⁴⁸ and said to them, ^(A)“Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me; and ^(B)whoever receives Me ^(C)receives Him who sent Me. ^(D)For he who is least among you all will be great.”

^11 (A)For whoever exalts himself will be ^[a]humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

⁶ Therefore humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, that He may exalt you in due time,

A Cup of Cold Water^(A)

^40 (B)“He who receives you receives Me, and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. ^41 (C)He who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet shall receive a prophet’s reward. And he who receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man shall receive a righteous man’s reward. ^42 (D)And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.”

^20 (A)Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”

^26 (A)But not so among you; on the contrary, ^(B)he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.

^16 (A)He who hears you hears Me, ^(B)he who rejects you rejects Me, and ^(C)he who rejects Me rejects Him who sent Me.”

¹¹ But ^(A)he who is greatest among you shall be your servant. ^12 (B)And whoever exalts himself will be ^[a]humbled, and he who humbles himself will be ^[b]exalted.

²¹ To him who overcomes ^(A)I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
