4 And the fathers! provoke not your children, but nourish them in the instruction and admonition of the Lord.

7 and thou hast repeated them to thy sons, and spoken of them in thy sitting in thine house, and in thy walking in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,
15 and if wrong in your eyes to serve Jehovah -- choose for you to-day whom ye do serve; -- whether the gods whom your fathers served, which [are] beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorite in whose land ye are dwelling; and I and my house -- we serve Jehovah.

1 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these words, he removed from Galilee, and did come to the borders of Judea, beyond the Jordan,
2 and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
3 And the Pharisees came near to him, tempting him, and saying to him, `Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?`
4 And he answering said to them, `Did ye not read, that He who made [them], from the beginning a male and a female made them,
5 and said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and cleave to his wife, and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh?
6 so that they are no more two, but one flesh; what therefore God did join together, let no man put asunder.`
7 They say to him, `Why then did Moses command to give a roll of divorce, and to put her away?`
8 He saith to them -- `Moses for your stiffness of heart did suffer you to put away your wives, but from the beginning it hath not been so.
9 `And I say to you, that, whoever may put away his wife, if not for whoredom, and may marry another, doth commit adultery; and he who did marry her that hath been put away, doth commit adultery.`
10 His disciples say to him, `If the case of the man with the woman is so, it is not good to marry.`
11 And he said to them, `All do not receive this word, but those to whom it hath been given;
12 for there are eunuchs who from the mother`s womb were so born; and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who kept themselves eunuchs because of the reign of the heavens: he who is able to receive [it] -- let him receive.`
13 Then were brought near to him children that he might put hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.
14 But Jesus said, `Suffer the children, and forbid them not, to come unto me, for of such is the reign of the heavens;`
15 and having laid on them [his] hands, he departed thence.
16 And lo, one having come near, said to him, `Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have life age-during?`
17 And he said to him, `Why me dost thou call good? no one [is] good except One -- God; but if thou dost will to enter into the life, keep the commands.`
18 He saith to him, `What kind?` And Jesus said, `Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness,
19 honour thy father and mother, and, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.`
20 The young man saith to him, `All these did I keep from my youth; what yet do I lack?`
21 Jesus said to him, `If thou dost will to be perfect, go away, sell what thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven, and come, follow me.`
22 And the young man, having heard the word, went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions;
23 and Jesus said to his disciples, `Verily I say to you, that hardly shall a rich man enter into the reign of the heavens;
24 and again I say to you, it is easier for a camel through the eye of a needle to go, than for a rich man to enter into the reign of God.`
25 And his disciples having heard, were amazed exceedingly, saying, `Who, then, is able to be saved?`
26 And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, `With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.`
27 Then Peter answering said to him, `Lo, we did leave all, and follow thee, what then shall we have?`
28 And Jesus said to them, `Verily I say to you, that ye who did follow me, in the regeneration, when the Son of Man may sit upon a throne of his glory, shall sit -- ye also -- upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel;
29 and every one who left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or fields, for my name`s sake, an hundredfold shall receive, and life age-during shall inherit;
30 and many first shall be last, and last first.

7 and thou hast repeated them to thy sons, and spoken of them in thy sitting in thine house, and in thy walking in the way, and in thy lying down, and in thy rising up,
27 A dishonest gainer is troubling his house, And whoso is hating gifts liveth.
31 and they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved -- thou and thy house;

2 beloved, now, children of God are we, and it was not yet manifested what we shall be, and we have known that if he may be manifested, like him we shall be, because we shall see him as he is;

6 Sons sons [are] the crown of old men, And the glory of sons [are] their fathers.
4 And the fathers! provoke not your children, but nourish them in the instruction and admonition of the Lord.
29 Whoso is troubling his own house inheriteth wind, And a servant [is] the fool to the wise of heart.
1 The children! obey your parents in the Lord, for this is righteous;
2 honour thy father and mother,
6 but from the beginning of the creation, a male and a female God did make them;
7 on this account shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave unto his wife,
8 and they shall be -- the two -- for one flesh; so that they are no more two, but one flesh;
9 what therefore God did join together, let not man put asunder.
1 A Song of the Ascents, by David. Lo, how good and how pleasant The dwelling of brethren -- even together!
6 Give instruction to a youth about his way, Even when he is old he turneth not from it.
9 See life with the wife whom thou hast loved, all the days of the life of thy vanity, that He hath given to thee under the sun, all the days of thy vanity, for it [is] thy portion in life, even of thy labour that thou art labouring at under the sun.
