24 And there was an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.
25 And he said, The kings of the Gentiles are lords over them, and those who have authority are given names of honour.
26 But let it not be so with you; but he who is greater, let him become like the younger; and he who is chief, like a servant.
27 For which is greater, the guest who is seated at a meal or the servant who is waiting on him? is it not the guest? but I am among you as a servant.
28 But you are those who have kept with me through my troubles;
29 And I will give you a kingdom as my Father has given one to me,
30 So that you may take food and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated like kings, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
