[Is] not he that is at table? But I am in the midst of you as the one that serves. 22:28 But ye are they who have persevered with me in my temptations. 22:29 And I appoint unto you, as my Father has appointed unto me, a kingdom, 22:30 that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 22:31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded to have you, to sift [you] as wheat; 22:32 but I have besought for thee that thy faith fail not; and thou, when once thou hast been restored, confirm thy brethren. 22:33 And he said to him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death. 22:34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, [the] cock shall not crow to-day before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me. 22:35 And he said to them, When I sent you without purse and scrip and sandals, did ye lack anything? And they said, Nothing. 22:36 He said therefore to them, But now he that has a purse let him take [it], in like manner also a scrip, and he that has none let him sell his garment and buy a sword; 22:37 for I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned with [the] lawless: for also the things concerning me have an end. 22:38 And they said, Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough. 22:39 And going forth he went according to his custom to the mount of Olives, and the disciples also followed him. 22:40 And when he was at the place he said to them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 22:41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone`s throw, and having knelt down he prayed, 22:42 saying, Father, if thou wilt remove this cup from me: -- but then, not my will, but thine be done. 22:43 And an angel appeared to him from heaven strengthening him. 22:44 And being in conflict he prayed more intently. And his sweat became as great drops of blood, falling down upon the earth. 22:45 And rising up from his prayer, coming to the disciples, he found them sleeping from grief. 22:46 And he said to them, Why sleep ye? rise up and pray that ye enter not into temptation. 22:47 As he was yet speaking, behold, a crowd, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went on before them, and drew near to Jesus to kiss him. 22:48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, deliverest thou up the Son of man with a kiss? 22:49 And they who were around him, seeing what was going to follow, said [to him], Lord, shall we smite with [the] sword? 22:50 And a certain one from among them smote the bondman of the high priest and took off his right ear. 22:51 And Jesus answering said, Suffer thus far; and having touched his ear, he healed him. 22:52 And Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders, who were come against him, Have ye come out as against a robber with swords and sticks? 22:53 When I was day by day with you in the temple ye did not stretch out your hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of darkness. 22:54 And having laid hold on him, they led him [away], and they led [him] into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off. 22:55 And they having lit a fire in the midst of the court and sat down together, Peter sat among them. 22:56 And a certain maid, having seen him sitting by the light, and having fixed her eyes upon him, said, And this [man] was with him. 22:57 But he denied [him], saying, Woman, I do not know him. 22:58 And after a short time another seeing him said, And thou art of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not. 22:59 And after the lapse of about one hour another stoutly maintained it, saying, In truth this [man] also was with him, for also he is a Galilaean. 22:60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, [the] cock crew. 22:61 And the Lord, turning round, looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, Before [the] cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. 22:62 And Peter, going forth without, wept bitterly. 22:63 And the men who held him mocked him, beating [him]; 22:64 and covering him up, asked him saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee? 22:65 And they said many other injurious things to him. 22:66 And when it was day, the elderhood of the people, both [the] chief priests and scribes, were gathered together, and led him into their council, saying, 22:67 If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not at all believe; 22:68 and if I should ask [you], ye would not answer me at all, nor let me go; 22:69 but henceforth shall the Son of man be sitting on the right hand of the power of God. 22:70 And they all said, Thou then art the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say that I am. 22:71 And they said, What need have we any more of witness, for we have heard ourselves out of his mouth?
