Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.	And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me.	But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and [that] he were drowned in the depth of the sea.
