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

46. And there arose a reasoning among them, which of them should be 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.

49. And John answered and said, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbade him, because he followeth not with us.
