用计杀主
22 除酵节——又叫逾越节——近了。 2 祭司长和文士想法子怎么才能杀害耶稣，是因他们惧怕百姓。
犹大卖主
3 这时，撒旦入了那称为加略人犹大的心，他本是十二门徒里的一个。 4 他去和祭司长并守殿官商量，怎么可以把耶稣交给他们。 5 他们欢喜，就约定给他银子。 6 他应允了，就找机会，要趁众人不在跟前的时候把耶稣交给他们。
预备逾越节的筵席
7 除酵节，须宰逾越羊羔的那一天到了。 8 耶稣打发彼得、约翰说：“你们去为我们预备逾越节的筵席，好叫我们吃。” 9 他们问他说：“要我们在哪里预备？” 10 耶稣说：“你们进了城，必有人拿着一瓶水迎面而来，你们就跟着他，到他所进的房子里去， 11 对那家的主人说：‘夫子说：客房在哪里？我与门徒好在那里吃逾越节的筵席。’ 12 他必指给你们摆设整齐的一间大楼，你们就在那里预备。” 13 他们去了，所遇见的正如耶稣所说的，他们就预备了逾越节的筵席。
设立圣餐
14 时候到了，耶稣坐席，使徒也和他同坐。 15 耶稣对他们说：“我很愿意在受害以先和你们吃这逾越节的筵席。 16 我告诉你们，我不再吃这筵席，直到成就在神的国里。” 17 耶稣接过杯来，祝谢了，说：“你们拿这个，大家分着喝。 18 我告诉你们，从今以后，我不再喝这葡萄汁，直等神的国来到。” 19 又拿起饼来，祝谢了，就掰开，递给他们，说：“这是我的身体，为你们舍的。你们也应当如此行，为的是记念我。” 20 饭后也照样拿起杯来，说：“这杯是用我血所立的新约，是为你们流出来的。 21 看哪，那卖我之人的手与我一同在桌子上！ 22 人子固然要照所预定的去世，但卖人子的人有祸了！” 23 他们就彼此对问，是哪一个要做这事。
争论谁为大
24 门徒起了争论：他们中间哪一个可算为大。 25 耶稣说：“外邦人有君王为主治理他们，那掌权管他们的称为恩主。 26 但你们不可这样，你们里头为大的，倒要像年幼的；为首领的，倒要像服侍人的。 27 是谁为大？是坐席的呢，是服侍人的呢？不是坐席的大吗？然而，我在你们中间如同服侍人的。 28 我在磨炼之中，常和我同在的就是你们。 29 我将国赐给你们，正如我父赐给我一样， 30 叫你们在我国里坐在我的席上吃喝，并且坐在宝座上审判以色列十二个支派。”
预言彼得不认主
31 主又说：“西门，西门，撒旦想要得着你们，好筛你们像筛麦子一样。 32 但我已经为你祈求，叫你不至于失了信心。你回头以后，要坚固你的弟兄。” 33 彼得说：“主啊，我就是同你下监，同你受死，也是甘心！” 34 耶稣说：“彼得，我告诉你：今日鸡还没有叫，你要三次说不认得我。”
35 耶稣又对他们说：“我差你们出去的时候，没有钱囊、没有口袋、没有鞋，你们缺少什么没有？”他们说：“没有。” 36 耶稣说：“但如今有钱囊的可以带着，有口袋的也可以带着，没有刀的要卖衣服买刀。 37 我告诉你们，经上写着说‘他被列在罪犯之中’，这话必应验在我身上，因为那关系我的事必然成就。” 38 他们说：“主啊，请看，这里有两把刀！”耶稣说：“够了。”
在客西马尼祷告
39 耶稣出来，照常往橄榄山去，门徒也跟随他。 40 到了那地方，就对他们说：“你们要祷告，免得入了迷惑。” 41 于是离开他们约有扔一块石头那么远，跪下祷告， 42 说：“父啊！你若愿意，就把这杯撤去！然而，不要成就我的意思，只要成就你的意思。” 43 有一位天使从天上显现，加添他的力量。 44 耶稣极其伤痛，祷告更加恳切，汗珠如大血点滴在地上。
主勉励门徒警醒祷告
45 祷告完了，就起来，到门徒那里，见他们因为忧愁都睡着了， 46 就对他们说：“你们为什么睡觉呢？起来祷告，免得入了迷惑。”
盗卖和捉拿
47 说话之间，来了许多人。那十二个门徒里名叫犹大的走在前头，就近耶稣，要与他亲嘴。 48 耶稣对他说：“犹大，你用亲嘴的暗号卖人子吗？” 49 左右的人见光景不好，就说：“主啊，我们拿刀砍可以不可以？” 50 内中有一个人把大祭司的仆人砍了一刀，削掉了他的右耳。 51 耶稣说：“到了这个地步，由他们吧！”就摸那人的耳朵，把他治好了。 52 耶稣对那些来拿他的祭司长和守殿官并长老说：“你们带着刀棒出来拿我，如同拿强盗吗？ 53 我天天同你们在殿里，你们不下手拿我。现在却是你们的时候，黑暗掌权了。”
彼得三次不认主
54 他们拿住耶稣，把他带到大祭司的宅里。彼得远远地跟着。 55 他们在院子里生了火，一同坐着，彼得也坐在他们中间。 56 有一个使女看见彼得坐在火光里，就定睛看他，说：“这个人素来也是同那人一伙的。” 57 彼得却不承认，说：“女子，我不认得他。” 58 过了不多的时候，又有一个人看见他，说：“你也是他们一党的。”彼得说：“你这个人！我不是。” 59 约过了一小时，又有一个人极力地说：“他实在是同那人一伙的，因为他也是加利利人。” 60 彼得说：“你这个人！我不晓得你说的是什么！”正说话之间，鸡就叫了。 61 主转过身来看彼得，彼得便想起主对他所说的话：“今日鸡叫以先，你要三次不认我。” 62 他就出去痛哭。
戏弄耶稣
63 看守耶稣的人戏弄他，打他， 64 又蒙着他的眼，问他说：“你是先知，告诉我们打你的是谁？” 65 他们还用许多别的话辱骂他。
在公会前受审
66 天一亮，民间的众长老连祭司长带文士都聚会，把耶稣带到他们的公会里， 67 说：“你若是基督，就告诉我们。”耶稣说：“我若告诉你们，你们也不信； 68 我若问你们，你们也不回答。 69 从今以后，人子要坐在神权能的右边。” 70 他们都说：“这样，你是神的儿子吗？”耶稣说：“你们所说的是。” 71 他们说：“何必再用见证呢？他亲口所说的，我们都亲自听见了。”

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus(A)
