Luke 22:32-51

³²But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and thou, being once converted, confirm thy brethren.

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

³⁴And he said: I say to thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, till thou thrice deniest that thou knowest me. And he said to them:

³⁵When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, did you want anything?

³⁶But they said: Nothing. Then said he unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip; and he that hath not, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword.

³⁷For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reckoned. For the things concerning me have an end.

³⁸But they said: Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough.

³⁹And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him.

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

⁴¹And he was withdrawn away from them a stone’s cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,

⁴²Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.

⁴⁴And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground.

⁴⁵And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow.

⁴⁶And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation.

⁴⁷As 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, for to kiss him.

⁴⁸And Jesus said to him: Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹And they that were about him, seeing what would follow, said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?

⁵⁰And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹But Jesus answering, said: Suffer ye thus far. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.
