1 And two daies after followed the feast of the Passeouer, and of vnleauened bread: and the hie Priests, & Scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death. It was now two days before the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to arrest him by stealth and kill him, Now the Passover and the Festival of Unleavened Bread were only two days away, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were scheming to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him.
2 But they sayde, Not in the feast day, least there be any tumult among the people. for they said, “Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar from the people.” “But not during the festival,” they said, “or the people may riot.”
3 And when hee was in Bethania in the house of Simon the leper, as he sate at table, there came a woman hauing a boxe of oyntment of spikenarde, very costly, and shee brake the boxe, and powred it on his head. And while he was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he was reclining at table, a woman came with an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly, and she broke the flask and poured it over his head. While he was in Bethany, reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.
4 Therefore some disdained among themselues, and sayde, To what ende is this waste of oyntment? There were some who said to themselves indignantly, “Why was the ointment wasted like that? Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, “Why this waste of perfume?
5 For it might haue bene sold for more then three hundreth pence, and bene giuen vnto the poore, and they murmured against her. For this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor.” And they scolded her. It could have been sold for more than a year’s wages and the money given to the poor.” And they rebuked her harshly.
6 But Iesus saide, Let her alone: why trouble yee her? Shee hath wrought a good worke on me. But Jesus said, “Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. “Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me.
7 For yee haue the poore with you alwaies, and when yee will yee may doe them good, but me yee shall not haue alwaies. For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you will not always have me. The poor you will always have with you, and you can help them any time you want. But you will not always have me.
8 She hath done that she coulde: she came afore hand to anoynt my body to the burying. She has done what she could; she has anointed my body beforehand for burial. She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial.
9 Verely I say vnto you, wheresoeuer this Gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done, shalbe spoken of in remembrance of her. And truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her.” Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”
10 Then Iudas Iscariot, one of the twelue, went away vnto the hie Priestes, to betray him vnto them. Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went to the chief priests in order to betray him to them. Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.
11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised that they woulde giue him monie: therefore he sought howe he might conueniently betraie him. And when they heard it, they were glad and promised to give him money. And he sought an opportunity to betray him. They were delighted to hear this and promised to give him money. So he watched for an opportunity to hand him over.
12 Nowe the first day of vnleauened bread, when they sacrificed the Passeouer, his disciples sayde vnto him, Where wilt thou that we goe and prepare, that thou mayest eate the Passeouer? And on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they sacrificed the Passover lamb, his disciples said to him, “Where will you have us go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?” On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, Jesus’ disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”
13 Then hee sent foorth two of his disciples, and sayde vnto them, Goe yee into the citie, and there shall a man meete you bearing a pitcher of water: followe him. And he sent two of his disciples and said to them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him, So he sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him.
14 And whithersoeuer he goeth in, say yee to the good man of the house, The Master sayeth, Where is the lodging where I shal eate the Passeouer with my disciples? and wherever he enters, say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says, Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ Say to the owner of the house he enters, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’
15 And he wil shewe you an vpper chamber which is large, trimmed and prepared: there make it readie for vs. And he will show you a large upper room furnished and ready; there prepare for us.” He will show you a large room upstairs, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”
16 So his disciples went foorth, and came to the citie, and found as he had said vnto them, and made readie the Passeouer. And the disciples set out and went to the city and found it just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover. The disciples left, went into the city and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.
17 And at euen he came with the twelue. And when it was evening, he came with the twelve. When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve.
18 And as they sate at table and did eate, Iesus said, Verely I say vnto you, that one of you shall betray me, which eateth with me. And as they were reclining at table and eating, Jesus said, “Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.” While they were reclining at the table eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me—one who is eating with me.”
19 Then they began to be sorowful & to say to him one by one, Is it I? And another, Is it I? They began to be sorrowful and to say to him one after another, “Is it I?” They were saddened, and one by one they said to him, “Surely you don’t mean me?”
20 And he answered and sayde vnto them, It is one of the twelue that dippeth with mee in the platter. He said to them, “It is one of the twelve, one who is dipping bread into the dish with me. “It is one of the Twelve,” he replied, “one who dips bread into the bowl with me.
21 Truly the Sonne of man goeth his way, as it is written of him: but woe bee to that man, by whome the Sonne of man is betrayed: it had beene good for that man, if hee had neuer beene borne. For the Son of Man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born.” The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”
22 And as they did eate, Iesus tooke the bread, and when hee had giuen thankes, he brake it and gaue it to them, and sayde, Take, eate, this is my bodie. And as they were eating, he took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to them, and said, “Take; this is my body.” While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”
23 Also he tooke the cuppe, and when he had giuen thankes, gaue it to them: and they all dranke of it. And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, and they all drank of it. Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it.
