* Presently there came up to him Jamesand John , the sons of Zebedee , and said , "Teacher , we wish you would do for us whatever we ask you ." * "What is it you want me to do for you ?" said he . * They answered , "Allow us to sit , one at your right hand , and the other at your left hand , in your glory ." * "You know not what you are asking ," said Jesus . "Can you drink the cup that I drink , or be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with ?" * They answered him , "We can ." "You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink , and with the baptism that I am baptized with shall you be baptized , * but a seat upon my right hand or my left is not mine to grant , but it is for those for whom it has been reserved ." * When they heard this the ten began to be indignant at Jamesand John , so Jesus called them to him and said . * "You know that those who are regarded as rulers among the Gentiles lord it over them , and their great ones make them feel their authority . * Not so shall it be among you . On the contrary whoever would become great among you shall be your servant ; * and whoever among you would be first , shall be slave of all , * and justly , for even the Son of man came not to be served , but to serve , and to give his life , a ransom for many ."
