New Testament

Luke 9:43-50 The Scriptures 1998 (ISR98)

43. And they were all amazed at the greatness of Elohim. And while all were marvelling at all that יהושע did, He said to His taught ones,

44. “Lay up in your ears these words, for the Son of Aḏam is about to be delivered into the hands of men.”

45. But they did not understand this saying, and it was veiled from them so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to ask Him about this saying.

46. And a reasoning arose among them, who might be the greater of them.

47. And יהושע, having seen the reasoning of their heart, took a little child and placed him by His side,

48. and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in My Name receives Me. And whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all, he shall be great.”

49. And Yoḥanan answering, said, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in Your Name, and we forbade him because he does not follow with us.”

50. But יהושע said to him, “Do not forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”
