Ndipo Yesu, kukwera ku Yerusalemu, took the twelve disciples aside in private and said to them: |
| 20:18 |
“Taonani!, tikukwera ku Yerusalemu, and the Son of man shall be handed over to the leaders of the priests and to the scribes. And they shall condemn him to death. |
| 20:19 |
And they shall hand him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and scourged and crucified. Ndipo pa tsiku lachitatu, he shall rise again.” |
| 20:20 |
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee approached him, with her sons, adoring him, and petitioning something from him. |
| 20:21 |
Ndipo adati kwa iye, "Mukufuna chiyani?” She said to him, “Declare that these, my two sons, may sit, one at your right hand, and the other at your left, in your kingdom.” |
| 20:22 |
Koma Yesu, kuyankha, adatero: “You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink from the chalice, from which I will drink?” Iwo adati kwa iye, “We are able.” |
| 20:23 |
Iye adati kwa iwo: “From my chalice, poyeneradi, mudzamwa. But to sit at my right or my left is not mine to give to you, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.” |
| 20:24 |
And the ten, pakumva izi, became indignant with the two brothers. |
| 20:25 |
But Jesus called them to himself and said: “You know that the first ones among the Gentiles are their rulers, and that those who are greater exercise power among them. |
| 20:26 |
It shall not be this way among you. But whoever will want to be greater among you, let him be your minister. |
| 20:27 |
And whoever will want to be first among you, he shall be your servant, |
| 20:28 |
even as the Son of man has not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a redemption for many.” |
