Luke 22:39-71

39And he came out, and went, as he was accustomed, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him. 40And when he was at the place, he said to them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42Saying, Father, if thou art willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.1 43And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. 44And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling to the ground. 45And when he rose up from prayer, and had come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, 46And said to them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

47And while he was yet speaking, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Jesus to kiss him. 48But Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? 49When they who were about him saw what would follow, they said to him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? 50And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. 51And Jesus answered and said, Permit ye even this. And he touched his ear, and healed him. 52Then Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, who had come to him, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staffs? 53When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

54Then they took him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest’s house. And Peter followed afar off. 55And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the courtyard, and were seated together, Peter sat down among them. 56But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him. 57And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. 58And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. 59And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Surely this man also was with him: for he is a Galilaean. 60And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crowed. 61And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, Before the cock shall crow, thou wilt deny me three times. 62And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

63And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him . 64And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee? 65And many other things blasphemously they spoke against him. 66And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying, 67Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe: 68And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go. 69After this shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. 70Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say that I am. 71And they said, What need have we of any further testimony? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
