But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

Ihr aber nicht also! Sondern der Größte unter euch soll sein wie der Jüngste, und der Vornehmste wie ein Diener.
Mas vosotros, no así: antes el que es mayor entre vosotros, sea como el más mozo; y el que es príncipe, como el que sirve.
Pero ustedes no deben ser así. Al contrario, el mayor entre ustedes debe hacerse como el más joven, y el que dirige, como el que sirve.
Qu'il n'en soit pas de même pour vous. Mais que le plus grand parmi vous soit comme le plus petit, et celui qui gouverne comme celui qui sert.
Ma non già così voi; anzi, il maggiore fra voi sia come il minore, e quel che regge come quel che ministra.
Mas não sereis vós assim; antes o maior entre vós seja como o menor; e quem governa como quem serve.
但你們不可這樣。你們中間最大的,倒要成為最小的;為領袖的,倒要像服事人的。
