Contextual Overview
18A ruler asked him, “Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 19“Why do you call me good?” 20You know the commandments: Do not commit adultery; do not murder; do not steal; do not bear false witness; honor your father and mother.” 21“I have kept all these from my youth,” he said. 22When Jesus heard this, he told him, “You still lack one thing: Sell all you have and distribute it to the poor, 23After he heard this, he became extremely sad, because he was very rich. 24Seeing that he became sad, Jesus said, “How hard it is for those who have wealth to enter the kingdom of God! 25For it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” 26Those who heard this asked, “Then who can be saved?” 27He replied, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”

lo, we have left all: the Arabic version reads, "all ours"; all we had, our friends, trades, and worldly substance;
and followed thee: in Matthew 19:27 it is added, "what shall we have therefore"; referring to the promise of Christ, to the young man, that should he sell all he had, and give it to the poor, he should have treasure in heaven; Matthew 19:27- :.
