Luke 22:34-71 in English

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, and wallet, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ And he said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet; and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I say unto you, that this which is written must be fulfilled in me, And he was reckoned with transgressors: for that which concerneth me hath fulfilment.

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

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as his custom was, unto the mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was parted from them about a stone’s cast; and he kneeled down and prayed,

⁴² saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

⁴³ And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.

⁴⁵ And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,

⁴⁶ and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴⁷ While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye them thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, that were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves?

⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them.

⁵⁶ And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light of the fire, and looking stedfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him.

⁵⁷ But he denied, saying, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilæan.

⁶⁰ But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how that he said unto him, Before the cock crow this day thou shalt deny me thrice.

⁶² And he went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him.

⁶⁴ And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee?

⁶⁵ And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.

⁶⁶ And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

⁶⁸ and if I ask you, ye will not answer.

⁶⁹ But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

³⁷ For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

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

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

⁴² Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

⁴³ And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

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

⁴⁶ And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

⁴⁷ And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

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

⁵¹ And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?

⁵³ When 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.

⁵⁴ Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest’s house. And Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.

⁵⁶ But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

⁵⁷ And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilæan.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.

⁶⁴ And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

⁶⁵ And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

⁶⁶ And 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,

⁶⁷ Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

⁶⁸ And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.

⁶⁹ Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

⁶⁷ If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

⁶⁸ and if I ask you, ye will not answer.

⁶⁹ But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.

³⁴ Jesus replied, “Peter, I want you (sg) to know that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you do not know me!”

³⁵ Then Jesus asked all of them, “After I sent you out to other villages, and you went without taking any money or a traveling bag or extra sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They replied, “ That's right, we(exc) did not lack anything.”

³⁶ Then, to show them that now many people would oppose them, (OR, to show them that they needed to be prepared to protect themselves,) he said to them, “Now things will be different. So whoever among you has some money should take it with him. Likewise, he should take a carrying bag. Whoever does not have a sword should sell his coat and buy a sword.

³⁷ Because, I now tell you, something must happen to me to fulfill these words that a prophet wrote: ‘He was treated {They treated him} as though he were a criminal.’ Do not forget that everything that is {that they have} written about me in the Scriptures must be fulfilled.”

³⁸ One of the disciples said, “Lord, look! We (exc) have two swords!” Realizing that they did not understand the meaning of what he said, he replied to them, “That is enough talk about swords”!

³⁹ As Jesus left the city, he went, as he usually did, to Olive Tree Hill. His disciples went with him.

⁴⁰ When he came to the place where he often spent the night, he said to them, “Pray that God will help you whenever something tempts you.”

⁴¹ Then he went from them a distance of about thirty meters/yards. (OR, as far as someone can throw a stone.) He knelt and prayed,

⁴² “ My Father, if you are willing to do it, force me to have to undergo these terrible things that are about to happen to me MTY. But do not do what I want. Instead, do what you want.”

⁴³ Then an angel from heaven appeared to Jesus and caused him to become stronger.

⁴⁴ He was greatly distressed. So he prayed more earnestly. His sweat fell down on the ground as though it was large drops of blood.

⁴⁵ When he got up from praying, he returned to his disciples. He found that they were sleeping. They were exhausted because they were very sorrowful.

⁴⁶ He woke them and said to them, “◄I am disappointed that you are sleeping!/Why are you sleeping?► RHQ Get up! Pray that God will help you whenever you are tempted {when something like this tempts you}!”

⁴⁷ While Jesus was still speaking, a crowd came to him. Judas, even though he was one of the twelve disciples, was leading them. He came close to Jesus and kissed him on the cheek as if to greet him, but was really a signal to those with him which one was Jesus.

⁴⁸ Jesus said to him, “Judas, ◄I am disappointed that it is by kissing me that you are enabling my enemies to seize me, the one who came from heaven!/is it by kissing me as though you loved me that you are enabling my enemies to seize me, the one who came from heaven?► RHQ”

⁴⁹ When the disciples who were around Jesus realized what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we (exc) strike them with our swords?”

⁵⁰ One of his disciples drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest to kill him, but only cut off his right ear.

⁵¹ But Jesus said, “Do not do any more of that!” He touched the servant's ear and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the Temple guards, and the Jewish elders who had come to seize him, “◄It is ridiculous that you have come here with swords and clubs to capture MTY me, as if I were a bandit!/Why have you come here with swords and clubs to capture MTY me, as if I were a bandit?► RHQ Day after day I was with you in the Temple courtyard, and you did not seize me! But this is the time MTY when God is allowing you to do what you want. It is also the time MTY when God is allowing Satan, who rules MTY in the darkness, to do what he wants.”

⁵⁴ They seized Jesus and led him away. They brought him to the high priest's house. Peter followed them at a distance.

⁵⁵ They kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together. Peter sat among them.

⁵⁶ As the light from the fire shone on his face, a female servant saw him and looked intently at him. She said, “This man was also with the man whom they have arrested!”

⁵⁷ But Peter denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him!”

⁵⁸ A little later someone else saw Peter and said, “You (sg) also are one of those who were with the man they arrested!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not one of them!”

⁵⁹ About an hour later someone else said emphatically about Peter, “ The way that this man speaks shows that he is from Galilee district. Certainly this man was also with the man whom they arrested, who is from Galilee!”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you (sg) are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ The Lord Jesus turned around and looked right at Peter. Then Peter remembered what the Lord had said to him, “This night, before the rooster crows, you (sg) will deny three times that you know me.”

⁶² And Peter went out of the courtyard and cried very sorrowfully.

⁶³ The men who were guarding Jesus made fun of him and beat him.

⁶⁴ They put a blindfold on him and beat him again. Then they said to him, “ Because you(sg) say IRO that you are a prophet, prove it by telling us who it was that struck you!”

⁶⁵ They said many other evil things about him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ At dawn the next morning, many of the Jewish leaders gathered together. The group included the chief priests and the men who taught the Jewish laws. They took Jesus to the Jewish Council. There the men of the Council said to him,

⁶⁷ “If you (sg) are the Messiah, tell us!” But he replied, “If I tell you that, you will not believe me.

⁶⁸ If I ask you what you think about the Messiah, you will not answer me.

⁶⁹ But some day you will see me, the one who came from heaven, sitting next to almighty God and ruling MTY!”

⁷⁰ Then they all said, “If that is so, are you(sg) saying that you are ◄the Son of God/the Man who is also God►?” He said to them, “ Yes, it is just like you say MTY.”

⁷¹ Then they said to each other, “◄We (inc) certainly do not need anyone else to testify against him!/Why should we ask for any more people to testify against him?► RHQ” We ourselves have heard him say MTY that he is equal with God!

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”

³⁸ They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁹ He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.

⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁶ A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.

⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”

³⁸ They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁹ He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.

⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat amongst them.

⁵⁶ A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

³⁴ And he said, I say to you, Peter, before the cock's second cry today, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you out without money or bag or shoes, were you in need of anything? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ And he said to them, But now, he who has a money-bag, or a bag for food, let him take it: and he who has not, let him give his coat for money and get a sword.

³⁷ For I say to you that these words will be put into effect in me, And he was numbered among the evil-doers: for what has been said in the Writings about me has an end.

³⁸ And they said, Lord, here are two swords. And he said, It is enough.

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as his way was, to the Mountain of Olives, and the disciples went with him.

⁴⁰ And when he came to the place, he said to them, Make a prayer that you may not be put to the test.

⁴¹ And he went a little distance away from them and, falling on his knees in prayer, he said,

⁴² Father, if it is your pleasure, take this cup from me: but still, let your pleasure, not mine, be done.

⁴³ And an angel from heaven came to him, to give him strength.

⁴⁴ And being in great trouble of soul, the force of his prayer became stronger, and great drops, like blood, came from him, falling to the earth.

⁴⁵ And, getting up from prayer, he came to the disciples, and saw that they were sleeping for sorrow.

⁴⁶ And he said, Why are you sleeping? Get up, and give yourselves to prayer, so that you may not be put to the test.

⁴⁷ And while he was saying these words, there came a band of people, and Judas, one of the twelve, was in front of them, and he came near to Jesus to give him a kiss.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, Judas, will you be false to the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ And when those who were with him saw what was coming, they said, Lord, may we not make use of our swords?

⁵⁰ And one of them gave a blow to the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.

⁵¹ But Jesus, answering, said, Put up with this, at least. And touching his ear, he made it well.

⁵² And Jesus said to the chief priests and the captains of the Temple and the rulers, who had come against him, Have you come out as against a thief, with swords and sticks?

⁵³ When I was in the Temple with you every day, your hands were not stretched out against me: but this is your hour, and the authority of the dark power.

⁵⁴ And they made him a prisoner and took him away to the house of the high priest. But Peter went after them at a distance.

⁵⁵ And a fire was lighted in the middle of the open square, and they were seated together, and Peter was among them.

⁵⁶ And a certain woman-servant, seeing him in the light of the fire, and looking at him with attention, said, This man was with him.

⁵⁷ But he said, Woman, it is not true; I have no knowledge of him.

⁵⁸ And after a little time, another saw him and said, You are one of them; and he said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And after about an hour, another man said, with decision, Certainly this man was with him, for he is a Galilaean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I have no knowledge of these things of which you are talking. And straight away, while he was saying these words, there came the cry of a cock.

⁶¹ And the Lord, turning, gave Peter a look. And the words of the Lord came to Peter's mind, how he had said, This night, before the hour of the cock's cry, you will be false to me three times.

⁶² And he went out, weeping bitterly.

⁶³ And the men in whose hands Jesus was, made sport of him and gave him blows.

⁶⁴ And, covering his eyes, they said to him, Are you prophet enough to say who gave you that blow?

⁶⁵ And they said a number of other evil things against him.

⁶⁶ And when it was day, the rulers of the people came together, with the chief priests and the scribes, and they took him before their Sanhedrin, saying,

⁶⁷ If you are the Christ, say so. But he said, If I say so you will not have belief;

⁶⁸ And if I put a question to you, you will not give an answer.

⁶⁹ But in the future the Son of man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ And they all said, Are you then the Son of God? and he said, You say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What more need have we of witness? we have the very words of his mouth.

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow to-day before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you without purse and scrip and sandals, did ye lack anything? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ He said therefore to them, But now he that has a purse let him take it, in like manner also a scrip, and he that has none let him sell his garment and buy a sword;

³⁷ for I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned with the lawless: for also the things concerning me have an end.

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

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

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place he said to them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and having knelt down he prayed,

⁴² saying, Father, if thou wilt remove this cup from me: — but then, not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³ And an angel appeared to him from heaven strengthening him.

⁴⁴ And being in conflict he prayed more intently. And his sweat became as great drops of blood, falling down upon the earth.

⁴⁵ And rising up from his prayer, coming to the disciples, he found them sleeping from grief.

⁴⁶ And he said to them, Why sleep ye? rise up and pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴⁷ As he was yet speaking, behold, a crowd, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went on before them, and drew near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ And Jesus said to him, Judas, deliverest thou up the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ And they who were around him, seeing what was going to follow, said to him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

⁵⁰ And a certain one from among them smote the bondman of the high priest and took off his right ear.

⁵¹ And Jesus answering said, Suffer thus far; and having touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders, who were come against him, Have ye come out as against a robber with swords and sticks?

⁵³ When I was day by day with you in the temple ye did not stretch out your hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ And having laid hold on him, they led him away, and they led him into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And they having lit a fire in the midst of the court and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁶ And a certain maid, having seen him sitting by the light, and having fixed her eyes upon him, said, And this man was with him.

⁵⁷ But he denied him, saying, Woman, I do not know him.

⁵⁸ And after a short time another seeing him said, And thou art of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And after the lapse of about one hour another stoutly maintained it, saying, In truth this man also was with him, for also he is a Galilaean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord, turning round, looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice.

⁶² And Peter, going forth without, wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men who held him mocked him, beating him;

⁶⁴ and covering him up, asked him saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?

⁶⁵ And they said many other injurious things to him.

⁶⁶ And when it was day, the elderhood of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, were gathered together, and led him into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not at all believe;

⁶⁸ and if I should ask you, ye would not answer me at all, nor let me go;

⁶⁹ but henceforth shall the Son of man be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ And they all said, Thou then art the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What need have we any more of witness, for we have heard ourselves out of his mouth?

³⁴ And 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:

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

³⁶ But 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.

³⁷ For 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

⁴⁷ As 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.

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

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

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

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

⁵² And Jesus said to the chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and the ancients, that were come unto him: Are ye come out, as it were against a thief, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ And apprehending him, they led him to the high priest’s house. But Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them.

⁵⁶ Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light, and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him.

⁵⁷ But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him; for he is also a Galilean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

⁶² And Peter going out, wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held him, mocked him, and struck him.

⁶⁴ And they blindfolded him, and smote his face. And they asked him, saying: Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?

⁶⁵ And blaspheming, many other things they said against him.

⁶⁶ And as soon as it was day, the ancients of the people, and the chief priests and scribes, cane together; and they brought him into their council, saying: If thou be the Christ, tell us.

⁶⁷ And he saith to them: If I shall tell you, you will not believe me.

⁶⁸ And if I shall also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go.

⁶⁹ But hereafter the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then said they all: Art thou then the Son of God? Who said: You say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said: What need we any further testimony? for we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth.

