Lucas 22
Palabra de Dios para Todos
Planean matar a Jesús
(Mt 26:1-5; Mr 14:1-2; Jn 11:45-53)
22 Se acercaba ya la fiesta de los Panes sin Levadura, conocida como la Pascua. 2 Los jefes de los sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley estaban buscando cómo matar a Jesús porque le tenían miedo al pueblo.
Judas traiciona a Jesús
(Mt 26:14-16; Mr 14:10-11)
3 Entonces Satanás entró en Judas Iscariote, uno de los doce apóstoles. 4 Judas fue y habló con los jefes de los sacerdotes y los capitanes de la guardia del templo sobre cómo podía entregarles a Jesús. 5 Ellos se alegraron y le prometieron dinero a cambio. 6 Judas se comprometió y entonces empezó a buscar la oportunidad en que no hubiera gente cerca para poder entregarlo.
Preparación de la cena de la Pascua
(Mt 26:17-25; Mr 14:12-21; Jn 13:21-30)
7 Llegó el día de la fiesta de los Panes sin Levadura, cuando se sacrificaba al cordero para la Pascua. 8 Jesús envió a Pedro y a Juan, diciéndoles:
—Vayan y preparen la cena de la Pascua para que podamos cenar.
9 Ellos le dijeron a Jesús:
—¿En dónde quieres que la preparemos?
10 Él les dijo:
—Cuando entren a la ciudad, encontrarán a un hombre llevando un cántaro de agua. Síganlo a la casa donde entre 11 y díganle al dueño: “El Maestro pregunta: ¿Dónde está el cuarto donde voy a comer la Pascua con mis seguidores?” 12 Entonces el dueño les mostrará un cuarto grande en el piso de arriba, ya arreglado. Preparen la cena allí.
13 Entonces Pedro y Juan se fueron para allá y encontraron todo tal como Jesús les había dicho y prepararon la cena de la Pascua.
La Cena del Señor
(Mt 26:26-30; Mr 14:22-26; 1 Co 11:23-25)
14 Cuando llegó la hora de la cena, Jesús y los apóstoles estaban a la mesa. 15 Jesús les dijo:
—Tenía muchas ganas de celebrar esta cena de Pascua con ustedes, antes de padecer. 16 Pues yo les digo que no volveré a celebrar otra cena de Pascua, hasta que se le dé el verdadero significado en el reino de Dios.
17 Entonces Jesús tomó una copa, dio gracias a Dios y dijo:
—Tomen esta copa y compártanla todos. 18 Les digo que no volveré a beber vino hasta que el reino de Dios esté aquí.
19 Entonces Jesús tomó pan, dio gracias a Dios, lo partió, se lo dio a los apóstoles y dijo:
—Este pan es mi cuerpo que doy por ustedes. Cómanlo como recordatorio.
20 De la misma manera, después de la cena tomó la copa y dijo:
—Esta copa es mi sangre que es derramada por ustedes y establece el nuevo pacto.[a] 21 Pero escuchen, uno de ustedes se volverá en contra mía. Su mano está al lado de la mía en la mesa. 22 Es cierto que el Hijo del hombre cumplirá lo que Dios planeó, pero ¡pobre de aquel que lo traiciona!
23 Entonces se empezaron a preguntar entre ellos: «¿Quién de nosotros haría eso?»
Sean como un siervo
24 Más tarde, los apóstoles empezaron a discutir acerca de quién era el más importante entre ellos. 25 Pero Jesús les dijo: «Los reyes de las naciones ejercen dominio sobre su pueblo y los hombres que tienen mucha autoridad sobre otros hacen que los llamen “grandes benefactores del pueblo”, 26 pero ustedes no sean como ellos. El mayor debe hacerse como el menor, y el que manda debe hacerse como el que sirve. 27 ¿Quién es más importante: el que está a la mesa comiendo o el que le está sirviendo? Ustedes piensan que el que está a la mesa es el más importante, pero yo soy como un siervo entre ustedes.
28 »Ustedes son los que han estado conmigo durante todos mis tiempos difíciles. 29 Mi padre me dio un reino y yo les doy también la autoridad para reinar conmigo, 30 para que ustedes coman y beban a la mesa en ese reino, y se sienten en tronos a juzgar a las doce tribus de Israel.
Se anuncia la negación de Pedro
(Mt 26:31-35; Mr 14:27-31; Jn 13:36-38)
31 »¡Simón[b], Simón! Mira que Satanás ha pedido sacudirlos a ustedes como un campesino sacude la paja de los granos de trigo. 32 Pero he orado para que no pierdas tu fe. Cuando vuelvas a mí, ayuda a tus hermanos a ser más fuertes».
33 Pero Simón dijo:
—Señor, estoy listo para ir contigo a la cárcel. ¡Hasta estoy dispuesto a morir por ti!
34 Pero Jesús dijo:
—Pedro, antes de que el gallo cante esta noche, me negarás tres veces.
Estén listos
35 Entonces Jesús les dijo a los seguidores:
—Cuando los envié sin dinero ni provisiones ni sandalias, ¿les hizo falta algo?
