< Luke 22 >

1 And the feast of the unleavened bread, which is called a Passover, was drawing near.
Now the feast of vnleauened bread drewe neere, which is called the Passeouer.
2 And the High-priests and the Scribes were seeking, how they might get rid of him; for they feared the people.
And the hie Priests and Scribes sought how they might kill him: for they feared the people.
3 But Satan entered into Judas, him called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve;
Then entred Satan into Iudas, who was called Iscariot, and was of the nomber of the twelue.
4 and, departing, he conversed with the High-priests and Captains, as to how, unto them, he might deliver him up.
And he went his way, and communed with the hie Priestes and captaines, how he might betray him to them.
5 And they rejoiced, and bargained with him to give him, silver;
So they were glad, and agreed to giue him money.
6 and he freely consented, and began seeking a good opportunity for delivering him up, in the absence of a multitude, unto them.
And he consented, and sought opportunitie to betraye him vnto them, when the people were away.
7 Now the day of the unleavened bread a came, —on which it was needful to be sacrificing the passover.
Then came the day of vnleauened bread, when the Passeouer must be sacrificed.
8 And he sent forth Peter and John, saying—Go, and make ready, for us, the passover, that we may eat.
And he sent Peter and Iohn, saying, Go and prepare vs the Passeouer, that we may eate it.
9 And, they, said unto him—Where wiliest thou, we should make ready?
And they saide to him, Where wilt thou, that we prepare it?
10 And, he, said unto them—Lo! when ye have entered into the city, there will meet you a man, bearing, an earthen-jar of water: follow him into the house into which he is entering.
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,
11 And ye shall say unto the master of the house—The teacher saith unto thee, where is the lodging, where, the passover, with my disciples, I may eat?
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?
12 And, he, unto you, will shew, a large upper room, spread: there, make ready.
Then he shall shewe you a great hie chamber trimmed: there make it ready.
13 And, departing, they found according as he had said unto them, and made ready the passover.
So they went, and found as he had said vnto them, and made readie the Passeouer.
14 And, when the hour arrived, he reclined, and the apostles with him.
And when the houre was come, hee sate downe, and the twelue Apostles with him.
15 And he said unto them—I have greatly desired, to eat, this passover, with you before I suffer;
Then he saide vnto them, I haue earnestly desired to eate this Passeouer with you, before I suffer.
16 For, I say unto you—In nowise shall I eat it, until it have been fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
For I say vnto you, Hencefoorth I will not eate of it any more, vntill it bee fulfilled in the kingdome of God.
17 And, accepting a cup, giving thanks, he said—Take this, and divide among yourselves;
And hee tooke the cup, and gaue thankes, and said, Take this, and deuide it among you,
18 For, I say unto you—In nowise shall I drink henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until, the kingdom of God, shall come.
For I say vnto you, I will not drinke of the fruite of the vine, vntill the kingdome of God be come.
19 And, taking a loaf, he gave thanks, and brake, and gave unto them, saying—This is my body which in your behalf is being given: this, be ye doing, in remembrance, of me.
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.
20 And—the cup, in like manner, after the taking of supper, saying—This cup, is the new covenant in my blood, which, in your behalf, is to be poured out.
Likewise also after supper he tooke the cup, saying, This cup is that newe Testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 Nevertheless, lo! the hand of him who is delivering me up, is with me upon the table.
Yet beholde, the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table.
22 Because, the Son of Man, indeed, according to what is marked out, goeth his way; nevertheless, alas! for that man through whom he is being delivered up.
And truely the Sonne of man goeth as it is appointed: but woe be to that man, by whom he is betrayed.
23 And, they, began to be enquiring together, among themselves, as to which, then, it could be, from among them, who, this thing, was about to perpetrate!
Then they began to enquire among themselues which of them it should be, that should do that.
24 And it came to pass that there was, a rivalry also, among them, as to which of them seemed to be greater [than the rest].
And there arose also a strife among them, which of them should seeme to be ye greatest.
