13 and they, having gone away, found as He has said to them, and they made the Passover ready.

22 and, indeed, the Son of Man goes according to what has been determined; but woe to that man through whom He is being delivered up.”

23 And they began to reason among themselves who then of them it may be who is about to do this thing.

24 And there happened also a strife among them—who of them is accounted to be greater.

26 but you [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;
But not so with you. Rather, the one who is greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.
27 for who is greater? He who is reclining, or he who is ministering? Is it not he who is reclining? And I am in your midst as He who is ministering.
For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.

“But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.
29 and I appoint to you a kingdom, as My Father appointed to Me,

34 and He said, “I say to you, Peter, a rooster will not crow today, before you may disown knowing Me three times.”
He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”
35 And He said to them, “When I sent you without bag, and leather pouch, and sandals, did you lack anything?” And they said, “Nothing.”
He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”
36 Then He said to them, “But now, he who is having a bag, let him take [it] up, and in like manner also a leather pouch; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,
Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
37 for I say to you that this which has been written is necessary to be accomplished in Me: And He was reckoned with lawless ones; for also the things concerning Me have an end.”
For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”
38 And they said, “Lord, behold, here [are] two swords”; and He said to them, “It is sufficient.”

57 And he disowned Him, saying, “Woman, I have not known Him.”

58 And after a while, another having seen him, said, “And you are of them!” And Peter said, “Man, I am not.”
After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

60 and Peter said, “Man, I have not known what you say”; and immediately, while he is speaking, a rooster crowed.
But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
61 And the LORD, having turned, looked on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the LORD, how He said to him, “Before a rooster will crow, you may disown Me three times”;
The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”

“If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,
68 and if I also question [you], you will not answer Me or send Me away;
and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.
69 from now on, there will be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.”

They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”
71 and they said, “What need do we have yet of testimony? For we ourselves heard [it] from His mouth.”
