Mattityahu 19
19
1And it came to pass when Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach finished these devarim, he departed from the Galil and came into the regions of Yehudah east of the Yarden River.
2And a great multitude followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, who brought refuah (healing) to them there.
3And the Perushim approached him with a she'elah to test him, and they asked him, Is it mutar (permissible) for a man to give a get (divorce) to his wife for any and every reason?
4But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said in reply, Have you not read that HaBoreh (The Creator, Yotzer) bereshis (in the beginning) created them zachar (male) and nekevah (female)?#19:4 Gn 1:27; 5:2
5And he said, Because of this, YAAZAV ISH ES AVIV VES IMMO VDAVAK BISHTO VHAYU LVASAR ECHAD (a man will leave his father and his mother and will be joined to his isha (wife), and the two will be one flesh).#19:5 Gn 2:24
6So they are no longer shnayim (two) but basar echad (one flesh). Therefore, whatever Hashem joined together, let no man divide asunder.
7They say to him, Why then did Moshe Rabbenu give the mitzvah to give the get, the sefer keritut, and send her away?
8He says to them, Moshe, because of your hardness of heart, permitted you to give the get to your wives; but from bereshis (in the beginning), however, it was not so.
9But I#19:9 Moshiach say to you that whoever, the case of zenut (fornication) being excepted, gives the get to his wife and marries another, is guilty of niuf (adultery).
10Moshiachʼs talmidim say to him, If thus is the case of the man with the wife, nikhnas lchuppah (to be wed) is not advantageous.
11But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Not everyone is able to accept this dvar torah, but rather those to whom it has been given.
12For there are sarisim (eunuchs) who from the womb of their Em were born thus, and there are sarisim who were made sarisim by men, and there are sarisim who make sarisim of themselves for the sake of the Malchut HaShomayim. The one able to receive this, let him receive it.
13Then yeladim were brought to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach that he might place his hands on them and say a bracha. However, Moshiachʼs talmidim rebuked them.
14But he said, Permit the yeladim to come to me, and forbid them not, for of such is the Malchut HaShomayim.
15And having placed his hands on the yeladim, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach departed from there.
16And one, having approached Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, said, Rebbe, what mitzvah, what good may I do that I may have Chayyei Olam?
17And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, Why do you ask me about the good? There is only One who is good, nu? But if you wish to enter into Chayyim (Life), do not fail to be shomer mitzvot.
18He says to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, Which mitzvah? And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said, LO TIRTZACH, LO TINAF, LO TIGNOV, LO TAANEH VREIACHAH ED SHAKER, (You shall not murder, commit adultery, steal, bear false witness),
19KABEID ES AVICHA VES IMMECHA,#19:19 Ex 20:12-16; Dt 5:16-20 VAHAVTAH LREACHA KAMOCHA#19:19 Lv 19:18 (Honor your father and your mother, and you shall love your neighbor as yourself).
20The bocher (bachelor, young man) says to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, I was shomer mitzvot and frum in all these things, so where do I still fall short?
21Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to him, If you wish to be tamim (perfect), if you wish to have shelemut (perfection, completeness), then go and sell your possessions and give to the aniyim (poor) and you will have otzar (treasure) in Shomayim. Then come and follow me.#19:21 Moshiach
22But having heard the divrei Moshiach, the young man went away with agmat nefesh (grief), for he was having many possessions.
23And he said to his talmidim, Omein, I say to you that an oisher with difficulty will enter into the Malchut HaShomayim.
24And again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for an oisher to enter into the Malchut HaShomayim.
25And when Moshiachʼs talmidim heard this, they were exceedingly astounded, saying, Who then is able to receive the Yeshu'at Eloheinu?
26And having looked upon them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, With Bnei Adam it is impossible; but with Hashem all things are possible.
27Then Kefa said in reply to him, Hinei! We have left everything and followed you#19:27 as Moshiach! Where does that leave us?
28And Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Omein, I say to you, that you, the ones having followed me, when the Briah (Creation) becomes Chadasha (New), when the Bar Enosh#19:28 Moshiach sits upon his Kisei Kavod (Throne of Glory), you also will sit upon the Shneym Asar Kisot (Twelve Thrones) judging the Shneym Asar Shivtei Yisroel.
29And anyone who left bais or achim or achayot or Abba or Em or banim or sadot (fields) on account of me#19:29 Moshiach and my Name (Yehoshua, Yeshua), will receive a hundred times over and will inherit Chayyei Olam.
30And many who are Rishonim (first ones) will be Acharonim (last ones), and the Acharonim, Rishonim.

Matthew 19
19
1And it came to pass, when Jesus finished these words, he removed from Galilee, and did come to the borders of Judea, beyond the Jordan,
2and great multitudes followed him, and he healed them there.
3And 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?’
4And he answering said to them, ‘Did ye not read, that He who made [them], from the beginning a male and a female made them,
5and 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?
6so that they are no more two, but one flesh; what therefore God did join together, let no man put asunder.’
7They say to him, ‘Why then did Moses command to give a roll of divorce, and to put her away?’
8He 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.’
10His disciples say to him, ‘If the case of the man with the woman is so, it is not good to marry.’
11And he said to them, ‘All do not receive this word, but those to whom it hath been given;
12for 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.’
13Then were brought near to him children that he might put hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.
14But Jesus said, ‘Suffer the children, and forbid them not, to come unto me, for of such is the reign of the heavens;’
15and having laid on them [his] hands, he departed thence.
16And lo, one having come near, said to him, ‘Good teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have life age-during?’
17And 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.’
18He 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,
19honour thy father and mother, and, thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.’
20The young man saith to him, ‘All these did I keep from my youth; what yet do I lack?’
21Jesus 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.’
22And the young man, having heard the word, went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions;
23and Jesus said to his disciples, ‘Verily I say to you, that hardly shall a rich man enter into the reign of the heavens;
24and 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.’
25And his disciples having heard, were amazed exceedingly, saying, ‘Who, then, is able to be saved?’
26And Jesus having earnestly beheld, said to them, ‘With men this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.’
27Then Peter answering said to him, ‘Lo, we did leave all, and follow thee, what then shall we have?’
28And 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;
29and 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;
30and many first shall be last, and last first.
