Ang Katuruan ni Jesus tungkol sa Paghihiwalay ng Mag-asawa(A)
10 Pag-alis doon, si Jesus ay nagpunta sa lupain ng Judea at tumawid sa ibayo ng Ilog Jordan. Muling dumagsa ang maraming tao at tulad ng kanyang palaging ginagawa, sila'y kanyang tinuruan.
2 May ilang Pariseong gustong subukin si Jesus; kaya't lumapit sila at nagtanong, “Naaayon po ba sa Kautusan na hiwalayan ng lalaki ang kanyang asawa?”
3 Sumagot siya, “Ano ba ang utos ni Moises sa inyo?”
4 Sumagot(B) naman sila, “Ipinahintulot po ni Moises na ang lalaki ay gumawa ng kasulatan ng paghihiwalay bago niya hiwalayan at palayasin ang kanyang asawa.”
5 Ngunit sinabi ni Jesus, “Ginawa ni Moises ang utos na iyon dahil sa katigasan ng inyong ulo. 6 Subalit(C) simula pa nang likhain ng Diyos ang sanlibutan, nilalang niya ang tao na lalaki at babae. 7 ‘Dahil(D) dito'y iiwan ng lalaki ang kanyang ama at ina, [magsasama sila ng kanyang asawa][a] 8 at ang dalawa'y magiging isa.’ Hindi na sila dalawa kundi isa. 9 Ang pinagsama ng Diyos ay huwag paghiwalayin ng tao.”
10 Pagdating sa bahay, ang mga alagad naman ang nagtanong kay Jesus tungkol sa bagay na ito. 11 Sinabi(E) niya sa kanila, “Kapag hiniwalayan ng isang lalaki ang kanyang asawa at mag-asawa ng iba, siya ay nagkakasala ng pangangalunya sa kanyang asawa. 12 Gayon din naman, ang babaing humiwalay sa kanyang asawa at mag-asawa ng iba ay nagkakasala rin ng pangangalunya.”
Binasbasan ni Jesus ang Maliliit na Bata(F)
13 May mga taong nagdala ng mga bata kay Jesus upang hilinging ipatong niya sa mga ito ang kanyang kamay, ngunit sinaway sila ng mga alagad. 14 Nagalit si Jesus nang makita ito at sinabi sa kanila, “Hayaan ninyong lumapit sa akin ang mga bata, at huwag ninyo silang pagbawalan, sapagkat ang mga katulad nila ang mapapabilang sa kaharian ng Diyos. 15 Tandaan(G) ninyo: ang sinumang hindi tumatanggap sa kaharian ng Diyos, tulad sa pagtanggap ng isang bata, ay hinding-hindi makakapasok sa kaharian ng Diyos.” 16 Kinalong ni Jesus ang mga bata, ipinatong ang kanyang mga kamay sa kanila at binasbasan sila.
Ang Lalaking Mayaman(H)
17 Nang siya'y paalis na, may isang lalaking patakbong lumapit kay Jesus, lumuhod sa harapan niya at nagtanong, “Mabuting Guro, ano po ba ang dapat kong gawin upang makamtan ko ang buhay na walang hanggan?”
18 Sumagot si Jesus, “Bakit mo ako tinatawag na mabuti? Walang mabuti kundi ang Diyos lamang. 19 Alam(I) mo ang mga utos ng Diyos, ‘Huwag kang papatay; huwag kang mangangalunya; huwag kang magnanakaw; huwag kang sasaksi nang walang katotohanan; huwag kang mandaraya; igalang mo ang iyong ama at ina.’”
20 Sumagot ang lalaki, “Guro, mula pa sa aking pagkabata ay tinupad ko na ang lahat ng mga iyan.”
21 Magiliw siyang tiningnan ni Jesus at sinabi, “May isang bagay pa na dapat mong gawin. Ipagbili mo ang iyong mga ari-arian at ipamigay mo sa mahihirap, at magkakaroon ka ng kayamanan sa langit. Pagkatapos, bumalik ka at sumunod ka sa akin.” 22 Nang marinig ito ng lalaki, siya'y nanlumo at malungkot na umalis sapagkat siya'y lubhang napakayaman.
