Marko 9:35-39
35
Akaketi chini, akawaita wote kumi na wawili, akawaambia: “Kama mtu yeyote akitaka kuwa wa kwanza, hana budi kuwa wa mwisho na mtumishi wa wote.”
36
Kisha akamchukua mtoto mdogo, akamsimamisha katikati yao. Akamkumbatia, akawaambia,
37
“Mtu yeyote amkaribishaye mmoja wa hawa watoto wadogo kwa Jina langu, anikaribisha mimi. Naye anikaribishaye mimi, amkaribisha Baba yangu aliyenituma.”
38
Yohana akamwambia, “Mwalimu, tumemwona mtu akitoa pepo wachafu kwa jina lako, nasi tukamkataza, kwa sababu yeye si mmoja wetu.”
39
Yesu akasema, “Msimkataze, kwa kuwa hakuna yeyote atendaye miujiza kwa Jina langu ambaye baada ya kitambo kidogo aweza kunena lolote baya dhidi yangu.