25 And, he, said unto them—The kings of the nations, lord it over them, and, they who wield authority over them, benefactors, are called.
But hee saide vnto them, The Kings of the Gentiles reigne ouer them, and they that beare rule ouer them, are called bountifull.
26 But, ye, not so! On the contrary—the greater among you, Let him become as, the younger, and, he that governeth, as, he that ministereth,
But yee shall not be so: but let the greatest among you be as the least: and the chiefest as he that serueth.
27 For which is greater—he that reclineth? or he that ministereth? Is not he that reclineth? But, I, am, in your midst, as he that ministereth,
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.
28 Ye, however, are they who have remained throughout with me in my temptations;
And yee are they which haue continued with me in my tentations.
29 And, I, covenant unto you—as my Father hath covenanted unto me—a kingdom,
Therefore I appoint vnto you a kingdome, as my Father hath appointed vnto me,
30 That ye may eat and drink, at my table, in my kingdom, and sit upon thrones, judging, the twelve tribes of Israel.
That ye may eate, and drinke at my table in my kingdome, and sit on seates, and iudge the twelue tribes of Israel.
31 Simon! Simon! lo! Satan, hath claimed you, to sift as wheat;
And the Lord saide, Simon, Simon, beholde, Satan hath desired you, to winowe you as wheate.
32 But, I, have entreated for thee, that thy faith may not fail. And, thou, once thou hast turned, strengthen thy brethren.
But I haue prayed for thee, that thy faith faile not: therefore when thou art conuerted, strengthen thy brethren.
33 But, he, said unto him—Lord! with thee, am I, ready, both into prison and unto death, to be going.
And he said vnto him, Lord, I am ready to goe with thee into prison, and to death.
34 And, he, said: I tell thee, Peter—A cock will not crow this day, until, thrice, thou deny that thou knowest me.
But he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cocke shall not crowe this day, before thou hast thrise denied that thou knewest me.
35 And he said unto them—When I sent you forth, without purse or satchel or sandals, of anything, came ye short? And, they, said—Of nothing!
And he saide vnto them, When I sent you without bagge, and scrip, and shooes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
36 And he said unto them—But, now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, in like manner also, a satchel; and, he that hath nothing, let him sell his mantle, and buy a sword!
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.
37 For I say unto you—This that is written, must needs be completed in me, —And, with lawless ones, was he reckoned; for, even that which concerneth me, hath, completion.
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.
38 And, they, said—Lord, lo! two swords, here! And, he, said unto them—’Tis, enough!
And they said, Lord, beholde, here are two swordes. And he said vnto them, It is ynough.
39 And going out, he went, according to his custom, unto the Mount of Olives; and the disciples [also] followed him.
And he came out, and went (as he was wont) to the mount of Oliues: and his disciples also followed him.
40 And, coming up to the place, he said unto them—Be praying, lest ye enter into temptation.
And when hee came to the place, hee said to them, Pray, lest ye enter into tentation.
41 And, he, was torn from them about a stone’s throw; and, bending his knees, he began to pray,
And he was drawen aside from them about a stones cast, and kneeled downe, and prayed,
42 saying—Father! if thou please, bear aside this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but thine, be accomplished.
Saying, Father, if thou wilt, take away this cuppe from mee: neuerthelesse, not my will, but thine be done.
43 And there appeared unto him a messenger from heaven, strengthening him, —
And there appeared an Angell vnto him from heauen, comforting him.
44 and, coming to be in an agony, more intensely, was he praying; and his perspiration became, as if great drops of blood, falling upon the ground.
But being in an agonie, hee prayed more earnestly: and his sweate was like drops of blood, trickling downe to the ground.
45 And, arising from prayer, he came unto his disciples, and found them falling asleep by reason of their grief;
And he rose vp from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for heauinesse.
46 and he said unto them—Why are ye slumbering? Arise! and be praying, lest ye enter into temptation.