23 Tiningnan ni Jesus ang mga nasa paligid niya at sinabi sa mga alagad, “Tunay ngang napakahirap para sa mayayaman ang makapasok sa kaharian ng Diyos!” 24 Nagtaka ang mga alagad sa sinabi niyang ito. Ngunit muling sinabi ni Jesus, “Mga anak, talagang napakahirap [para sa mga mayayaman na][b] makapasok sa kaharian ng Diyos! 25 Mas madali pang dumaan ang kamelyo sa butas ng karayom kaysa isang mayaman na pumasok sa kaharian ng Diyos.”
26 Lalong nagtaka ang mga alagad, kaya't nagtanong sila, “Kung gayon, sino pa kaya ang maliligtas?”
27 Tiningnan sila ni Jesus at sinabi sa kanila, “Hindi ito kayang gawin ng tao, ngunit hindi ito imposible sa Diyos. Sapagkat ang lahat ng bagay ay kayang gawin ng Diyos.”
28 At nagsalita si Pedro, “Tingnan po ninyo, iniwan na namin ang lahat at kami'y sumunod sa inyo.”
29 Sumagot si Jesus, “Tandaan ninyo: ang sinumang nag-iwan ng kanyang tahanan, o mga kapatid, mga magulang, mga anak, mga lupain, dahil sa akin at sa Magandang Balita, 30 ay tatanggap sa buhay na ito ng isandaang ulit pa ng mga iyon; mga bahay, mga kapatid, mga ina, mga anak, at mga lupain, ngunit may kalakip na pag-uusig. At sa panahong darating, magtatamo siya ng buhay na walang hanggan. 31 Ngunit(J) maraming nauuna na mahuhuli, at maraming nahúhulí ang mauuna.”
Ang Ikatlong Pagbanggit tungkol sa Kamatayan at Muling Pagkabuhay ni Jesus(K)
32 Nasa daan sila papuntang Jerusalem. Nauuna sa kanila si Jesus; nangangamba ang mga alagad at natatakot naman ang ibang mga taong sumusunod sa kanya. Muling ibinukod ni Jesus ang Labindalawa at sinabi sa kanila ang mangyayari sa kanya. 33 Sabi niya, “Papunta tayo ngayon sa Jerusalem kung saan ang Anak ng Tao'y ipagkakanulo sa mga punong pari at sa mga tagapagturo ng Kautusan. Siya'y hahatulan nila ng kamatayan at ibibigay sa mga Hentil. 34 Siya ay kanilang hahamakin, duduraan, hahagupitin, at papatayin. Ngunit pagkaraan ng tatlong araw, siya'y muling mabubuhay.”
Ang Pagiging Dakila(L)
35 Lumapit kay Jesus ang mga anak ni Zebedeo na sina Santiago at Juan. Sinabi nila, “Guro, may hihilingin po sana kami sa inyo.”
36 “Ano ang nais ninyo?” tanong ni Jesus.
37 Sumagot sila, “Sana po ay makasama kami sa inyong karangalan at maupo ang isa sa kanan at isa sa kaliwa.”
38 Ngunit(M) sabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Hindi ninyo nalalaman ang inyong hinihingi. Makakaya ba ninyong tiisin ang hirap na aking daranasin? Makakaya ba ninyo ang bautismong ibabautismo sa akin?”
39 “Opo,” tugon nila.
Sinabi ni Jesus, “Ang kopang aking iinuman ay iinuman nga ninyo, at babautismuhan nga kayo sa bautismong tatanggapin ko. 40 Ngunit hindi ako ang magpapasya kung sino ang mauupo sa aking kanan at sa aking kaliwa. Ang mga karangalang iyan ay para sa mga pinaglaanan.”
41 Nang malaman ito ng sampung alagad, nagalit sila sa magkapatid. 42 Kaya't(N) pinalapit sila ni Jesus at sinabi, “Alam ninyo na ang mga itinuturing na pinuno ng mga Hentil ay namumuno bilang mga panginoon sa kanila, at ang kagustuhan ng mga nasa kapangyarihan ang siyang nasusunod. 43 Ngunit(O) hindi ganyan ang dapat umiral sa inyo. Sa halip, ang sinuman sa inyo na nais maging dakila ay dapat maging lingkod ninyo, 44 at ang sinumang nais maging pinuno ay dapat maging alipin ng lahat. 45 Sapagkat ang Anak ng Tao ay naparito hindi upang paglingkuran kundi upang maglingkod at upang mag-alay ng kanyang buhay para sa ikatutubos ng marami.”
