પણ ઈસુએ તેઓને ઉત્તર આપ્યો કે, “તમે જે માગો છો તે તમે સમજતા નથી; જે પ્યાલો હું પીવાનો છું તે તમે પી શકો છો?” તેઓએ તેમને કહ્યું કે, “અમે પી શકીએ છીએ.”

In context

20Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to him with her sons, kneeling and asking a certain thing of him.

21He said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Command that these, my two sons, may sit, one on your right hand and one on your left hand, in your Kingdom.”

22But Jesus answered, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?” They said to him, “We are able.”

23He said to them, “You will indeed drink my cup, and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; but to sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give, but it is for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”

24When the ten heard it, they were indignant with the two brothers.
