A Divine Exchange

Mark 10:23 NKJV and RVR60

Then Jesus looked around and said to His disciples, “How hard it is for those who have riches to enter the kingdom of God!”

Entonces Jesús, mirando alrededor, dijo a sus discípulos: ¡Cuán difícilmente entrarán en el reino de Dios los que tienen riquezas!

Mark 10:24 NKJV and RVR60

And the disciples were astonished at His words. But Jesus answered again and said to them, “Children, how hard it is for those who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God!

Los discípulos se asombraron de sus palabras; pero Jesús, respondiendo, volvió a decirles: Hijos, ¡cuán difícil les es entrar en el reino de Dios, a los que confían en las riquezas!

Mark 10:25 NKJV and RVR60

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.”

Más fácil es pasar un camello por el ojo de una aguja, que entrar un rico en el reino de Dios.

Mark 10:26 NKJV and RVR60

And they were greatly astonished, saying among themselves, “Who then can be saved?”

Ellos se asombraban aun más, diciendo entre sí: ¿Quién, pues, podrá ser salvo?

Mark 10:27 NKJV and RVR60

But Jesus looked at them and said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God; for with God all things are possible.”

Entonces Jesús, mirándolos, dijo: Para los hombres es imposible, mas para Dios, no; porque todas las cosas son posibles para Dios.

Mark 10:28 NKJV and RVR60

Then Peter began to say to Him, “See, we have left all and followed You.”

Entonces Pedro comenzó a decirle: He aquí, nosotros lo hemos dejado todo, y te hemos seguido.

Mark 10:29 NKJV and RVR60

So Jesus answered and said, “Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother or wife or children or lands, for My sake and the gospel’s,

Respondió Jesús y dijo: De cierto os digo que no hay ninguno que haya dejado casa, o hermanos, o hermanas, o padre, o madre, o mujer, o hijos, o tierras, por causa de mí y del evangelio,

Mark 10:30 NKJV and RVR60

who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time—houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions—and in the age to come, eternal life.

que no reciba cien veces más ahora en este tiempo; casas, hermanos, hermanas, madres, hijos, y tierras, con persecuciones; y en el siglo venidero la vida eterna.

Mark 10:31 NKJV and RVR60

But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”

Pero muchos primeros serán postreros, y los postreros, primeros.

Since God gives us more in return than we give for Him, we must be willing to give all for Him.
