23. He said to them: "From my chalice, indeed, you shall drink. But to sit at my right or my left is not mine to give to you, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father."
24. And the ten, upon hearing this, became indignant with the two brothers.
25. But Jesus called them to himself and said: "You know that the first ones among the Gentiles are their rulers, and that those who are greater exercise power among them.
26. It shall not be this way among you. But whoever will want to be greater among you, let him be your minister.
27. And whoever will want to be first among you, he shall be your servant,
28. even as the Son of man has not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a redemption for many."
29. And as they were departing from Jericho, a great crowd followed him.
30. And behold, two blind men, sitting by the way, heard that Jesus was passing by; and they cried out, saying, "Lord, Son of David, take pity on us."
31. But the crowd rebuked them to be quiet. But they cried out all the more, saying, "Lord, Son of David, take pity on us."
32. And Jesus stood still, and he called them and said, "What do you want, that I might do for you?"
33. They said to him, "Lord, that our eyes be opened."
34. Then Jesus, taking pity on them, touched their eyes. And immediately they saw, and they followed him.
