Matthew 20:22-24

Easy-to-Read Version

²² So Jesus said to the sons, “You don’t understand what you are asking. Can you drink from the cup^[a] that I must drink from?”

The sons answered, “Yes, we can!”

²³ Jesus said to them, “It is true that you will drink from the cup that I drink from. But it is not for me to say who will sit at my right or my left. My Father has decided who will do that. He has prepared those places for them.”

²⁴ The other ten followers heard this and were angry with the two brothers.