24 And he saide vnto them, This is my blood of that newe Testament, which is shed for many. And he said to them, “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. “This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many,” he said to them.
25 Verely I say vnto you, I wil drinke no more of the fruit of ye vine vntill that day, that I drinke it newe in the kingdome of God. Truly, I say to you, I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.” “Truly I tell you, I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”
26 And when they had sung a Psalme, they went out to the mount of Oliues. And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
27 Then Iesus said vnto them, Al ye shall be offended by mee this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepheard, and the sheepe shall be scattered. And Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’ “You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written: “’I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’
28 But after that I am risen, I will goe into Galile before you. But after I am raised up, I will go before you to Galilee.” But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
29 And Peter saide vnto him, Although all men should be offended at thee, yet would not I. Peter said to him, “Even though they all fall away, I will not.” Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.”
30 Then Iesus saide vnto him, Verely I say vnto thee, this day, euen in this night, before the cocke crowe twise, thou shalt denie me thrise. And Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice you yourself will disown me three times.”
31 But he saide more earnestly. If I shoulde die with thee, I will not denie thee: likewise also saide they all. But he said emphatically, “If I must die with you, I will not deny you.” And they all said the same. But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.
32 After, they came into a place named Gethsemane: then hee saide to his disciples, Sit yee here, till I haue praied. And they went to a place called Gethsemane. And he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.” They went to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.”
33 And hee tooke with him Peter, and Iames, and Iohn, and hee began to be troubled, and in great heauinesse, And he took with him Peter and James and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled. He took Peter, James and John along with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled.
34 And saide vnto them, My soule is very heauie, euen vnto the death: tarie here, and watch. And he said to them, “My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and watch.” “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death,” he said to them. “Stay here and keep watch.”
35 So he went forward a litle, and fell downe on the ground, and praied, that if it were possible, that houre might passe from him. And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. Going a little farther, he fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour might pass from him.
36 And he saide, Abba, Father, all things are possible vnto thee: take away this cup from me: neuertheles not that I will, but that thou wilt, be done. And he said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Remove this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.” “Abba, Father,” he said, “everything is possible for you. Take this cup from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.”
37 Then hee came, and founde them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? Couldest not thou watche one houre? And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, “Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour? Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Simon,” he said to Peter, “are you asleep? Couldn’t you keep watch for one hour?
38 Watch ye, and pray, that ye enter not into tentation: the spirite in deede is ready, but the flesh is weake. Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
39 And againe hee went away, and praied, and spake the same wordes. And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. Once more he went away and prayed the same thing.
40 And he returned, & founde them a sleepe againe: for their eyes were heauie: neither knewe they what they should answere him. And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy, and they did not know what to answer him. When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. They did not know what to say to him.
41 And he came the third time, and said vnto them, Sleepe henceforth, and take your rest: it is ynough: the houre is come: beholde, the Sonne of man is deliuered into the hands of sinners. And he came the third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough; the hour has come. The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. Returning the third time, he said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Enough! The hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners.
42 Rise vp: let vs go: loe, he that betraieth me, is at hand. Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand.” Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”
43 And immediately while hee yet spake, came Iudas that was one of the twelue, and with him a great multitude with swordes and staues from the hie Priests, and Scribes, and Elders. And immediately, while he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. Just as he was speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, appeared. With him was a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, the teachers of the law, and the elders.
44 And he that betraied him, had giuen them a token, saying, Whomsoeuer I shall kisse, he it is: take him and leade him away safely. Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, “The one I will kiss is the man. Seize him and lead him away under guard.” Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The one I kiss is the man; arrest him and lead him away under guard.”
45 And assoone as hee was come, hee went straightway to him, and saide, Haile Master, and kissed him. And when he came, he went up to him at once and said, “Rabbi!” And he kissed him. Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, “Rabbi!” and kissed him.
46 Then they laide their handes on him, and tooke him. And they laid hands on him and seized him. The men seized Jesus and arrested him.
47 And one of them that stoode by, drewe out a sword, and smote a seruant of the hie Priest, and cut off his eare. But one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear. Then one of those standing near drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.
48 And Iesus answered and saide to them, Ye be come out as against a thiefe with swordes, and with staues, to take me. And Jesus said to them, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? “Am I leading a rebellion,” said Jesus, “that you have come out with swords and clubs to capture me?
49 I was daily with you teaching in the Temple, and yee tooke me not: but this is done that the Scriptures should be fulfilled. Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. But let the Scriptures be fulfilled.” Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled.”
