路加福音 22
Chinese Standard Bible (Simplified)
阴谋杀害耶稣
22 除酵节——又叫逾越节——快到了。 2 祭司长们和经文士们在图谋怎样能杀掉耶稣，因为他们怕民众。
3 那时，撒旦进入了那称为加略人的犹大里面。犹大算是十二使徒[a]中的一个。 4 他去跟祭司长们和守卫长们[b]商量怎样把耶稣交给他们。 5 他们就欢喜，并且说好要给他银钱。 6 犹大同意了，就开始找机会，要趁众人不在的时候，把耶稣交给他们。
预备逾越节的晚餐
7 除酵节的第一日到了，在这一天必须宰杀逾越节的羔羊。 8 耶稣差派彼得和约翰，说：“你们去为我们预备逾越节的晚餐，好让我们能吃上。”
9 他们问耶稣：“你要我们在哪里预备呢？”
10 耶稣对他们说：“看哪！你们进了城，会有一个人提着一罐水迎面而来，你们就跟着他，到他所进的那一家去， 11 对那家的主人说：‘老师问你：我与我的门徒们一起吃逾越节晚餐的客房在哪里呢？’ 12 他会给你们看楼上一间布置好的大房间，你们就在那里预备吧。”
13 他们去了，看到的正如耶稣对他们所说的。他们就预备了逾越节的晚餐。
第一次圣餐
14 时候一到，耶稣就坐席，十二[c]使徒也和他同坐。 15 耶稣对他们说：“我一直非常渴望在我受难之前，与你们一起吃这逾越节的晚餐。 16 我告诉你们：我绝不[d]吃这晚餐，直等到逾越节在神的国里得以成就。” 17 耶稣拿起杯来，祝谢了，说：“你们拿这个，大家分着喝。 18 我告诉你们：从今以后[e]我绝不喝这葡萄汁[f]，直到神的国来临。”
19 他又拿起饼来，祝谢了，掰开递给他们，说：“这是我的身体，为你们献上的；你们应当如此行，为的是记念我。”
20 晚餐后，他也照样拿起杯来，说：“这杯是用我的血所立的新约，为你们所流的。[g] 21 不过看哪，那卖我之人的手，与我的手一同在这桌子上， 22 因为人子确实要按照所决定的离去。不过出卖人子的那个人有祸了。”
23 于是他们开始彼此议论，他们当中究竟是谁会做这事。
争论谁最大
24 门徒之间也起了争论：他们当中谁算是更大的。 25 耶稣对他们说：“外邦人有君王辖制他们，他们的掌权者被称为恩主。 26 但你们却不是这样；相反，你们当中谁更大，谁就该变得像年幼的那样；领头的，该像服事人的。 27 坐席的或服事的，到底哪一个更大呢？难道不是坐席的吗？然而我在你们中间，是像服事人的。 28 不过我在试炼当中，始终与我在一起的就是你们； 29 并且我把国度赐给你们，就像我父赐给了我那样， 30 使你们在我的国度里，在我的筵席上吃喝；并且坐在宝座上审判以色列的十二个支派。”
预言彼得不认主
31 主又说[h]：“西门，西门，你看，撒旦想要得着你们，要筛你们像筛麦子一样。 32 但是，我已经为你祈求，使你不失去信仰。所以当你回转过来的时候，要坚固你的弟兄们。”
33 可是彼得对耶稣说：“主啊，我预备好要与你一起去监狱、一起去死！”
34 耶稣却说：“彼得，我告诉你：今天鸡叫以前，你会三次否定认识我。”
钱包、行囊、刀
35 接着耶稣问他们：“我从前差派你们出去的时候，你们不带钱包、行囊、鞋子，你们缺少过什么没有？”
他们说：“没有。”
36 耶稣却对他们说：“但现在，有钱包的应当带着；同样，有行囊的也应当带着；没有刀的，应当卖掉自己的外衣去买一把。 37 我告诉你们：经上记着：‘他被列在不法之徒当中’[i]，这话必须在我身上成就，因为那有关我的事就要有个结局了。”
38 他们说：“主啊，你看，这里有两把刀。”
耶稣说：“实在够了。”
园中的祷告
39 耶稣出来，照他的习惯往橄榄山去，门徒们也跟着他。 40 到了那地方，耶稣对他们说：“你们要祷告，免得陷入试探。” 41 然后他抽出身，离他们约有扔一块石头的距离，跪下祷告， 42 说：“父啊，如果你愿意，请把这杯从我这里拿走吧！但不要成就我的意思，而要成就你的意思。”
43 有一位天使从天上向他显现，加添他的力量。 44 耶稣在极大的痛苦中，祷告更加恳切；他的汗珠变得像大血滴，落在地上。[j] 45 祷告完了，他起身到门徒那里，看见他们因为忧伤都睡着了， 46 就对他们说：“你们为什么睡觉呢？起来祷告，免得陷入试探。”
