Matthew 26:36-56

361ThenG5119 JesusG2424 cameG2064 with them to a placeG5564 calledG3004 2GethsemaneG1068, and saidG3004 to His disciplesG3101, “SitG2523 hereG847 whileG2193 I goG565 overG565 thereG1563 and prayG4336.” 37And He tookG3880 with Him 3PeterG4074 and the twoG1417 sonsG5207 of ZebedeeG2199, and beganG757 to be grievedG3076 and distressedG85. 38ThenG5119 He saidG3004 to them, “4My soulG5590 is deeplyG4036 grievedG4036, to the pointG2193 of deathG2288; remainG3306 hereG5602 and 5keepG1127 watchG1127 with Me.”

39And He wentG4281 a littleG3398 beyondG4281 them, and fellG4098 on His faceG4383 and prayedG4336, sayingG3004, “My FatherG3962, ifG1487 it is possibleG1415, let 6thisG3778 cupG4221 passG3928 from Me; 7yetG4133 not as I willG2309, but as You will.” 40And He cameG2064 to the disciplesG3101 and foundG2147 them sleepingG2518, and saidG3004 to PeterG4074, “SoG3779, you men couldG2480 not 8keepG1127 watchG1127 with Me for oneG1520 hourG5610? 419KeepG1127 watchingG1127 and prayingG4336 that you may not enterG1525 into temptationG3986; 10the spiritG4151 is willingG4289, but the fleshG4561 is weakG772.”

42He wentG565 awayG565 againG3825 a secondG1208 timeG1208 and prayedG4336, sayingG3004, “My FatherG3962, ifG1487 thisG3778 11cannotG1410G3756 passG3928 awayG3928 unlessG1437G3361 I drinkG4095 it, 12Your willG2307 be doneG1096.” 43AgainG3825 He cameG2064 and foundG2147 them sleepingG2518, for their eyesG3788 were heavyG916. 44And He leftG863 them againG3825, and wentG565 awayG565 and prayedG4336 a thirdG5154 timeG5154, sayingG3004 the sameG846 thingG3056 onceG3825 moreG3825. 45ThenG5119 He cameG2064 to the disciplesG3101 and saidG3004 to them, “13Are you stillG3062 sleepingG2518 and restingG373? BeholdG2400, 14the hourG5610 is at handG1448 and the SonG5207 of ManG444 is being betrayedG3860 into the handsG5495 of sinnersG268. 46GetG1453 up, let us be goingG71; beholdG2400, the one who betraysG3860 Me is at handG1448!”

4715While He was stillG2089 speakingG2980, beholdG2400, 16JudasG2455, oneG1520 of the twelveG1427, cameG2064 up 17accompaniedG3326G846 by a largeG4183 crowdG3793 with swordsG3162 and clubsG3586, who came from the chiefG749 priestsG749 and eldersG4245 of the peopleG2992. 48NowG1161 he who was betrayingG3860 Him gaveG1325 them a signG4592, sayingG3004, “WhomeverG3739G302 I kissG5368, He is the one; seizeG2902 Him.” 49ImmediatelyG2112 Judas wentG4334 to JesusG2424 and saidG3004, “HailG5463, 18RabbiG4461!” and kissedG2705 Him. 50And JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “19FriendG2083, do whatG3739 you haveG3918 comeG3918 for.” ThenG5119 they cameG4334 and laidG1911 handsG5495 on JesusG2424 and seizedG2902 Him.

51And beholdG2400, 20oneG1520 of thoseG3588 whoG3588 were with JesusG2424 21reachedG1614 and drewG645 out his 22swordG3162, and struckG3960 the 23slaveG1401 of the highG749 priestG749 and 24cutG851 offG851 his earG5621. 52ThenG5119 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to him, “PutG654 your swordG3162 backG654 into its placeG5117; for 25allG3956 thoseG3588 who takeG2983 up the swordG3162 shall perishG622 by the swordG3162. 53OrG2228 do you thinkG1380 that I cannotG1410G3756 appealG3870 to My FatherG3962, and He will at onceG737 putG3936 at My disposalG3936 moreG4183 than twelveG1427 2627legionsG3003 of 28angelsG32? 54HowG4459 thenG3767 will 29the ScripturesG1124 be fulfilledG4137, which say that it mustG1163 happenG1096 thisG3779 wayG3779?”

55At that timeG5610 JesusG2424 saidG3004 to the crowdsG3793, “Have you comeG1831 out with swordsG3162 and clubsG3586 to arrestG4815 Me as you would againstG1909 a robberG3027? 30EveryG2596 dayG2250 I used to sitG2516 in the templeG2413 teachingG1321 and you did not seizeG2902 Me. 56But allG3650 thisG3778 has takenG1096 placeG1096 to fulfillG4137 31the ScripturesG1124 of the prophetsG4396.” ThenG5119 allG3956 the disciplesG3101 leftG863 Him and fledG5343.
