Mark 10:16

New International Version

And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them.

See the chapter Copy

He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”

He took a little child whom he placed among them. Taking the child in his arms, he said to them,

You will be blessed in the city and blessed in the country.
