Mark 9:30 - Mark 9:40
30 And he came to Capernaum; and being in the house, he asked them, Why was it that ye disputed among yourselves by the way?
31 But they held their peace, being afraid, for by the way they had disputed among themselves, who was the greatest among them.
32 Now Jesus sat down and called the twelve, and said unto them. If any man desire to be first, he shall be last of all, and servant of all.
33 And he took a child, and sat in the midst of them; and when he had taken the child in his arms, he said unto them,
34 Whosoever shall humble himself like one of these children, and receiveth me, ye shall receive in my name.
35 And whosoever shall receive me, receiveth not me only, but him that sent me, even the Father.
36 And John spake unto him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followed not us; and we forbade him, because he followed not us.
37 But Jesus said, Forbid him not; for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can speak evil of me. For he that is not against us is on our part.
38 And whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink, in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, He shall not lose his reward.
39 And whosoever shall offend one of these little ones that believe in me, it is better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he were cast into the sea.
40 Therefore, if thy hand offend thee, cut it off; or if thy brother offend thee and confess not and forsake not, he shall be cut off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands, to go into hell.
