Matthew 20:22-24

New Testament for Everyone

²² “You don’t know what you’re asking for,” said Jesus. “Can you two drink the cup I’m going to drink?”

“Yes, we can,” they replied.

²³ “Well,” said Jesus, “so you will drink my cup, then! But sitting at my right and left is not something I can grant. That’s up to my father to give to whoever he has in mind.”

²⁴ When the other ten heard this they were annoyed with the two brothers.
