Luke 22:16-52

¹⁶for I say to you, that from this time I shall not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the realm of God.

¹⁷And when he had taken the cup, he did graces or thankings, and said, Take ye, and part ye among you;

¹⁸for I say to you, that I shall not drink of the kind or of the generation of this vine, till the realm of God come.

¹⁹And when he had taken bread, he did thankings or graces, and brake, and gave to them, and said, This is my body, that shall be given for you; do ye this thing in mind of me or into my commemoration.

²⁰He took also the cup or the chalice, after that he had supped, and said, This cup is the new testament in my blood, that shall be shed for you.

²¹Nevertheless lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table.

²²And man’s Son goeth, as it is determined; nevertheless woe to that man, by whom he shall be betrayed.

²³And they began to seek among themselves, who it was of them, that was to do this thing.

²⁴And strife was made among them, which of them should be seen to be greatest.

²⁵But he said to them, Kings of heathen men be lords of them, and they that have power on them be called good doers,

²⁶but ye not so; but he that is the greatest among you, be made as a younger or as the younger, and he that is a before-goer, as a servant.

²⁷For who is greater, he that sitteth at the meat, or he that ministereth? whether not he that sitteth at the meat? And I am in the middle or in the midst of you, as he that ministereth.

²⁸And ye it be, that have dwelled with me in my temptations;

²⁹and I assign or dispose to you, as my Father hath assigned or disposed to me, a realm.

³⁰that ye eat and drink on my board in my realm, and sit on thrones, and deem the twelve kindreds of Israel.

³¹And the Lord said to Simon, Simon, lo! Satan hath asked you, that he should riddle you as wheat;

³²but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not; and thou sometime converted, confirm thy brethren.

³³Which said to him, Lord, I am ready to go into prison and into death with thee.

³⁴And he said, I say to thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow today, till thou thrice forsake that thou knowest me.

³⁵And he said to them, When I sent you without satchel, and scrip, and shoes, whether anything failed to you? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶Therefore he said to them, But now he that hath a satchel, take also a scrip; and he that hath none, sell his coat, and buy a sword.

³⁷For I say to you, that yet it behooveth that thing that is written to be fulfilled in me, And he is areckoned with wicked men; for those things that be of me have an end.

³⁸And they said, Lord, lo! two swords here. And he said to them, It is enough.

³⁹And he went out, and went after the custom into the hill of Olives or of Olivet; and the disciples pursued him.

⁴⁰And when he came to the place, he said to them, Pray ye, lest ye enter into temptation.

⁴¹And he was taken away from them, as much as is a stone’s cast; and he kneeled, and prayed,

⁴²and said, Father, if thou wilt, do away this cup from me; nevertheless not my will be done, but thine, or not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³And an angel appeared to him from heaven, and comforted him.

⁴⁴And he was made in agony or in anguish, and prayed the longer or prayed longer; and his sweat was made as drops of blood running down into the earth.

⁴⁵And when he was risen from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for heaviness.

⁴⁶And he said to them, What, sleep ye? Rise ye, and pray ye, that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴⁷Yet while he spake, lo! a company, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he came nigh to Jesus, to kiss him.

⁴⁸And Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou man’s Son with a kiss?

⁴⁹And they that were about him, and saw that that was to come, said to him, Lord, whether we smite with sword?

⁵⁰And one of them smote the servant of the prince of priests, and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹But Jesus answered, and said, Suffer ye till hither. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵²And Jesus said to them, that came to him, the princes of priests, and magistrates or the masters of the temple, and elder men, As to a thief ye have gone out with swords and staves?
