Matthew 18:4 in Context — Matthew 18

2 Então Jesus chamou a si uma criança, e a pôs no meio deles,

3 e disse: Em verdade vos digo, que se vós não converterdes, e fordes como crianças, de maneira nenhuma entrareis no Reino dos céus.

4 Assim, qualquer um que for humilde como esta criança, este é o maior no reino dos céus.

5 E qualquer um que receber a uma criança como esta em meu nome, recebe a mim.

6 Mas qualquer um que conduzir ao pecado a um destes pequeninos que creem em mim, melhor lhe fora que uma grande pedra de moinho lhe fosse pendurada ao pescoço, e se afundasse no fundo do mar.
