Matthew 20:20-29

20ThenG5119 cameG4334 to himG846 the motherG3588G3384 ofG3588G5207 Zebedee’sG2199 childrenG3588G5207 withG3326 herG846 sonsG3588G5207, worshippingG4352 him, andG2532 desiringG154 a certain thingG5100 ofG3844 himG846. 21AndG1161 he saidG3004 unto herG846, WhatG5101 wilt thouG2309? She saithG3004 unto himG846, GrantG3004 thatG2443 theseG3778 myG1473 twoG1417 sonsG5207 may sitG2523, the oneG1520 onG1537 thyG4771 right handG1188, andG2532 the otherG1520 onG1537 the leftG2176, inG1722 thyG4771 kingdomG3588G932. 22ButG1161 JesusG3588G2424 answeredG611 and saidG3004, Ye knowG1492 notG3756 whatG5101 ye askG154. Are ye ableG1410 to drinkG4095 of the cupG3588G4221 thatG3739 IG1473 shallG3195 drink ofG4095, andG2532 to be baptizedG907 with the baptismG3588G908 thatG3739 IG1473 am baptized withG907? They sayG3004 unto himG846, We are ableG1410. 23AndG2532 he saithG3004 unto themG846, Ye shall drinkG4095 indeedG3303 ofG4221 myG1473 cupG4221, andG2532 be baptizedG907 with the baptismG3588G908 thatG3739 IG1473 am baptized withG907: butG1161 to sitG2523 onG1537 myG1473 right handG1188, andG2532 onG1537 myG1473 leftG2176, isG1510 notG3756 mineG1699 to giveG1325, butG235 it shall be given to them for whomG3739 it is preparedG2090 ofG5259 myG1473 FatherG3588G3962. 24AndG2532 whenG191 the tenG1176 heardG191 it, they were moved with indignationG23 againstG4012 the twoG1417 brethrenG80. 25ButG1161 JesusG2424 calledG4341 themG846 unto him, and saidG3004, Ye knowG1492 thatG3754 the princesG3588G758 of the GentilesG3588G1484 exercise dominion overG2634 themG846, andG2532 they that are greatG3173 exercise authority uponG2715 themG846. 26ButG1161 it shallG1510 notG3756 beG1510 soG3779 amongG1722 youG4771: butG235 whosoeverG3739 will beG2309 greatG3173 amongG1722 youG4771, let himG1096 beG1510 yourG4771 ministerG1249; 27AndG2532 whosoeverG3739 willG2309 beG1510 chiefG4413 amongG1722 youG4771, let him beG1510 yourG4771 servantG1401: 28Even asG5618 the SonG3588G5207 of manG3588G444 cameG2064 notG3756 to be ministered untoG1247, butG235 to ministerG1247, andG2532 to giveG1325 hisG846 lifeG3588G5590 a ransomG3083 forG473 manyG4183. 29AndG2532 asG1607 theyG846 departedG1607 fromG575 JerichoG2410, aG3793 greatG4183 multitudeG3793 followedG190 himG846.
