Luke 18:14-16
1599 Geneva Bible
14 I tell you, this man departed to his house, justified rather than the other: (A)for every man that exalteth himself shall be brought low, and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted.
15 ¶ (B)[a]They brought unto him also babes that he should touch them. [b]And when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them.
16 [c]But Jesus [d]called them unto him, and said, Suffer the babes to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
