Mark 10:38-51

LITV(i) 38 But Jesus said to them, You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup which I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism I am baptized with ? 39 And they said to Him, We are able. But Jesus said to them, Indeed you will drink the cup which I drink, and you will be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized. 40 But to sit off My right and off My left is not Mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared. 41 And hearing, the ten began to be indignant about James and John. 42 But having called them near, Jesus said to them, You know that those seeming to rule the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. 43 But it shall not be so among you, but whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant. 44 And whoever of you desires to become first, he shall be slave of all. 45 For even the Son of man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many. 46 And they came to Jericho. And He and His disciples and a large crowd going out from Jericho, a son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus the blind, sat beside the highway begging. 47 And hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out and to say, Son of David, Jesus, have mercy on me! 48 And many warned him that he be quiet. But he much more cried out, Son of David, have mercy on me! 49 And standing still, Jesus said for him to be called. And they called the blind one, saying to him, Be comforted, rise up, He calls you. 50 And throwing away his garment, rising up, he came to Jesus. 51 And answering, Jesus said to him, What do you desire I should do to you? And the blind one said to Him, My Lord, that I may see again.
