* Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee , with her sons , doing homage , and asking something of him . * And he said to her , What wilt thou ? She says to him , Speak [the word ] that these my two sons may sit , one on thy right hand and one on thy left in thy kingdom . * And Jesus answering said , Ye know not what ye ask . Can ye drink the cup which I am about to drink ? They say to him , We are able . * [And ] he says to them , Ye shall drink indeed my cup , but to sit on my right hand and on [my ] left , is not mine to give , but to those for whom it is prepared of my Father . * And the ten , having heard [of it ], were indignant about the two brothers . * But Jesus having called them to [him ], said , Ye know that the rulers of the nations exercise lordship over them , and the great exercise authority over them . * It shall not be thus amongst you , but whosoever will be great among you , shall be your servant ; * and whosoever will be first among you , let him be your bondman ; * as indeed the Son of man did not come to be served , but to serve , and to give his life a ransom for many .
