< Luke 22 >
1 Now the feast of vnleauened bread drewe neere, which is called the Passeouer.
Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the passover, was at hand.
2 And the hie Priests and Scribes sought how they might kill him: for they feared the people.
And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
3 Then entred Satan into Iudas, who was called Iscariot, and was of the nomber of the twelue.
But Satan entered into Judas surnamed Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.
4 And he went his way, and communed with the hie Priestes and captaines, how he might betray him to them.
And he went away, and conferred with the chief priests and the captains how he might deliver him up to them.
5 So they were glad, and agreed to giue him money.
And they were glad, and agreed to give him money.
6 And he consented, and sought opportunitie to betraye him vnto them, when the people were away.
And he consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him up to them without tumult.
7 Then came the day of vnleauened bread, when the Passeouer must be sacrificed.
Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
8 And he sent Peter and Iohn, saying, Go and prepare vs the Passeouer, that we may eate it.
And he sent Peter and John, saying: Go, make ready the passover for us, that we may eat it.
9 And they saide to him, Where wilt thou, that we prepare it?
They said to him: Where dost thou wish that we make it ready?
10 Then he said vnto them, Beholde, when ye be entred into the citie, there shall a man meete you, bearing a pitcher of water: folowe him into the house that he entreth in,
And he said to them: Behold, as you go into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters;
11 And say vnto the good man of the house, The Master saith vnto thee, Where is the lodging where I shall eate my Passeouer with my disciples?
and say to the master of the house: The Teacher says to you, Where is the room in which I may eat the passover with my disciples?
12 Then he shall shewe you a great hie chamber trimmed: there make it ready.
And he will show you a large upper room furnished; there make ready.
13 So they went, and found as he had said vnto them, and made readie the Passeouer.
And they went, and found as he had said to them; and they made ready the passover.
14 And when the houre was come, hee sate downe, and the twelue Apostles with him.
And when the hour had come, he reclined at table, and the twelve apostles with him.
15 Then he saide vnto them, I haue earnestly desired to eate this Passeouer with you, before I suffer.
And he said to them: I have greatly desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer.
16 For I say vnto you, Hencefoorth I will not eate of it any more, vntill it bee fulfilled in the kingdome of God.
For I say to you, I will eat of it no more till it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
17 And hee tooke the cup, and gaue thankes, and said, Take this, and deuide it among you,
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said: Take this, and divide it among yourselves;
18 For I say vnto you, I will not drinke of the fruite of the vine, vntill the kingdome of God be come.
for I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine till the kingdom of God has come.
19 And he tooke bread, and when he had giuen thankes, he brake it, and gaue to them, saying, This is my body, which is giuen for you: doe this in the remembrance of me.
And he took bread, and gave thanks; and he broke, and gave it to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you: do this in remembrance of me.
20 Likewise also after supper he tooke the cup, saying, This cup is that newe Testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
In like manner also, the cup, after he had supped, saying: This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 Yet beholde, the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table.
But, behold, the hand of him that delivers me up is with me on the table.
22 And truely the Sonne of man goeth as it is appointed: but woe be to that man, by whom he is betrayed.
And the Son of man goes, as it is determined; but alas for that man by whom he is delivered up.
23 Then they began to enquire among themselues which of them it should be, that should do that.
And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it could be that was about to do this thing.
24 And there arose also a strife among them, which of them should seeme to be ye greatest.
And there had been also a contention among them, which of them was thought to be the greatest.
25 But hee saide vnto them, The Kings of the Gentiles reigne ouer them, and they that beare rule ouer them, are called bountifull.
And he said to them: The kings of the nations have dominion over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called benefactors.
26 But yee shall not be so: but let the greatest among you be as the least: and the chiefest as he that serueth.
But you shall not be so; but let the greatest among you be as the younger, and him that is chief, as he that serves.
27 For who is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serueth? Is not he that sitteth at table? And I am among you as he that serueth.
For which is greater, he that reclines at table, or he that serves? Is not he that reclines at table? But I am among you as one that serves.
28 And yee are they which haue continued with me in my tentations.
You are they that have continued with me in my trials;
29 Therefore I appoint vnto you a kingdome, as my Father hath appointed vnto me,
and I appoint to you a kingdom, as my Father has appointed to me,
30 That ye may eate, and drinke at my table in my kingdome, and sit on seates, and iudge the twelue tribes of Israel.
that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the Lord saide, Simon, Simon, beholde, Satan hath desired you, to winowe you as wheate.
And the Lord said: Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded you apostles for himself, that he may sift you as wheat.
32 But I haue prayed for thee, that thy faith faile not: therefore when thou art conuerted, strengthen thy brethren.
But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith fail not. And when you have turned to me again, strengthen your brethren.
33 And he said vnto him, Lord, I am ready to goe with thee into prison, and to death.
And he said to him: Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both to prison and to death.
34 But he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cocke shall not crowe this day, before thou hast thrise denied that thou knewest me.
He replied: I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day before you have three times denied that you know me.
35 And he saide vnto them, When I sent you without bagge, and scrip, and shooes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
And he said to them: When I sent you without purse and bag and sandals, did you need any thing? They replied: Nothing.
36 Then he said to them, But nowe he that hath a bagge, let him take it, and likewise a scrip: and hee that hath none, let him sell his coate, and buy a sworde.
Then he said to them: But now, he that has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag; and he that has no sword, let him sell his mantle and buy one.