Ellos dijeron:
—No, nada.
36 Jesús les dijo:
—Pero ahora, si tienen provisiones o dinero, llévenlos con ustedes. Si no tienen espada, vendan su manto y compren una. 37 (A)Pues les digo que esta Escritura debe cumplirse en mí: “La gente lo consideraba un criminal”.[c] Esta Escritura debe cumplirse en mí. Fue escrita sobre mí y está sucediendo ahora.
38 Los seguidores dijeron:
—Mira Señor, aquí hay dos espadas.
Jesús les dijo:
—¡Basta ya!
Jesús ora solo
(Mt 26:36-46; Mr 14:32-42)
39 Como de costumbre, Jesús salió de la ciudad al monte de los Olivos, y sus seguidores fueron con él. 40 Al llegar ahí, les dijo:
—Oren para que no caigan en tentación.
41 Entonces Jesús se alejó un poco de ellos, se arrodilló y oró: 42 «Padre, líbrame de esta copa, pero que no se haga mi voluntad, sino la tuya». 43 Entonces apareció un ángel del cielo que fue enviado para darle fuerzas. 44 Él estaba sufriendo mucho y oraba con fervor. El sudor era como gotas de sangre que caían al suelo.[d] 45 Cuando Jesús terminó de orar, fue a donde estaban sus seguidores. Se quedaron dormidos vencidos de tristeza. 46 Jesús les dijo:
—¿Por qué están durmiendo? ¡Levántense y oren para que no caigan en tentación!
Arresto de Jesús
(Mt 26:47-56; Mr 14:43-50; Jn 18:3-11)
47 Mientras Jesús estaba hablando, llegó allí mucha gente. Los guiaba uno de los doce apóstoles, llamado Judas. Él se acercó a Jesús para saludarlo con un beso.
48 Pero Jesús le dijo:
—Judas, ¿Con un beso traicionas al Hijo del hombre?
49 Cuando los seguidores vieron lo que estaba pasando, le dijeron a Jesús:
—Señor, ¿atacamos con espada?
50 Uno de ellos le pegó al siervo del sumo sacerdote y le cortó la oreja derecha. 51 Pero Jesús dijo:
—¡Déjenlos!
Entonces Jesús le tocó la oreja al siervo y lo sanó. 52 Luego, Jesús les dijo a los jefes de los sacerdotes, a los jefes de la guardia del templo y a los ancianos líderes, que habían venido a arrestarlo:
—¿Es que yo soy un bandido para que ustedes vengan con espadas y garrotes? 53 Yo he estado con ustedes todos los días en el área del templo y no me arrestaron. Pero esta es su hora, la hora en que reina la oscuridad.
La negación de Pedro
(Mt 26:57-58, 69-75; Mr 14:53-54, 66-72; Jn 18:12-18, 25-27)
54 Arrestaron a Jesús y lo llevaron a casa del sumo sacerdote. Pedro los siguió a cierta distancia. 55 Encendieron un fuego en medio del patio y se sentaron alrededor. Pedro se sentó con ellos. 56 Una sierva vio a Pedro sentado allí. Lo pudo ver por la luz del fuego, lo miró muy de cerca y dijo:
—Este hombre también estaba con él.
57 Pero Pedro lo negó:
—Mujer, yo no lo conozco.
58 Un poco más tarde alguien vio a Pedro y dijo:
—Tú también eres de ellos.
Pero Pedro dijo:
—¡No, hombre, no lo soy!
59 Pasó casi una hora y otro insistió:
—Es verdad, este hombre estaba con él, es de Galilea.
60 Pero Pedro dijo:
—¡Hombre, no sé de qué estás hablando!
En ese momento, mientras Pedro todavía estaba hablando, cantó el gallo. 61 Entonces el Señor se dio vuelta y miró a Pedro a la cara. Pedro recordó lo que el Señor le había dicho: «Antes de que el gallo cante esta noche, me negarás tres veces». 62 Entonces Pedro salió de allí y lloró amargamente.
Se burlan de Jesús
(Mt 26:67-68; Mr 14:65)
63 Los hombres que estaban vigilando a Jesús se burlaban de él y lo azotaban. 64 Le vendaron los ojos, y le decían:
—¡Demuéstranos que eres profeta, dinos quién te pegó!
65 Y le gritaban muchos otros insultos.
Jesús ante el Consejo
(Mt 26:59-66; Mr 14:55-64; Jn 18:19-24)
66 Cuando amaneció, los ancianos líderes del pueblo, los jefes de los sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley vinieron todos juntos. Llevaron a Jesús ante el Consejo, 67 y le preguntaron:
—Si eres el Mesías, dínoslo.
Jesús les dijo:
—Si les digo que soy el Mesías, ustedes no me creerán. 68 Y si les pregunto, no me responderán. 69 Pero desde este momento el Hijo del hombre se sentará a la derecha de Dios Todopoderoso.
70 Todos dijeron:
—¿Entonces tú eres el Hijo de Dios?
