Luke 9:43-48

43And they were all amazed at the 12greatness of God.

3But while everyone was marveling at all that He was doing, He said to His disciples, 44“Let these words sink into your ears; 4for the Son of Man is going to be 5delivered into the hands of men.” 45But 6they 7did not understand this statement, and it was concealed from them so that they would not perceive it; and they were afraid to ask Him about this statement.

468An argument 9started among them as to which of them might be the greatest. 47But Jesus, 10knowing 11what they were thinking in their heart, took a child and stood him by His side, 48and said to them, “12Whoever receives this child in My name receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me; 13for the one who is least among all of you, this is the one who is great.”
