Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-39.htm"><b>39</b></a></span>And they said to Him, "We are able." Then Jesus said to them, "You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink; and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-40.htm"><b>40</b></a></span>But to sit at My right hand and at My left hand is not Mine to give, but to those for whom it has been prepared."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-41.htm"><b>41</b></a></span>And when the ten heard this, they began to show indignation toward James and John. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-42.htm"><b>42</b></a></span>Then Jesus called them to Him and said to them, "You know that those who are counted worthy to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority over them. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-43.htm"><b>43</b></a></span>But it shall not be this way among you; rather, whoever desires to become great among you shall be your servant; <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-44.htm"><b>44</b></a></span>And whoever desires to be first among you shall be the bondslave of all. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-45.htm"><b>45</b></a></span>For even the Son of man came not to be served, but to serve, and to give His life as a ransom for many."</p> <a name="46" id="46"></a><p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-46.htm"><b>46</b></a></span>Then they came to Jericho. And as He and His disciples were going up from Jericho with a large multitude, Bartimeus the blind man, the son of Timeus, was sitting beside the road begging. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-47.htm"><b>47</b></a></span>And after hearing that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to cry out, saying, "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-48.htm"><b>48</b></a></span>Then many began to rebuke him, so that he would be silent; but he cried out all the more, "Son of David, have mercy on me!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-49.htm"><b>49</b></a></span>And Jesus stood still and asked for him to be called. And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Be of good courage; rise up, for He is calling you." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-50.htm"><b>50</b></a></span>And after casting aside his beggar's cloak, he arose and came to Jesus. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-51.htm"><b>51</b></a></span>Then Jesus answered him and said, "What do you desire to have Me do for you?" And the blind man said to Him, "Master, that I may receive sight." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/10-52.htm"><b>52</b></a></span>And Jesus said to him "Go your way, for your faith has healed you."
