And King Solomon answered and said to his mother, And why have you asked [for] Abishag for Adonijah? Ask for him the kingdom also; for he [is] my older brother, and he has for his companion Abiathar the priest, and Joab the son of Zeruiah the commander-in-chief.

And will you seek great things for yourself? Seek [them] not. For behold, I bring evil upon all flesh, says the Lord; but I will give [to you] your life for a prize in every place that you go.

And He said to her, "What do you desire?" She said to Him, "Grant that these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right hand and one on Your left, in Your kingdom."

But Jesus answered and said, "You do not know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup which I am about to drink, or to be baptized [with] the baptism that I am baptized with?" They said to Him, "We are able."

Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with inexpressible groanings.

You ask and do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend [it] in [gratifying] your lusts.

And He said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You [will]."

For [there is] a cup in the hand of the Lord, full of unmingled wine; and He has turned [it] from side to side, but its dregs have not been wholly poured out; all the sinners of the earth shall drink [them].

thus says the Lord God that judges His people: Behold, I have taken out of your hand the cup of calamity, the cup of My wrath; and you shall not drink it anymore.

Thus said the Lord God of Israel: Take the cup of this unmixed wine from My hand, and you shall cause all the nations to drink, to whom I send you.

He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You [will]."

saying, "Father, if You will, remove this cup from Me--nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."

Then Jesus said to Peter, "Put your sword into the sheath. Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?"

But I have a baptism to be baptized [with], and how distressed I am till it is completed!
