5 And Jesus answered and said to them, "For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept.
6 But from the beginning of the creation God made them male and female.
7 For this cause, a man shall leave his father and mother and stick to his wife;

30 without receiving a hundred times as much now in this time, houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and lands after persecution and in the age to come, the genuine and absolute fullness of life of the Kingdom Age.

32 And they were in the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus went ahead of them, and they were amazed, and as they followed, they were in reverence and obedience. And He again took the twelve and began to tell them what was about to happen to Him,

34 And they shall mock Him, and shall scourge Him, and shall spit on Him, and shall kill Him, and the third day He shall rise again."
35 And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to Him, saying, "Master, we desire that You should do for us whatever we shall ask."
36 And He said to them, "What do you desire that I should do for you?"
37 They said to Him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one on Your Right Hand, and the other on Your Left Hand, in Your Glory."
38 But Jesus said to them, "You don't know what you ask for.  Can you drink of the cup that I drink of and be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?"
39 And they said to Him, "We can." And Jesus said to them, "You shall indeed drink of the cup that I drink of, and with the baptism that I am baptized you shall be baptized.
40 But to sit on My Right Hand and on My Left Hand is not Mine to give, but it shall be given to them for whom it is prepared."
41 And when the ten heard it, they began to be very displeased with James and John.
42 But Jesus called them to Himself and said to them, "You know that those who are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
43 However, it shall not be like this among you, but whoever desires to be great among you shall be your servant,
44 and whoever of you desires to be the highest shall be servant of all.

49 And Jesus stood still, and commanded him to be called. And they called the blind man, saying to him, "Be of good comfort, rise; He calls you."
50 And he, casting away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
51 And Jesus answered and said to him, "What do you desire that I should do for you?" The blind man said to Him, "Lord, that I might receive my sight."
52 And Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your supernatural belief and trust has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus in the way.
