| 1 | It was now two days before the Passover and the feast of Unleavened Bread, and the High Priests and Scribes were bent on finding how to seize Him by stratagem 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 said, "Not on the Festival-day, for fear there should be a riot 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 | Now when He was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the Leper, while He was at table, there came a woman with a jar of pure, sweet-scented ointment very costly: she broke the jar and poured the ointment over 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 | But there were some who said indignantly among themselves, "Why has the ointment been thus wasted? | 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 that ointment might have been sold for fifteen pounds or more, and the money have been given to the poor." And they were exceedingly angry with 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 Jesus said, "Leave her alone: why are you troubling her? She has done a most gracious act towards 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 you always have the poor among you, and whenever you choose you can do acts of kindness to them; but me you have not always. | 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 | What she could she did: she has perfumed my body in preparation for my burial. | 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 | And I solemnly tell you that wherever in the whole world the Good News shall be proclaimed, this which she has done shall also be told 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 | But Judas Iscariot, already mentioned as one of the Twelve, went to the High Priests to betray Jesus to 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 | They gladly listened to his proposal, and promised to give him a sum of money. So he looked out for an opportunity to betray 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 | On the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread--the day for killing the Passover lamb--His disciples asked Him, "Where shall we go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?" | 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 | So He sent two of His disciples with instructions, saying, "Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow 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 whatever house he enters, tell the master of the house, 'The Rabbi asks, Where is my room where I can eat the Passover 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 | Then he will himself show you a large room upstairs, ready furnished: there make preparation for us." | 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 the disciples went out and came to the city, and found everything just as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready. | 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 | When it was evening, He came with the Twelve. | And when it was evening, he came with the twelve. | When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. | |
| 18 | And while they were at table Jesus said, "I solemnly tell you that one of you will betray me--one who is eating 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 | They were filled with sorrow, and began asking Him, one by one, "Not I, is it?" | 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 | "It is one of the Twelve," He replied; "he who is dipping his fingers in the dish with me. | 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 | For the Son of Man is going His way as it is written about Him; but alas for the man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man, had he never been born." | 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 | Also during the meal He took a Passover biscuit, blessed it, and broke it. He then gave it to them, saying, "Take this, it is my body." | 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 | Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and handed it to them, and they all of them drank from 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 | "This is my blood," He said, "which is to be poured out on behalf of many--the blood which makes the Covenant sure. | 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 | I solemnly tell you that never again will I taste the produce of the vine till I shall drink the new wine in the Kingdom 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 | After singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. | 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 said Jesus to them, "All of you are about to stumble and fall, for it is written, 'I will strike down the Shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered in all directions.' | 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 I have risen to life again I will go before you into Galilee." | 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 | "All may stumble and fall," said Peter, "yet I never will." | Peter said to him, “Even though they all fall away, I will not.” | Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.” | |
| 30 | "I solemnly tell you," replied Jesus, "that to-day--this night--before the cock crows twice, you yourself will three times disown me." | 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 | "Even if I must die with you," declared Peter again and again, "I will never disown you." In like manner protested also all the disciples. | 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 | So they came to a place called Gethsemane. There He said to His disciples, "Sit down here till I have prayed." | 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 | Then He took with Him Peter and James and John, and began to be full of terror and distress, | 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 He said to them, "My heart is oppressed with anguish to the very point of death: wait here and keep awake." | 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 | Going forward a short distance He threw Himself upon His face and prayed repeatedly that, if it was possible, He might be spared that time of agony; | 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 said, "Abba! my Father! all things are possible for Thee: take this cup of suffering away from me: and yet not what I desire, but what Thou desirest." | 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 He came and found them asleep, and He said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Had you not strength to keep awake a single hour? | 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 | Be wakeful, all of you, and keep on praying, that you may not come into temptation: the spirit is right willing, but the body is frail." | 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 | He again went away and prayed, using the very same words. | And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. | Once more he went away and prayed the same thing. | |
| 40 | When He returned He again found them asleep, for they were very tired; and they knew not how to answer 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 | A third time He came, and then He said, "Sleep on and rest. Enough! the hour has come. Even now they are betraying the Son of Man into the hands of sinful men. | 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 | Rouse yourselves, let us be going: my betrayer is close at hand." | Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand.” | Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!” | |
| 43 | Immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, came and with him a crowd of men armed with swords and cudgels, sent by the High 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 | Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. "The one I kiss," he said, "is the man: lay hold of him, and take him safely away." | 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 | So he came, and going straight to Jesus he said, "Rabbi!" and kissed Him with seeming affection; | 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 | whereupon they laid hands on Him and held Him firmly. | And they laid hands on him and seized him. | The men seized Jesus and arrested him. | |
| 47 | But one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck a blow at the High Priest's servant, cutting off his ear. | 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 | "Have you come out," said Jesus, "with swords and cudgels to arrest me, as if you had to fight with a robber? | 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 | Day after day I used to be among you in the Temple teaching, and you never seized me. But this is happening in order that the Scriptures may 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 His friends all forsook Him and fled. | And they all left him and fled. | Then everyone deserted him and fled. | |
| 51 | One youth indeed did follow Him, wearing only a linen cloth round his bare body. Of him they laid hold, | 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 the linen cloth in their hands and fled without it. | but he left the linen cloth and ran away naked. | he fled naked, leaving his garment behind. | |
| 53 | So they led Jesus away to the High Priest, and with him there assembled all the High Priests, Elders, and 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 | Peter followed Jesus at a distance, as far as the outer court of the High Priest's palace. But there he remained sitting among the officers, and warming himself by 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 | Meanwhile the High Priests and the entire Sanhedrin were endeavouring to get evidence against Jesus in order to put Him to death, but could find 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 though many gave false testimony against Him, their statements did not tally. | 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 some came forward as witnesses and falsely declared, | And some stood up and bore false witness against him, saying, | Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him: | |
| 58 | "We have heard him say, 'I will pull down this Sanctuary built by human hands, and three days afterwards I will erect another built 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 not even in this shape was their testimony consistent. | Yet even about this their testimony did not agree. | Yet even then their testimony did not agree. | |
| 60 | At last the High Priest stood up, and advancing into the midst of them all, asked Jesus, "Have you no answer to make? What is the meaning of all this that these witnesses allege against you?" | 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 He remained silent, and gave no reply. A second time the High Priest questioned Him. "Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?" he said. | 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 | "I am," replied Jesus, "and you and others will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the divine Power, and coming amid the clouds of the sky." | 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 | Rending his garments the High Priest exclaimed, "What need have we of witnesses after that? | 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 | You all heard his impious words. What is your judgement?" Then with one voice they condemned Him as deserving 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 | Thereupon some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, while striking Him with their fists and crying, "Prove that you are a prophet." The officers too struck Him with open hands as they took Him in charge. | 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 | Now while Peter was below in the quadrangle, one of the High Priest's maidservants came, | 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 seeing Peter warming himself she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus, the Nazarene." | 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, and said, "I don't know--I don't understand--What do you mean?" And then he went out into the outer court. Just then a cock crowed. | 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 | Again the maidservant saw him, and again began to say to the people standing by, "He 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 | A second time he repeatedly denied it. Soon afterwards the bystanders again accused Peter, saying, "You are surely one of them, for you too are a Galilaean." | 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 | But he broke out into curses and oaths, declaring, "I know nothing of the man you are talking about." | 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 | No sooner had he spoken than a cock crowed for the second time, and Peter recollected the words of Jesus, "Before the cock crows twice, you will three times disown me." And as he thought of it, he wept aloud. | 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. | |
