²⁵ And he said, The kings of the Gentiles are lords over them, and those who have authority are given names of honour.

²⁵ But Jesus said to them, You see that the rulers of the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.

²⁶ Let it not be so among you: but if anyone has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant;

²⁷ And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him take the lowest place:

²⁸ Even as the Son of man did not come to have servants, but to be a servant, and to give his life for the salvation of men.

⁴¹ And hearing this, the ten became very angry with James and John.

⁴² And Jesus made them come to him, and said to them, You see that those who are made rulers over the Gentiles are lords over them, and their great ones have authority over them.

⁴³ But it is not so among you: but whoever has a desire to become great among you, let him be your servant:

⁴⁴ And whoever has a desire to be first among you, let him be servant of all.

⁴⁵ For truly the Son of man did not come to have servants, but to be a servant, and to give his life for the salvation of men.