³⁴ Then He said, “I say to you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.”

³⁵ And He said to them, “When I sent you without a money bag, and a knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?” And they said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise also a knapsack; and he who has no sword shall sell his garment and buy one.

³⁷ For I say to you that this which has been written must still be accomplished in Me—the saying, ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have a fulfillment.”

³⁸ So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”

³⁹ And going out, He went to the Mount of Olives, according to His custom, and His disciples also followed Him.

⁴⁰ And having come to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ And He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and He knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if You will, remove this cup from Me—nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.”

⁴³ Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him.

⁴⁴ And being in agony, He prayed more fervently. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down onto the ground.

⁴⁵ And rising up from prayer, coming to the disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow.

⁴⁶ Then He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise up and pray, lest you enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ And while He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was going before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ And those around Him, seeing what was about to happen, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answered and said, “Stop right there.” And touching his ear, He healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the captains of the temple, and the elders who had come to Him, “Have you come out, as against a bandit, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you daily in the temple, you did not try to seize Me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ And having arrested Him, they led Him and brought Him into the house of the high priest. And Peter was following from a distance.

⁵⁵ Now when they had lit a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat in their midst.

⁵⁶ And a certain servant girl, seeing him sitting at the fire and gazing at him, said, “This man was also with Him.”

⁵⁷ But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”

⁵⁸ And after a little while another person saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ Then after about one hour had passed, another was firmly insisting, saying, “Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a Galilean.”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, “Before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”

⁶² And going outside, Peter wept bitterly.

⁶³ Now the men who were holding Jesus were mocking Him and beating Him.

⁶⁴ And having blindfolded Him, they were striking His face and asking Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck You?”

⁶⁵ And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.

⁶⁶ And when it became day, the council of the elders of the people, the chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If You are the Messiah, tell us.” But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will by no means believe.

⁶⁸ But if I also question you, you will by no means answer Me or release Me.

⁶⁹ Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?” So He said to them, “You rightly say that I am.”

⁷¹ And they said, “What further testimony do we need? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth!”

³⁴ So He said, “I say to you, Peter, no rooster can crow today before you deny three times that you know me!”

³⁵ Then He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack or sandals, did you lack anything?” And they said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ So He said to them: “But now, he who has a money bag should take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword must sell his garment and buy one.

³⁷ Because I say to you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘And he was classed with the lawless’; and because the things concerning me have an end.”

³⁸ So they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”

³⁹ Then going out He went to the Mount of Olives, as His custom was, and His disciples followed Him.

⁴⁰ When He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray, so as not to enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ Then He withdrew from them about a stone's throw, knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if you would just remove this cup from me—nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done!”

⁴³ Then an angel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him.

⁴⁴ And being in anguish He prayed with total concentration; then His sweat became like clots of blood, falling to the ground.

⁴⁵ When He rose up from prayer and came to the disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow.

⁴⁶ He said to them: “Why do you sleep? Get up and pray, that you may not enter into temptation!”

⁴⁷ But while He was still speaking—wow, a crowd; and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them! He approached Jesus to kiss Him (he had given them this sign, “Whomever I kiss, it is he”).

⁴⁸ So Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of the Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around Him saw what was about to happen, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Jesus reacted by saying, “Allow at least this!” and touching his ear He healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said to the chief priests, officers of the temple, and elders who had come against Him: “Have you come out with swords and clubs as against a bandit?

⁵³ When I was with you daily in the temple, you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour; even the authority of the darkness!”

⁵⁴ Then they seized, took and brought Him to the house of the high priest, with Peter following at a distance.

⁵⁵ Now when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁶ Then a certain servant girl, seeing him sitting by the fire, looked intently at him and said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know him!”

⁵⁸ After a little while another saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ Then after about an hour had passed, another started insisting, “Surely this fellow also was with him, because he is a Galilean.”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don't know what you're talking about!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned and looked directly at Peter; then Peter remembered the Lord's word, how He had said to him, “Before a rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”

⁶² And going outside he wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who were guarding Jesus started mocking and beating Him.

⁶⁴ And having blindfolded Him they would hit His face and ask Him, saying: “Prophesy! Who was it who struck you?”

⁶⁵ And they kept saying many other insulting things to Him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, came together and brought Him before their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Messiah, tell us.” But He said to them: “If I tell you, you simply will not believe.

⁶⁸ But if I also question you, you will neither answer nor release me.

⁶⁹ Hereafter the Son of the Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ Then they all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” So He said to them, “You say it because I AM!”

⁷¹ Then they said: “What further testimony do we need? We ourselves have heard it from his mouth!”

³⁴ Jesus replied, “I'm telling you, Peter, before the cock crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”

³⁵ Jesus asked them, “When I sent you out without money, without a bag, and without an extra pair of sandals, did you lack anything?” “No, nothing,” they replied.

³⁶ “But now, if you have money you should take it, as well as a bag, and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.

³⁷ I tell you that this statement in Scripture about me must be fulfilled: ‘He was counted with the wicked.’ What was said about me is now being fulfilled.”

³⁸ “Look, Lord, here are two swords,” they said. “That's enough,” he replied.

³⁹ Jesus left and as usual went to the Mount of Olives together with his disciples.

⁴⁰ When he arrived he said to them, “Pray that you don't give in to temptation.”

⁴¹ Then he left them and walked about a stone's throw away, where he kneeled down and prayed.

⁴² “Father,” he prayed, “if you're willing, please take away this cup of suffering from me. But I want to do what you want, not what I want.”

⁴³ Then an angel appeared from heaven to strengthen him.

⁴⁴ In great distress Jesus prayed even harder, and his sweat fell like drops of blood onto the ground.

⁴⁵ He finished praying, stood up, and went over to the disciples. He found them asleep, worn out by grief.

⁴⁶ “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray so that you won't fall into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared led by Judas, one of the twelve disciples. Judas went up to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ Jesus' followers asked him, “Lord, should we attack them with our swords?”

⁵⁰ And one of them struck the high priest's servant, cutting off his right ear.

⁵¹ “Stop! No more of this!” said Jesus. He touched the man's ear and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus spoke to the chief priests, and the officers of the Temple guard, and the elders. “Am I some kind of criminal that you had to come with swords and clubs?” he asked.

⁵³ “You didn't arrest me before, even though I was with you in the Temple every day. But this is your moment now, the time when darkness is in power.”

⁵⁴ They arrested him and led him away, taking him to the chief priest's house. Peter followed at a distance.

⁵⁵ They started a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down by it. Peter was there among them.

⁵⁶ As he sat there, a servant girl noticed him in the firelight, and stared directly at him and said,

⁵⁷ “This man was with him.” But Peter denied it. “Woman, I don't know him!” he said.

