KAI HOS AN THE-lê en hy-MEEN EI-nai PRÔ-tos ES-tai hy-MÔN DOO-los
Exegesis
The infinitive eînai {εἶναι | eînai} with the superlative adjective prôtos {πρῶτος | prôtos} ‘first’ states the aim, and the future middle indicative éstai hymôn doûlos {ἔσται ὑμῶν δοῦλος | éstai hymôn doûlos} declares the result or requirement that the aspirant must become a doûlos ‘slave,’ thus underscoring the reversal of status from highest honor to lowest role.
In context — Matthew 20:27
And whoever desires to be first among you will be your slave.
