Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.
2 The high priest and the Scribes continually sought means to put him to death.

3 Satan however, entered into Judas (the man called Iscariot), who was one of the twelve.

4 And he went out and conferred with the chief priests and commanders

6 He consented to this, and looked for an opportunity to betray him, when the people were not present.

7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, on which the paschal lamb must be sacrificed.

8 So Jesus went to Peter and Johnsaying, "Go and prepare for us the Passover, that we may eat it."
He sent Kipha and Yukhanan, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat."
9 "Where shall we get it ready?" they asked.
They said to him, "Where do you want us to prepare?"
10 He answered. "No sooner will you have entered the city than you will meet a man carrying a water-jug. Follow him into the house were he is going.
He said to them, "Look, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters.
11 "And to the good man of the house say, ‘The teacher asks you, "Where is the room in which I can eat the Passover with my disciples?"‘
Tell the master of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"'
12 "Then he will show you a large upper room furnished. There make your preparations."
He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there."
13 So they went and found everything as he had told them, they prepared the Passover.
They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 And when the hour was come he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him,
When the hour had come, he reclined at the table, and the apostles joined him.
15 and he said to them. "With desire have I longed to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
He said to them, "I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,
16 For I tell you that I certainly will not eat again until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God."
for I say to you, I will not eat of it again until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God."
17 Then he had received a cup and given thanks, he said,
He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, "Take this, and share it among yourselves,
18 "Take this, and divide it among yourselves; for I tell you that I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God is come."
for I tell you, from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the Kingdom of God comes."
19 And he took a loaf, and after giving thanks, he broke it and gave it to them saying. "This is my body, which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me.’
He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me."
20 He gave them a cup in like manner, after supper saying. "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, poured out for your sake.
Likewise, he took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.
21 "But behold, the hand of my betrayer is at the table with me!
But look, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.
22 "The Son of man indeed goes on his way, as it has been determined; but woe to that man by who he is betrayed."
The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed."
23 And they began to question among themselves which of them it could be who was going to do such a thing.

24 And there arose also a dispute among them as to which of them could be considered the greatest,

25 and he said to them. "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who have who have authority over them are called Benefactors.
He said to them, "The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called 'benefactors.'
26 "But you shall not be so. But he who is greater among you let him become like the younger; and he who is leader like him who serves.
But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.
27 "For which is greater, he who sits at table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at table? But I am in your midst as one who serves.
For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.
28 "You, however, are those who have stood by me in my trials.
But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.
29 "And I promise you a kingdom, even as my Father has promised me a kingdom;
I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,
30 "so that you shall eat and drink in my kingdom, and you shall sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israyel."
31 "Simon, Simon," said the Lord, "behold, Satan has asked to have you all that he might sift you like wheat.
And the Lord said, "Shimon, Shimon, look, Satana has demanded to have you all, to sift you like wheat,
32 "But I made supplication for you that your own faith may not fail. And you, when you have turned again, must strengthen your brothers."
but I prayed for you, that your faith would not fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers."
33 "Lord," Simon said to him, "I am ready to go with you, both to prison and to death."
He said to him, "Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death."
34 "I tell you, Peter," he answered. "the cock will not crow this day until you will three times deny that you know me."
He said, "I tell you, Kipha, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times."
35 Moreover, he said to them, "When I sent you out without purse or wallet or sandals, did you lack anything?" They answered him, "We lacked nothing.’
He said to them, "When I sent you out without money bag, and pack, and shoes, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing."
36 Then he said to them. "But now let him who has a purse take it, and he who has a wallet, let him the do the same. And he who has no sword, let him sell his cloak and buy one.
Then he said to them, "But now, whoever has a money bag must take it, and likewise a pack. Whoever has none, must sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
37 "For I say to you that this word of Scripture must find it’s fulfilment in me. "And he was numbered among the transgressors, For that which concerns me has its accomplishment."
For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: 'And he was numbered with transgressors.' For that which concerns me has an end."
38 "Master" they said, "here are two swords!" "That is enough," he answered.
They said, "Lord, look, here are two swords." He said to them, "That is enough."
39 Then he went out, and began to go to the Mount of Olives, as was his wont; and his disciples followed him.
He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.
40 But he arrived at the place he said to them, "Pray that you enter not into temptation."

