22 At this the man's face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.
22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
22 Disheartened by the saying, he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
22 The man's face clouded over. This was the last thing he expected to hear, and he walked off with a heavy heart. He was holding on tight to a lot of things, and not about to let go.
22 But he was sad at this word, and went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions.
22 At this the man's face fell, and he went away sad, for he had many possessions.

Commentary on Mark 10:17-22
(Read Mark 10:17-22)
This young ruler showed great earnestness. He asked what he should do now, that he might be happy for ever. Most ask for good to be had in this world; any good, Matthew 6:24, Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
