Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

32

And they came to a farm called Gethsemani. And he saith to his disciples: Sit you here, while I pray.

33

And he taketh Peter and James and John with him: and he began to fear and to be heavy.

34

And he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death. Stay you here and watch.

35

And when he was gone forward a little, he fell flat on the ground: and he prayed that, if it might be, the hour might pass from him.

36

And he saith: Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee: remove this chalice from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.

37

And he cometh and findeth them sleeping. And he saith to Peter: Simon, sleepest thou? Couldst thou not watch one hour?

38

Watch ye: and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

39

And going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.

40

And when he returned, he found them again asleep (for their eyes were heavy): and they knew not what to answer him.

41

And he cometh the third time and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest. It is enough. The hour is come: behold the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42

Rise up: let us go. Behold, he that will betray me is at hand.
