Mark 10

³⁶ “What do you want Me to do for you?” He inquired.

³⁷ They answered, “Grant that one of us may sit at Your right hand and the other at Your left in Your glory.”

³⁸ “You do not know what you are asking,” Jesus replied. “Can you drink the cup I will drink, or be baptized with the baptism I will undergo?”

³⁹ “We can,” the brothers answered. “You will drink the cup that I drink,” Jesus said, “and you will be baptized with the baptism that I undergo.

⁴⁰ But to sit at My right or left is not Mine to grant. These seats belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”
