Matthew 20:22-24
New Century Version
22 But Jesus said, “You don’t understand what you are asking. Can you drink the cup that I am about to drink?”[a]
The sons answered, “Yes, we can.”
23 Jesus said to them, “You will drink from my cup. But I cannot choose who will sit at my right or my left; those places belong to those for whom my Father has prepared them.”
24 When the other ten followers heard this, they were angry with the two brothers.
