Luke 22:30

28 You are the ones who have stood by Me in My trials.

29 And I bestow on you a kingdom, just as My Father has bestowed one on Me,

so that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31 Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat.

32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith will not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
