Luke 22:24-30 — Legacy Standard Bible

Who Is Greatest?

²⁴And there arose also ^aa dispute among them as to which one of them was regarded to be greatest. ²⁵^aAnd He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’ ²⁶“But not so with you; ^arather the one who is the greatest among you must become like ^bthe youngest, and the leader like the servant. ²⁷“For ^awho is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines? But ^bI am among you as the one who serves.

²⁸“Now you are those who have stood by Me in My ^atrials, ²⁹and I grant you a ^akingdom, just as My Father granted one to Me, ³⁰that you may ^aeat and drink at My table in My ^bkingdom, and ^cyou will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
