Luke 22
1 And the Celebration of the Unleavened [Bread] was coming near, that is called Passover,
Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the passover.
2 and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take Him up, for they were afraid of the people.
And the chief priests and scribes were consulting how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.
3 And Satan entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the Twelve,
Then entred Satan into Judas who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve.
4 and he, having gone away, spoke with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver Him up to them,
And he went and conferred with the chief priests and the captains, how he might betray Him unto them.
5 and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,
And they were glad and agreed to give him money:
6 and he agreed, and was seeking a favorable season to deliver Him up to them without tumult.
and he accepted the terms, and sought an opportunity to betray Him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
7 And the day of the Unleavened [Bread] came, in which it was necessary [for] the Passover to be sacrificed,
The day of unleavened bread being come, on which the paschal-lamb was to be slain,
8 and He sent Peter and John, saying, “Having gone on, prepare to us the Passover, that we may eat”;
Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat of it.
9 and they said to Him, “Where do You will that we might prepare?”
And they said unto Him, Where wouldst thou have us prepare it?
10 And He said to them, “Behold, in your entering into the city, a man will meet you there, carrying a pitcher of water, follow him into the house where he goes in,
And He said unto them, Behold, when ye are come into the city, there shall meet you a man, carrying a pitcher of water, follow him into the house where he entreth:
11 and you will say to the master of the house, The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest-chamber where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?
and say to the master of the house, Our Master inquireth by us, Where is the room, in which I may eat the passover with my disciples?
12 And he will show you a large upper room furnished, make ready there”;
And he will shew you a large upper room set out; there make it ready.
13 and they, having gone away, found as He has said to them, and they made the Passover ready.
And they went and found as He had told them; and prepared the passover.
14 And when the hour was come, He reclined, and the twelve apostles with Him,
And when the hour was come, He sat down and the twelve apostles with Him.
15 and He said to them, “With desire I desired to eat this Passover with you before My suffering,
And He said unto them, I have earnestly desired to eat of this passover with you before I suffer:
16 for I say to you that I may eat of it no longer until it may be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.”
for I say unto you, that I will not eat of it any more, till it be accomplished in the kingdom of God.
17 And having taken a cup, having given thanks, He said, “Take this and divide to yourselves,
And taking the cup He gave thanks and said, Take this and distribute it among yourselves.
18 for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine until the Kingdom of God may come.”
For I tell you, that I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God shall come.
19 And having taken bread, having given thanks, He broke and gave to them, saying, “This is My body, that is being given for you, do this in remembrance of Me.”
And He took bread, and gave thanks and brake it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of me:
20 In like manner, also, the cup after the dining, saying, “This cup [is] the New Covenant in My blood, that is being poured forth for you.
as also the cup after supper, saying, This cup represents the new covenant in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 But behold, the hand of him delivering Me up [is] with Me on the table,
And yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is at table with me:
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.”
and the Son of man is going indeed as was determined; but wo to that man by whom He is betrayed.
23 And they began to reason among themselves who then of them it may be who is about to do this thing.
And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do it.
24 And there happened also a strife among them—who of them is accounted to be greater.
And there was also a dispute among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest:
25 And He said to them, “The kings of the nations exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority on them are called benefactors;
but He said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority are called benefactors.
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 ye shall not do so: but let the greatest among you be as the younger; and he that presides as he that serveth.
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 which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at table? but I am among you as one that serveth.
28 And you are those who have remained with Me in My temptations,
Ye have continued with me in my temptations;
29 and I appoint to you a kingdom, as My Father appointed to Me,
and I appoint you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me:
30 that you may eat and may drink at My table, in My kingdom, and may sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the LORD said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked for himself to sift you as the wheat,
And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you my disciples, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 and I implored for you that your faith may not fail; and you, when you turned, strengthen your brothers.”
but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
33 And he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death”;
And he said unto Him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee both to prison and to death.
34 and He said, “I say to you, Peter, a rooster will not crow today, before you may disown knowing Me three times.”
But He replied, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.
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.”
And He said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, or bag, or shoes, did ye want any thing? and 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 said He unto them, But now let him, that hath a purse, take it, and his bag likewise; and let him that has no sword, sell his garment and buy one:
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 yet be accomplished in me, "And He was numbered with transgressors," for the things foretold concerning me are near at an end.
38 And they said, “Lord, behold, here [are] two swords”; and He said to them, “It is sufficient.”
And they said, Lord, behold here are two swords. And He said unto them, It is enough.
