New Living Translation

Luke 9:43-47 New Living Translation (NLT)

43. Awe gripped the people as they saw this majestic display of God’s power.While everyone was marveling at everything he was doing, Jesus said to his disciples,

44. “Listen to me and remember what I say. The Son of Man is going to be betrayed into the hands of his enemies.”

45. But they didn’t know what he meant. Its significance was hidden from them, so they couldn’t understand it, and they were afraid to ask him about it.

46. Then his disciples began arguing about which of them was the greatest.

47. But Jesus knew their thoughts, so he brought a little child to his side.
