in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed
were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell
them the things that were going to happen to him.
010:033 "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man
will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes.
They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him
to the Gentiles.
010:034 They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him.
On the third day he will rise again."
010:035 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him,
saying, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask."
010:036 He said to them, "What do you want me to do for you?"
010:037 They said to him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one at your
right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory."
010:038 But Jesus said to them, "You don't know what you are asking.
Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized
with the baptism that I am baptized with?"
010:039 They said to him, "We are able." Jesus said to them,
"You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall
be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with;
010:040 but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine
to give, but for whom it has been prepared."
010:041 When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant towards
James and John.
010:042 Jesus summoned them, and said to them, "You know that they
who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them,
and their great ones exercise authority over them.
010:043 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become
great among you shall be your servant.
010:044 Whoever of you wants to become first among you, shall be
bondservant of all.
010:045 For the Son of Man also came not to be served, but to serve,
and to give his life as a ransom for many."
010:046 They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho, with his
disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus,
a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
010:047 When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out,
and say, "Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!"
010:048 Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out
much more, "You son of David, have mercy on me!"
010:049 Jesus stood still, and said, "Call him." They called
the blind man, saying to him, "Cheer up! Get up.
He is calling you!"
010:050 He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus.
010:051 Jesus asked him, "What do you want me to do for you?"
