(25)But when his disciples heard it, they were exceedingly amazed,
saying, Who then can be saved? (26)And Jesus looking upon them, said
unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are
possible.

(27)Then Peter addressing him, said unto him, Lo! we have left all and
followed thee; what, I pray thee, shall we receive? (28)Then said Jesus
unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye who have followed me in the
regeneration, when the Son of man shall sit on the throne of his glory,
ye also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of
Israel. (29)And every one who hath left family, or brethren, or
sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my

eternal. (30)But many, now first, will be the last; and last, who will

came, who began about the eleventh hour, they received each a denarius.
(10)But when the first came, they expected that they should receive
more; and they also received every man a denarius. (11)But when they

(12)saying, These last have wrought only a single hour, and thou hast
put them on an equality with us, who have borne the burden and heat of
