Matthew 20:25
But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

ὁ δὲ εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Οἱ βασιλεῖς τῶν ἐθνῶν κυριεύουσιν αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ ἐξουσιάζοντες αὐτῶν εὐεργέται καλοῦνται
And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
Ὅτε οὖν ἔνιψεν τοὺς πόδας αὐτῶν καὶ ἔλαβεν τὰ ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ ἀναπεσών πάλιν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Γινώσκετε τί πεποίηκα ὑμῖν
So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
καὶ εἶπεν Ἀμὴν λέγω ὑμῖν ἐὰν μὴ στραφῆτε καὶ γένησθε ὡς τὰ παιδία οὐ μὴ εἰσέλθητε εἰς τὴν βασιλείαν τῶν οὐρανῶν
And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
ὁ δὲ Ἰησοῦς προσκαλεσάμενος αὐτοὺς λέγει αὐτοῖς Οἴδατε ὅτι οἱ δοκοῦντες ἄρχειν τῶν ἐθνῶν κατακυριεύουσιν αὐτῶν καὶ οἱ μεγάλοι αὐτῶν κατεξουσιάζουσιν αὐτῶν
But Jesus called them to him, and saith unto them, Ye know that they which are accounted to rule over the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and their great ones exercise authority upon them.
ἄρατε τὸν ζυγόν μου ἐφ' ὑμᾶς καὶ μάθετε ἀπ' ἐμοῦ ὅτι πρᾷός εἰμι καὶ ταπεινὸς τῇ καρδίᾳ καὶ εὑρήσετε ἀνάπαυσιν ταῖς ψυχαῖς ὑμῶν·
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
וּמִן-רְבוּתָא דִּי יְהַב-לֵהּ כֹּל עַֽמְמַיָּא אֻמַיָּא וְלִשָּׁנַיָּא הֲווֹ זָאְעִין וְדָחֲלִין מִן-קֳדָמוֹהִי דִּֽי-הֲוָא צָבֵא הֲוָה קָטֵל וְדִֽי-הֲוָה צָבֵא הֲוָה מַחֵא וְדִֽי-הֲוָה צָבֵא הֲוָה מָרִים וְדִֽי-הֲוָא צָבֵא הֲוָא מַשְׁפִּֽל׃
And for the majesty that he gave him, all people, nations, and languages, trembled and feared before him: whom he would he slew; and whom he would he kept alive; and whom he would he set up; and whom he would he put down.
כָּל-קֳבֵל דְּנָה מַלְכָּא בְּנַס וּקְצַף שַׂגִּיא וַאֲמַר לְהוֹבָדָה לְכֹל חַכִּימֵי בָבֶֽל׃
For this cause the king was angry and very furious, and commanded to destroy all the wise men of Babylon.
וּנְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר מַלְכָּא שְׁלַח לְמִכְנַשׁ׀ לַֽאֲחַשְׁדַּרְפְּנַיָּא סִגְנַיָּא וּֽפַחֲוָתָא אֲדַרְגָּזְרַיָּא גְדָבְרַיָּא דְּתָבְרַיָּא תִּפְתָּיֵא וְכֹל שִׁלְטֹנֵי מְדִֽינָתָא לְמֵתֵא לַחֲנֻכַּת צַלְמָא דִּי הֲקֵים נְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר מַלְכָּֽא׃
Then Nebuchadnezzar the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counsellers, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces, to come to the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar the king had set up.
כְּעַן הֵן אִֽיתֵיכוֹן עֲתִידִין דִּי בְעִדָּנָא דִּֽי-תִשְׁמְעוּן קָל קַרְנָא מַשְׁרוֹקִיתָא קַיְתרֹס שַׂבְּכָא פְּסַנְתֵּרִין וְסוּמְפֹּנְיָה וְכֹל׀ זְנֵי זְמָרָא תִּפְּלוּן וְתִסְגְּדוּן לְצַלְמָא דִֽי-עַבְדֵת וְהֵן לָא תִסְגְּדוּן בַּהּ-שַֽׁעֲתָא תִתְרְמוֹן לְגֽוֹא-אַתּוּן נוּרָא יָקִֽדְתָּא וּמַן-הוּא אֱלָהּ דֵּי יְשֵֽׁיזְבִנְכוֹן מִן-יְדָֽי׃
Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands?
בֵּאדַיִן נְבוּכַדְנֶצַּר הִתְמְלִי חֱמָא וּצְלֵם אַנְפּוֹהִי אֶשְׁתַּנִּו עַל-שַׁדְרַךְ מֵישַׁךְ וַעֲבֵד נְגוֹ עָנֵה וְאָמַר לְמֵזֵא לְאַתּוּנָא חַד-שִׁבְעָה עַל דִּי חֲזֵה לְמֵזְיֵֽהּ׃
Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated.
אַנְתְּה מַלְכָּא מֶלֶךְ מַלְכַיָּא דִּי אֱלָהּ שְׁמַיָּא מַלְכוּתָא חִסְנָא וְתָקְפָּא וִֽיקָרָא יְהַב-לָֽךְ׃
Thou, O king, art a king of kings: for the God of heaven hath given thee a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory.
