Matthew 26:39-45

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁹ And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

⁴⁰ And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?

⁴¹ Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.

⁴² Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.

⁴³ And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.

⁴⁴ And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.

⁴⁵ Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