22 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,(B) 2 and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus,(C) for they were afraid of the people. 3 Then Satan(D) entered Judas, called Iscariot,(E) one of the Twelve. 4 And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard(F) and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. 5 They were delighted and agreed to give him money.(G) 6 He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.
The Last Supper(H)(I)(J)(K)(L)
7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.(M) 8 Jesus sent Peter and John,(N) saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”
9 “Where do you want us to prepare for it?” they asked.
10 He replied, “As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, 11 and say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 12 He will show you a large room upstairs, all furnished. Make preparations there.”
13 They left and found things just as Jesus had told them.(O) So they prepared the Passover.
14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles(P) reclined at the table.(Q) 15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.(R) 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”(S)
17 After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. 18 For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it,(T) and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant(U) in my blood, which is poured out for you.[a] 21 But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table.(V) 22 The Son of Man(W) will go as it has been decreed.(X) But woe to that man who betrays him!” 23 They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this.
24 A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest.(Y) 25 Jesus said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. 26 But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest,(Z) and the one who rules like the one who serves.(AA) 27 For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.(AB) 28 You are those who have stood by me in my trials. 29 And I confer on you a kingdom,(AC) just as my Father conferred one on me, 30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom(AD) and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(AE)
31 “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked(AF) to sift all of you as wheat.(AG) 32 But I have prayed for you,(AH) Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”(AI)
33 But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”(AJ)
34 Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”
35 Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals,(AK) did you lack anything?”
