis manus, abiit inde.	15 And when he had imposed his hands upon them, he went away from there.
16 Et ecce unus accedens ait illi: “ Magister, quid boni faciam, ut habeamvitam aeternam? ”. Qui dixit ei:	16 And behold, someone approached and said to him, “Good Teacher, what good should I do, so that I may have eternal life?”
17 “ Quid me interrogas de bono? Unus estbonus. Si autem vis ad vitam ingredi, serva mandata ”.	17 And he said to him: “Why do you question me about what is good? One is good: God. But if you wish to enter into life, observe the commandments.”
18 Dicit illi: “ Quae? ”. Iesus autem dixit: “ Non homicidium facies, nonadulterabis, non facies furtum, non falsum testimonium dices,	18 He said to him, “Which?” And Jesus said: “You shall not murder. You shall not commit adultery. You shall not steal. You shall not give false testimony.
19 honora patremet matrem et diliges proximum tuum sicut teipsum ”.	19 Honor your father and your mother. And, you shall love your neighbor as yourself.”
20 Dicit illi adulescens:“ Omnia haec custodivi. Quid adhuc mihi deest? ”.	20 The young man said to him: “All these I have kept from my childhood. What is still lacking for me?”
21 Ait illi Iesus: “ Sivis perfectus esse, vade, vende, quae habes, et da pauperibus, et habebisthesaurum in caelo; et veni, sequere me ”.	21 Jesus said to him: “If you are willing to be perfect, go, sell what you have, and give to the poor, and then you will have treasure in heaven. And come, follow me.”
22 Cum audisset autem adulescensverbum, abiit tristis; erat enim habens multas possessiones.	22 And when the young man had heard this word, he went away sad, for he had many possessions.
23 Iesus autem dixit discipulis suis: “ Amen dico vobis: Dives difficileintrabit in regnum caelorum.	23 Then Jesus said to his disciples: “Amen, I say to you, that the wealthy shall enter with difficulty into the kingdom of heaven.
24 Et iterum dico vobis: Facilius est camelum perforamen acus transire, quam divitem intrare in regnum Dei ”.	24 And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle, than for the wealthy to enter into the kingdom of heaven.”
25 Auditis autemhis, discipuli mirabantur valde dicentes: “ Quis ergo poterit salvus esse? ”.	25 And upon hearing this, the disciples wondered greatly, saying: “Then who will be able to be saved?”
26 Aspiciens autem Iesus dixit illis: “ Apud homines hoc impossibile est, apudDeum autem omnia possibilia sunt ”.	26 But Jesus, gazing at them, said to them: “With men, this is impossible. But with God, all things are possible.”
27 Tunc respondens Petrus dixit ei: “ Ecce nos reliquimus omnia et secutisumus te. Quid ergo erit nobis? ”.	27 Then Peter responded by saying to him: “Behold, we have left behind all things, and we have followed you. So then, what will be for us?”
28 Iesus autem dixit illis: “ Amen dicovobis quod vos, qui secuti estis me, in regeneratione, cum sederit Filiushominis in throno gloriae suae, sedebitis et vos super thronos duodecim,iudicantes duodecim tribus Israel.	28 And Jesus said to them: “Amen I say to you, that at the resurrection, when the Son of man shall sit on the seat of his majesty, those of you who have followed me shall also sit on twelve seats, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
29 Et omnis, qui reliquit domos vel fratresaut sorores aut patrem aut matrem aut filios aut agros propter nomen meum,centuplum accipiet et vitam aeternam possidebit.	29 And anyone who has left behind home, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for the sake of my name, shall receive one hundred times more, and shall possess eternal life.
30 Multi autem erunt primi novissimi, et novissimi primi.	30 But many of those who are first shall be last, and the last shall be first.”