⁵⁸ A little later someone else looked at him and said, “You're also one of them.” “No, I'm not!” Peter replied.

⁵⁹ About an hour later, another person insisted, “I'm sure he was with him too—he's a Galilean.”

⁶⁰ “I've no idea what you're talking about!” Peter replied. Right then, while he was still speaking, the cock crowed. The Lord turned and looked at Peter.

⁶¹ And Peter remembered what the Lord had said, how he'd told him: “Before the cock crows today, you'll deny me three times.”

⁶² Peter went out and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men guarding Jesus began to mock him and beat him.

⁶⁴ They put a blindfold on him, and then asked him, “If you can prophesy, tell us who hit you that time!”

⁶⁵ and shouted many other insults at him.

⁶⁶ Early in the morning the council of elders gathered together with the chief priests and religious teachers. Jesus was led before the council.

⁶⁷ “If you really are the Messiah, then tell us,” they said. “Even if I were to tell you, you wouldn't believe me,” Jesus replied.

⁶⁸ “And if I were to ask you a question, you wouldn't answer.

⁶⁹ But from now on the Son of man will sit at the right hand of the mighty God.”

⁷⁰ They all asked, “So are you the son of God?” “You say that I am,” Jesus replied.

⁷¹ “Why do we need any more witnesses?” they said. “We've heard it ourselves from his own mouth!”

³⁴ But he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cocke shall not crowe this day, before thou hast thrise denied that thou knewest me.

³⁵ And he saide vnto them, When I sent you without bagge, and scrip, and shooes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ Then he said to them, But nowe he that hath a bagge, let him take it, and likewise a scrip: and hee that hath none, let him sell his coate, and buy a sworde.

³⁷ For I say vnto you, That yet the same which is written, must be perfourmed in me, Euen with the wicked was he nombred: for doubtlesse those things which are written of me, haue an ende.

³⁸ And they said, Lord, beholde, here are two swordes. And he said vnto them, It is ynough.

³⁹ And he came out, and went (as he was wont) to the mount of Oliues: and his disciples also followed him.

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

⁴¹ And he was drawen aside from them about a stones cast, and kneeled downe, and prayed,

⁴² Saying, Father, if thou wilt, take away this cuppe from mee: neuerthelesse, not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³ And there appeared an Angell vnto him from heauen, comforting him.

⁴⁴ But being in an agonie, hee prayed more earnestly: and his sweate was like drops of blood, trickling downe to the ground.

⁴⁵ And he rose vp from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for heauinesse.

⁴⁶ And he said vnto them, Why sleepe ye? rise and pray, least ye enter into tentation.

⁴⁷ And while he yet spake, beholde, a companie, and he that was called Iudas one of the twelue, went before them, and came neere vnto Iesus to kisse him.

⁴⁸ And Iesus saide vnto him, Iudas, betrayest thou the Sonne of man with a kisse?

⁴⁹ Now when they which were about him, saw what would follow, they said vnto him, Lord, shall we smite with sworde?

⁵⁰ And one of them smote a seruant of the hie Priest, and strooke off his right eare.

⁵¹ Then Iesus answered, and said, Suffer them thus farre: and he touched his eare, and healed him.

⁵² Then Iesus said vnto the hie Priests, and captaines of the Temple, and the Elders which were come to him, Bee ye come out as vnto a theefe with swordes and staues?

⁵³ When I was dayly with you in the Temple, yee stretched not foorth the handes against mee: but this is your very houre, and the power of darkenesse.

⁵⁴ Then tooke they him, and led him, and brought him to the hie Priestes house. And Peter followed afarre off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the middes of the hall, and were set downe together, Peter also sate downe among them.

⁵⁶ And a certaine mayde behelde him as hee sate by the fire, and hauing well looked on him, said, This man was also with him.

⁵⁷ But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little while, another man sawe him, and saide, Thou art also of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And about the space of an houre after, a certaine other affirmed, saying. Verely euen this man was with him: for he is also a Galilean.

⁶⁰ And Peter saide, Man, I knowe not what thou sayest. And immediatly while hee yet spake, the cocke crewe.

⁶¹ Then the Lord turned backe, and looked vpon Peter: and Peter remembred the worde of the Lord, how he had said vnto him, Before the cocke crowe, thou shalt denie me thrise.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that helde Iesus, mocked him, and strooke him.

⁶⁴ And when they had blindfolded him, they smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophecie who it is that smote thee.

⁶⁵ And many other thinges blasphemously spake they against him.

⁶⁶ And assoone as it was day, the Elders of the people, and the hie Priests and the Scribes came together, and led him into their councill,

⁶⁷ Saying, Art thou that Christ? tell vs. And he said vnto them, If I tell you, ye wil not beleeue it.

⁶⁸ And if also I aske you, you will not answere me, nor let me goe.

⁶⁹ Hereafter shall the Sonne of man sit at the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then sayd they all, Art thou then ye Sonne of God? And he sayd to them, Ye say, that I am.

⁷¹ Then sayd they, What neede we any further witnes? for we our selues haue heard it of his owne mouth.

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

³⁷ For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

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

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

⁴² saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

⁴³ And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

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

⁴⁶ and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

⁴⁷ And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

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

⁵¹ And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?

⁵³ When 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.

⁵⁴ Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest’s house. And Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.

⁵⁶ But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

⁵⁷ And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.

⁶⁴ And when they had blindfolded him, they stroke him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

⁶⁵ And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

⁶⁶ And 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,

⁶⁷ Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, you will not believe:

⁶⁸ and if I also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go.

⁶⁹ Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, a cock will not crow this day, till thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, or bag, or sandals, were ye in need of anything? And they said, Of nothing. Then he said to them,

³⁶ But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag; and he that hath not, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I say to you, that this which is written must be accomplished in me: “And he was reckoned among transgressors.” For that which concerneth me also hath an end.

³⁸ And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said to him, It is enough!

³⁹ And going out, he went, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said to them, Pray that ye may not enter into temptation.

⁴¹ And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw; and kneeling down he prayed,

⁴² saying, Father, if thou art willing to remove this cup from me—yet not my will, but thine be done!

⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly. And his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling to the ground.

⁴⁵ And rising up from prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,

⁴⁶ and said to them, Why sleep ye? Rise, and pray that ye may not enter into temptation.

⁴⁷ While he was yet speaking, lo! a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, was at the head of them; and he drew near to Jesus to kiss him.

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

⁴⁹ And they who were about him, seeing what would follow, said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answering said, Permit thus far; and touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders who had come to him, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs;

⁵³ when I was daily with you in the temple, ye did not put forth your hands against me; but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the high-priest. And Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down among them.

⁵⁶ But a certain maid-servant saw him sitting at the fire, and steadily looking at him said, This man also was with him.

⁵⁷ And he denied him, saying, Woman, I do not know him.

⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And in about one hour's time, another confidently affirmed, saying, In truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilaean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before a cock crows this day, thou wilt thrice deny me.

⁶² And he went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him;

⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him, they asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?

⁶⁵ And many other things did they scoffingly say against him.

⁶⁶ And when it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together, and brought him before their council, saying,

⁶⁷ If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe;

⁶⁸ and if I ask, ye will not answer.

⁶⁹ But from this time the Son of man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say what is true; for I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What further need have we of testimony? For we have ourselves heard from his own mouth.

³⁴ “I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow today until you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”

³⁵ Then he said to them all, “When I sent you out as my messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.

³⁶ “Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.

³⁷ For, I tell you, that passage of scripture must be fulfilled in me, which says — ‘He was counted amongst the godless’; indeed all that refers to me is finding its fulfilment.”

³⁸ “Master,” they exclaimed, “look, here are two swords!” “Enough!” said Jesus.

³⁹ Jesus then went out, and made his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, followed by his disciples.

⁴⁰ And, when he reached the spot, he said to them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”

⁴¹ Then he withdrew about a stone's throw, and knelt down and began to pray.

⁴² “Father,” he said, “if it is your pleasure, spare me this cup; only, not my will but your be done.”

⁴³ Presently there appeared to him an angel from heaven, who strengthened him.

⁴⁴ And, as his anguish became intense, he prayed still more earnestly, while his sweat was like great drops of blood falling on the ground.

⁴⁵ Then he rose from praying, and came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow.

⁴⁶ “Why are you asleep?” he asked them. “Rise and pray so that you don't fall into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared in sight, led by the man called Judas, who was one of the Twelve. Judas approached Jesus, to kiss him;

⁴⁸ at which Jesus said to him, “Judas, is it by a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”

⁴⁹ But when those who were around Jesus saw what was going to happen, they exclaimed, “Master, should we use our swords?”

⁵⁰ And one of them struck the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear;

⁵¹ at which Jesus said, “Let me at least do this”; and, touching his ear, he healed the wound.

⁵² Then, turning to the chief priests and officers in charge at the Temple and the elders, who had come for him, he said, “Have you come out, as if after a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you day after day in the Temple Courts, you did not lay hands on me; but now your time has come, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ Those who had taken Jesus prisoner took him away into the house of the high priest. Peter followed at a distance.

⁵⁵ But, when they had lit a fire in the centre of the courtyard and had all sat down there, Peter seated himself in the middle of them.

⁵⁶ Presently a maidservant saw him sitting near the blaze of the fire. She looked carefully at him and said, “Why, this man was one of his companions!”

⁵⁷ But Peter denied it. “I do not know him,” he replied.

⁵⁸ A little while afterward someone else — a man — saw him and said, “Why, you are one of them!” “No,” Peter said, “I am not.”

⁵⁹ About an hour later another man declared positively, “This man also was certainly with him. Why, he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “I do not know what you are speaking about.” Instantly, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.

⁶¹ And the Master turned and looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the words that the Master had said to him — “Before a cock has crowed today, you will disown me three times”;

⁶² and he went outside and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus kept making sport of him and beating him.

⁶⁴ They blindfolded him and then questioned him. “Now play the prophet,” they said; “who was it that struck you?”

⁶⁵ And they heaped many other insults on him.

⁶⁶ At daybreak the the assembly of the elders of the people met — both the chief priests and the teachers of the Law — and took Jesus before their High Council.

⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ,” they said, “tell us so.” “If I tell you,” replied Jesus, “you will not believe me;

⁶⁸ and, if I question you, you will not answer.

⁶⁹ But from this hour the Son of Man will be seated on the right hand of God Almighty.”

⁷⁰ “Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”

⁷¹ At this they exclaimed, “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”

³⁴ “I tell you, Peter,” replied Jesus, “the cock will not crow today until you have disowned all knowledge of me three times.”

³⁵ Then he said to them all, “When I sent you out as my messengers, without either purse, or bag, or sandals, were you in need of anything?” “No; nothing,” they answered.

³⁶ “Now, however,” he said, “he who has a purse must take it and his bag as well; and he who has not must sell his cloak and buy a sword.

⁷⁰ “Are you, then, the Son of God?” they all asked. “It is true,” answered Jesus, “I am.”

⁷¹ At this they exclaimed, “Why do we want any more evidence? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips!”

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter Rock, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me has an end.”

³⁸ They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁹ He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “ Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who was called Judas Praised, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Yeshua Salvation to phileo · show affectionate love, show approval, kiss· him.

⁴⁸ But Yeshua Salvation said to him, “Judas Praised, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Yeshua Salvation answered, “Let me at least do this”— and he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Yeshua Salvation said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter Rock followed from a distance.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter Rock sat among them.

⁵⁶ A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ He denied Yeshua Salvation, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him, and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter Rock answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰ But Peter Rock said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ The Lord turned, and looked at Peter Rock. Then Peter Rock remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Yeshua Salvation mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and Torah-Teachers, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Messiah Anointed one, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be sitting at the right hand of HaG'vurah The Power (of God).”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Ben-Elohim ·Son of Elohim God·?” He said to them, “You say it, because Ena Na I AM (the Living God).”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

³⁵ Jesus said to his followers, “Remember that time I told you to go to other communities to tell people God’s story, and I told you not to take a bag, or money or extra shoes? Did you get the things you needed anyway, at that time? Or did you go short of something?” They said, “No, we didn’t go short of anything.”

³⁶ Then Jesus said, “But it is different now. Listen, if you have a bag, or money, take it with you. And you will need a long knife to fight with, too. So if you haven’t got one, sell your coat to get some money and buy one.

³⁷ You see, something is going to happen now that is in God’s book. A long time ago God got his men to write this, ‘The people reckoned God’s man was bad, and they treated him the way they treat bad criminals.’ Listen, I’m telling you, they are going to do that now. They are going to do it to me.”

³⁸ They said, “Sir, we’ve got 2 long knives here.” Jesus said, “That’s enough. We can’t talk about it any more.”

³⁴ And he sayde: I tell the Peter the cocke shall not crowe this daye tyll thou have thryse denyed that thou knewest me.

³⁵ And he sayde vnto them: when I sent you with out wallet and scripe and shoes? lacked ye eny thinge? And they sayd no.

³⁶ And he sayde to them: but nowe he that hath a wallet let him take it vp and lykewyse his scrippe. And he that hath no swearde let him sell his coote and bye one.

³⁷ For I saye vnto you that yet that which is written must be performed in me: even with the wycked was he nombred. For those thinges which are written of me have an ende.

³⁸ And they sayde: Lorde beholde here are two sweardes. And he sayde vnto them: it is ynough.