37 For I say vnto you, That yet the same which is written, must be perfourmed in me, Euen with the wicked was he nombred: for doubtlesse those things which are written of me, haue an ende.
For I say to you, That even this which is written must be fulfilled in me: And he was numbered with transgressors. For the things concerning me have an end.
38 And they said, Lord, beholde, here are two swordes. And he said vnto them, It is ynough.
And they said: Lord, behold, here are two swords. He said to them: It is enough.
39 And he came out, and went (as he was wont) to the mount of Oliues: and his disciples also followed him.
And after he had gone out, he went, according to custom, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples followed him.
40 And when hee came to the place, hee said to them, Pray, lest ye enter into tentation.
And when he came to the place, he said to them: Pray, that you enter not into temptation.
41 And he was drawen aside from them about a stones cast, and kneeled downe, and prayed,
And he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and kneeled down, and prayed,
42 Saying, Father, if thou wilt, take away this cuppe from mee: neuerthelesse, not my will, but thine be done.
saying: Father, if thou art willing that this cup should pass from me―yet, not my will, but thine be done.
43 And there appeared an Angell vnto him from heauen, comforting him.
And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, to strengthen him.
44 But being in an agonie, hee prayed more earnestly: and his sweate was like drops of blood, trickling downe to the ground.
And he was in agony, and prayed more earnestly. And his sweat was like great drops of blood falling to the ground.
45 And he rose vp from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for heauinesse.
And he arose from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them asleep for sorrow.
46 And he said vnto them, Why sleepe ye? rise and pray, least ye enter into tentation.
And he said to them: Why do you sleep? Arise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.
47 And while he yet spake, beholde, a companie, and he that was called Iudas one of the twelue, went before them, and came neere vnto Iesus to kisse him.
And while he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and came near to Jesus to kiss him.
48 And Iesus saide vnto him, Iudas, betrayest thou the Sonne of man with a kisse?
But Jesus said to him: Judas, do you deliver up the Son of man with a kiss?
49 Now when they which were about him, saw what would follow, they said vnto him, Lord, shall we smite with sworde?
When those who were about him saw what would be done, they said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?
50 And one of them smote a seruant of the hie Priest, and strooke off his right eare.
And a certain one of them struck the servant of the chief priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 Then Iesus answered, and said, Suffer them thus farre: and he touched his eare, and healed him.
And Jesus answered and said: Let this matter proceed thus far. And he touched his ear and healed him.
52 Then Iesus said vnto the hie Priests, and captaines of the Temple, and the Elders which were come to him, Bee ye come out as vnto a theefe with swordes and staues?
And Jesus said to the chief priests, and the captains of the temple, and the elders that had come against him: Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber?
53 When I was dayly with you in the Temple, yee stretched not foorth the handes against mee: but this is your very houre, and the power of darkenesse.
While I was daily with you in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the authority of darkness.
54 Then tooke they him, and led him, and brought him to the hie Priestes house. And Peter followed afarre off.
And they took him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the chief priest. But Peter followed at a distance.
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the middes of the hall, and were set downe together, Peter also sate downe among them.
And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down in the midst of them.
56 And a certaine mayde behelde him as hee sate by the fire, and hauing well looked on him, said, This man was also with him.
And a certain maid-servant saw him sitting by the fire; and, looking intently at him, she said: This man also was with him.
57 But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
But he denied, saying: Woman, I know him not.
58 And after a little while, another man sawe him, and saide, Thou art also of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.
And after a little, another saw him, and said: You also are one of them. Peter replied: Man, I am not.
59 And about the space of an houre after, a certaine other affirmed, saying. Verely euen this man was with him: for he is also a Galilean.
And about one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man also was with him; for he is a Galilean.
60 And Peter saide, Man, I knowe not what thou sayest. And immediatly while hee yet spake, the cocke crewe.
But Peter said: Man, I know not what you say. And immediately, while he was speaking, the cock crew.
61 Then the Lord turned backe, and looked vpon Peter: and Peter remembred the worde of the Lord, how he had said vnto him, Before the cocke crowe, thou shalt denie me thrise.
And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times.
62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
And Peter went out and wept bitterly.
63 And the men that helde Iesus, mocked him, and strooke him.
And the men that had Jesus in custody mocked him, and smote him.
64 And when they had blindfolded him, they smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophecie who it is that smote thee.
And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying: Give a response; who is it that struck you?
65 And many other thinges blasphemously spake they against him.
And many other impious things they said to him.
66 And assoone as it was day, the Elders of the people, and the hie Priests and the Scribes came together, and led him into their councill,
And when it was day, the elders of the people, the chief priests also and scribes, met together, and led him up to the Sanhedrin, and said:
67 Saying, Art thou that Christ? tell vs. And he said vnto them, If I tell you, ye wil not beleeue it.
If you are the Christ, tell us. But he said to them: If I tell you, you will not believe;
68 And if also I aske you, you will not answere me, nor let me goe.
and if I also ask you a question, you will not answer me, nor let me go.
69 Hereafter shall the Sonne of man sit at the right hand of the power of God.
Henceforth the Son of man shall sit on the right hand of the power of God.
70 Then sayd they all, Art thou then ye Sonne of God? And he sayd to them, Ye say, that I am.
And they all said: You are, then, the Son of God? He said to them: You say that I am.
71 Then sayd they, What neede we any further witnes? for we our selues haue heard it of his owne mouth.
They replied: What further need have we of testimony? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
