33Then He came to Capernaum; and once in the house He asked them, “What were you debating among yourselves on the road?”
34But they kept silent, because on the road they had debated among themselves who was greater.
35So He sat down, called the twelve and said to them, “If anyone desires to be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.”
36Then He took a child and stood him in their midst, and embracing him said to them,
37“Whoever receives one such child in my name receives me, and whoever receives me receives not only me, but the One who sent me.”
38So John answered Him saying, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, one who doesn't follow us; and we forbade him, because he doesn't follow us.”
39But Jesus said: “Do not forbid him, because no one who works a miracle in my name can soon afterward speak evil of me.
