Context of Luke 22:42
40When he reached the place, he told them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.” 41Then he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, knelt down, and began to pray, “Father, if you are willing, take this cup away from me — nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” 43Then an angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him. 44Being in anguish, he prayed more fervently, and his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.