Jesús les dijo:
—Sí yo soy. No lo niego, ustedes mismos lo dicen.
71 Entonces dijeron:
—¿Para qué necesitamos más testigos? ¡Lo hemos escuchado de su propia boca!
Luke 22
King James Version
22 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.
5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.
9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?
10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.
11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:
18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.
19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.
22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!
23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.
26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.
27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.
29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;
30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.
37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.
38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,
42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.
43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.
44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,
46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?
53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
54 Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.
57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.
60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.
64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?
65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.
66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,
67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
68 And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.
69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.
70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.
71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
Luke 22
New King James Version
The Plot to Kill Jesus(A)
22 Now (B)the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called Passover. 2 And (C)the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.
3 (D)Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the (E)twelve. 4 So he went his way and conferred with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them. 5 And they were glad, and (F)agreed to give him money. 6 So he promised and sought opportunity to (G)betray Him to them in the absence of the multitude.
Jesus and His Disciples Prepare the Passover
7 (H)Then came the Day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be [a]killed. 8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”
9 So they said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare?”
10 And He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house which he enters. 11 Then you shall say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?” ’ 12 Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room; there make ready.”
13 So they went and (I)found it just as He had said to them, and they prepared the Passover.
Jesus Institutes the Lord’s Supper
14 (J)When the hour had come, He sat down, and the [b]twelve apostles with Him. 15 Then He said to them, “With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; 16 for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it (K)until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
17 Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; 18 for (L)I say to you, [c]I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 (M)And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My (N)body which is given for you; (O)do this in remembrance of Me.”
20 Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, (P)“This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you. 21 (Q)But behold, the hand of My betrayer is with Me on the table. 22 (R)And truly the Son of Man goes (S)as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”
23 (T)Then they began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.
The Disciples Argue About Greatness
24 (U)Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest. 25 (V)And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26 (W)But not so among you; on the contrary, (X)he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves. 27 (Y)For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet (Z)I am among you as the One who serves.
28 “But you are those who have continued with Me in (AA)My trials. 29 And (AB)I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me, 30 that (AC)you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, (AD)and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(AE)
31 [d]And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, (AF)Satan has asked for you, that he may (AG)sift you as wheat. 32 But (AH)I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, (AI)strengthen your brethren.”
33 But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.”
34 (AJ)Then He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.”
Supplies for the Road
35 (AK)And He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?”
So they said, “Nothing.”
36 Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. 37 For I say to you that this which is written must still be [e]accomplished in Me: (AL)‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”
38 So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.”
And He said to them, “It is enough.”
The Prayer in the Garden(AM)
39 (AN)Coming out, (AO)He went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him. 40 (AP)When He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
41 (AQ)And He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless (AR)not My will, but Yours, be done.” 43 [f]Then (AS)an angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him. 44 (AT)And being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
45 When He rose up from prayer, and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow. 46 Then He said to them, “Why (AU)do you sleep? Rise and (AV)pray, lest you enter into temptation.”
Betrayal and Arrest in Gethsemane(AW)
47 And while He was still speaking, (AX)behold, a multitude; and he who was called (AY)Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to Jesus to kiss Him. 48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a (AZ)kiss?”
49 When those around Him saw what was going to happen, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” 50 And (BA)one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered and said, “Permit even this.” And He touched his ear and healed him.
52 (BB)Then Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and the elders who had come to Him, “Have you come out, as against a (BC)robber, with swords and clubs? 53 When I was with you daily in the (BD)temple, you did not try to seize Me. But this is your (BE)hour, and the power of darkness.”
Peter Denies Jesus, and Weeps Bitterly(BF)
54 (BG)Having arrested Him, they led Him and brought Him into the high priest’s house. (BH)But Peter followed at a distance. 55 (BI)Now when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them. 56 And a certain servant girl, seeing him as he sat by the fire, looked intently at him and said, “This man was also with Him.”
57 But he denied [g]Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”
58 (BJ)And after a little while another saw him and said, “You also are of them.”
But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”
59 (BK)Then after about an hour had passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Surely this fellow also was with Him, for he is a (BL)Galilean.”
60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying!”
Immediately, while he was still speaking, [h]the rooster crowed. 61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then (BM)Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had said to him, (BN)“Before the rooster [i]crows, you will deny Me three times.” 62 So Peter went out and wept bitterly.
Jesus Mocked and Beaten(BO)
63 (BP)Now the men who held Jesus mocked Him and (BQ)beat Him. 64 [j]And having blindfolded Him, they (BR)struck Him on the face and asked Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck You?” 65 And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.
Jesus Faces the Sanhedrin(BS)
66 (BT)As soon as it was day, (BU)the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him into their council, saying, 67 (BV)“If You are the Christ, tell us.”
But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will (BW)by no means believe. 68 And if I [k]also ask you, you will by no means answer [l]Me or let Me go. 69 (BX)Hereafter the Son of Man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.”
70 Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?”
So He said to them, (BY)“You rightly say that I am.”
71 (BZ)And they said, “What further testimony do we need? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth.”
