mnt - Mark:10:35-45

mnt@Mark:10:35 @ 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."

mnt@Mark:10:36 @ "What is it you want me to do for you?" said he.

mnt@Mark:10:37 @ They answered, "Allow us to sit, one at your right hand, and the other at your left hand, in your glory."

mnt@Mark:10:38 @ "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?"

mnt@Mark:10:39 @ 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,

mnt@Mark:10:40 @ 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."

mnt@Mark:10:41 @ When they heard this the ten began to be indignant at Jamesand John, so Jesus called them to him and said.

mnt@Mark:10:42 @ "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.

mnt@Mark:10:43 @ Not so shall it be among you. On the contrary whoever would become great among you shall be your servant;

mnt@Mark:10:44 @ and whoever among you would be first, shall be slave of all,

mnt@Mark:10:45 @ 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."
