Matthew 20:27


← Matthew 20:26 [words of Jesus] Matthew 20:27 (KJV) [words of Jesus] Matthew 20:28 [words of Jesus] →
But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;
And whosoever will be chief among you, let him be your servant:
Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.
