25 Now look! a man versed in the Law stood up to test him and said: “Teacher, what do I need to do to inherit everlasting life?”+ 26 He said to him: “What is written in the Law? How do you read?” 27 In answer he said: “‘You must love Jehovah* your God with your whole heart and with your whole soul* and with your whole strength and with your whole mind’+ and ‘your neighbor as yourself.’”+ 28 He said to him: “You answered correctly; keep doing this and you will get life.”+
