1 In that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who then is greater in the kingdom of the heavens?”

2 And having summoned a little child, He set him in their midst

3 and said, “Truly I say to you?, if you? shall not be turned and become as the little children, you? shall never enter into the kingdom of the heavens.

4 Therefore whoever will humble himself like this little child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of the heavens.

5 And whoever shall receive one such little child in My name, he receives Me.

6 And whoever might cause to stumble one of these little ones believing in Me, it is better for him that a heavy millstone should be hung around his neck and he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.

7 Woe to the world because of the stumbling blocks. For it is a necessity that the stumbling blocks come, but woe to the man through whom the stumbling block comes!
