Mark 14:20-38

20He said to them, “It is one of the Twelve — the one who is dipping bread in the bowl with me.

21For the Son of Man will go just as it is written about him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for him if he had not been born.”

22As they were eating, he took bread, blessed and broke it, gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is my body.”

23Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

24He said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

25Truly I tell you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”

26After singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will fall away, because it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.

28But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.”

29Peter told him, “Even if everyone falls away, I will not.”

30“Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to him, “today, this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”

31But he kept insisting, “If I have to die with you, I will never deny you.” And they all said the same thing.

32Then they came to a place named Gethsemane, and he told his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”

33He took Peter, James, and John with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled.

34He said to them, “I am deeply grieved to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake.”

35He went a little farther, fell to the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

36And he said, “Abba, Father! All things are possible for you. Take this cup away from me. Nevertheless, not what I will, but what you will.”

37Then he came and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn’t you stay awake one hour?

38Stay awake and pray so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
