² And Jesus having called near a child, did set him in the midst of them,

¹³ Then were brought near to him children that he might put hands on them and pray, and the disciples rebuked them.

¹⁴ But Jesus said, `Suffer the children, and forbid them not, to come unto me, for of such is the reign of the heavens;'

⁷ And now, O Jehovah my God, Thou hast caused thy servant to reign instead of David my father; and I `am' a little child, I do not know to go out and to come in;

⁷ And Jehovah saith unto me, `Do not say, I `am' a youth, for to all to whom I send thee thou goest, and all that I command thee thou speakest.

³⁶ And having taken a child, he set him in the midst of them, and having taken him in his arms, said to them,

³⁷ `Whoever may receive one of such children in my name, doth receive me, and whoever may receive me, doth not receive me, but Him who sent me.'
