And said unto them, Whosoever shall receive this child in My name receiveth Me: and whosoever shall receive Me receiveth Him that sent Me: for he that is least among you all, the same shall be great. |
and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in My name receives Me and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me. For he who is least among you all will be great.” |
and He said to them, “Whoever receives this child in My name receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives Him who sent Me; for the one who is least among all of you, this is the one who is great.” |
Then He said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child in My name welcomes Me; and whoever welcomes Me welcomes the One who sent Me. For it is the one who is least among you all who is the greatest.” |
and He told them, “Whoever welcomes this child in My name welcomes Me; and whoever welcomes Me [also] welcomes Him who sent Me; for the one who is least among all of you [that is, the one who is genuinely humble—the one with a realistic self-view]—he is the one who is [truly] great.” |
and said to them, Whoever takes this little child into his family in order to bring it up and educate it in My Name, Me he receives. And whoever welcomes Me, welcomes the One who sent Me on a mission. For he who is least among you, this one is great. |
And then He said to them, “Anyone who accepts a little child in My name is really accepting Me, and the man who accepts Me is really accepting the One who sent Me. It is the humblest among you all who is really the greatest.” |
Then He said to them, “Whoever welcomes this little child on My account is welcoming Me, and whoever welcomes Me is welcoming Him who sent Me; for the one who is lowliest among you all is really great.” |
