Likewise also said they all. g32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray. 33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy; 34 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch. 37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour? d 38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak. 39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words. 40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy: neither wist they what to answer him. t 41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand. f43¶ And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. c 44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall 35 And he went forward kiss, that same is he;take him, a little, and fell on the and lead him away safely. ground, and prayed that, ifs 45 And as soon as he was it were possible, the hour come, he goeth straightway might pass from him. to him, and saith, Master, 36 And he said, Abba, Fa-master; and kissed him.

Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ,the Son of the Blessed? t 62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. 63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What needwe anyfurtherwitnesses? 64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death. 65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands. f54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warm-f66¶ And as Peter was beed himself at the fire. 55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none. neath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest: 67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked 56 For many bare false wit-upon him, and said, And ness against him, but their thou also wast with Jesus of witness agreed not together.
