New Testament

Luke 9:44-48 American Standard Version (ASV)

44. Let these words sink into your ears: for the Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men.

45. But they understood not this saying, and it was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

46. And there arose a reasoning among them, which of them was the greatest.

47. But when Jesus saw the reasoning of their heart, he took a little child, and set him by his side,

48. and said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this little child in my name receiveth me: and whosoever shall receive me receiveth him that sent me: for he that is least among you all, the same is great.
