<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came to him and said, &#8220;Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask.&#8221;

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom<n id="1" /> for many.&#8221;p>

When he heard that it was Jesus the Nazarene, he began to shout,<n id="1" /> &#8220;Jesus, Son of David,<n id="2" /> have mercy<n id="3" /> on me!&#8221;

Jesus stopped and said, &#8220;Call him.&#8221; So<n id="1" /> they called the blind man and said to him, &#8220;Have courage! Get up! He is calling you.&#8221;

Jesus said to him, &#8220;Go, your faith has healed you.&#8221; Immediately he regained<n id="1" /> his sight and followed him on the road.p>

If anyone says to you, &#8216;Why are you doing this?&#8217; say, &#8216;The Lord needs it<n id="1" /> and will send it back here soon.&#8217;&#8221;

Jesus said to them, &#8220;I will ask you one question. Answer me and I will tell you by what authority I do these things:

But those tenants said to one another, &#8216;This is the heir. Come, let&#8217;s kill him and the inheritance will be ours!&#8217;

What then will the owner of the vineyard do? He will come and destroy<n id="1" /> those tenants and give the vineyard to others.<n id="2" />

Then Jesus said to them, &#8220;Give to Caesar the things that are Caesar&#8217;s, and to God the things that are God&#8217;s.&#8221;<n id="1" /> And they were utterly amazed at him.p>

Jesus said to them, &#8220;Aren&#8217;t you deceived<n id="1" /> for this reason, because you don&#8217;t know the scriptures or the power of God?

The expert in the law said to him, &#8220;That is true, Teacher; you are right to say that <b><i>he is one, and there is no one else besides himi>b>.<n id="1" />

<p class="bodyblock">If David himself calls him &#8216;Lord,&#8217; how can he be his son?&#8221;<n id="1" /> And the large crowd was listening to him with delight.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> he<n id="2" /> sat down opposite the offering box,<n id="3" /> and watched the crowd putting coins into it. Many rich people were throwing in large amounts.

Jesus said to him, &#8220;Do you see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left on another.<n id="1" /> All will be torn down!&#8221;<n id="2" />p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">&#8220;But in those days, after that suffering,<n id="1" /> <i>the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light;i>

Stay alert, then, because you do not know when the owner of the house will return &#8211; whether during evening, at midnight, when the rooster crows, or at dawn &#8211;

I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.&#8221;p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> Jesus said to them, &#8220;You will all fall away, for it is written,p> <p class="otpoetry">&#8216;<b><i>I will strike the shepherd,i>b>p> <p class="otpoetry"><i><b>and the sheep will be scatteredb>.i>&#8217;<n id="2" />p>

Jesus said to him, &#8220;I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> today &#8211; this very night &#8211; before a rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.&#8221;
