Matthew 26:39-44

39Going a little farther, he fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”

40Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He asked Peter, “So, couldn’t you stay awake with me one hour?

41Stay awake and pray, so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

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

43And he came again and found them sleeping, because they could not keep their eyes open.

44After leaving them, he went away again and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more.
