Matthew 20:22-34

22But Jesus replied, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able 1to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They said to Him, “We are able.” 23He said to them, “2My cup you shall drink; but to sit at My right and at My left is not Mine to give, 3but it is for those for whom it has been 4prepared by My Father.”

24And after hearing this, the other ten disciples became indignant with the two brothers. 255But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them, and 6those in high position exercise authority over them. 26It 7is not this way among you, 8but whoever wants to become 9prominent among you shall be your servant, 27and whoever desires to be first among you shall be your slave; 28just as 10the Son of Man 11did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His 12life as a ransom for many.”

2913As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed Him. 30And two people who were blind, sitting by the road, hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, “Lord, 14have mercy on us, 15Son of David!” 31But the crowd sternly warned them to be quiet; yet they cried out all the more, “Lord, 16Son of David, have mercy on us!” 32And Jesus stopped and called them, and said, “What do you want Me to do for you?” 33They said to Him, “Lord, we want our eyes to be opened.” 34Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes; and immediately they regained their sight and followed Him.
