Matthew 20:18-34

18“BeholdG2400, we are goingG305 upG305 to JerusalemG2414, and the SonG5207 of ManG444 1will be 2handedG3860 overG3860 to the chiefG749 priestsG749 and scribesG1122, and they will condemnG2632 Him to deathG2288, 19and they 3will handG3860 Him overG3860 to the GentilesG1484 to mockG1702 and flogG3146 and crucifyG4717, and on 4the thirdG5154 dayG2250 He will be raisedG1453 upG1453.”

205ThenG5119 the motherG3384 of 6the 7sonsG5207 of ZebedeeG2199 cameG4334 to 8Jesus with her sonsG5207, 9bowingG4352 downG4352 and makingG154 a requestG154 of Him. 21And He saidG3004 to her, “WhatG5101 do you desireG2309?” She saidG3004 to Him, “SayG3004 that in Your kingdomG932 theseG3778 twoG1417 sonsG5207 of mineG1473 10shall sitG2523, oneG1520 at Your rightG1188, and oneG1520 at Your leftG2176.” 22But JesusG2424 repliedG611G3004, “You do not knowG3609 whatG5101 you are askingG154. Are you ableG1410 11to drinkG4095 the cupG4221 that I amG3195 aboutG3195 toG3195 drinkG4095?” They saidG3004 to Him, “We are ableG1410.” 23He saidG3004 to them, “12My cupG4221 you shall drinkG4095; but to sitG2523 at My rightG1188 and at My leftG2176 is not MineG1699 to giveG1325, 13but it is for those for whomG3739 it has been 14preparedG2090 by My FatherG3962.”

24And after hearingG191 this, the other tenG1176 disciples became indignantG23 with the twoG1417 brothersG80. 2515But JesusG2424 calledG4341 them to Himself and saidG3004, “You knowG3609 that the rulersG758 of the GentilesG1484 domineerG2634 overG2634 them, and 16those in highG3173 positionG3173 exerciseG2715 authorityG2715 overG2715 them. 26It 17is not thisG3779 wayG3779 amongG1722 you, 18but whoeverG3739G1437 wantsG2309 to becomeG1096 19prominentG3173 amongG1722 you shall be your servantG1249, 27and whoeverG3739G1437 desiresG2309 to be firstG4413 amongG1722 you shall be your slaveG1401; 28justG5618 as 20the SonG5207 of ManG444 21did not comeG2064 to be servedG1247, but to serveG1247, and to giveG1325 His 22lifeG5590 as a ransomG3083 for manyG4183.”

2923As they were leavingG1607 JerichoG2410, a largeG4183 crowdG3793 followedG190 Him. 30And twoG1417 peopleG5185 whoG5185 wereG5185 blindG5185, sittingG2521 by the roadG3598, hearingG191 that JesusG2424 was passingG3855 by, criedG2896 outG2896, “LordG2962, 24haveG1653 mercyG1653 on us, 25SonG5207 of DavidG1160!” 31But the crowdG3793 sternlyG2008 warnedG2008 them to be quietG4623; yetG1161 they criedG2896 outG2896 allG3173 theG3173 moreG3173, “LordG2962, 26SonG5207 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 withG4697 compassionG4697, JesusG2424 touchedG681 their eyesG3659; and immediatelyG2112 they regainedG308 their sightG308 and followedG190 Him.
