Matthew 19:10-15

English Standard Version

¹⁰ The disciples said to him, “If such is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry.” ¹¹ But he said to them, ^(A)“Not everyone can receive this saying, but only ^(B)those to ^(C)whom it is given. ¹² For there are eunuchs who have been so from birth, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who have made themselves eunuchs ^(D)for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. Let the one who is able to receive this receive it.”

Let the Children Come to Me

^13 (E)Then children were brought to him that he might lay his hands on them and pray. The disciples ^(F)rebuked the people, ¹⁴ but Jesus said, ^(G)“Let the little children ^(H)come to me and do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven.” ¹⁵ And he laid his hands on them and went away.
