Luke 22:29-71

29and just as My Father has granted Me a 1kingdom, I grant you 30that you may 2eat and drink at My table in My 3kingdom, and 4you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31“Simon, Simon, behold, 5Satan has 6demanded permission to 7sift you like wheat; 32but I 8have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, when once you have turned again, 9strengthen your brothers.” 3310But he said to Him, “Lord, with You I am ready to go both to prison and to death!” 34And He said, “I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”

35And He said to them, “11When I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They said, “No, nothing.” 36And He said to them, “But now, 12whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and 13whoever has no sword is to sell his 14coat and buy one. 37For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me, ‘15And He was numbered with transgressors’; for 16that which refers to Me has its 17fulfillment.” 38They said, “Lord, look, here are two 18swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”

3919And He came out and proceeded 20as was His custom to 21the Mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed Him. 4022When He arrived at the place, He said to them, “23Pray that you may not enter into temptation.” 41And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He 24knelt down and began to pray, 42saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this 25cup from Me; 26yet not My will, but Yours be done.” 4327Now an 28angel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him. 44And 29being in agony He was praying very fervently; and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground. 45When He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow, 46and said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Get up and 30pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

4731While He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came, and the one called Judas, one of the twelve, was preceding them; and he approached Jesus to kiss Him. 48But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?” 49When those who were around Him saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the 32sword?” 50And one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear. 51But Jesus answered and said, “33Stop! No more of this.” And He touched his ear and healed him. 52Then Jesus said to the chief priests and 34officers of the temple and elders who had come against Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs 35as you would against a robber? 53While I was with you daily in the temple, you did not lay hands on Me; but 36this hour and the power of darkness are yours.”

5437Having arrested Him, they led Him away and brought Him to the house of the high priest; but 38Peter was following at a distance. 5539After they had kindled a fire in the middle of 40the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter was sitting among them. 56And a servant-girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight and looking intently at him, said, “This man was with Him too.” 57But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.” 58A little later, 41another saw him and said, “You are one of them too!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!” 59After about an hour had passed, another man began to insist, saying, “Certainly this man also was with Him, 42for he is a Galilean too.” 60But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 6143The Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, “44Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.” 62And he went out and wept bitterly.

6345Now the men who were holding 46Jesus in custody were mocking Him and beating Him, 64and they blindfolded Him and were asking Him, saying, “47Prophesy, who is the one who hit You?” 65And they were saying many other things against Him, 48blaspheming.

6649When it was day, 50the 51Council of elders of the people assembled, both chief priests and scribes, and they led Him away to their 52council chamber, saying, 67“53If You are the 54Christ, tell us.” But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe; 68and if I ask a question, you will not answer. 6955But from now on 56the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.” 70And they all said, “Are You 57the Son of God, then?” And He said to them, “5859Yes, I am.” 71Then they said, “What further need do we have of testimony? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth.”
