20The Lord of Armies says:“Many peoplesand the inhabitants of many cities will yet come.21The inhabitants of one will go to another,saying, ‘Let’s go speedily to entreat the favor of the Lord,and to seek the Lord of Armies.I will go also.’22Yes, many peoplesand strong nations will come to seek the Lord of Armies in Jerusalemand to entreat the favor of the Lord.”23The Lord of Armies says:“In those days, ten men out of all the languages of the nations will take hold of the skirt of him who is a Jew,saying, ‘We will go with you,for we have heard that God is with you.’”

1His foundation is in the holy mountains.2The Lord loves the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.3Glorious things are spoken about you, city of God.

4I will record Rahab and Babylon among those who acknowledge me.Behold, Philistia, Tyre, and also Ethiopia:“This one was born there.”5Yes, of Zion it will be said, “This one and that one was born in her;”the Most High himself will establish her.

6The Lord will count, when he writes up the peoples,“This one was born there.”7Those who sing as well as those who dance say,“All my springs are in you.”

1In that hour the disciples came to Jesus,saying, “Who then is greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven?”

2Jesus called a little child to himself,and set him in the middle of them3and said, “Most certainly I tell you,unless you turn and become as little children,you will in no way enter into the Kingdom of Heaven.4Whoever therefore humbles himself as this little child is the greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.5Whoever receives one such little child in my name receives me,· · · verses 6–9 are not read10See that you don’t despise one of these little ones,for I tell youthat in heaven their angels always see the face of my Father who is in heaven.
