26:1 When
Jesus
had
finished
all
these
sayings,
he
said
to
his
disciples,
26:2 "You
know
that
after
two
days
the
Passover
is
coming,
and
the
Son
of
Man
will
be
delivered
up
to
be
crucified."
26:3 Then
the
chief
priests
and
the
elders
of
the
people
gathered
in
the
palace
of
the
high
priest,
whose
name
was
Caiaphas,
26:4 and
plotted
together
in
order
to
arrest
Jesus
by
stealth
and
kill
him.
26:5 But
they
said,
"Not
during
the
feast,
lest
there
be
an
uproar
among
the
people."
26:6 Now
when
Jesus
was
at
Bethany
in
the
house
of
Simon
the
leper,
26:7 a
woman
came
up
to
him
with
an
alabaster
flask
of
very
expensive
ointment,
and
she
poured
it
on
his
head
as
he
reclined
at
table.
26:8 And
when
the
disciples
saw
it,
they
were
indignant,
saying,
"Why
this
waste
26:9 For
this
could
have
been
sold
for
a
large
sum
and
given
to
the
poor."
26:10 But
Jesus,
aware
of
this,
said
to
them,
"Why
do
you
trouble
the
woman
For
she
has
done
a
beautiful
thing
to
me.
26:11 For
you
always
have
the
poor
with
you,
but
you
will
not
always
have
me.
26:12 In
pouring
this
ointment
on
my
body,
she
has
done
it
to
prepare
me
for
burial.
26:13 Truly,
I
say
to
you,
wherever
this
gospel
is
proclaimed
in
the
whole
world,
what
she
has
done
will
also
be
told
in
memory
of
her."
26:14 Then
one
of
the
twelve,
whose
name
was
Judas
Iscariot,
went
to
the
chief
priests
26:15 and
said,
"What
will
you
give
me
if
I
deliver
him
over
to
you"
And
they
paid
him
thirty
pieces
of
silver.
26:16 And
from
that
moment
he
sought
an
opportunity
to
betray
him.
26:17 Now
on
the
first
day
of
Unleavened
Bread
the
disciples
came
to
Jesus,
saying,
"Where
will
you
have
us
prepare
for
you
to
eat
the
Passover"
26:18 He
said,
"Go
into
the
city
to
a
certain
man
and
say
to
him,
'The
Teacher
says,
My
time
is
at
hand.
I
will
keep
the
Passover
at
your
house
with
my
disciples.'"
26:19 And
the
disciples
did
as
Jesus
had
directed
them,
and
they
prepared
the
Passover.
26:20 When
it
was
evening,
he
reclined
at
table
with
the
twelve.
26:21 And
as
they
were
eating,
he
said,
"Truly,
I
say
to
you,
one
of
you
will
betray
me."
26:22 And
they
were
very
sorrowful
and
began
to
say
to
him
one
after
another,
"Is
it
I,
Lord"
26:23 He
answered,
"He
who
has
dipped
his
hand
in
the
dish
with
me
will
betray
me.
26:24 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."
26:25 Judas,
who
would
betray
him,
answered,
"Is
it
I,
Rabbi"
He
said
to
him,
"You
have
said
so."
26:26 Now
as
they
were
eating,
Jesus
took
bread,
and
after
blessing
it
broke
it
and
gave
it
to
the
disciples,
and
said,
"Take,
eat;
this
is
my
body."
26:27 And
he
took
a
cup,
and
when
he
had
given
thanks
he
gave
it
to
them,
saying,
"Drink
of
it,
all
of
you,
26:28 for
this
is
my
blood
of
the
covenant,
which
is
poured
out
for
many
for
the
forgiveness
of
sins.
26:29 I
tell
you
I
will
not
drink
again
of
this
fruit
of
the
vine
until
that
day
when
I
drink
it
new
with
you
in
my
Father's
kingdom."
26:30 And
when
they
had
sung
a
hymn,
they
went
out
to
the
Mount
of
Olives.
26:31 Then
Jesus
said
to
them,
"You
will
all
fall
away
because
of
me
this
night.
For
it
is
written,
'I
will
strike
the
shepherd,
and
the
sheep
of
the
flock
will
be
scattered.'
26:32 But
after
I
am
raised
up,
I
will
go
before
you
to
Galilee."
26:33 Peter
answered
him,
"Though
they
all
fall
away
because
of
you,
I
will
never
fall
away."
26:34 Jesus
said
to
him,
"Truly,
I
tell
you,
this
very
night,
before
the
rooster
crows,
you
will
deny
me
three
times."
26:35 Peter
said
to
him,
"Even
if
I
must
die
with
you,
I
will
not
deny
you!"
And
all
the
disciples
said
the
same.
26:36 Then
Jesus
went
with
them
to
a
place
called
Gethsemane,
and
he
said
to
his
disciples,
"Sit
here,
while
I
go
over
there
and
pray."
26:37 And
taking
with
him
Peter
and
the
two
sons
of
Zebedee,
he
began
to
be
sorrowful
and
troubled.
26:38 Then
he
said
to
them,
"My
soul
is
very
sorrowful,
even
to
death;
remain
here,
and
watch
with
me."
26:39 And
going
a
little
farther
he
fell
on
his
face
and
prayed,
saying,
"My
Father,
if
it
be
possible,
let
this
cup
pass
from
me;
nevertheless,
not
as
I
will,
but
as
you
will."
26:40 And
he
came
to
the
disciples
and
found
them
sleeping.