³⁹ And he came out and went as he was wote to mounte olivete. And the disciples folowed him.

⁴⁰ And when he came to the place he sayde to the: praye lest ye fall into temptacion.

⁴¹ And he gate him selfe from them about a stones cast and kneled doune and prayed

⁴² sayinge: Father yf thou wilt withdrawe this cup from me. Neverthelesse not my will but thyne be be fulfilled.

⁴³ And ther appered an angell vnto him from heaven confortinge him.

⁴⁴ And he was in an agonye and prayed somwhat longer. And hys sweate was lyke droppes of bloud tricklynge doune to the grounde.

⁴⁵ And he rose vp from prayer and came to his disciples and foude them slepinge for sorowe

⁴⁶ and sayde vnto them: Why slepe ye? Ryse and praye lest ye fall into temptacion.

⁴⁷ Whill he yet spake: beholde ther came a company and he that was called Iudas one of the twelve wet before them and preased nye vnto Iesus to kysse him.

⁴⁸ And Iesus sayd vnto him: Iudas betrayest thou the sonne of man with a kysse?

⁴⁹ When they which were about him sawe what wolde folow they sayde vnto him. Lorde shall we smite with swearde.

⁵⁰ And one of them smote a servaut of the hiest preste of all and smote of his right eare.

⁵¹ And Iesus answered and sayd: Soffre ye thus farre forthe. And he touched his eare and healed him.

⁵² Then Iesus sayde vnto the hye prestes and rulers of the temple and the elders which were come to him. Be ye come out as vnto a thefe with sweardes and staves?

⁵³ When I was dayly with you in the temple ye stretched not forth hondes agaynst me. But this is even youre very houre and the power of darcknes.

⁵⁴ Then toke they him, and ledde him, and brought him to the hye prestes housse. And peter folowed a farre of.

⁵⁵ When they had kyndled a fyre in the middes of the palys and were set doune to geder Peter also sate doune amonge them.

⁵⁶ And wone of the wenches behelde him as he sate by the fyer and set good eyesight on him and sayde: this same was also with him.

⁵⁷ Then he denyed hym sayinge: woman I knowe him not

⁵⁸ And after a lytell whyle another sawe him and sayde: thou arte also of them. And Peter sayd man I am not.

⁵⁹ And aboute the space of an houre after another affirmed sayinge: verely even this felowe was with hym for he is of Galile

⁶⁰ and Peter sayde: man I woote not what thou sayest. And immediatly whyll he yet spake the cocke crewe.

⁶¹ And the Lorde tourned backe and loked apon Peter. And Peter remembred the wordes of the Lorde how he sayde vnto him before the cocke crowe thou shalt denye me thryse.

⁶² And Peter went out and wepte bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that stode about Iesus mocked him and smoote him

⁶⁴ and blyndfolded him and smoote his face. And axed him sayinge: arede who it is that smoote the?

⁶⁵ And many other thinges despytfullye sayd they agaynst him.

⁶⁶ And assone as it was daye the elders of the people and the hye prestes and scribes came to gedder and ledde him into their counsell sayinge:

⁶⁷ arte thou very Christ? tell vs. And he sayde vnto the: yf I shall tell you ye will not beleve

⁶⁸ And yf also I axe you ye will not answere me or let me goo.

⁶⁹ Herafter shall the sonne of man sit on the ryght honde of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then sayde they all: Arte thou then the sonne of God? He sayd to them: ye saye that I am.

⁷¹ Then sayde they: what nede we eny further witnes? We oure selves have herde of his awne mouthe.

³⁴ Jesus replied, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, before you deny three times that you know me.”

³⁵ Then Jesus said to them, “When I sent you out without a purse, a bag of provisions, or shoes, did you lack anything?” They answered, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, the one who has a purse, let him take it, and also a bag of provisions. The one who does not have a sword should sell his cloak and buy one.

³⁷ For I say to you, what is written about me must be fulfilled, 'He was counted with the lawless ones.' For what is predicted about me is being fulfilled.”

³⁸ Then they said, “Lord, look! Here are two swords.” He said to them, “It is enough.”

³⁹ Jesus went, as he often did, to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him.

⁴⁰ When they arrived, he said to them, “Pray that you do not enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ He went away from them about a stone's throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless not my will, but yours be done.”

⁴³ Then an angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of their sorrow,

⁴⁶ and asked them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise and pray, that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, behold, a crowd appeared, with Judas, one of the twelve, leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him,

⁴⁸ but Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around Jesus saw what was happening, they said, “Lord, should we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ Jesus said, “That is enough!” He touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, to the captains of the temple, and to elders who came against him, “Do you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not lay your hands on me. But this is your hour, and the authority of darkness.”

⁵⁴ Seizing him, they led him away, and brought him into the high priest's house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁵ After they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them.

⁵⁶ A certain female servant saw him as he sat in the light of the fire, and looked straight at him and said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ But Peter denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.”

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him, and said, “You are also one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”

⁵⁹ After about an hour another man insisted and said, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean.”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying.” Immediately, while he was speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ Turning, the Lord looked at Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, when he said to him, “Before a rooster crows today you will deny me three times.”

⁶² Peter went outside and wept bitterly.

⁶³ Then the men guarding Jesus mocked and beat him.

⁶⁴ They put a cover over him and asked him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is the one who hit you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against Jesus, blaspheming him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. They led him into the council

⁶⁷ and said, “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask you, you will not answer.

⁶⁹ But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Then you are the Son of God?” Jesus said to them, “You say that I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we still need a witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.”

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”

³⁸ They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁹ He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,

⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.

⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.

⁵⁶ A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock will not crow this day, before thou wilt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, and sack, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶ Then said he to them, But now he that hath a purse, let him take it , and likewise his sack: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

³⁷ For I say to you, that this which is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

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

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said to them, Pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed.

⁴² Saying, Father, if thou art willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

⁴⁴ And being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling to the ground.

⁴⁵ And when he arose from prayer, and had come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow:

⁴⁶ And said to them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

⁴⁷ And 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.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ When they who were about him, saw what would follow, they said to him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

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

⁵¹ And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Then 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?

⁵³ When 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.

⁵⁴ Then they took him, and led him , and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed at a distance.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.

⁵⁶ But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

⁵⁷ And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And about the space of one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying, In truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crowed.

⁶¹ And 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 thrice.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus, mocked him, and smote him .

⁶⁴ And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

⁶⁵ And many other things blasphemously they spoke against him.

⁶⁶ And 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,

⁶⁷ Saying, Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe.

⁶⁸ And if I also ask you , ye will not answer me, nor let me go.

⁶⁹ Hereafter will the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What need have we of any further testimony? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judah, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Yeshua to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Yeshua said to him, “Judah, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

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

⁵¹ But Yeshua answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.