Pinagaling si Bartimeo(P)
46 Dumating sina Jesus sa Jerico. Nang papaalis na siya kasama ang kanyang mga alagad at marami pang iba, may nadaanan silang isang bulag na nakaupo sa tabi ng daan at namamalimos. Siya'y si Bartimeo na anak ni Timeo. 47 Nang marinig ng bulag na ang nagdaraan ay si Jesus na taga-Nazaret, sumigaw siya nang sumigaw, “Jesus, Anak ni David, mahabag po kayo sa akin!”
48 Pinagsabihan siya ng mga taong naroroon upang tumahimik, ngunit lalo pa siyang nagsisigaw, “Anak ni David, mahabag po kayo sa akin!”
49 Tumigil si Jesus at kanyang sinabi, “Dalhin ninyo siya rito.”
At tinawag nga nila ang bulag. “Lakasan mo ang iyong loob. Tumayo ka. Ipinapatawag ka ni Jesus,” sabi nila.
50 Inihagis niya ang kanyang balabal, paluksong tumayo at lumapit kay Jesus.
51 “Ano ang gusto mong gawin ko para sa iyo?” tanong sa kanya ni Jesus.
Sumagot ang bulag, “Guro, gusto ko pong makakitang muli.”
52 Sinabi ni Jesus, “Makakaalis ka na. Magaling ka na dahil sa iyong pananampalataya.”
Noon di'y nakakita siyang muli, at sumunod kay Jesus.

Divorce(A)
10 Jesus then left that place and went into the region of Judea and across the Jordan.(B) Again crowds of people came to him, and as was his custom, he taught them.(C)
2 Some Pharisees(D) came and tested him by asking, “Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?”
3 “What did Moses command you?” he replied.
4 They said, “Moses permitted a man to write a certificate of divorce and send her away.”(E)
5 “It was because your hearts were hard(F) that Moses wrote you this law,” Jesus replied. 6 “But at the beginning of creation God ‘made them male and female.’[a](G) 7 ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,[b] 8 and the two will become one flesh.’[c](H) So they are no longer two, but one flesh. 9 Therefore what God has joined together, let no one separate.”
10 When they were in the house again, the disciples asked Jesus about this. 11 He answered, “Anyone who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her.(I) 12 And if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery.”(J)
The Little Children and Jesus(K)
13 People were bringing little children to Jesus for him to place his hands on them, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 When Jesus saw this, he was indignant. He said to them, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.(L) 15 Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.”(M) 16 And he took the children in his arms,(N) placed his hands on them and blessed them.
The Rich and the Kingdom of God(O)
17 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees(P) before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”(Q)
18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.’[d]”(R)
20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all these I have kept since I was a boy.”
21 Jesus looked at him and loved him. “One thing you lack,” he said. “Go, sell everything you have and give to the poor,(S) and you will have treasure in heaven.(T) Then come, follow me.”(U)
22 At this the man’s face fell. He went away sad, because he had great wealth.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “How hard it is for the rich(V) to enter the kingdom of God!”
24 The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus said again, “Children, how hard it is[e] to enter the kingdom of God!(W) 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.”(X)
26 The disciples were even more amazed, and said to each other, “Who then can be saved?”
27 Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.”(Y)
28 Then Peter spoke up, “We have left everything to follow you!”(Z)
29 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel 30 will fail to receive a hundred times as much(AA) in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields—along with persecutions—and in the age to come(AB) eternal life.(AC) 31 But many who are first will be last, and the last first.”(AD)
Jesus Predicts His Death a Third Time(AE)
32 They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and the disciples were astonished, while those who followed were afraid. Again he took the Twelve(AF) aside and told them what was going to happen to him. 33 “We are going up to Jerusalem,”(AG) he said, “and the Son of Man(AH) will be delivered over to the chief priests and the teachers of the law.(AI) They will condemn him to death and will hand him over to the Gentiles, 34 who will mock him and spit on him, flog him(AJ) and kill him.(AK) Three days later(AL) he will rise.”(AM)
The Request of James and John(AN)
35 Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him. “Teacher,” they said, “we want you to do for us whatever we ask.”
36 “What do you want me to do for you?” he asked.
37 They replied, “Let one of us sit at your right and the other at your left in your glory.”(AO)
38 “You don’t know what you are asking,”(AP) Jesus said. “Can you drink the cup(AQ) I drink or be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with?”(AR)
39 “We can,” they answered.
