但你們卻不要這樣；你們中間最大的，應當像最小的；作首領的，應當像服事人的。

但你們呢、不是這樣：你們中間較大的、倒要成為較年少的；為領袖的、倒要成為服事人的。

爾則不然、爾中為大者、當若少、為首者、當若役、

惟爾曹不可、爾中為大者當若少、為首者當若役、

惟爾曹不可如此、爾曹中為大者當如少、為首者當如役、

But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves.

But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.

But among you it will be different. Those who are the greatest among you should take the lowest rank, and the leader should be like a servant.

Jesus sat down and called for the 12 disciples to come to him. Then he said,“ Anyone who wants to be first must be the very last. They must be the servant of everyone.”

“ But you shouldn’t be called‘ Rabbi.’ You have only one Teacher, and you are all brothers.Do not call anyone on earth‘ father.’ You have one Father, and he is in heaven.You shouldn’t be called‘ teacher.’ You have one Teacher, and he is the Messiah.The most important person among you will be your servant.People who lift themselves up will be made humble. And people who make themselves humble will be lifted up.

Jesus said,“ What I’m about to tell you is true. You need to change and become like little children. If you don’t, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven.Anyone who takes the humble position of this child is the most important in the kingdom of heaven.Anyone who welcomes a little child like this one in my name welcomes me.
