23. Then the apostles asked each other, “Which one of us would do that to Jesus?”
24. Then the apostles began to argue about which one of them was the most important.
25. But Jesus said to them, “The kings of the world rule over their people. Men who have authority over others are called ‘very important.’
26. But you must not be like that. The greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the leader should be like the servant.
27. Who is more important: the one sitting at the table or the one serving him? You think the one at the table is more important. But I am like a servant among you!
28. “You men have stayed with me through many struggles.
29. My Father has given me the power to rule. I also give you authority to rule with me.
30. You will eat and drink at my table in my kingdom. You will sit on thrones and judge the 12 tribes of Israel.
31. “Satan has asked to test all of you as a farmer tests his wheat. Simon, Simon,

33. But Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, I am ready to go to prison with you. I will even die with you!”
34. But Jesus said, “Peter, before the rooster crows tonight, you will say you don’t know me. You will say this three times!”
35. Then Jesus said to the apostles, “When I sent you out without money, a bag, or sandals, did you need anything?”They said, “No.”
