SEV Biblia, Chapter 18:27
Y l les dijo: Lo que es imposible para con los hombres, posible es para Dios.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 27. And he said , etc.] That is, Jesus, as the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions express it: the things which are impossible with men, are possible with God ; (see Gill on Matthew 19:26).
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 18-30 - Many have a great deal in them very commendable, yet perish for lack of some one thing; so this ruler could not bear Christ's terms, whic would part between him and his estate. Many who are loth to leav Christ, yet do leave him. After a long struggle between their convictions and their corruptions, their corruptions carry the day They are very sorry that they cannot serve both; but if one must be quitted, it shall be their God, not their wordly gain. Their boaste obedience will be found mere outside show; the love of the world in some form or other lies at the root. Men are apt to speak too much of what they have left and lost, of what they have done and suffered for Christ, as Peter did. But we should rather be ashamed that there ha been any regret or difficulty in doing it.

Robertson's NT Word Studies
18:27 {The impossible with men possible with God} (ta adunata para anqrwpois dunata para twi qewi). Paradoxical, but true. Take your stand "beside" (para) God and the impossible becomes possible. Clearly qen Jesus meant the humanly impossible by the parabolic proverb about the camel going through the needle's eye. God can break the grip of gold on a man's life, but even Jesus failed with this young ruler.
