Mark 9:33-39

³³They went to that town Capernaum. After his men had entered the house Jesus asked them, “As we were coming why were you arguing with each other?”

³⁴They stayed silent. They didn't answer him. As they were going along they were arguing with each other. In this way they were saying to each other, “Who among us will be boss for us all?”

³⁵After sitting down Jesus called them to him. He said to them, “Maybe you want to be boss, make yourself small, do good to everyone.”

³⁶After that he called a child, after leading him he stood him in front of them. After hugging him he said to them,

³⁷“Maybe you will do good to someone like this child to please me. That good thing you did for the child, that same good thing you also did to me. God sent me. Because of that when you do good to me you will make me happy, you will make God happy also.”

³⁸John told Jesus, “Teacher, we saw a man, he was expelling demons from people in your name. That man does not belong to our mob. After that we told him not to do like that.”

³⁹Jesus replied, “Don't prevent him. Truly those who have done a good big thing in my name will not on another day say something bad about me to others.
