And said, ‹Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.›

‹Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.›

‹And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.›

‹But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and› [that] ‹he were drowned in the depth of the sea.›

‹Woe unto the world because of offences! for it must needs be that offences come; but woe to that man by whom the offence cometh!›

‹Wherefore if thy hand or thy foot offend thee, cut them off, and cast› [them] ‹from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life halt or maimed, rather than having two hands or two feet to be cast into everlasting fire.›

‹And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast› [it] ‹from thee: it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire.›

‹Take heed that ye despise not one of these little ones; for I say unto you, That in heaven their angels do always behold the face of my Father which is in heaven.›

‹For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.›

‹How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray?›

‹Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.›

Jesus saith unto him, ‹I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.›

‹Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.›
