k of the cup which I drink? and be baptised with the
baptism with which I am baptised? (39)And they said unto him, We are
able. Then said Jesus unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup of
which I drink; and be baptised with the baptism with which I am
baptised: (40)but to sit on my right-hand, and on my left, is not mine
to give; but to those for whom it is prepared. (41)And when the ten
heard it, they began to be indignant against James and John. (42)But
Jesus called them, and said to them, Ye know that they who appear to
rule over the Gentiles, lord it over them; and their great men exercise
dominion over them. (43)But it shall not be so with you: but whosoever
will be great among you let him be your servant: (44)and whosoever will
be first, let him be the servant of all. (45)For the Son of man came

AND when he drew nigh to Jerusalem, unto Bethphage and Bethany, to the
mount of Olives, he sent two of his disciples, (2)and saith unto them,
Go into the village opposite to you: and immediately as you enter it,
you will find a foal tied, on which no man yet hath rode; loose him,
and bring him hither. (3)And if any man say to you, Why do ye this?
say, That the Lord hath need of it; and immediately he will send it
hither. (4)And they went, and found the foal tied to a gate without,
