And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house, he put the question to them, What were you talking about on the way?

And there was an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.

Be kind to one another with a brother's love, putting others before yourselves in honour;

And there was an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.
