Matthew 20:19-21

New Testament for Everyone

¹⁹ They will hand him over to the pagans, and they’re going to mock him, flog him and crucify him. And on the third day he will be raised.”

²⁰ Then the mother of Zebedee’s sons came up, with her sons, to Jesus. She bowed low in front of him and indicated that she had a special request to make.

²¹ “What d’you want?” he asked her.

“It’s about these two sons of mine,” she said to him. “Please say that, when you’re king, they may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left.”
