32 | And they went to a place which was called Gethsem'ane; and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I pray." |
33 | And he took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled. |
34 | And he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch." |
35 | And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. |
36 | And he said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee; remove this cup from me; yet not what I will, but what thou wilt." |
37 | And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour? |
38 | Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." |
39 | And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. |
40 | And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer him. |
41 | And he came the third time, and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough; the hour has come; the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. |
42 | Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand." |
43 | And immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. |
44 | Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, "The one I shall kiss is the man; seize him and lead him away under guard." |
45 | And when he came, he went up to him at once, and said, "Master!" And he kissed him. |
46 | And they laid hands on him and seized him. |
47 | But one of those who stood by drew his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his ear. |
48 | And Jesus said to them, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? |
49 | Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. But let the scriptures be fulfilled." |
50 | And they all forsook him, and fled. |
