Mark 9:35-40

35And sitting down, He called the twelve and said to them, “1If anyone wants to be first, he shall be last of all and servant of all.” 36And He took a child and placed him among them, and taking him in His arms, He said to them, 37“2Whoever 3receives 4one child like this in My name 5receives Me; and whoever 6receives Me does not 7receive Me, but Him who sent Me.”

388John said to Him, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and 9we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” 39But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him, for there is no one who will perform a miracle in My name, and be able soon afterward to speak evil of Me. 4010For the one who is not against us is 11for us.
