What was the scripture that talks about treating others like kings?

[Godzila]

I believe I read it in the bible.

It says something about treating others like kings....or humbling yourself to each other.

But more specifically it has to do with you being the slave and treating others like they were masters.

I can't seem to find that scripture anymore, and I'm thinking I made it up.

Hey Godzilla, I don't think you made it up. Check out Matthew 20:26-28 (well, how about v20-28 to put it in context a little bit more).

Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Him with her sons, bowing down, and making a request of Him. 21 And He said to her, "What do you wish?" She said to Him, "Command that in Your kingdom these two sons of mine may sit, one on Your right and one on Your left." 22 But Jesus answered and said, "You do not know what you are asking for. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?" They said to Him, "We are able." 23 He said to them, "My cup you shall drink; but to sit on My right and on My left, this is not Mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by My Father." 24 And hearing this, the ten became indignant with the two brothers. 25 But Jesus called them to Himself, and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them. 26 "It is not so among you, but whoever wishes to become great among you shall be your servant, 27 and whoever wishes to be first among you shall be your slave; 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many."​
