(35)And James and John the sons of Zebedee came to him, saying, Master, we desire that thou shouldst do for us whatsoever we request. (36)He said unto them, What will ye that I should do for you? (37)They say unto him, Grant us to sit, the one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left, in thy glory. (38)Then Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup which I drink? and be baptised with the baptism with which I am baptised? (39)And they said unto him, We are able. Then said Jesus unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup of which I drink; and be baptised with the baptism with which I am baptised: (40)but to sit on my right-hand, and on my left, is not mine to give; but to those for whom it is prepared. (41)And when the ten heard it, they began to be indignant against James and John. (42)But Jesus called them, and said to them, Ye know that they who appear to rule over the Gentiles, lord it over them; and their great men exercise dominion over them. (43)But it shall not be so with you: but whosoever will be great among you let him be your servant: (44)and whosoever will be first, let him be the servant of all. (45)For the Son of man came not to be waited upon, but to be a servant, and to give his life a ransom for many. (46)And they came to Jericho. And as he was going out of Jericho with his disciples, and a great multitude, Bartimeus, the blind, the son of Timeus, sat by the road-side begging: (47)and hearing that Jesus of Nazareth was passing by, he began to cry out, and say, O Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me! (48)And many chid him, that he should be silent: but he cried out so much the more, Son of David, have mercy on me! (49)And Jesus stood still, and ordered him to be called: and they call the blind man, saying to him, Cheer up, arise; he calleth thee. (50)Then casting off his cloak, he arose, and came to Jesus. (51)And Jesus addressing him, said, What dost thou wish that I should do for thee? And the blind man said to him, Rabboni, that I may receive my sight! (52)Then said Jesus unto him, Go thy way: thy faith hath saved thee. And immediately he received sight, and followed Jesus in the road. CHAP. XI.
