1
At that hour came the disciples near to Jesus, saying, `Who, now, is greater in the reign of the heavens?'
2
And Jesus having called near a child, did set him in the midst of them,
3
and said, `Verily I say to you, if ye may not be turned and become as the children, ye may not enter into the reign of the heavens;
4
whoever then may humble himself as this child, he is the greater in the reign of the heavens.
5
`And he who may receive one such child in my name, doth receive me,
6
and whoever may cause to stumble one of those little ones who are believing in me, it is better for him that a weighty millstone may be hanged upon his neck, and he may be sunk in the depth of the sea.
