Luke 22:23-36
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 22
23And they began to debate among themselves which one of them it was who was going to do this.
24And a dispute also developed among them as to which one of them was regarded as being the greatest.
25And He said to them, 'The kings of the Gentiles domineer over them; and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’
26But it is not this way for you; rather, the one who is the greatest among you must become like the youngest, and the leader like the servant.
27For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
28You are the ones who have stood by Me in My trials;
29and just as My Father has granted Me a kingdom, I grant you
30that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded to sift you men like wheat;
32but I have prayed for you, that your faith will not fail; and you, when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.'
33But he said to Him, 'Lord, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death!'
34But He said, 'I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.'
35And He said to them, 'When I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?' They said, 'No, nothing.'
36And He said to them, 'But now, whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and whoever has no sword is to sell his cloak and buy one.
King James Version
Chapter 22
23And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
24And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
25And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
26But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
27For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
28Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
29And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;
30That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
32But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
33And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
34And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

Chapter 22
23So they began to argue among themselves which of them it could be who was going to do it.
24Then a dispute also arose among them about who should be considered the greatest.
25But he said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who have authority over them have themselves called ‘Benefactors.’
26It is not to be like that among you. On the contrary, whoever is greatest among you should become like the youngest, and whoever leads, like the one serving.
27For who is greater, the one at the table or the one serving? Isn’t it the one at the table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
28You are those who stood by me in my trials.
29I bestow on you a kingdom, just as my Father bestowed one on me,
30so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom. And you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
New Living Translation
24Then they began to argue among themselves about who would be the greatest among them.
25Jesus told them, 'In this world the kings and great men lord it over their people, yet they are called ‘friends of the people.’
26But among you it will be different. Those who are the greatest among you should take the lowest rank, and the leader should be like a servant.
27Who is more important, the one who sits at the table or the one who serves? The one who sits at the table, of course. But not here! For I am among you as one who serves.
28You have stayed with me in my time of trial.
29And just as my Father has granted me a Kingdom, I now grant you the right
30to eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. And you will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
