New American Standard Bible
Chapter 18
1At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, 'Who then is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?' 2And He called a child to Himself and set him among them, 3and said, 'Truly I say to you, unless you change and become like children, you will not enter the kingdom of heaven. 4So whoever will humble himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5And whoever receives one such child in My name, receives Me; 6but whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to sin, it is better for him that a heavy millstone be hung around his neck, and that he be drowned in the depths of the sea.King James Version
Chapter 18
1At the same time came the disciples unto Jesus, saying, Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 2And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. 4Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5And whoso shall receive one such little child in my name receiveth me. 6But whoso shall offend one of these little ones which believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and that he were drowned in the depth of the sea.Christian Standard Bible

" 2He called a small child and had him stand among them. 3"Truly I tell you," he said, "unless you turn and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. 4Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child--this one is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5And whoever welcomes one child like this in my name welcomes me.New Living Translation
