| 1. | AT that hour the disciples came to Jesus, saying: Who thinkest thou is the greater in the kingdom of heaven? | In illa hora accesserunt discipuli ad Jesum, dicentes : Quis, putas, major est in regno cælorum ? | εν εκεινη τη ωρα προσηλθον οι μαθηται τω ιησου λεγοντες τις αρα μειζων εστιν εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων |
| 2. | And Jesus calling unto him a little child, set him in the midst of them, | Et advocans Jesus parvulum, statuit eum in medio eorum, | και προσκαλεσαμενος ο ιησους παιδιον εστησεν αυτο εν μεσω αυτων |
| 3. | And said: Amen I say to you, unless you be converted, and become as little children, you shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven. | et dixit : Amen dico vobis, nisi conversi fueritis, et efficiamini sicut parvuli, non intrabitis in regnum cælorum. | και ειπεν αμην λεγω υμιν εαν μη στραφητε και γενησθε ως τα παιδια ου μη εισελθητε εις την βασιλειαν των ουρανων |
| 4. | Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, he is the greater in the kingdom of heaven. | Quicumque ergo humiliaverit se sicut parvulus iste, hic est major in regno cælorum. | οστις ουν ταπεινωσει εαυτον ως το παιδιον τουτο ουτος εστιν ο μειζων εν τη βασιλεια των ουρανων |
| 5. | And he that shall receive one such little child in my name, receiveth me. | Et qui susceperit unum parvulum talem in nomine meo, me suscipit : | και ος εαν δεξηται παιδιον τοιουτον εν επι τω ονοματι μου εμε δεχεται |
| [...] | |||
| 10. | See that you despise not one of these little ones: for I say to you, that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father who is in heaven. | Videte ne contemnatis unum ex his pusillis : dico enim vobis, quia angeli eorum in cælis semper vident faciem Patris mei, qui in cælis est. | ορατε μη καταφρονησητε ενος των μικρων τουτων λεγω γαρ υμιν οτι οι αγγελοι αυτων εν ουρανοις δια παντος βλεπουσιν το προσωπον του πατρος μου του εν ουρανοις |
| [...] | |||
| 12. | What think you? If a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them should go astray: doth he not leave the ninety-nine in the mountains, and go to seek that which is gone astray? | Quid vobis videtur ? si fuerint alicui centum oves, et erravit una ex eis : nonne relinquit nonaginta novem in montibus, et vadit quærere eam quæ erravit ? | τι υμιν δοκει εαν γενηται τινι ανθρωπω εκατον προβατα και πλανηθη εν εξ αυτων ουχι αφεις τα ενενηκοντα εννεα επι τα ορη πορευθεις ζητει το πλανωμενον |
| 13. | And if it so be that he find it: Amen I say to you, he rejoiceth more for that, than for the ninety-nine that went not astray. | Et si contigerit ut inveniat eam : amen dico vobis, quia gaudet super eam magis quam super nonaginta novem, quæ non erraverunt. | και εαν γενηται ευρειν αυτο αμην λεγω υμιν οτι χαιρει επ αυτω μαλλον η επι τοις ενενηκοντα εννεα τοις μη πεπλανημενοις |
| 14. | Even so it is not the will of your Father, who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. | Sic non est voluntas ante Patrem vestrum, qui in cælis est, ut pereat unus de pusillis istis. | ουτως ουκ εστιν θελημα εμπροσθεν του πατρος υμων του εν ουρανοις ινα αποληται εις των μικρων τουτων |

As a young girl, Clare dedicated herself to prayer. At 18-years-old, she heard St. Francis of Assisi preach during a Lenten service in the church of San Giorgio and asked him to help her live according to the Gospel. On Palm Sunday in 1212, Clare left her father’s home and went to the chapel of the Porziuncula to meet with Francis. While there, Clare’s hair was cut off and she was given a plain robe and veil in exchange for her rich gown
