30. who shall not receive one 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 of the first shall be last; and of the last first.
32. And they were in the way going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus went before them; and they were amazed, and they followed him with fear. Then, taking the twelve aside again, he began to tell them what things would happen unto him,
33. saying, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be delivered unto the princes of the 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; but the third day he shall rise again.
35. Then James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came unto him, saying, Master, we would that thou should do for us whatever we shall ask.
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 at thy right hand and the other at thy left hand in thy glory.
38. Then Jesus said unto them, Ye know not what ye ask; can ye drink the cup that I drink? Or 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 the cup that I drink, and of the baptism that I am baptized with ye shall be baptized;
40. but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but it shall be given to those for whom it is prepared.
41. And when the ten heard it, they began to be angry against James and John.
42. But Jesus, calling unto them, said unto them, Ye know that those who are seen to be princes among the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those that are great among them wield power over them.
43. But it shall not be like this among you, for whosoever desires to make himself great among you shall be your servant;
44. and whosoever of you that desires to be first shall be slave of all.
45. For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to serve and to give his life in ransom for many.

48. And many told him to be silent, but he cried even more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.
49. Then Jesus stood still and commanded him to be called. And they call the blind man, saying unto him, Have confidence, rise; he calls thee.
