< Luke 22 >
1 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew near, which is called the Passover.
And the feast of the unleavened food was coming nigh, that is called Passover,
2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take him up, for they were afraid of the people.
3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
And the Adversary entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve,
4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him to them.
and he, having gone away, spake with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver him up to them,
5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,
6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him to them in the absence of the multitude.
and he agreed, and was seeking a favourable season to deliver him up to them without tumult.
7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.
and he sent Peter and John, saying, 'Having gone on, prepare to us the passover, that we may eat;'
9 And they said to him, Where will you that we prepare?
and they said to him, 'Where wilt thou that we might prepare?'
10 And he said to them, Behold, when you are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he enters in.
And he said to them, 'Lo, in your entering into the city, there shall meet you a man, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him to the house where he doth go in,
11 And you shall say to the manager of the house, The Master says to you, Where is the guest room, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where the passover with my disciples I may eat?
12 And he shall show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
and he shall show you a large upper room furnished, there make ready;'
13 And they went, and found as he had said to them: and they made ready the passover.
and they, having gone away, found as he hath said to them, and they made ready the passover.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
And when the hour come, he reclined (at meat), and the twelve apostles with him,
15 And he said to them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
and he said unto them, 'With desire I did desire to eat this passover with you before my suffering,
16 For I say to you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
for I say to you, that no more may I eat of it till it may be fulfilled in the reign of God.'
17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:
And having taken a cup, having given thanks, he said, 'Take this and divide to yourselves,
18 For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine till the reign of God may come.'
19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
And having taken bread, having given thanks, he brake and gave to them, saying, 'This is my body, that for you is being given, this do ye — to remembrance of me.'
20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
In like manner, also, the cup after the supping, saying, 'This cup [is] the new covenant in my blood, that for you is being poured forth.
21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrays me is with me on the table.
'But, lo, the hand of him delivering me up [is] with me on the table,
22 And truly the Son of man goes, as it was determined: but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!
and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but woe to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'
23 And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
And they began to reason among themselves, who then of them it may be, who is about to do this thing.
24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
And there happened also a strife among them — who of them is accounted to be greater.
25 And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority on them are called benefactors.
And he said to them, 'The kings of the nations do exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority upon them are called benefactors;
26 But you shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that does serve.
but ye [are] not so, but he who is greater among you — let him be as the younger; and he who is leading, as he who is ministering;
27 For whether is greater, he that sits at meat, or he that serves? is not he that sits at meat? but I am among you as he that serves.
for who is greater? he who is reclining (at meat), or he who is ministering? is it not he who is reclining (at meat)? and I — I am in your midst as he who is ministering.
28 You are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
'And ye — ye are those who have remained with me in my temptations,
29 And I appoint to you a kingdom, as my Father has appointed to me;
and I appoint to you, as my Father did appoint to me, a kingdom,
30 That you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
that ye may eat and may drink at my table, in my kingdom, and may sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.'
31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
And the Lord said, 'Simon, Simon, lo, the Adversary did ask you for himself to sift as the wheat,
32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith fail not: and when you are converted, strengthen your brothers.
and I besought for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and thou, when thou didst turn, strengthen thy brethren.'
33 And he said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with you, both into prison, and to death.
And he said to him, 'Sir, with thee I am ready both to prison and to death to go;'
34 And he said, I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that you shall thrice deny that you know me.
and he said, 'I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'
35 And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, and money, and shoes, lacked you any thing? And they said, Nothing.
And he said to them, 'When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and sandals, did ye lack anything?' and they said, 'Nothing.'
36 Then said he to them, But now, he that has a purse, let him take it, and likewise his money: and he that has no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
Then said he to them, 'But, now, he who is having a bag, let him take [it] up, and in like manner also a scrip; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,
37 For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.
for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'
38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough.
And they said, 'Sir, lo, here [are] two swords;' and he said to them, 'It is sufficient.'
39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
And having gone forth, he went on, according to custom, to the mount of the Olives, and his disciples also followed him,
40 And when he was at the place, he said to them, Pray that you enter not into temptation.
and having come to the place, he said to them, 'Pray ye not to enter into temptation.'
41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,
And he was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone's cast, and having fallen on the knees he was praying,
42 Saying, Father, if you be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but yours, be done.
saying, 'Father, if Thou be counselling to make this cup pass from me —; but, not my will, but Thine be done.' —
43 And there appeared an angel to him from heaven, strengthening him.
And there appeared to him a messenger from heaven strengthening him;
44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
and having been in agony, he was more earnestly praying, and his sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling upon the ground.
45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,
And having risen up from the prayer, having come unto the disciples, he found them sleeping from the sorrow,
46 And said to them, Why sleep you? rise and pray, lest you enter into temptation.
and he said to them, 'Why do ye sleep? having risen, pray that ye may not enter into temptation.'
47 And while he yet spoke, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Jesus to kiss him.
And while he is speaking, lo, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them, and he came nigh to Jesus to kiss him,
48 But Jesus said to him, Judas, betray you the Son of man with a kiss?
and Jesus said to him, 'Judas, with a kiss the Son of Man dost thou deliver up?'
49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said to him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
And those about him, having seen what was about to be, said to him, 'Sir, shall we smite with a sword?'
50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,
51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer you thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
and Jesus answering said, 'Suffer ye thus far,' and having touched his ear, he healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be you come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?
And Jesus said to those having come upon him — chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders — 'As upon a robber have ye come forth, with swords and sticks?
53 When I was daily with you in the temple, you stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
while daily I was with you in the temple, ye did stretch forth no hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.'
54 Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest’s house. And Peter followed afar off.
And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,
56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked on him, and said, This man was also with him.
and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, 'And this one was with him!'
57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
and he disowned him, saying, 'Woman, I have not known him.'
58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, You are also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
And after a little, another having seen him, said, 'And thou art of them!' and Peter said, 'Man, I am not.'
59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.
And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, 'Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'
60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what you say. And immediately, while he yet spoke, the cock crew.
and Peter said, 'Man, I have not known what thou sayest;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.
61 And the Lord turned, and looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, Before the cock crow, you shall deny me thrice.
And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him — 'Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;'
62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.
63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.
And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking him, beating [him];
64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote you?
and having blindfolded him, they were striking him on the face, and were questioning him, saying, 'Prophesy who he is who smote thee?'
65 And many other things blasphemously spoke they against him.
and many other things, speaking evilly, they spake in regard to him.
66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,
And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led him up to their own sanhedrim,
67 Are you the Christ? tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe:
saying, 'If thou be the Christ, tell us.' And he said to them, 'If I may tell you, ye will not believe;
68 And if I also ask you, you will not answer me, nor let me go.
and if I also question [you], ye will not answer me or send me away;
69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.
henceforth, there shall be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.'
70 Then said they all, Are you then the Son of God? And he said to them, You say that I am.
And they all said, 'Thou, then, art the Son of God?' and he said unto them, 'Ye say [it], because I am;'
71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
and they said, 'What need yet have we of testimony? for we ourselves did hear [it] from his mouth.'
