Luke 22:24-30

24Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest.

25And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’

26But not so among you; on the contrary, he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves.

27For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet I am among you as the One who serves.

28“But you are those who have continued with Me in My trials.

29And I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me,

30that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
