Mark 9:35-40

35SittingG2523 downG2523, He calledG5455 the twelveG1427 and saidG3004 to them, “1IfG1487 anyoneG5100 wantsG2309 to be firstG4413, 2he shall be lastG2078 of allG3956 and servantG1249 of allG3956.” 36TakingG2983 a childG3813, He setG2476 him 3beforeG1722G3319 them, and takingG1723 him in His armsG1723, He saidG3004 to them, 37“4WhoeverG3739G302 receivesG1209 5oneG1520 childG3813 likeG5108 thisG5108 in My nameG3686 receivesG1209 Me; and whoeverG3739G302 receivesG1209 Me does not receiveG1209 Me, but Him who sentG649 Me.”

386JohnG2491 saidG5346 to Him, “TeacherG1320, we sawG3708 someoneG5100 castingG1544 out demonsG1140 in Your nameG3686, and 7we tried to preventG2967 him becauseG3754 he was not followingG190 us.” 39But JesusG2424 saidG3004, “Do not hinderG2967 him, for there is noG3762 oneG3762 whoG3739 will performG4160 a miracleG1411 in My nameG3686, and be ableG1410 soonG5035 afterwardG5035 to speakG2551 evilG2551 of Me. 408For he whoG3739 is not againstG2596 us is 9for us.
