²⁰ Then came near to him the mother of the sons of Zebedee, with her sons, bowing and asking something from him,

²¹ And having advanced thence, he saw other two brothers, James of Zebedee, and John his brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, refitting their nets, and he called them,

² and lo, a leper having come, was bowing to him, saying, `Sir, if thou art willing, thou art able to cleanse me;'

⁵⁶ among whom was Mary the Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and of Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

³⁵ And there come near to him James and John, the sons of Zebedee, saying, `Teacher, we wish that whatever we may ask for ourselves, thou mayest do for us;'

³⁶ and he said to them, `What do ye wish me to do for you?'

³⁷ and they said to him, `Grant to us that, one on thy right hand and one on thy left, we may sit in thy glory;'

³⁸ and Jesus said to them, `Ye have not known what ye ask; are ye able to drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized with -- to be baptized?'

³⁹ And they said to him, `We are able;' and Jesus said to them, `Of the cup indeed that I drink of, ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with, ye shall be baptized;

⁴⁰ but to sit on my right and on my left, is not mine to give, but -- to those for whom it hath been prepared.'

⁴¹ And the ten having heard, began to be much displeased at James and John,

⁴² but Jesus having called them near, saith to them, `Ye have known that they who are considered to rule the nations do exercise lordship over them, and their great ones do exercise authority upon them;

⁴³ but not so shall it be among you; but whoever may will to become great among you, he shall be your minister,

⁴⁴ and whoever of you may will to become first, he shall be servant of all;

⁴⁵ for even the Son of Man came not to be ministered to, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.'

⁴⁰ And there were also women afar off beholding, among whom was also Mary the Magdalene, and Mary of James the less, and of Joses, and Salome,

¹¹ and having come to the house, they found the child with Mary his mother, and having fallen down they bowed to him, and having opened their treasures, they presented to him gifts, gold, and frankincense, and myrrh,

³³ and those in the boat having come, did bow to him, saying, `Truly -- God's Son art thou.'

²⁵ And having come, she was bowing to him, saying, `Sir, help me;'

¹⁷ and having seen him, they bowed to him, but some did waver.
