St Mark 10:28-40 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

28. And Peter began to say unto him: Behold, we have left all things, and have followed thee.

29. Jesus answering, said: Amen I say to you, there is no man who hath left house or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or children, or lands, for my sake and for the gospel,

30. Who shall not receive an hundred times as much, now in this time; houses, and brethren, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands, with persecutions: and in the world to come life everlasting.

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 astonished; and following were afraid. And taking again the twelve, he began to tell them the things that should befall him.

33. Saying: Behold we go up to Jerusalem, and the Son of man shall be betrayed to the chief priests, and to the scribes and ancients, and they shall condemn him to death, and shall deliver him to the Gentiles.

34. And they shall mock him, and spit on him, and scourge him, and kill him: and the third day he shall rise again.

35. And James and John the sons of Zebedee, come to him, saying: Master, we desire that whatsoever we shall ask, thou wouldst do it for us:

36. But he said to them: What would you that I should do for you?

37. And they said: Grant to us, that we may sit, one on thy right hand, and the other on thy left hand, in thy glory.

38. And Jesus said to them: You know not what you ask. Can you drink of the chalice that I drink of: or be baptized with the baptism wherewith I am baptized?

39. But they said to him: We can. And Jesus saith to them: You shall indeed drink of the chalice that I drink of: and with the baptism wherewith I am baptized, you shall be baptized.

40. But to sit on my right hand, or on my left, is not mine to give to you, but to them for whom it is prepared.
