21 But behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.
Nevertheless, lo! the hand of him who is delivering me up, is with me upon the table.

But, ye, not so! On the contrary—the greater among you, Let him become as, the younger, and, he that governeth, as, he that ministereth,
27 For which is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth.

36 And he said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet; and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
And he said unto them—But, now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, in like manner also, a satchel; and, he that hath nothing, let him sell his mantle, and buy a sword!
37 For I say unto you, that this which is written must be fulfilled in me, And he was reckoned with transgressors: for that which concerneth me hath fulfilment.

and, coming to be in an agony, more intensely, was he praying; and his perspiration became, as if great drops of blood, falling upon the ground.
45 And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,
And, arising from prayer, he came unto his disciples, and found them falling asleep by reason of their grief;
46 and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

And, they having kindled up a fire in the midst of the court, and taken seats together, Peter was for sitting among them.
56 And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light [of the fire], and looking stedfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him.
But, a certain maid-servant, seeing him seating himself towards the light, and looking steadfastly at him, said—This one also, was, with him.
57 But he denied, saying, Woman, I know him not.
But, he, denied, saying—I know him not, woman!
58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art [one] of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.
And, after a little, another, beholding him, said—Thou also, art, from among them. But, Peter, said—Man! I am not.
59 And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilæan.
And, about one hour having passed, a certain other, began stoutly to insist, saying—Of a truth, this one also, was with him; for indeed he is, a Galilaean.
60 But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
But Peter said—Man! I know not what thou art saying! And, instantly while yet he was speaking, a cock crew.

[And, going forth outside, he wept bitterly.]
63 And the men that held [Jesus] mocked him, and beat him.
And, the men who held him bound, kept mocking him, with blows;
64 And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee?

65 And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.
and, many other things, with profane speech, were they saying unto him.

And, when it became day, the Eldership of the people was gathered together—both High-priests and Scribes, —and they led him away into their high-council, saying—If, thou, art the Christ, tell us!
67 If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
But he said unto them—If I should tell, you, in nowise would ye believe,
68 and if I ask [you], ye will not answer.
And, if I should put questions, in nowise would ye answer;
69 But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.
But, henceforth, shall the Son of Man be seated on the right hand of the power of God.
70 And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
And they all said—Thou, then, art the Son of God? And, he, unto them said—Ye, say [it], —because, I, am.
71 And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
And, they, said—What, further, need have we, of witness? We ourselves, have heard it from his mouth.
