Jesus said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors.

And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’

Jesus told them, "In this world the kings and great men order their people around, and yet they are called ‘friends of the people.’

But Jesus intervened: "Kings like to throw their weight around and people in authority like to give themselves fancy titles.

And he said, The kings of the Gentiles are lords over them, and those who have authority are given names of honour.

But he said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those in authority over them are called benefactors.

And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’

¹ tn Here δέ (de) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the dispute among the apostles.

² tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

³ sn The title ‘benefactor,’ highlighting grace and meaning something like “helper of the people,” was even given to tyrants (2 Macc 4:2; 3 Macc 3:19; Josephus, J. W. 3.9.8 [3.459]).
