1 AT that time came the disciples to Jesus, saying, Who is indeed the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 2 And Jesus calling a little boy, set him in the midst of them, 3 and said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be changed and be as little children, ye shall in no wise enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself, as this little child, he shall be greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 And whosoever shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me. 6 And whosoever shall cause one of these little ones, who believe in me, to stumble, it were better for him that a millstone was hung at his neck, and that he was sunk in the depth of the sea. 7 Wo to the world because of offences! for there is a necessity that offences come: nevertheless, wo to that man by whom the offence cometh!