Jesus said to them, “You will drink the cup I drink and be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with,(AS) 40 but to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”
41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John. 42 Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them. 43 Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,(AT) 44 and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve,(AU) and to give his life as a ransom for many.”(AV)
Blind Bartimaeus Receives His Sight(AW)
46 Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples, together with a large crowd, were leaving the city, a blind man, Bartimaeus (which means “son of Timaeus”), was sitting by the roadside begging. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth,(AX) he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David,(AY) have mercy on me!”
48 Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.”
So they called to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.” 50 Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus.
51 “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked him.
The blind man said, “Rabbi,(AZ) I want to see.”
52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.”(BA) Immediately he received his sight and followed(BB) Jesus along the road.

Teaching about Divorce
(Matthew 19.1-12; Luke 16.18)
10 After Jesus left, he went to Judea and then on to the other side of the Jordan River. Once again large crowds came to him, and as usual, he taught them.
2 Some Pharisees wanted to test Jesus. So they came up to him and asked if it was right for a man to divorce his wife. 3 Jesus asked them, “What does the Law of Moses say about this?”
4 (A) They answered, “Moses allows a man to write out divorce papers and send his wife away.”
5 Jesus replied, “Moses gave you this law because you are so heartless. 6 (B) But in the beginning God made a man and a woman. 7 (C) That's why a man leaves his father and mother and gets married. 8 He becomes like one person with his wife. Then they are no longer two people, but one. 9 And no one should separate a couple that God has joined together.”
10 When Jesus and his disciples were back in the house, they asked him about what he had said. 11 (D) He told them, “A man who divorces his wife and marries someone else is unfaithful to his wife. 12 A woman who divorces her husband[a] and marries again is also unfaithful.”
Jesus Blesses Little Children
(Matthew 19.13-15; Luke 18.15-17)
13 Some people brought their children to Jesus so he could bless them by placing his hands on them. But his disciples told the people to stop bothering him.
14 When Jesus saw this, he became angry and said, “Let the children come to me! Don't try to stop them. People who are like these little children belong to the kingdom of God.[b] 15 (E) I promise you that you cannot get into God's kingdom, unless you accept it the way a child does.” 16 Then Jesus took the children in his arms and blessed them by placing his hands on them.
A Rich Man
(Matthew 19.16-30; Luke 18.18-30)
17 As Jesus was walking down a road, a man ran up to him. He knelt down, and asked, “Good teacher, what can I do to have eternal life?”
18 Jesus replied, “Why do you call me good? Only God is good. 19 (F) You know the commandments. ‘Do not murder. Be faithful in marriage. Do not steal. Do not tell lies about others. Do not cheat. Respect your father and mother.’ ”
20 The man answered, “Teacher, I have obeyed all these commandments since I was a young man.”
21 Jesus looked closely at the man. He liked him and said, “There's one thing you still need to do. Go sell everything you own. Give the money to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven. Then come with me.”
22 When the man heard Jesus say this, he went away gloomy and sad because he was very rich.
23 Jesus looked around and said to his disciples, “It's hard for rich people to get into God's kingdom!” 24 The disciples were shocked to hear this. So Jesus told them again, “It's terribly hard[c] to get into God's kingdom! 25 In fact, it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to get into God's kingdom.”
26 Jesus' disciples were even more amazed. They asked each other, “How can anyone ever be saved?”
27 Jesus looked at them and said, “There are some things that people cannot do, but God can do anything.”
28 Peter replied, “Remember, we left everything to be your followers!”
29 Jesus told him:
You can be sure that anyone who gives up home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or land for me and for the good news 30 will be rewarded. In this world they will be given 100 times as many houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and pieces of land, though they will also be mistreated. And in the world to come, they will have eternal life. 31 (G) But many who are now first will be last, and many who are now last will be first.
Jesus Again Tells about His Death
(Matthew 20.17-19; Luke 18.31-34)
32 The disciples were confused as Jesus led them toward Jerusalem, and his other followers were afraid. Once again, Jesus took the twelve disciples aside and told them what was going to happen to him. He said:
33 We are now on our way to Jerusalem where the Son of Man will be handed over to the chief priests and the teachers of the Law of Moses. They will sentence him to death and hand him over to foreigners,[d] 34 who will make fun of him and spit on him. They will beat him and kill him. But three days later he will rise to life.
