41. And in response, Jesus said: "O unfaithful and perverse generation! How long will I be with you and endure you? Bring your son here."
42. And as he was approaching him, the demon threw him down and convulsed him.
43. And Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, and he healed the boy, and he restored him to his father.
44. And all were astonished at the greatness of God. And as everyone was wondering over all that he was doing, he said to his disciples: "You must set these words in your hearts. For it shall be that the Son of man will be delivered into the hands of men."
45. But they did not understood this word, and it was concealed from them, so that they did not perceive it. And they were afraid to question him about this word.
46. Now an idea entered into them, as to which of them was greater.
47. But Jesus, perceiving the thoughts of their hearts, took a child and stood him beside him.
48. And he said to them: "Whoever will receive this child in my name, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives him who sent me. For whoever is the lesser among you all, the same is greater."
49. And responding, John said: "Teacher, we saw a certain one casting out demons in your name. And we prohibited him, for he does not follow with us."
50. And Jesus said to him: "Do not prohibit him. For whoever is not against you, is for you."
51. Now it happened that, while the days of his dissipation were being completed, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem.
52. And he sent messengers before his face. And going on, they entered into a city of the Samaritans, to prepare for him.
53. And they would not receive him, because his face was going toward Jerusalem.
54. And when his disciples, James and John, had seen this, they said, "Lord, do you want us to call for fire to descend from heaven and consume them?"
55. And turning, he rebuked them, saying: "Do you not know of whose spirit you are?
56. The Son of man came, not to destroy lives, but to save them." And they went into another town.
