Matthew 20

20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came with her two sons to Jesus. She kneeled down before him to make a request.

21 "What is it you are asking me for?" Jesus said to her.

"Please appoint my sons to sit beside you in your kingdom, one on your right and the other on your left," she asked.

22 "You don’t know what you’re asking," Jesus told them. "Are you able to drink the cup*20:22. Meaning the cup of suffering. I’m about to drink?"

"Yes, we are able to do that," they told him.

23 "You will certainly drink from my cup," he said to them, "but the privilege to sit on my right or on my left isn’t mine to give. My Father is the one who has decided who that will be.*20:23. Or "it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.""
