| 39Going a little farther, he threw himself down with his face to the ground and prayed, "My Father, if possible, let this cup pass from me! Yet not what I will, but what you will." | 39And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. |
| 40Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, "So, couldn't you stay awake with me for one hour? | 40And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? |
| 41Stay awake and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak." | 41Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. |
| 42He went away a second time and prayed, "My Father, if this cup cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will must be done." | 42He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. |
| 43He came again and found them sleeping; they could not keep their eyes open. | 43And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy. |
| 44So leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same thing once more. | 44And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. |
| 45Then he came to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour is approaching, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. | 45Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. |

| 47While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people. | 47And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people. |
| 48(Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, "The one I kiss is the man. Arrest him!") | 48Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast. |
| 49Immediately he went up to Jesus and said, "Greetings, Rabbi," and kissed him. | 49And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him. |
| 50Jesus said to him, "Friend, do what you are here to do." Then they came and took hold of Jesus and arrested him. | 50And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him. |
| 51But one of those with Jesus grabbed his sword, drew it out, and struck the high priest's slave, cutting off his ear. | 51And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear. |
| 52Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back in its place! For all who take hold of the sword will die by the sword. | 52Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. |
| 53Or do you think that I cannot call on my Father, and that he would send me more than twelve legions of angels right now? | 53Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? |
| 54How then would the scriptures that say it must happen this way be fulfilled?" | 54But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? |
| 55At that moment Jesus said to the crowd, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw? Day after day I sat teaching in the temple courts, yet you did not arrest me. | 55In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me. |
| 56But this has happened so that the scriptures of the prophets would be fulfilled." Then all the disciples left him and fled. | 56But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled. |
| 57Now the ones who had arrested Jesus led him to Caiaphas, the high priest, in whose house the experts in the law and the elders had gathered. | 57And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. |
| 58But Peter was following him from a distance, all the way to the high priest's courtyard. After going in, he sat with the guards to see the outcome. | 58But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end. |
| 59The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were trying to find false testimony against Jesus so that they could put him to death. | 59Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; |
| 60But they did not find anything, though many false witnesses came forward. Finally two came forward | 60But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, |
| 61and declared, "This man said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.'" | 61And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. |
| 62So the high priest stood up and said to him, "Have you no answer? What is this that they are testifying against you?" | 62And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? |
| 63But Jesus was silent. The high priest said to him, "I charge you under oath by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God." | 63But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. |
| 64Jesus said to him, "You have said it yourself. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power and coming on the clouds of heaven." | 64Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. |
| 65Then the high priest tore his clothes and declared, "He has blasphemed! Why do we still need witnesses? Now you have heard the blasphemy! | 65Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy. |
| 66What is your verdict?" They answered, "He is guilty and deserves death." | 66What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death. |
| 67Then they spat in his face and struck him with their fists. And some slapped him, | 67Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands, |
| 68saying, "Prophesy for us, you Christ! Who hit you?" | 68Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee? |
| 69Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A slave girl came to him and said, "You also were with Jesus the Galilean." | 69Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. |
| 70But he denied it in front of them all: "I don't know what you're talking about!" | 70But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. |
| 71When he went out to the gateway, another slave girl saw him and said to the people there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene." | 71And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. |
| 72He denied it again with an oath, "I do not know the man!" | 72And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man. |
| 73After a little while, those standing there came up to Peter and said, "You really are one of them too--even your accent gives you away!" | 73And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee. |
| 74At that he began to curse, and he swore with an oath, "I do not know the man!" At that moment a rooster crowed. | 74Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew. |
| 75Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said: "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." And he went outside and wept bitterly. | 75And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly. |
