| 18 1 | At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked, 'Who is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven?' | The Greatest in the Kingdom Mt.18.1-5 (Capernaum) | Mk.9.33-37 | Lk.9.46-48 | Ἐν ἐκείνῃ τῇ ὡρᾳ προσῆλθον οἱ μαθηταὶ τῷ Ἰησοῦ λέγοντες, Τίς ἀρα μείζων ἐστὶν ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῶν οὐρανῶν; |
|
| 2 | He called a child, set him in front of them, | | καὶ προσκαλεσάμενος παιδίον ἐστησεν αὐτὸ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν |
|
| 3 | and said, 'I tell you this: unless you turn round and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of Heaven. | | καὶ εἶπεν, Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν, ἐὰν μὴ στραφῆτε καὶ γένησθε ὡς τὰ παιδία, οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθητε εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν. |
|
| 4 | Let a man humble himself till he is like this child, and he will be the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven. | | ὁστις οὖν ταπεινώσει ἑαυτὸν ὡς τὸ παιδίον τοῦτο, οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ μείζων ἐν τῇ βασιλείᾳ τῶν οὐρανῶν. |

| 5 | Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me. | Temptations to Sin Mt.18.5-9 (Capernaum) | Mk.9.42-48 | Lk.17.1-2 | καὶ ὃς ἐὰν δέξηται ἓν παιδίον τοιοῦτο ἐπὶ τῷ ὀνόματί μου, ἐμὲ δέχεται. |
