And they were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going before them: and they were amazed; and they that followed were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were to happen unto him,
33
[saying],
Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests and the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him unto the Gentiles:
34
and they shall mock him, and shall spit upon him, and shall scourge him, and shall kill him; and after three days he shall rise again.
35
And there come near unto him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying unto him, Teacher, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall ask of thee.
36
And he said unto them,
What would ye that I should do for you?
37
And they said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and one on [thy] left hand, in thy glory.
38
But Jesus said unto them,
Ye know not what ye ask. Are ye able to drink the cup that I drink? or to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
39
And they said unto him, We are able. And Jesus said unto them,
The cup that I drink ye shall drink; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
40
but to sit on my right hand or on [my] left hand is not mine to give; but [it is for them] for whom it hath been prepared.
41
And when the ten heard it, they began to be moved with indignation concerning James and John.
42
And Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them,
Ye know that they who are accounted to rule over the Gentiles lord it over them; and their great ones exercise authority over them.
43
But it is not so among you: but whosoever would become great among you, shall be your minister;
44
and whosoever would be first among you, shall be servant of all.
45
For the Son of man also came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