⁵² Yeshua said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷ “If you are the Messiah, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,

⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

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

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

³⁶ Therefore 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.

³⁷ For 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.

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

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

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

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

⁴² and 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.

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

⁴⁴ And 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.

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

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

⁴⁷ Yet 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.

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

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

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

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

⁵² And 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?

⁵³ When I was each day with you in the temple, ye stretched not out hands into me; but this is your hour, and the power of darknesses.

⁵⁴ And they took him, and led to the house of the prince of priests; and Peter pursued him afar.

⁵⁵ And when a fire was kindled in the middle of the great house, and they sat about, Peter was in the middle of them.

⁵⁶ Whom when a damsel, or a handmaid/a handmaiden, had seen sitting at the light, and had beheld him, she said, And this was with him.

⁵⁷ And he denied him, and said, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little another man saw him, and said, And thou art of them. But Peter said, A! man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And when a space was made as of one hour, another affirmed, and said, Truly this was with him; for also he is of Galilee.

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And anon yet while he spake, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turned again or And the Lord turned, and beheld Peter; and Peter had mind of the word of Jesus, as he had said, Before that the cock crow, thrice thou shalt deny me.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held him scorned him, and smote him.

⁶⁴ And they blindfolded him, and smote his face, and asked him, and said, Declare, thou Christ, to us, who is he that smote thee? or Prophesy thou, who is it that smote thee?

⁶⁵ Also they blaspheming said against him many other things. Also they blaspheming said many other things against him.

⁶⁶ And as the day was come, the elder men of the people, and the princes of priests, and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, and said,

⁶⁷ If thou art Christ, say to us. And he said to them, If I say to you, ye will not believe to me;

⁶⁸ and if I ask, ye will not answer to me, neither ye will deliver me.

⁶⁹ But after this time man’s Son shall be sitting on the right half of the virtue of God.

⁷⁰ Therefore all said, Then art thou the Son of God? And he said, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What yet desire we witnessing? for we ourselves have heard of his mouth.

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

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

³⁶ Therefore 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.

³⁷ For 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.

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

³⁹ And he went out, and went after the custom into the hill of Olives or the hill of Olivet; and the disciples (pur)sued him. (And he went out, and as was his custom, went over to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him.)

⁴⁰ And when he came to the place, he said to them, Pray ye, lest ye enter into temptation, (or Pray ye, lest ye enter into, or be put to, the test).

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

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

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

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

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

⁴⁶ And he said to them, What, sleep ye? Rise ye, and pray ye, that ye enter not into temptation. (And he said to them, Why do ye sleep? Rise, and pray, so that ye do not enter into, or be put to, the test.)

⁴⁷ Yet 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.

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

⁴⁹ And they that were about him, and saw that that was to come, said to him, Lord, whether we smite (them) with (our) sword(s)? (or Lord, shall we strike them with the swords?)

⁵⁰ And one of them smote the servant of the prince of (the) priests (or And one of them struck the servant of the High Priest), and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, and said, Suffer ye till hither (or Allow this to be). And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said to them, that came to him, the princes of (the) priests, and (the) magistrates or the masters of the temple, and (the) elder men, As to a thief ye have gone out with swords and staves? (And Jesus said to those, who came to take hold of him, the high priests, and the magistrates, or the officials, of the Temple, and the elders, You have gone out with swords and bats, or clubs, like after a thief?)

⁵³ When I was each day with you in the temple, ye stretched not out (your) hands into me; but this is your hour, and the power of darknesses.

⁵⁴ And they took him, and led (him) to the house of the prince of (the) priests; and Peter (pur)sued him afar. (And they took hold of him, and then led him to the High Priest’s house; and Peter followed him from afar.)

⁵⁵ And when a fire was kindled in the middle of the great house, and they sat about, Peter was in the middle of them. (And when a fire was kindled in the middle of the courtyard, they sat around it, and Peter was in their midst.)

⁵⁶ Whom when a damsel, or a handmaid, or a handmaiden, had seen sitting at the light, and had beheld him, she said, And this (man) was with him (or Yea, he was with him).

⁵⁷ And he denied him (or But he denied it), and said, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸ And after a little another man saw him, and said, And thou art (one) of them. But Peter said, A! man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And when a space was made as of one hour, another affirmed, and said, Truly this (man) was with him; for also he is of Galilee, (or Surely he was with him; for he is also from Galilee).

⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And anon yet while he spake, the cock crew, (or And at once while he was still speaking, the cock crowed).

⁶¹ And the Lord turned again or And the Lord turned, and beheld Peter; and Peter had mind of the word(s) of Jesus, as he had said, (or and Peter remembered Jesus’ words, that he had said), Before that the cock crow, thrice thou shalt deny me.

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held him scorned him, and smote him (or and struck him).

⁶⁴ And they blindfolded him, and smote his face, and asked him, and said, Declare, thou Christ, to us, who is he that smote thee? or Prophesy thou, who is it that smote thee? (or Prophesy thou! who is it that struck thee?)

⁶⁵ Also they blaspheming said against him many other things. Also they blaspheming said many other things against him.

⁶⁶ And as the day was come, the elder men of the people, and the princes of (the) priests, and the scribes came together, (or the elders of the people, and the high priests, and the scribes came together), and led him into their council, and said,

⁶⁷ If thou art Christ, say to us. And he said to them, If I say to you, ye will not believe to me; (If thou art the Messiah, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe me;)

⁶⁸ and if I ask (you), ye will not answer to me, neither ye will deliver me or neither ye shall (give me) leave. (and if I ask you, ye will not answer me, nor will ye let me go.)

⁶⁹ But after this time man’s Son shall be sitting on the right half of the virtue of God. (But after this time man’s Son shall be sitting at the right hand, or on the right side, of the power of God.)

⁷⁰ Therefore all said, Then art thou the Son of God? And he said, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said, What yet desire we witnessing? for we ourselves have heard of his mouth. (And they said, Why do we need any more testimony? for we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth.)

³⁴ And he seide, Y seie to thee, Petir, the cok schal not crowe to dai, til thou thries forsake that thou knowist me.

³⁵ And he seide to hem, Whanne Y sente you with outen sachel, and scrippe, and schone, whether ony thing failide to you?

³⁶ And thei seiden, No thing. Therfor he seide to hem, But now he that hath a sachel, take also and a scrippe; and he that hath noon, selle his coote, and bigge a swerd.

³⁷ For Y seie to you, that yit it bihoueth that thing that is writun to be fulfillid in me, And he is arettid with wickid men; for tho thingis that ben of me han ende.

³⁸ And thei seiden, Lord, lo! twei swerdis here. And he seide to hem, It is ynowy.

³⁹ And he yede out, and wente aftir the custom in to the hille of Olyues; and the disciplis sueden hym.

