Luke 22:22–38

22 “For indeed, the Son of Man is going aas it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”

23 And they began to discuss among themselves which one of them it might be who was going to do this thing.

Who Is Greatest

24 And there arose also aa dispute among them as to which one of them was regarded to be greatest.

25 aAnd He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’

26 “But it is not this way with you, abut the one who is the greatest among you must become like bthe youngest, and the leader like the servant.

27 “For awho is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But bI am among you as the one who serves.

28 “You are those who have stood by Me in My atrials;

29 and just as My Father has granted Me a akingdom, I grant you

30 that you may aeat and drink at My table in My bkingdom, and cyou will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31 “Simon, Simon, behold, aSatan has 1demanded permission to bsift you like wheat;

32 but I ahave prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, when once you have turned again, bstrengthen your brothers.”

33 aBut he said to Him, “Lord, with You I am ready to go both to prison and to death!”

34 And He said, “I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”

35 And He said to them, “aWhen I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They said, “No, nothing.”

36 And He said to them, “But now, 1whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and 1whoever has no sword is to sell his 2coat and buy one.

37 “For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me, ‘aAnd He was numbered with transgressors’; for bthat which refers to Me has its 1fulfillment.”

38 They said, “Lord, look, here are two aswords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”
