Mark 10:35-45

35 ^{▼▼Or Jacob
,} ^bJames and John, the two sons of Zebedee, *came up to ^{▼▼Lit Him}Jesus, saying to Him, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask of You.” 36 And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?” 37 They said to Him, “ ^{▼▼Lit Give to us}Grant that we ^emay sit, one on Your right and one on Your left, in Your glory.” 38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able ^fto drink the cup that I drink, or ^gto be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?” 39 They said to Him, “We are able.” And Jesus said to them, “The cup that I drink ^hyou shall drink; and you shall be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized. 40 But to sit on My right or on My left is not Mine to give; ⁱbut it is for those for whom it has been prepared.”

41 ^jHearing this, the other ten began to feel indignant with ^{▼▼Or Jacob}James and John. 42 Calling them to Himself, Jesus *said to them, “You know that those who are recognized as rulers of the Gentiles domineer over them; and their ^{▼▼Lit great ones}people in high position exercise authority over them. 43 But it is not this way among you; ^mrather, whoever wants to become ^{▼▼Lit great}prominent among you shall be your servant; 44 and whoever wants to be first among you shall be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man ^odid not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His ^{▼▼Or soul}life as a ransom for many.”
