New Testament

Matthew 20:13-23 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

13. “But answering, he said to one of them, ‘Friend, I’m doing you no wrong. Didn’t you agree with me on a denarius?

14. Take what is yours and go. But I want to give this last guy the same as you.

15. Am I not permitted to do what I want with what belongs to me? Or is your eye evil because I am good?’

16. “So the last will be first, and the first last.”

17. Now as Yeshua was going up to Jerusalem, He took the Twelve aside privately; and on the way he told them,

18. “Look, we’re going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the ruling kohanim and Torah scholars. They will condemn Him to death

19. and hand Him over to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify. Yet on the third day, He will be raised up.”

20. Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came with her sons to Yeshua, and she was kneeling down and asking something from Him.

21. “What do you want?” He said to her. She said to Him, “Declare that these two sons of mine might sit, one on Your right and one on Your left, in Your kingdom.”

22. But Yeshua replied, “You don’t know what you’re asking! Are you able to drink the cup I am about to drink?” “We are able,” they say to Him.

23. He said to them, “You shall indeed drink My cup. But to sit on My right and left, this isn’t Mine to grant. Rather, it’s for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.”
