Luke 9:42-53 World Messianic Bible (WMB)

42. While he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him violently. But Yeshua rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

43. They were all astonished at the majesty of God.But while all were marveling at all the things which Yeshua did, he said to his disciples,

44. “Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men.”

45. But they didn’t understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.

46. An argument arose among them about which of them was the greatest.

47. Yeshua, perceiving the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,

48. and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least among you all, this one will be great.”

49. Yochanan answered, “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he doesn’t follow with us.”

50. Yeshua said to him, “Don’t forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”

51. It came to pass, when the days were near that he should be taken up, he intently set his face to go to Jerusalem

52. and sent messengers before his face. They went and entered into a village of the Samaritans, so as to prepare for him.

53. They didn’t receive him, because he was traveling with his face set towards Jerusalem.
