And again I say to you, it is lighter [or easier] a camel to pass through a needle’s eye [or the hole of a needle], than a rich man to enter into the kingdom of heavens.
And but those days had been abridged, each flesh, [or all flesh, that is, mankind], should not be made safe; but those days shall be made short, for the chosen men.
And but the Lord had abridged those days, all flesh, [or mankind], had not be safe; but for the chosen which he chose, the Lord hath made short the days.
