Who Is the Greatest?(A)
46 (B)Then a dispute arose among them as to which of them would be greatest. 47 And Jesus, (C)perceiving the thought of their heart, took a (D)little child and set him by Him, 48 and said to them, (E)“Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and (F)whoever receives Me (G)receives Him who sent Me. (H)For he who is least among you all will be great.”
