Matthew 20:22-24

International Children’s Bible

²² But Jesus said, “You don’t understand what you are asking. Can you accept the kind of suffering that I must suffer?”^[a]

The sons answered, “Yes, we can!”

²³ Jesus said to them, “Truly you will suffer the same things that I will suffer. But I cannot choose who will sit at my right side or my left side. Those places belong to those for whom my Father has prepared them.”

²⁴ The other ten followers heard this and were angry with the two brothers.
