dby@Matthew:20:20 @ Then came to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, doing homage, and asking something of him.

dby@Matthew:20:21 @ 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.

dby@Matthew:20:22 @ 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.

dby@Matthew:20:23 @ [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.

dby@Matthew:20:24 @ And the ten, having heard [of it], were indignant about the two brothers.

dby@Matthew:20:25 @ 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.

dby@Matthew:20:26 @ It shall not be thus amongst you, but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your servant;

dby@Matthew:20:27 @ and whosoever will be first among you, let him be your bondman;

dby@Matthew:20:28 @ as indeed the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life a ransom for many.
