Matthew 19

Jesus Blesses Little Children

13 Some people brought their children to Jesus, so he could place his hands on them and pray for them. His disciples told the people to stop bothering him. 14 But Jesus said, "Let the children come to me, and don’t try to stop them! People who are like these children belong to God’s kingdom."*19.14 People who are like these children belong to God’s kingdom: Or "God’s kingdom belongs to people who are like these children."15 After Jesus had placed his hands on the children, he left.
