Mark 10:38-40

The Voice

Jesus: ³⁸ You don’t know what it is you’re asking. Can you drink from the cup I have to drink from or be ritually washed in baptism with the baptism^[a] that awaits Me?

James and John: ³⁹ We can.

Jesus: You will indeed drink from the cup I drink from and be baptized with the baptism^[b] that awaits Me. ⁴⁰ But to sit at My right or at My left is an honor I cannot grant. That will be given to those for whom it has been prepared.