39 And having gone forth, He went on, according to custom, to the Mount of Olives, and His disciples also followed Him,
And He came out and went, as He used to do, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed Him.
40 and having come to the place, He said to them, “Pray to not enter into temptation.”
And when He was at the place, He said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
41 And He was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone’s cast, and having fallen on the knees He was praying,
And when He was withdrawn from them about a stone's-cast, He kneeled down and prayed saying,
42 saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me, but not My will, but Yours be done.”
Father, if thou art willing take away this cup from me---nevertheless, not my will but thine be done.
43 And there appeared to Him a messenger from Heaven strengthening Him;
And there appeared to Him an angel from heaven strengthening Him.
44 and having been in agony, He was more earnestly praying, and His sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling on the ground.
And being in agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was like clotted blood falling down upon the ground.
45 And having risen up from the prayer, having come to the disciples, He found them sleeping from the sorrow,
And when He rose up from prayer, He came to his disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow;
46 and He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Having risen, pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
and He said to them, Why do ye sleep? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
47 And while He is speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the Twelve, was coming before them, and he came near to Jesus to kiss Him,
And while He was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve apostles, came before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss Him:
48 and Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you deliver up the Son of Man with a kiss?”
and Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
49 And those around Him, having seen what was about to be, said to Him, “Lord, will we strike with a sword?”
But when they that were about Him saw what would follow, they said to Him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
50 And a certain one of them struck the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,
And one of them smote the high priest's servant and cut off his right ear:
51 and Jesus answering said, “Permit thus far,” and having touched his ear, He healed him.
but Jesus said, Suffer ye thus far; and He touched his ear and healed him.
52 And Jesus said to those having come on Him—chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders, “Have you come forth with swords and sticks as on a robber?
Then said Jesus to the chief priests, and officers of the temple, and elders, that were come to Him, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and clubs?
53 While daily I was with you in the temple, you stretched forth no hands against Me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.”
When I was day after 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.
54 And having taken Him, they led and brought Him into the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following far off,
Then they took Him and led Him away, and brought Him to the high priest's. And Peter followed at a distance.
55 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,
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and sat down together, Peter also sat down among them:
56 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!”
and a servant-maid seeing him as he sat by the fire, and looking hard at him, said, This fellow was also with Him:
57 And he disowned Him, saying, “Woman, I have not known Him.”
But he denied Him, saying, Woman, I do not know Him.
58 And after a while, another having seen him, said, “And you are of them!” And Peter said, “Man, I am not.”
And after a little while another person seeing him said, And thou art one of them: but Peter said, Man, I am not.
59 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”;
And about an hour after, another confidently affirmed saying, In truth this fellow also was with Him; for he is a Galilean too: but Peter answered,
60 and Peter said, “Man, I have not known what you say”; and immediately, while he is speaking, a rooster crowed.
Man, I know not what thou sayst. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crew.
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”;
And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter called to mind the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, Before the cock crow thou wilt deny me thrice.
62 and Peter having gone outside, wept bitterly.
And Peter went out and wept bitterly.
63 And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking Him, beating [Him];
And the men that laid hold on Jesus, insulted and abused Him;
64 and having blindfolded Him, they were striking Him on the face, and were questioning Him, saying, “Prophesy who he is who struck You?”
and when they had blind-folded Him, they struck Him on the face, and asked Him, saying, Prophesy who it was that smote thee.
65 And many other things, slandering, they spoke in regard to Him.
And many other things spake they against Him, blaspheming Him.
66 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 Sanhedrin,
And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people, and chief-priests, and scribes, assembled together, and ordered Him up into their council:
67 saying, “If You are the Christ, tell us.” And He said to them, “If I may tell you, you will not believe;
and said to Him, Art thou the Messiah? tell us. And He said unto them, If I should tell you, ye would not believe:
68 and if I also question [you], you will not answer Me or send Me away;
and if I should put any question to you, ye would not answer me, nor discharge me.
69 from now on, there will be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.”
But hereafter shall the Son of man be seated on the right hand of the power of God.
70 And they all said, “You, then, are the Son of God?” And He said to them, “You say [it], because I AM”;
And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God?
71 and they said, “What need do we have yet of testimony? For we ourselves heard [it] from His mouth.”
And He said unto them, I am. And they said, What need have we of any farther evidence? when we ourselves have it from his own mouth?
