rotherham Matthew:18:1-9
rotherham@Matthew:18:1 @ In that hour came, the disciples unto Jesus, saying Who then is, greatest, in the kingdom of the heavens?
rotherham@Matthew:18:2 @ And, calling near a child, he set it in the midst of them,
rotherham@Matthew:18:3 @ and said Verily, I say unto you, Except ye turn and become as the children, in nowise, shall ye enter into the kingdom of the heavens.
rotherham@Matthew:18:4 @ Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this child, the same, is the greatest, in the kingdom of the heavens;
rotherham@Matthew:18:5 @ And, whosoever shall give welcome unto one such child as this, upon my name, unto me, giveth welcome.
rotherham@Matthew:18:6 @ And, whosoever shall cause to stumble one of these little ones who believe in me, it profiteth him, that there be hung a large mill-stone about his neck, and he be sunk in the wide main of the sea.
rotherham@Matthew:18:7 @ Alas for the world! by reason of the causes of stumbling; for it is, necessary, that the causes of stumbling come, nevertheless, alas for the man through whom the cause of stumbling cometh!
rotherham@Matthew:18:8 @ But, if, thy hand or thy foot, be causing thee to stumble, cut it off, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly for thee, to enter into life, maimed or lame, rather than, having two hands or two feet, to be cast into the age-abiding fire.
rotherham@Matthew:18:9 @ And, if, thine eye, causeth thee to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from thee: It is, seemly, for thee, one-eyed, into life, to enter, rather than, having two eyes, to be cast into the fiery gehenna.
