And after John was delivered up, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom of God,

And when He going farther from there a little, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who also were in the boat mending their nets.

And immediately after they had come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

The disciples of John and those of the Pharisees were fasting. And they came and said to Him, Why do John's disciples and those of the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?

And He put on James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, the names Boanerges, which is, the Sons of Thunder.

And James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came up to Him, saying, Master, we desire that You should do for us whatever we shall ask.

And when the ten heard, they began to be indignant with James and John.
