For he went on teaching his disciples and said unto them, The Son of man is delivered into hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after he is dead, he shall rise the third day.
32
But they did not understand this word and were afraid to ask him.
33
And he came to Capernaum; and being in the house he asked them, What was it that ye disputed among yourselves on the way?
34
But they were silent; for on the way they had disputed among themselves, who
should be the greatest.
35
Then, sitting down, he called the twelve and said unto them, If anyone desires to be first,
the same shall be last of all and servant of all.
36
And taking a child, he set him in the midst of them; and taking him in his arms, he said unto them,
37
Whosoever shall receive one of such children in my name, receives me; and whosoever shall receive me, receives not me, but him that sent me.

And if thy hand causes thee to fall, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into life maimed than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that can never be quenched,
44
where their worm does not die, and the fire is never quenched.
45
And if thy foot causes thee to fall, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter halt into life than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that can never be quenched,
46
where their worm does not die, and the fire is never quenched.
47
And if thine eye causes thee to fall, pluck it out; it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye than having two eyes to be cast into hell,
48
where their worm does not die, and the fire is never quenched.
49
For every one shall be salted with fire, and every sacrifice shall be salted with salt.

Salt
is good, but if the salt has lost its saltness, with what will ye season it? Have salt in yourselves, and have peace one with another.
