²³ And he saith to them, `Of my cup indeed ye shall drink, and with the baptism that I am baptized with ye shall be baptized; but to sit on my right hand and on my left is not mine to give, but -- to those for whom it hath been prepared by my father.'

⁹ I, John, who also `am' your brother, and fellow-partner in the tribulation, and in the reign and endurance, of Jesus Christ, was in the isle that is called Patmos, because of the word of God, and because of the testimony of Jesus Christ;

² and he killed James, the brother of John, with the sword,

³⁴ `Then shall the king say to those on his right hand, Come ye, the blessed of my Father, inherit the reign that hath been prepared for you from the foundation of the world;

¹¹ Stedfast `is' the word: For if we died together -- we also shall live together;

¹² if we do endure together -- we shall also reign together; if we deny `him', he also shall deny us;

⁹ but, according as it hath been written, `What eye did not see, and ear did not hear, and upon the heart of man came not up, what God did prepare for those loving Him --'

¹⁷ and if children, also heirs, heirs, indeed, of God, and heirs together of Christ -- if, indeed, we suffer together, that we may also be glorified together.

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.'

¹⁶ but now they long for a better, that is, an heavenly, wherefore God is not ashamed of them, to be called their God, for He did prepare for them a city.

²⁴ I now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and do fill up the things lacking of the tribulations of the Christ in my flesh for his body, which is the assembly,

⁷ and our hope `is' stedfast for you, knowing that even as ye are partakers of the sufferings -- so also of the comfort.