And he said vnto them, Why sleepe ye? rise and pray, least ye enter into tentation.
47 While yet he was speaking, lo! a multitude; and, he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them on, —and he drew near unto Jesus, to kiss him.
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.
48 But, Jesus, said to him—Judas! with a kiss, the Son of Man, dost thou deliver up?
And Iesus saide vnto him, Iudas, betrayest thou the Sonne of man with a kisse?
49 And they who were about him, seeing what would be, said—Lord! shall we smite with the sword?
Now when they which were about him, saw what would follow, they said vnto him, Lord, shall we smite with sworde?
50 And a certain one from among them smote, the High-priest’s, servant, and took off his right ear.
And one of them smote a seruant of the hie Priest, and strooke off his right eare.
51 But Jesus, answering, said—Let be—as long as this! …And, touching the ear, he healed him.
Then Iesus answered, and said, Suffer them thus farre: and he touched his eare, and healed him.
52 And Jesus said unto the High-priests, and Captains of the temple, and Elders, who had come against him—As against a robber, have ye come out, with swords and clubs?
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?
53 Daily, was I with you, in the temple, and yet ye stretched not forth your hands against me! …But, this, is your hour, and the authority of darkness.
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.
54 And, having arrested him, they led him away, and took him into the house of the High-priest; and, Peter, was following afar.
Then tooke they him, and led him, and brought him to the hie Priestes house. And Peter followed afarre off.
55 And, they having kindled up a fire in the midst of the court, and taken seats together, Peter was for sitting among them.
And when they had kindled a fire in the middes of the hall, and were set downe together, Peter also sate downe among them.
56 But, a certain maid-servant, seeing him seating himself towards the light, and looking steadfastly at him, said—This one also, was, with him.
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.
57 But, he, denied, saying—I know him not, woman!
But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58 And, after a little, another, beholding him, said—Thou also, art, from among them. But, Peter, said—Man! I am not.
And after a little while, another man sawe him, and saide, Thou art also of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.
59 And, about one hour having passed, a certain other, began stoutly to insist, saying—Of a truth, this one also, was with him; for indeed he is, a Galilaean.
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.
60 But Peter said—Man! I know not what thou art saying! And, instantly while yet he was speaking, a cock crew.
And Peter saide, Man, I knowe not what thou sayest. And immediatly while hee yet spake, the cocke crewe.
61 And the Lord turned, and looked at Peter; and Peter was put in mind of the declaration of the Lord, how he had said to him—Before, a cock, crow this day, thou wilt deny me thrice!
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.
62 [And, going forth outside, he wept bitterly.]
And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
63 And, the men who held him bound, kept mocking him, with blows;
And the men that helde Iesus, mocked him, and strooke him.
64 and, blindfolding him, questioned him, saying—Prophesy! which is he that smote thee?
And when they had blindfolded him, they smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophecie who it is that smote thee.
65 and, many other things, with profane speech, were they saying unto him.
And many other thinges blasphemously spake they against him.
66 And, when it became day, the Eldership of the people was gathered together—both High-priests and Scribes, —and they led him away into their high-council, saying—If, thou, art the Christ, tell us!
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,
67 But he said unto them—If I should tell, you, in nowise would ye believe,
Saying, Art thou that Christ? tell vs. And he said vnto them, If I tell you, ye wil not beleeue it.
68 And, if I should put questions, in nowise would ye answer;
And if also I aske you, you will not answere me, nor let me goe.
69 But, henceforth, shall the Son of Man be seated on the right hand of the power of God.
Hereafter shall the Sonne of man sit at the right hand of the power of God.
70 And they all said—Thou, then, art the Son of God? And, he, unto them said—Ye, say [it], —because, I, am.
Then sayd they all, Art thou then ye Sonne of God? And he sayd to them, Ye say, that I am.
71 And, they, said—What, further, need have we, of witness? We ourselves, have heard it from his mouth.
Then sayd they, What neede we any further witnes? for we our selues haue heard it of his owne mouth.