And
he
said
to
Peter,
"So,
could
you
not
watch
with
me
one
hour
26:41 Watch
and
pray
that
you
may
not
enter
into
temptation.
The
spirit
indeed
is
willing,
but
the
flesh
is
weak."
26:42 Again,
for
the
second
time,
he
went
away
and
prayed,
"My
Father,
if
this
cannot
pass
unless
I
drink
it,
your
will
be
done."
26:43 And
again
he
came
and
found
them
sleeping,
for
their
eyes
were
heavy.
26:44 So,
leaving
them
again,
he
went
away
and
prayed
for
the
third
time,
saying
the
same
words
again.
26:45 Then
he
came
to
the
disciples
and
said
to
them,
"Sleep
and
take
your
rest
later
on.
See,
the
hour
is
at
hand,
and
the
Son
of
Man
is
betrayed
into
the
hands
of
sinners.
26:46 Rise,
let
us
be
going;
see,
my
betrayer
is
at
hand."
26:47 While
he
was
still
speaking,
Judas
came,
one
of
the
twelve,
and
with
him
a
great
crowd
with
swords
and
clubs,
from
the
chief
priests
and
the
elders
of
the
people.
26:48 Now
the
betrayer
had
given
them
a
sign,
saying,
"The
one
I
will
kiss
is
the
man;
seize
him."
26:49 And
he
came
up
to
Jesus
at
once
and
said,
"Greetings,
Rabbi!"
And
he
kissed
him.
26:50 Jesus
said
to
him,
"Friend,
do
what
you
came
to
do."
Then
they
came
up
and
laid
hands
on
Jesus
and
seized
him.
26:51 And
behold,
one
of
those
who
were
with
Jesus
stretched
out
his
hand
and
drew
his
sword
and
struck
the
servant
of
the
high
priest
and
cut
off
his
ear.
26:52 Then
Jesus
said
to
him,
"Put
your
sword
back
into
its
place.
For
all
who
take
the
sword
will
perish
by
the
sword.
26:53 Do
you
think
that
I
cannot
appeal
to
my
Father,
and
he
will
at
once
send
me
more
than
twelve
legions
of
angels
26:54 But
how
then
should
the
Scriptures
be
fulfilled,
that
it
must
be
so"
26:55 At
that
hour
Jesus
said
to
the
crowds,
"Have
you
come
out
as
against
a
robber,
with
swords
and
clubs
to
capture
me
Day
after
day
I
sat
in
the
temple
teaching,
and
you
did
not
seize
me.
26:56 But
all
this
has
taken
place
that
the
Scriptures
of
the
prophets
might
be
fulfilled."
Then
all
the
disciples
left
him
and
fled.
26:57 Then
those
who
had
seized
Jesus
led
him
to
Caiaphas
the
high
priest,
where
the
scribes
and
the
elders
had
gathered.
26:58 And
Peter
was
following
him
at
a
distance,
as
far
as
the
courtyard
of
the
high
priest,
and
going
inside
he
sat
with
the
guards
to
see
the
end.
26:59 Now
the
chief
priests
and
the
whole
Council
were
seeking
false
testimony
against
Jesus
that
they
might
put
him
to
death,
26:60 but
they
found
none,
though
many
false
witnesses
came
forward.
At
last
two
came
forward
26:61 and
said,
"This
man
said,
'I
am
able
to
destroy
the
temple
of
God,
and
to
rebuild
it
in
three
days.'"
26:62 And
the
high
priest
stood
up
and
said,
"Have
you
no
answer
to
make
What
is
it
that
these
men
testify
against
you"
26:63 But
Jesus
remained
silent.
And
the
high
priest
said
to
him,
"I
adjure
you
by
the
living
God,
tell
us
if
you
are
the
Christ,
the
Son
of
God."
26:64 Jesus
said
to
him,
"You
have
said
so.
But
I
tell
you,
from
now
on
you
will
see
the
Son
of
Man
seated
at
the
right
hand
of
Power
and
coming
on
the
clouds
of
heaven."
26:65 Then
the
high
priest
tore
his
robes
and
said,
"He
has
uttered
blasphemy.
What
further
witnesses
do
we
need
You
have
now
heard
his
blasphemy.
26:66 What
is
your
judgment"
They
answered,
"He
deserves
death."
26:67 Then
they
spit
in
his
face
and
struck
him.
And
some
slapped
him,
26:68 saying,
"Prophesy
to
us,
you
Christ!
Who
is
it
that
struck
you"
26:69 Now
Peter
was
sitting
outside
in
the
courtyard.
And
a
servant
girl
came
up
to
him
and
said,
"You
also
were
with
Jesus
the
Galilean."
26:70 But
he
denied
it
before
them
all,
saying,
"I
do
not
know
what
you
mean."
26:71 And
when
he
went
out
to
the
entrance,
another
servant
girl
saw
him,
and
she
said
to
the
bystanders,
"This
man
was
with
Jesus
of
Nazareth."
26:72 And
again
he
denied
it
with
an
oath:
"I
do
not
know
the
man."
26:73 After
a
little
while
the
bystanders
came
up
and
said
to
Peter,
"Certainly
you
too
are
one
of
them,
for
your
accent
betrays
you."
26:74 Then
he
began
to
invoke
a
curse
on
himself
and
to
swear,
"I
do
not
know
the
man."
And
immediately
the
rooster
crowed.
26:75 And
Peter
remembered
the
saying
of
Jesus,
"Before
the
rooster
crows,
you
will
deny
me
three
times."
And
he
went
out
and
wept
bitterly.
