Matthew 26:39-44
New King James Version
39 He went a little farther and fell on His face, and (A)prayed, saying, (B)“O My Father, if it is possible, (C)let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, (D)not as I will, but as You will.”
40 Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “What! Could you not watch with Me one hour? 41 (E)Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. (F)The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42 Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, “O My Father, [a]if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done.” 43 And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.
44 So He left them, went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.
