32 Jesus and his disciples were on the road, going up to Jerusalem, with Jesus in the lead. The disciples were amazed while the others following behind were afraid. Taking the Twelve aside again, he told them what was about to happen to him.
33 "Look!" he said. "We’re going up to Jerusalem. The Human One will be handed over to the chief priests and the legal experts. They will condemn him to death and hand him over to the Gentiles.
34 They will ridicule him, spit on him, torture him, and kill him. After three days, he will rise up."
35 James and John, Zebedee’s sons, came to Jesus and said, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask."
36 "What do you want me to do for you?" he asked.
37 They said, "Allow one of us to sit on your right and the other on your left when you enter your glory."
