Matthew 20:20-28 20  Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus with her sons, bowing down and making a request of Him.  21  And He said to her, “What do you wish?” She said to Him, “Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit one on Your right and one on Your left.”  22  But Jesus answered, “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?” They said to Him, “We are able.”  23  He said to them, “My cup you shall drink; but to sit on My right and on  My  left, this is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father.” 24  And hearing  this,  the ten became indignant with the two brothers.  25  But Jesus called them to Himself and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and  their  great men exercise authority over them.  26  “It is not this way among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your s

Matthew 20:17-19 17  As Jesus was about to go up to Jerusalem, He took the twelve  disciples  aside by themselves, and on the way He said to them,  18  “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem; and the Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and scribes, and they will condemn Him to death,  19  and will hand Him over to the Gentiles to mock and scourge and crucify  Him,  and on the third day He will be raised up.” Mark 10:32-34 32  They were on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was walking on ahead of them; and they were amazed, and those who followed were fearful.

Matthew 20:1-16 1  “For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard.  2  “When he had agreed with the laborers for a denarius for the day, he sent them into his vineyard.  3  “And he went out about the third hour and saw others standing idle in the market place;  4  and to those he said, ‘You also go into the vineyard, and whatever is right I will give you.’ And  so  they went. “Again he went out about the sixth and the ninth hour, and did the same thing.  6  “And about the eleventh  hour  he went out and found others standing  around;  and he said to them, ‘Why have you been standing here idle all day long?’  7  “They said to him, ‘Because no one hired us.’ He said to them, ‘You go into the vineyard too.’ 8  “When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, ‘Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last  group  to the first.’  9  “When those  hired  about the eleventh hour ca

Matthew 19:27-30 27  Then Peter said to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You; what then will there be for us?”  28  And Jesus said to them, “Truly I say to you, that you who have followed Me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on His glorious throne, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.  29  “And everyone who has left houses or brothers or sisters or father or mother or children or farms for My name’s sake, will receive many times as much, and will inherit eternal life.  30  “But many  who are  first will be last; and  the  last, first. Mark 10:28-31 28  Peter began to say to Him, “Behold, we have left everything and followed You.”  29  Jesus said, “Truly I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or farms, for My sake and for the gospel’s sake,  30  but that he will receive a hundred times as much no
