33 “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death and deliver Him to the Gentiles;
34 and they will mock Him, and scourge Him, and spit on Him, and kill Him. And the third day He will rise again.”
Greatness Is Serving
35 aThen James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, “Teacher, we want You to do for us whatever we ask.”
36 And He said to them, “What do you want Me to do for you?”
37 They said to Him, “Grant us that we may sit, one on Your right hand and the other on Your left, in Your glory.”
38 But Jesus said to them, “You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the acup that I drink, and be baptized with the bbaptism that I am baptized with?”
39 They said to Him, “We are able.” So Jesus said to them, a“You will indeed drink the cup that I drink, and with the baptism I am baptized with you will be baptized;
40 but to sit on My right hand and on My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those afor whom it is prepared.”
41 aAnd when the ten heard it, they began to be greatly displeased with James and John.
42 But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, a“You know that those who are considered rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
43 aYet it shall not be so among you; but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant.
44 And whoever of you desires to be first shall be slave of all.
45 For even athe Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and bto give His life a ransom for many.”
Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus
46 aNow they came to Jericho. As He went out of Jericho with His disciples and a great multitude, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the road begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out and say, “Jesus, aSon of David, bhave mercy on me!”
