New Living Translation
Luke 22:39-49
39Then, accompanied by the disciples, Jesus left the upstairs room and went as usual to the Mount of Olives.
40There he told them, “Pray that you will not give in to temptation.”
41He walked away, about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and prayed,
42“Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.”
43Then an angel from heaven appeared and strengthened him.
44He prayed more fervently, and he was in such agony of spirit that his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood.
45At last he stood up again and returned to the disciples, only to find them asleep, exhausted from grief.
46“Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation.”
47But even as Jesus said this, a crowd approached, led by Judas, one of the twelve disciples. Judas walked over to Jesus to greet him with a kiss.
48But Jesus said, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49When the other disciples saw what was about to happen, they exclaimed, “Lord, should we fight? We brought the swords!”
