Matthew 23:8-12

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁸ But you are not to be called rabbi, for you have one teacher, and you are all brothers and sisters.^{(A) 9} And call no one your father on earth, for you have one Father, the one in heaven.^{(B) 10} Nor are you to be called instructors, for you have one instructor, the Messiah.^{[a] 11} The greatest among you will be your servant.^{(C) 12} All who exalt themselves will be humbled, and all who humble themselves will be exalted.^(D)