“Nothing,” they answered.
36 He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. 37 It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’[b];(AL) and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
38 The disciples said, “See, Lord, here are two swords.”
“That’s enough!” he replied.
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives(AM)
39 Jesus went out as usual(AN) to the Mount of Olives,(AO) and his disciples followed him. 40 On reaching the place, he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”(AP) 41 He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, knelt down(AQ) and prayed, 42 “Father, if you are willing, take this cup(AR) from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.”(AS) 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him.(AT) 44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.[c]
45 When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. 46 “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.”(AU)
Jesus Arrested(AV)
47 While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him, 48 but Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 When Jesus’ followers saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”(AW) 50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard,(AX) and the elders, who had come for him, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? 53 Every day I was with you in the temple courts,(AY) and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour(AZ)—when darkness reigns.”(BA)
Peter Disowns Jesus(BB)
54 Then seizing him, they led him away and took him into the house of the high priest.(BC) Peter followed at a distance.(BD) 55 And when some there had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat down with them. 56 A servant girl saw him seated there in the firelight. She looked closely at him and said, “This man was with him.”
57 But he denied it. “Woman, I don’t know him,” he said.
58 A little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.”
“Man, I am not!” Peter replied.
59 About an hour later another asserted, “Certainly this fellow was with him, for he is a Galilean.”(BE)
60 Peter replied, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just as he was speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 The Lord(BF) turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times.”(BG) 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.
The Guards Mock Jesus(BH)
63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and demanded, “Prophesy! Who hit you?” 65 And they said many other insulting things to him.(BI)
Jesus Before Pilate and Herod(BJ)(BK)(BL)
66 At daybreak the council(BM) of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and the teachers of the law, met together,(BN) and Jesus was led before them. 67 “If you are the Messiah,” they said, “tell us.”
Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me, 68 and if I asked you, you would not answer.(BO) 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.”(BP)
70 They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?”(BQ)
He replied, “You say that I am.”(BR)
71 Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.”

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
22 The Festival of Unleavened Bread, which is also called Passover, was approaching. 2 The leading priests and teachers of religious law were plotting how to kill Jesus, but they were afraid of the people’s reaction.
3 Then Satan entered into Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve disciples, 4 and he went to the leading priests and captains of the Temple guard to discuss the best way to betray Jesus to them. 5 They were delighted, and they promised to give him money. 6 So he agreed and began looking for an opportunity to betray Jesus so they could arrest him when the crowds weren’t around.
The Last Supper
7 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed. 8 Jesus sent Peter and John ahead and said, “Go and prepare the Passover meal, so we can eat it together.”
9 “Where do you want us to prepare it?” they asked him.
10 He replied, “As soon as you enter Jerusalem, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him. At the house he enters, 11 say to the owner, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?’ 12 He will take you upstairs to a large room that is already set up. That is where you should prepare our meal.” 13 They went off to the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they prepared the Passover meal there.
14 When the time came, Jesus and the apostles sat down together at the table.[a] 15 Jesus said, “I have been very eager to eat this Passover meal with you before my suffering begins. 16 For I tell you now that I won’t eat this meal again until its meaning is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.”
17 Then he took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God for it. Then he said, “Take this and share it among yourselves. 18 For I will not drink wine again until the Kingdom of God has come.”
19 He took some bread and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”
20 After supper he took another cup of wine and said, “This cup is the new covenant between God and his people—an agreement confirmed with my blood, which is poured out as a sacrifice for you.[b]
21 “But here at this table, sitting among us as a friend, is the man who will betray me. 22 For it has been determined that the Son of Man[c] must die. But what sorrow awaits the one who betrays him.” 23 The disciples began to ask each other which of them would ever do such a thing.