The Request of James and John
(Matthew 20.20-28)
35 James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to Jesus and asked, “Teacher, will you do us a favor?”
36 Jesus asked them what they wanted, 37 and they answered, “When you come into your glory, please let one of us sit at your right side and the other at your left.”[e]
38 (H) Jesus told them, “You don't really know what you're asking! Are you able to drink from the cup[f] that I must soon drink from or be baptized as I must be baptized?”[g]
39 “Yes, we are!” James and John answered.
Then Jesus replied, “You certainly will drink from the cup from which I must drink. And you will be baptized just as I must! 40 But it isn't for me to say who will sit at my right side and at my left. This is for God to decide.”
41 When the ten other disciples heard this, they were angry with James and John. 42 (I) But Jesus called the disciples together and said:
You know that those foreigners who call themselves kings like to order their people around. And their great leaders have full power over the people they rule. 43 (J) But don't act like them. If you want to be great, you must be the servant of all the others. 44 And if you want to be first, you must be everyone's slave. 45 (K) The Son of Man did not come to be a slave master, but a slave who will give his life to rescue[h] many people.
Jesus Heals Blind Bartimaeus
(Matthew 20.29-34; Luke 18.35-43)
46 Jesus and his disciples went to Jericho. And as they were leaving, they were followed by a large crowd. A blind beggar by the name of Bartimaeus son of Timaeus was sitting beside the road. 47 When he heard that it was Jesus from Nazareth, he shouted, “Jesus, Son of David,[i] have pity on me!” 48 Many people told the man to stop, but he shouted even louder, “Son of David, have pity on me!”
49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him over!”
They called out to the blind man and said, “Don't be afraid! Come on! He is calling for you.” 50 The man threw off his coat as he jumped up and ran to Jesus.
51 Jesus asked, “What do you want me to do for you?”
The blind man answered, “Master,[j] I want to see!”
52 Jesus told him, “You may go. Your eyes are healed because of your faith.”
At once the man could see, and he went down the road with Jesus.

King James Version
Mark 10
King James Version
10 And he arose from thence, and cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again.
2 And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife? tempting him.
3 And he answered and said unto them, What did Moses command you?
4 And they said, Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.
5 And Jesus answered and said unto them, For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
7 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and cleave to his wife;
8 And they twain shall be one flesh: so then they are no more twain, but one flesh.
9 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.
10 And in the house his disciples asked him again of the same matter.
11 And he saith unto them, Whosoever shall put away his wife, and marry another, committeth adultery against her.
12 And if a woman shall put away her husband, and be married to another, she committeth adultery.
13 And they brought young children to him, that he should touch them: and his disciples rebuked those that brought them.
14 But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.
15 Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein.
16 And he took them up in his arms, put his hands upon them, and blessed them.
17 And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?
18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.
19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.
21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!
24 And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!
25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
28 Then Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and have followed thee.
29 And Jesus answered and said, Verily I say unto you, There is no man that hath left house, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my sake, and the gospel's,
30 But he shall receive an hundredfold now in this time, houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions; and in the world to come eternal life.
31 But many that are first shall be last; and the last first.
32 And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus went before them: and they were amazed; and as they followed, they were afraid. And he took again the twelve, and began to tell them what things should happen unto him,
33 Saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the chief priests, and unto the scribes; and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles:
34 And they shall mock him, and shall scourge him, and shall spit upon him, and shall kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.
35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, come unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou shouldest do for us whatsoever we shall desire.
36 And he said unto them, What would ye that I should do for you?
37 They said unto him, Grant unto us that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.
38 But Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask: can ye drink of the cup that I drink of? and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?
39 And they said unto him, We can. And Jesus said unto them, Ye shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of; and with the baptism that I am baptized withal shall ye be baptized:
40 But to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give; but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared.
41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be much displeased with James and John.
42 But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
43 But so shall it not be among you: but whosoever will be great among you, shall be your minister:
44 And whosoever of you will be the chiefest, shall be servant of all.
45 For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
46 And they came to Jericho: and as he went out of Jericho with his disciples and a great number of people, blind Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, sat by the highway side begging.
47 And when he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, and say, Jesus, thou son of David, have mercy on me.
48 And many charged him that he should hold his peace: but he cried the more a great deal, Thou son of David, have mercy on me.
49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Be of good comfort, rise; he calleth thee.
50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered and said unto him, What wilt thou that I should do unto thee? The blind man said unto him, Lord, that I might receive my sight.
52 And Jesus said unto him, Go thy way; thy faith hath made thee whole. And immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way.
