Mark 9:35-40

35

Sitting downG2523, Jesus calledG5455 theG3588 TwelveG1427 andG2532 saidG3004, “IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wantsG2309 to beG1510 firstG4413, he must beG1510 the lastG2078 of allG3956 andG2532 the servantG1249 of allG3956.”

36ThenG2532 He hadG2983G2476 a little child standG3813 amongG1722G3319 themG846. Taking the child in His armsG1723G846, He saidG2036 to themG846, 37“WhoeverG3739G302 welcomesG1209 oneG1520 of theseG5108 little childrenG3813 inG1909 MyG1473 nameG3686 welcomesG1209 MeG1473, andG2532 whoeverG3739G302 welcomesG1209 MeG1473 welcomesG1209 not onlyG3756 MeG1473, butG235 theG3588 One who sentG649 MeG1473.”

JohnG2491 saidG5346 to HimG846, “TeacherG1320, we sawG3708 someoneG5100 elseG3739G3756G190G1473 driving outG1544 demonsG1140 inG1722 YourG4771 nameG3686, andG2532 we tried to stopG2967 himG846, becauseG3754G3756 he does not accompanyG190 usG1473.”

39“Do notG3361 stopG2967 himG846,” JesusG2424 repliedG2036. “ForG1063 no oneG3762 whoG3739 performsG4160 a miracleG1411 inG1909 MyG1473 nameG3686 canG1410 turn aroundG5035 andG2532 speak evil ofG2551 MeG1473. 40ForG1063 whoeverG3739 isG1510 notG3756 againstG2596 usG1473 isG1510 forG5228 usG1473.
