45 Mas ellos no entendían esta palabra, y les era encubierta para que no la entendiesen; y temían preguntarle de esta palabra.

46 Entonces entraron en disputa, cuál de ellos sería el mayor.

47 Mas Jesús, viendo los pensamientos del corazón de ellos, tomó un niño, y púsole junto á sí,

48 Y les dice: Cualquiera que recibiere este niño en mi nombre, á mí recibe; y cualquiera que me recibiere á mí, recibe al que me envió; porque el que fuere el menor entre todos vosotros, éste será el grande.
