Matthew 26:39-44

39And after going a little farther, He fell face down and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible [that is, consistent with Your will], let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I will, but as You will.”

40And He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “So, you men could not stay awake and keep watch with Me for one hour?

41Keep actively watching and praying that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”

42He went away a second time and prayed, saying, “My Father, if this cannot pass away unless I drink it, Your will be done.”

43Again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.

44So, leaving them again, He went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words once more.
