Luke 22:22-32

22 And truly the Son of man goeth , as it was determined : but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed !
23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which * of them it was that should do this thing.
24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted * the greatest.
25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
26 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 .
27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat , or he that serveth ? is not he that sitteth at meat ? but I am among * you as he that serveth .
28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;
30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the Lord said , Simon, Simon, behold , Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted , strengthen thy brethren.
