Mark 14:32-42 ▼

32 At length they came to a place call'd Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, stay here, whilst I shall be at prayer.

33 but he took with him Peter, James, and John, then he began to be in a great consternation and anguish of mind, and he said to them; my soul is exceeding sorrowful,

34 even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.

35 then advancing a little further, he fell on the ground, and prayed, that this anxiety might pass from him.

36 saying, father, all things are possible to thee, take away this cup from me: nevertheless, not my will, but thine be done.

37 Then he return'd, and having found them sleeping, he said to Peter, Simon, are you asleep? could you not watch one hour?

38 watch and pray, that you may not yield to temptation: the mind indeed is vigorous, but the body is weak.

39 Again he retired, and prayed, uttering the same words.

40 then he return'd and found them still sleeping, for their eyes were heavy, and they did not know how to give an answer.

41 after that he came a third time, and said to them, sleep on now and take your rest. 'tis done, the time is come, and the son of man is to be betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42 rise, let us be going: see, the traitor is just upon us.
