Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.

As newborn babes, desire the sincere milk of the word, that ye may grow thereby:

Brethren, be not children in understanding: howbeit in malice be ye children, but in understanding be men.

Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.

As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:

Surely I have behaved and quieted myself, as a child that is weaned of his mother: my soul is even as a weaned child.

And now, O LORD my God, thou hast made thy servant king instead of David my father: and I am but a little child: I know not how to go out or come in.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
