| Deuteronomy 5
16 \"Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you.
Matthew 19
16 Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, \"Teacher, what good thing must I do to get eternal life?\"
17 \"Why do you ask me about what is good?\" Jesus replied. \"There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments.\"
18 \"Which ones?\" the man inquired.
19 Jesus replied, \" \'Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother,\' and \'love your neighbor as yourself.\' \"
20 \"All these I have kept,\" the young man said. \"What do I still lack?\"
21 Jesus answered, \"If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.\"
22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.
