Mark 9:33-37

World English Bible

³³ He came to Capernaum, and when he was in the house he asked them, “What were you arguing among yourselves on the way?”

³⁴ But they were silent, for they had disputed with one another on the way about who was the greatest.

³⁵ He sat down, and called the twelve; and he said to them, “If any man wants to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.” ³⁶ He took a little child, and set him in the middle of them. Taking him in his arms, he said to them, ³⁷ “Whoever receives one such little child in my name, receives me, and whoever receives me, doesn’t receive me, but him who sent me.”
