Suffer the little children to come unto me

Saint Mark - Chapter 10

Suffer the little children to come unto me. J-J Tissot

[13] Et offerebant illi parvulos ut tangeret illos. Discipuli autem comminabantur offerentibus.
And they brought to him young children, that he might touch them. And the disciples rebuked them that brought them.

[14] Quos cum videret Jesus, indigne tulit, et ait illis : Sinite parvulos venire ad me, et ne prohibueritis eos : talium enim est regnum Dei.
Whom when Jesus saw, he was much displeased, and saith to them: Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not; for of such is the kingdom of God.


[15] Amen dico vobis : Quisquis non receperit regnum Dei velut parvulus, non intrabit in illud.
Amen I say to you, whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, shall not enter into it.

[16] Et complexans eos, et imponens manus super illos, benedicebat eos.
And embracing them, and laying his hands upon them, he blessed them.

Saint Luke - Chapter 18

[15] Afferebant autem ad illum et infantes, ut eos tangeret. Quod cum viderent discipuli, increpabant illos.
And they brought unto him also infants, that he might touch them. Which when the disciples saw, they rebuked them.

[16] Jesus autem convocans illos, dixit : Sinite pueros venire ad me, et nolite vetare eos : talium est enim regnum Dei.
But Jesus, calling them together, said: Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

[17] Amen dico vobis, quicumque non acceperit regnum Dei sicut puer, non intrabit in illud.
Amen, I say to you: Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a child, shall not enter into it.

Totus tuus ego sum 

Et omnia mea tua sunt;

Tecum semper tutus sum:
