And going on a little farther, he saw James, the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were in their boat stitching up their nets. And he said, Come after me: and they went away from their father Zebedee, who was in the boat with the servants, and came after him.


And John, answering, said, Master, we saw a man driving out evil spirits in your name, and we did not let him do it, because he was not one of us.

John said to him, Master, we saw one driving out evil spirits in your name: and we said that he might not, because he is not one of us. But Jesus said, Say not so: for there is no man who will do a great work in my name, and be able at the same time to say evil of me.


And when his disciples, James and John, saw this, they said, Lord, may we send fire from heaven and put an end to them?


And they said to him, Let us be seated, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your glory.
