| Καὶ ἦλθον εἰς Καφαρναούμ. καὶ ἐν τῇ οἰκίᾳ γενόμενος ἐπηρώτα αὐτούς, Τί ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ διελογίζεσθὲ; |
And they came to Caper'na-um; and when he was in the house he asked them, "What were you discussing on the way?" | Who is the Greatest? Mk.9.33-37 | Mt.18.1-5 | Lk.9.46-48 |
| οἱ δὲ ἐσιώπων, πρὸς ἀλλήλους γὰρ διελέχθησαν ἐν τῇ ὁδῷ τίς μείζων. |
But they were silent; for on the way they had discussed with one another who was the greatest. | |
| καὶ καθίσας ἐφώνησεν τοὺς δώδεκα καὶ λέγει αὐτοῖς, Εἴ τις θέλει πρῶτος εἶναι ἐσται πάντων ἐσχατος καὶ πάντων διάκονος. |
And he sat down and called the twelve; and he said to them, "If any one would be first, he must be last of all and servant of all." | |
| καὶ λαβὼν παιδίον ἐστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν καὶ ἐναγκαλισάμενος αὐτὸ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς, |
And he took a child, and put him in the midst of them; and taking him in his arms, he said to them, | |
| Ὃς ἂν ἓν τῶν τοιούτων παιδίων δέξηται ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ἐμὲ δέχεται· καὶ ὃς ἂν ἐμὲ δέχηται, οὐκ ἐμὲ δέχεται ἀλλὰ τὸν ἀποστείλαντά με. |
"Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not me but him who sent me." | |
