Luke 9:46-56

461An argumentG1261 2startedG1525 amongG1722 them as to whichG5101 of them might be the greatestG3173. 47But JesusG2424, 3knowingG3609 4whatG1261 they were thinkingG1261 in their heartG2588, tookG1949 a childG3813 and stoodG2476 him by His sideG3844, 48and saidG3004 to them, “5WhoeverG3739G1437 receivesG1209 thisG3778 childG3813 in My nameG3686 receivesG1209 Me, and whoeverG3739G302 receivesG1209 Me receivesG1209 Him who sentG649 Me; 6for the oneG3588 who is leastG3398 amongG1722 allG3956 of you, thisG3778 is the one who is greatG3173.”

497JohnG2491 answeredG611 and saidG3004, “8MasterG1988, we sawG3708 someoneG5100 castingG1544 out demonsG1140 in Your nameG3686; and we tried to preventG2967 him becauseG3754 he does not followG190 along with us.” 50But JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “Do not hinderG2967 him; 9for he whoG3739 is not againstG2596 you is 10for you.”

51WhenG1722 the daysG2250 were approachingG4845 for 11His 12ascensionG354, He 13was determinedG4741 14to goG4198 to JerusalemG2419; 52and He sentG649 messengersG32 on aheadG4253G4383 of Him, and they wentG4198 and enteredG1525 a villageG2968 of the 15SamaritansG4541 to 16makeG2090 arrangementsG2090 for Him. 53But they did not receiveG1209 Him, 17becauseG3754 18He was travelingG4198 towardG1519 JerusalemG2419. 54When His disciplesG3101 19JamesG2385 and JohnG2491 sawG3708 this, they saidG3004, “LordG2962, do You wantG2309 us to 20commandG3004 fireG4442 to comeG2597 downG2597 from heavenG3772 and consumeG355 them?” 55But He turnedG4762 and rebukedG2008 them, [21and saidG3004, “You do not knowG3609 whatG4169 kindG4169 of spiritG4151 you are of; 56for the SonG5207 of ManG444 did not comeG2064 to destroyG622 men’sG444 livesG5590, but to saveG4982 them.”] And they wentG4198 on to anotherG2087 villageG2968.
