Mark 14:27–54
27 aAnd Jesus * said to them, “You will all 1fall away, because it is written, ‘bI will strike down the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.’
28 “But after I have been raised, aI will go ahead of you to Galilee.”
29 But Peter said to Him, “Even though all may 1fall away, yet I will not.”
30 And Jesus * said to him, “Truly I say to you, that 1athis very night, before ba rooster crows twice, you yourself will deny Me three times.”
31 But Peter kept saying insistently, “Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!” And they all were saying the same thing also.
32 aThey * came to a place named Gethsemane; and He * said to His disciples, “Sit here until I have prayed.”
33 And He * took with Him Peter and 1James and John, and began to be very adistressed and troubled.
34 And He * said to them, “aMy soul is deeply grieved to the point of death; remain here and keep watch.”
35 And He went a little beyond them, and fell to the ground and began to pray that if it were possible, athe hour might 1pass Him by.
36 And He was saying, “aAbba! Father! All things are possible for You; remove this cup from Me; byet not what I will, but what You will.”
37 And He * came and * found them sleeping, and * said to Peter, “Simon, are you asleep? Could you not keep watch for one hour?
38 “aKeep watching and praying that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
39 Again He went away and prayed, saying the same 1words.
40 And again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him.
41 And He * came the third time, and * said to them, “1Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough; athe hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being 2betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42 “Get up, let us be going; behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!”
43 aImmediately while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, * came up 1accompanied by a crowd with swords and clubs, who were from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
44 Now he who was betraying Him had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I kiss, He is the one; seize Him and lead Him away 1under guard.”
45 After coming, Judas immediately went to Him, saying, “aRabbi!” and kissed Him.
46 They laid hands on Him and seized Him.
47 But one of those who stood by drew his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest and 1cut off his ear.
48 And Jesus said to them, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me, as you would against a robber?
49 “Every day I was with you ain the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this has taken place to fulfill the Scriptures.”
50 And they all left Him and fled.
51 A young man was following Him, wearing nothing but a linen sheet over his naked body; and they * seized him.
52 But he 1pulled free of the linen sheet and escaped naked.
53 aThey led Jesus away to the high priest; and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes * gathered together.
54 Peter had followed Him at a distance, aright into bthe courtyard of the high priest; and he was sitting with the 1officers and cwarming himself at the 2fire.
