Matthew 20:23-28

23He told them, “You will indeed drink my cup, but to sit at my right and left is not mine to give; instead, it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”

24When the ten disciples heard this, they became indignant with the two brothers.

25Jesus called them over and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in high positions act as tyrants over them.

26It must not be like that among you. On the contrary, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

27and whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave;

28just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
