## Luke 22:25-30 in Context (Verses 22–33 KJV)
 
 [22 ](/kjv/luke/22/22) And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!
 
 [23 ](/kjv/luke/22/23) And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/luke/22/24) ¶ And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/luke/22/25) And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/luke/22/26) But ye *shall* not *be* so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/luke/22/27) For whether *is* greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? *is* not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
 
 [28 ](/kjv/luke/22/28) Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
 
 [29 ](/kjv/luke/22/29) And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;
 
 [30 ](/kjv/luke/22/30) That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
 
 [31 ](/kjv/luke/22/31) ¶ And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired *to have* you, that he may sift *you* as wheat:
 
 [32 ](/kjv/luke/22/32) But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
 
 [33 ](/kjv/luke/22/33) And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
 
[Luke 21](/kjv/luke/21) [Luke 23](/kjv/luke/23)
