Matthew 20:18-34

18“BeholdG2400, we are goingG305 up to JerusalemG2414; and the SonG5207 of ManG444 1will be 2deliveredG3860 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122, and they will condemnG2632 Him to deathG2288, 19and 3will handG3860 Him over to the GentilesG1484 to mockG1702 and scourgeG3146 and crucifyG4717 Him, and on 4the thirdG5154 dayG2250 He will be raisedG1453 up.”

205ThenG5119 the motherG3384 of 6the sonsG5207 of ZebedeeG2199 cameG4334 to 7Jesus with her sonsG5207, 8bowingG4352 downG4352 and makingG154 a requestG154 of Him. 21And He saidG3004 to her, “WhatG5101 do you wishG2309?” She saidG3004 to Him, “CommandG3004 that in Your kingdomG932 theseG3778 twoG1417 sonsG5207 of mineG1473 9may sitG2523 oneG1520 on Your rightG1188 and oneG1520 on Your leftG2176.” 22But JesusG2424 answeredG611, “You do not knowG3609 whatG5101 you are askingG154. Are you ableG1410 10to drinkG4095 the cupG4221 that I amG3195 aboutG3195 to drinkG4095?” They saidG3004 to Him, “We are ableG1410.” 23He saidG3004 to them, “11My cupG4221 you shall drinkG4095; but to sitG2523 on My rightG1188 and on My leftG2176, thisG3778 is not MineG1699 to giveG1325, 12but it is for those for whomG3739 it has been 13preparedG2090 by My FatherG3962.”

24And hearingG191 this, the tenG1176 became indignantG23 with the twoG1417 brothersG80. 2514But JesusG2424 calledG4341 them to Himself and saidG3004, “You knowG3609 that the rulersG758 of the GentilesG1484 lordG2634 it overG2634 them, and their greatG3173 menG3173 exerciseG2715 authorityG2715 overG2715 them. 26It is not thisG3779 wayG3779 amongG1722 you, 15but whoeverG3739G1437 wishesG2309 to becomeG1096 greatG3173 amongG1722 you shall be your servantG1249, 27and whoeverG3739G1437 wishesG2309 to be firstG4413 amongG1722 you shall be your slaveG1401; 28justG5618 as 16the SonG5207 of ManG444 17did not comeG2064 to be servedG1247, but to serveG1247, and to giveG1325 His 18lifeG5590 a ransomG3083 for manyG4183.”

2919As they were leavingG1607 JerichoG2410, a largeG4183 crowdG3793 followedG190 Him. 30And twoG1417 blindG5185 menG5185 sittingG2521 by the roadG3598, hearingG191 that JesusG2424 was passingG3855 by, criedG2896 out, “LordG2962, 20haveG1653 mercyG1653 on us, 21SonG5207 of DavidG1160!” 31The crowdG3793 sternlyG2008 toldG2008 them to be quietG4623, but they criedG2896 out allG3173 the moreG3173, “LordG2962, 22SonG5207 of DavidG1160, haveG1653 mercyG1653 on us!” 32And JesusG2424 stoppedG2476 and calledG5455 them, and saidG3004, “WhatG5101 do you wantG2309 Me to doG4160 for you?” 33They saidG3004 to Him, “LordG2962, we want our eyesG3788 to be openedG455.” 34MovedG4697 with compassionG4697, JesusG2424 touchedG681 their eyesG3659; and immediatelyG2112 they regainedG308 their sightG308 and followedG190 Him.
