Jesus Predicts His Death a Second Time 43While everyone was marveling at all that Jesus did, he said to his disciples, 43And they were all amazed at the greatness of God. 44“Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men.”

Jesus Predicts His Death a Second Time 43While everyone was marveling at all that Jesus did, he said to his disciples, 43And they were all amazed at the greatness of God. 44“Listen carefully to what I am about to tell you: The Son of Man is going to be delivered into the hands of men.”

45But they did not understand what this meant. It was hidden from them, so that they did not grasp it, and they were afraid to ask him about it. 46An argument started among the disciples as to which of them would be the greatest. 47Jesus, knowing their thoughts, took a little child and had him stand beside him.

48Then 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.”

49“Master,” said John, “we saw someone driving out demons in your name and we tried to stop him, because he is not one of us.”