50 Then they all forsooke him, and fled. And they all left him and fled. Then everyone deserted him and fled.
51 And there followed him a certaine yong man, clothed in linnen vpon his bare bodie, and the yong men caught him. And a young man followed him, with nothing but a linen cloth about his body. And they seized him, A young man, wearing nothing but a linen garment, was following Jesus. When they seized him,
52 But he left his linnen cloth, and fled from them naked. but he left the linen cloth and ran away naked. he fled naked, leaving his garment behind.
53 So they led Iesus away to the hie Priest, and to him came together all the hie Priestes, and the Elders, and the Scribes. And they led Jesus to the high priest. And all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes came together. They took Jesus to the high priest, and all the chief priests, the elders and the teachers of the law came together.
54 And Peter folowed him afarre off, euen into the hall of the hie Priest, and sate with the seruants, and warmed himselfe at the fire. And Peter had followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he was sitting with the guards and warming himself at the fire. Peter followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. There he sat with the guards and warmed himself at the fire.
55 And the hie Priests, and all the Councill sought for witnesse against Iesus, to put him to death, but found none. Now the chief priests and the whole council were seeking testimony against Jesus to put him to death, but they found none. The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death, but they did not find any.
56 For many bare false witnesse against him, but their witnesse agreed not together. For many bore false witness against him, but their testimony did not agree. Many testified falsely against him, but their statements did not agree.
57 Then there arose certaine, and bare false witnesse against him, saying, And some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying, Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him:
58 We hearde him say, I will destroy this Temple made with hands, & within three daies I will builde another, made without hands. “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another, not made with hands.’” “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple made with human hands and in three days will build another, not made with hands.’”
59 But their witnesse yet agreed not together. Yet even about this their testimony did not agree. Yet even then their testimony did not agree.
60 Then the hie Priest stoode vp amongst them, and asked Iesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? What is the matter that these beare witnesse against thee? And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, “Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?” Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?”
61 But hee helde his peace, and answered nothing. Againe the hie Priest asked him, and sayde vnto him, Art thou that Christ the Sonne of the Blessed? But he remained silent and made no answer. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” But Jesus remained silent and gave no answer. Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”
62 And Iesus said, I am he, and yee shall see the Sonne of man sitte at the right hande of the power of God, and come in the clouds of heauen. And Jesus said, “I am, and you will see the Son of Man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”
63 Then the hie Priest rent his clothes, and sayd, What haue we any more neede of witnesses? And the high priest tore his garments and said, “What further witnesses do we need? The high priest tore his clothes. “Why do we need any more witnesses?” he asked.
64 Ye haue heard the blasphemie: what thinke yee? And they all condemned him to be worthie of death. You have heard his blasphemy. What is your decision?” And they all condemned him as deserving death. “You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?” They all condemned him as worthy of death.
65 And some began to spit at him, and to couer his face, and to beate him with fists, and to say vnto him, Prophesie; the sergeants smote him with their roddes. And some began to spit on him and to cover his face and to strike him, saying to him, “Prophesy!” And the guards received him with blows. Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.
66 And as Peter was beneath in the hal, there came one of the maides of the hie Priest. And as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came, While Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came by.
67 And when shee sawe Peter warming him selfe, shee looked on him, and sayde, Thou wast also with Iesus of Nazareth. and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, “You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus.” When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked closely at him. “You also were with that Nazarene, Jesus,” she said.
68 But he denied it, saying, I knowe him not, neither wot I what thou saiest. Then he went out into the porche, and the cocke crewe. But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you mean.” And he went out into the gateway and the rooster crowed. But he denied it. “I don’t know or understand what you’re talking about,” he said, and went out into the entryway.
69 Then a maid sawe him againe, and bega to say to them that stood by, This is one of them. And the servant girl saw him and began again to say to the bystanders, “This man is one of them.” When the servant girl saw him there, she said again to those standing around, “This fellow is one of them.”
70 But hee denied it againe: and anon after, they that stoode by, sayde againe to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art of Galile, and thy speach is like. But again he denied it. And after a little while the bystanders again said to Peter, “Certainly you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.” Again he denied it. After a little while, those standing near said to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.”
71 And he began to curse, and sweare, saying, I knowe not this man of whom ye speake. But he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak.” He began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know this man you’re talking about.”
72 Then the seconde time the cocke crewe, and Peter remembred the woorde that Iesus had saide vnto him, Before the cocke crowe twise, thou shalt denie me thrise, and waying that with himselfe, he wept. And immediately the rooster crowed a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.” And he broke down and wept. Immediately the rooster crowed the second time. Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice you will disown me three times.” And he broke down and wept.
