Mark 10:44

40 But to sit at My right or left is not Mine to grant. These seats belong to those for whom they have been prepared.”

41 When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.

42 So Jesus called them together and said, “You know that those regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their superiors exercise authority over them.

43 But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

44 and whoever wants to be first must be the 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 Next, they came to Jericho. And as Jesus and His disciples were leaving Jericho with a large crowd, a blind beggar named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting beside the road.

47 When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to cry out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!”

48 Many people admonished him to be silent, but he cried out all the louder, “Son of David, have mercy on me!”
