Matthew 20:23 in Context — Matthew 20
21 E ele lhe perguntou: O que queres? Ela lhe disse: Dá ordem para que estes meus dois filhos se sentem, um à tua direita e outro à tua esquerda, no teu Reino.
22 Porém Jesus respondeu: Não sabeis o que pedis. Podeis vós beber o cálice que eu beberei, e ser batizados com o batismo com que eu sou batizado? Eles lhe disseram: Podemos.
23 E ele lhes disse: De fato meu cálice bebereis, e com o batismo com que eu sou batizado sereis batizados; mas sentar-se à minha direita, e à minha esquerda, não me cabe concedê-lo, mas [será] para os que por meu Pai está preparado.
24 E quando os dez ouviram [isso] ,indignaram-se contra os dois irmãos.
25 Então Jesus os chamou a si, e disse: Vós bem sabeis que os chefes dos gentios os dominam, e os grandes usam de autoridade sobre eles.
