إنجيل القدّيس لوقا 46-42:11
قالَ الرَبُّ يَسُوع: ٱلوَيْلُ لَكُم، أَيُّها الفَرِّيسِيُّون! لأَنَّكُم تُؤَدُّونَ عُشُورَ النَّعْنَعِ وَالسَّذَابِ وَكُلِّ البُقُول، وَتُهْمِلُونَ العَدْلَ وَمَحَبَّةَ ٱلله. وَكانَ عَلَيْكُم أَنْ تَعْمَلُوا بِهذِهِ وَلا تُهْمِلُوا تِلْك
أَلوَيْلُ لَكُم، أَيُّهَا الفَرِّيسِيُّون! يَا مَنْ تُحِبُّونَ صُدُورَ المَجَالِسِ في المَجَامِع، وَالتَّحِيَّاتِ في السَّاحَات
أَلوَيْلُ لَكُم، لأَنَّكُم مِثْلُ القُبُورِ المَخْفِيَّة، وَالنَّاسُ يَمْشُونَ عَلَيْها وَلا يَعْلَمُون
فَأَجَابَ وَاحِدٌ مِنْ عُلَمَاءِ التَّوْرَاةِ وَقَالَ لَهُ: يا مُعَلِّم، بِقَوْلِكَ هذَا، تَشْتُمُنا نَحْنُ أَيْضًا
فَقَال: أَلوَيْلُ لَكُم، أَنْتُم أَيْضًا، يا عُلَمَاءَ التَّوْرَاة! لأَنَّكُم تُحَمِّلُونَ النَّاسَ أَحْمَالاً مُرهِقَة، وَأَنْتُم لا تَمَسُّونَ هذِهِ الأَحْمَالَ بِإِحْدَى أَصَابِعِكُم
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 20:20-28.
Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee approached him with her sons and did him homage, wishing to ask him for something.
He said to her, “What do you wish?” She answered him, “Command that these two sons of mine sit, one at your right and the other at your left, in your kingdom.”
Jesus said in reply, “You do not know what you are asking. Can you drink the cup that I am going to drink?” They said to him, “We can.”
He replied, “My cup you will indeed drink, but to sit at my right and at my left (, this) is not mine to give but is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father.”
When the ten heard this, they became indignant at the two brothers.
But Jesus summoned them and said, “You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and the great ones make their authority over them felt.
But it shall not be so among you. Rather, whoever wishes to be great among you shall be your servant;
whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave.
Just so, the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