41 But he himself withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, kneeling down he prayed repeatedly, saying.

42 "Father, if thou art willing, take away this cup from me; but thy will, not mine, be done!"
saying, "Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done."
43 (And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

44 (And being in agony he kept praying more earnestly; and his sweat became as if it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.)

45 When he arose from his prayers, and came to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,

46 and said to them. "Why are you asleep? Get up, and pray that you enter not into temptation."

47 While he was still speaking there came a crowd, and he who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus in order to kiss him,
While he was still speaking, look, a crowd came, and he who was called Yehudah, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Yeshua to kiss him.
48 but Jesus said to him, "Judas, you are betraying the Son of man with a kiss?"
But Yeshua said to him, "Yehudah, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?"
49 Those who were around him, when they saw what was about to happen, said to him, "Lord, shall we strike with our swords?"
When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, "Lord, shall we strike with the sword?"
50 Then one of them did strike a blow at the high priest’s slave, and cut off his right ear.
A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 "Permit me to do this at least," said Jesus, as he touched his ear and healed him.
But Yeshua answered and said, "No more of this." Then he touched his ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the corps of priests and captains of the temple and elders who had come out to arrest him. "Have ye come for me with swords and clubs to arrest me like a robber?
Yeshua said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 "When daily I was with you in the temple you did not stretch out your hands to take me; but this is your hour and the power of darkness."
When I was with you in the temple daily, you did not stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness."
54 So they seized him and led him away, and took him to the house of the high priest; while Peter was following him a long way off.
They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest's house. But Kipha followed from a distance.
55 And when they had lighted a fire in the center of the court, and had sat down together, Peter was taking his seat among them.
When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Kipha sat among them.
56 But a certain maid servant saw him taking his seat near the fire and, with a sharp glance at him, she said, "This fellow was with him, too!"
A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, "This man also was with him."
57 But he denied it, saying, "Woman, I know nothing about him."
But he denied it, saying, "Woman, I do not know him."
58 A little later a man saw him, and said, "You too are one of them" But Peter declared, "Man, I am not."
After a little while someone else saw him, and said, "You also are one of them." But Kipha answered, "Man, I am not."
59 But an hour afterwards another man kept insisting, saying. "Really, this fellow was with him. Why, he is a Galilean."
After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, "Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean."
60 "Man," said Peter, "I do not know what you mean." And immediately, while he was still speaking, the cock crew.
But Kipha said, "Man, I do not know what you are talking about." Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
61 Then the Lord turned and looked at Peter, and Peter recollected the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, "This very day, before the cock crows, you will deny me three times."
The Lord turned, and looked at Kipha. Then Kipha remembered the Lord's word, how he said to him, "Before the rooster crows today you will deny me three times."
62 And Peter went outside and wept with bitter crying.
And he went out, and wept bitterly.
63 Meanwhile the men who were holding Jesus in custody kept mocking and striking him.
The men who held him began mocking and beating him.
64 They would blindfold him and ask him. "Prophesy! Tell who struck you!"
And having blindfolded him, they were striking his face and kept asking him, saying, "Prophesy, who is the one who struck you?"
65 And they said many other insulting things against him.

66 When it became the day the elders if the people met with the high priests and the Scribes and had brought before the Sanhedrin, saying.
As soon as it was day, the council of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,
67 "Are you the Christ? Tell us!" "If I tell you," he answered, "you will not believe;
"If you are the Meshikha, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you won't believe,
68 "And if I ask you, you will not answer.
and if I ask, you will not answer me, or let me go.
69 "But from henceforth the Son of man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God."
From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God."
70 Then they all said, "Are you then the Son of God."
They all said, "Are you then the Son of God?" He said to them, "You say that I am."
71 "What need we of further evidence? for we ourselves have heard it from his own lips."
They said, "Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth."