⁴⁰ And whanne he cam to the place, he seide to hem, Preye ye, lest ye entren in to temptacioun.

⁴¹ And he was taken awei fro hem, so myche as is a stonys cast; and he knelide,

⁴² and preyede, and seide, Fadir, if thou wolt, do awei this cuppe fro me; netheles not my wille be don, but thin.

⁴³ And an aungel apperide to hym fro heuene, and coumfortide hym. And he was maad in agonye, and preyede the lenger;

⁴⁴ and his swot was maad as dropis of blood rennynge doun in to the erthe.

⁴⁵ And whanne he was rysun fro preier, and was comun to hise disciplis, he foond hem slepynge for heuynesse.

⁴⁶ And he seide to hem, What slepen ye? Rise ye, and preye ye, that ye entre not in to temptacioun.

⁴⁷ Yit while he spak, lo! a company, and he that was clepid Judas, oon of the twelue, wente bifor hem; and he cam to Jhesu, to kisse hym.

⁴⁸ And Jhesus seide to hym, Judas, `with a coss `thou bytrayest `mannys sone.

⁴⁹ And thei that weren aboute hym, and sayn that that was to come, seiden to hym, Lord, whether we smyten with swerd?

⁵⁰ And oon of hem smoot the seruaunt of the prince of preestis, and kittide of his riyt eere.

⁵¹ But Jhesus answerde, and seide, Suffre ye til hidir. And whanne he hadde touchid his eere, he heelide hym.

⁵² And Jhesus seide to hem, that camen to hym, the princis of preestis, and maiestratis of the temple, and eldre men, As to a theef ye han gon out with swerdis and staues?

⁵³ Whanne Y was ech dai with you in the temple, ye streiyten not out hondis in to me; but this is youre our, and the power of derknessis.

⁵⁴ And thei token him, and ledden to the hous of the prince of prestis; and Petir suede hym afer.

⁵⁵ And whanne a fier was kyndelid in the myddil of the greet hous, and thei saten aboute, Petir was in the myddil of hem.

⁵⁶ Whom whanne a damysel hadde seyn sittynge `at the liyt, and hadde biholdun hym, sche seide, And this was with hym.

⁵⁷ And he denyede hym, and seide, Womman, Y knowe hym not.

⁵⁸ And aftir a litil another man siy hym, and seide, And thou art of hem. But Petir seide, A! man, Y am not.

⁵⁹ And whanne a space was maad as of on our, another affermyd, and seide, Treuli this was with hym; for also he is of Galilee.

⁶⁰ And Petir seide, Man, Y noot what thou seist. And anoon yit while he spak, the cok crewe.

⁶¹ And the Lord turnede ayen, and bihelde Petre; and Petre hadde mynde on the word of Jhesu, as he hadde seid, For bifor that the cok crowe, thries thou schalt denye me.

⁶² And Petre yede out, and wepte bittirli.

⁶³ And the men that helden hym scorneden hym, and smyten hym.

⁶⁴ And thei blynfelden hym, and smyten his face, and axiden hym, and seiden, Arede, thou Crist, to vs, who is he that smoot thee?

⁶⁵ Also thei blasfemynge seiden ayens hym many other thingis.

⁶⁶ And as the day was come, the eldre men of the puple, and the princis of prestis, and the scribis camen togidir, and ledden hym in to her councel,

⁶⁷ and seiden, If thou art Crist, seie to vs.

⁶⁸ And he seide to hem, If Y seie to you, ye schulen not bileue to me; and if Y axe, ye schulen not answere to me, nethir ye schulen delyuere me.

⁶⁹ But aftir this tyme mannys sone schal be sittynge on the riyt half of the vertu of God.

⁷⁰ Therfor alle seiden, Thanne art thou the sone of God? And he seide, Ye seien that Y am.

⁷¹ And thei seiden, What yit desiren we witnessyng? for we vs silf han herd of his mouth.

³⁴ and he said, 'I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'

³⁵ And he said to them, 'When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and sandals, did ye lack anything?' and they said, 'Nothing.'

³⁶ Then said he to them, 'But, now, he who is having a bag, let him take it up, and in like manner also a scrip; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,

³⁷ for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'

³⁸ And they said, 'Sir, lo, here are two swords;' and he said to them, 'It is sufficient.'

³⁹ And having gone forth, he went on, according to custom, to the mount of the Olives, and his disciples also followed him,

⁴⁰ and having come to the place, he said to them, 'Pray ye not to enter into temptation.'

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone's cast, and having fallen on the knees he was praying,

⁴² saying, 'Father, if Thou be counselling to make this cup pass from me — ;but, not my will, but Thine be done.' —

⁴³ And there appeared to him a messenger from heaven strengthening him;

⁴⁴ and having been in agony, he was more earnestly praying, and his sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling upon the ground.

⁴⁵ And having risen up from the prayer, having come unto the disciples, he found them sleeping from the sorrow,

⁴⁶ and he said to them, 'Why do ye sleep? having risen, pray that ye may not enter into temptation.'

⁴⁷ And while he is speaking, lo, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them, and he came nigh to Jesus to kiss him,

⁴⁸ and Jesus said to him, 'Judas, with a kiss the Son of Man dost thou deliver up?'

⁴⁹ And those about him, having seen what was about to be, said to him, 'Sir, shall we smite with a sword?'

⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,

⁵¹ and Jesus answering said, 'Suffer ye thus far,' and having touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said to those having come upon him — chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders — 'As upon a robber have ye come forth, with swords and sticks?

⁵³ while daily I was with you in the temple, ye did stretch forth no hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.'

⁵⁴ And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,

⁵⁵ and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,

⁵⁶ and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, 'And this one was with him!'

⁵⁷ and he disowned him, saying, 'Woman, I have not known him.'

⁵⁸ And after a little, another having seen him, said, 'And thou art of them!' and Peter said, 'Man, I am not.'

⁵⁹ And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, 'Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'

⁶⁰ and Peter said, 'Man, I have not known what thou sayest;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him — 'Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;'

⁶² and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking him, beating him;

⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him, they were striking him on the face, and were questioning him, saying, 'Prophesy who he is who smote thee?'

⁶⁵ and many other things, speaking evilly, they spake in regard to him.

⁶⁶ And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led him up to their own sanhedrim,

⁶⁷ saying, 'If thou be the Christ, tell us.' And he said to them, 'If I may tell you, ye will not believe;

⁶⁸ and if I also question you, ye will not answer me or send me away;

⁶⁹ henceforth, there shall be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.'

⁷⁰ And they all said, 'Thou, then, art the Son of God?' and he said unto them, 'Ye say it, because I am;'

⁷¹ and they said, 'What need yet have we of testimony? for we ourselves did hear it from his mouth.'