24 Then they began to argue among themselves about who would be the greatest among them. 25 Jesus told them, “In this world the kings and great men lord it over their people, yet they are called ‘friends of the people.’ 26 But among you it will be different. Those who are the greatest among you should take the lowest rank, and the leader should be like a servant. 27 Who is more important, the one who sits at the table or the one who serves? The one who sits at the table, of course. But not here! For I am among you as one who serves.
28 “You have stayed with me in my time of trial. 29 And just as my Father has granted me a Kingdom, I now grant you the right 30 to eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. And you will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
31 “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat. 32 But I have pleaded in prayer for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. So when you have repented and turned to me again, strengthen your brothers.”
33 Peter said, “Lord, I am ready to go to prison with you, and even to die with you.”
34 But Jesus said, “Peter, let me tell you something. Before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me.”
35 Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you out to preach the Good News and you did not have money, a traveler’s bag, or an extra pair of sandals, did you need anything?”
“No,” they replied.
36 “But now,” he said, “take your money and a traveler’s bag. And if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one! 37 For the time has come for this prophecy about me to be fulfilled: ‘He was counted among the rebels.’[d] Yes, everything written about me by the prophets will come true.”
38 “Look, Lord,” they replied, “we have two swords among us.”
“That’s enough,” he said.
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives
39 Then, accompanied by the disciples, Jesus left the upstairs room and went as usual to the Mount of Olives. 40 There he told them, “Pray that you will not give in to temptation.”
41 He walked away, about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and prayed, 42 “Father, if you are willing, please take this cup of suffering away from me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.” 43 Then an angel from heaven appeared and strengthened him. 44 He prayed more fervently, and he was in such agony of spirit that his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood.[e]
45 At last he stood up again and returned to the disciples, only to find them asleep, exhausted from grief. 46 “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray, so that you will not give in to temptation.”
Jesus Is Betrayed and Arrested
47 But even as Jesus said this, a crowd approached, led by Judas, one of the twelve disciples. Judas walked over to Jesus to greet him with a kiss. 48 But Jesus said, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 When the other disciples saw what was about to happen, they exclaimed, “Lord, should we fight? We brought the swords!” 50 And one of them struck at the high priest’s slave, slashing off his right ear.
51 But Jesus said, “No more of this.” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus spoke to the leading priests, the captains of the Temple guard, and the elders who had come for him. “Am I some dangerous revolutionary,” he asked, “that you come with swords and clubs to arrest me? 53 Why didn’t you arrest me in the Temple? I was there every day. But this is your moment, the time when the power of darkness reigns.”
Peter Denies Jesus
54 So they arrested him and led him to the high priest’s home. And Peter followed at a distance. 55 The guards lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat around it, and Peter joined them there. 56 A servant girl noticed him in the firelight and began staring at him. Finally she said, “This man was one of Jesus’ followers!”
57 But Peter denied it. “Woman,” he said, “I don’t even know him!”
58 After a while someone else looked at him and said, “You must be one of them!”
“No, man, I’m not!” Peter retorted.
59 About an hour later someone else insisted, “This must be one of them, because he is a Galilean, too.”
60 But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
61 At that moment the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Suddenly, the Lord’s words flashed through Peter’s mind: “Before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will deny three times that you even know me.” 62 And Peter left the courtyard, weeping bitterly.
63 The guards in charge of Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and said, “Prophesy to us! Who hit you that time?” 65 And they hurled all sorts of terrible insults at him.
Jesus before the Council
66 At daybreak all the elders of the people assembled, including the leading priests and the teachers of religious law. Jesus was led before this high council,[f] 67 and they said, “Tell us, are you the Messiah?”
But he replied, “If I tell you, you won’t believe me. 68 And if I ask you a question, you won’t answer. 69 But from now on the Son of Man will be seated in the place of power at God’s right hand.[g]”
70 They all shouted, “So, are you claiming to be the Son of God?”
And he replied, “You say that I am.”
71 “Why do we need other witnesses?” they said. “We ourselves heard him say it.”
