Matthew 19:13-15 - Little Children Brought To Jesus

¹³ Then little children were brought to Him, that He should put His hands on them and pray. And the disciples rebuked them. ¹⁴ But Jesus said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of Heaven. ¹⁵ And He laid His hands on them, and departed from there.

¹³ And they brought children to Him, so that He should touch them. And His disciples rebuked those bringing them. ¹⁴ But when Jesus saw, He was much displeased and said to them, Allow the little children to come to Me and do not hinder them. For of such is the kingdom of God. ¹⁵ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter into it. ¹⁶ And taking them up in His arms, He put His hands on them and blessed them.

¹⁵ And they also brought infants to Him, that He might touch them. But when the disciples saw, they rebuked them. ¹⁶ But Jesus called them and said, Allow the little children to come to Me, and forbid them not. For of such is the kingdom of God. ¹⁷ Truly I say to you, Whoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no way enter into it.
