Matthew 20:20-24 New American Standard Bible (NASB)Request for Preferred Treatment20 Then the mother of the [a]sons of Zebedee came to [b]Jesus with her sons, bowing down and making a request of Him. 21 And He said to her, “What do you desire?” She *said to Him, “Say that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine shall sit, one at Your right, and one at Your left.” 22 But Jesus replied, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They *said to Him, “We are able.” 23 He *said to them, “My cup you shall drink; but to sit at My right and at My left is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.” 24 And after hearing this, the other ten disciples became indignant with the two brothers.
