Luke 9:43-48

43And they were allG3956 amazedG1605 at the 12greatnessG3168 of GodG2316.

3But while everyoneG3956 was marvelingG2296 at allG3956 that He was doingG4160, He saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, 44“Let theseG3778 wordsG3056 sinkG5087 into your earsG3775; 4for the SonG5207 of ManG444 is goingG3195 to be 5deliveredG3860 into the handsG5495 of menG444.” 45But 6they 7did not understandG50 thisG3778 statementG4487, and it was concealedG3871 from them soG2443 that they would not perceiveG143 it; and they were afraidG5399 to askG2065 Him aboutG4012 thisG3778 statementG4487.

468An argumentG1261 9startedG1525 amongG1722 them as to whichG5101 of them might be the greatestG3173. 47But JesusG2424, 10knowingG3609 11whatG1261 they were thinkingG1261 in their heartG2588, tookG1949 a childG3813 and stoodG2476 him by His sideG3844, 48and saidG3004 to them, “12WhoeverG3739G1437 receivesG1209 thisG3778 childG3813 in My nameG3686 receivesG1209 Me, and whoeverG3739G302 receivesG1209 Me receivesG1209 Him who sentG649 Me; 13for the oneG3588 who is leastG3398 amongG1722 allG3956 of you, thisG3778 is the one who is greatG3173.”
