It is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.' 24 When the ten heard this, they were indignant with the two brothers. 25 But Jesus called them to himself and said, 'You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.' 26 'It shall not be so among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.' 27 'And whoever wants to be first among you must be your slave.' 28 Just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.