犹大亲吻的暗号
47 耶稣还在说话的时候，忽然来了一群人。十二使徒中的一个，就是那称为犹大的，走在他们前头。他靠近耶稣，要亲吻他。 48 耶稣对他说：“犹大，你用亲吻礼来出卖人子吗？”
49 耶稣周围的人看到要发生的事，就说：“主啊，我们要用刀砍吗？” 50 其中一个人向大祭司的奴仆砍去，削掉了他的右耳。
51 耶稣应声说：“住手，到此为止！”然后摸一下那个人的耳朵，使他痊愈了。 52 耶稣对前来对付他的祭司长们、圣殿守卫长们和长老们说：“你们带着刀剑和棍棒出来，就像对付强盗那样吗？ 53 我天天在圣殿里与你们在一起的时候，你们不向我下手。不过现在是你们的时候了，是黑暗掌权的时候了！”
彼得不认主
54 他们抓住耶稣，把他带走，押到大祭司的家里。彼得远远地跟着。 55 他们在院子当中生了火，一起坐着。彼得也坐在他们中间。 56 有一个女仆看见彼得坐在火光中，就注视着他，说：“这个人也与他是一伙的。”
57 彼得却否认说：“你这个女人哪，我不认识他！”
58 过了一会儿，另一个人看见他，就说：“你也是与他们一伙的！”
彼得说：“你这个人哪，我不是！”
59 大约过了一个小时，又有一个人肯定地说：“这个人真的也是与他一伙的，因为他也是加利利人。”
60 彼得说：“你这个人哪，我不知道你在说什么！”他正说着的时候，鸡立时就叫了。 61 主转过身来注视彼得，彼得就想起主对他说过的话：“今天鸡叫以前，你会三次不认我。” 62 他就到外面去，痛哭起来。
被戏弄与鞭打
63 看守耶稣[k]的人戏弄他、殴打他， 64 又蒙住他的眼睛问他，[l]说：“你说预言吧！打你的是谁？” 65 他们还说了很多别的话辱骂他。
在议员面前受审
66 一到天亮，民间的长老议会，包括祭司长们和经文士们，就聚集在一起。他们把耶稣带到议会里， 67 说：“你如果是基督，就告诉我们吧。”
耶稣对他们说：“就算我告诉你们，你们也绝不会相信； 68 就算我问你们，你们也绝不会回答[m]。 69 但从今以后，人子要坐在全能神的右边。”
70 他们都说：“那么，你是神的儿子吗？”
耶稣对他们说：“是你们说的，我就是。”
71 他们说：“难道我们还需要什么证据吗？他亲口说的话，我们都亲耳听见了[n]。”

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.

New Matthew Bible
Christ is betrayed. They eat the Passover lamb. The institution of the sacrament. They dispute who should be greatest; he reproves them. He prays three times upon the mount. They seize him and bring him to the high priest’s house. Peter denies him three times, and they bring Jesus before the council.
22 The feast of sweet bread drew near, which is called the Passover. 2 And the high priests and scribes were seeking how to kill Jesus, but they feared the people. 3 Then Satan entered into Judas, whose surname was Iscariot (who was of the number of the twelve), 4 and he went his way and communed with the high priests and officers, how he might betray Jesus to them. 5 And they were glad, and promised to give him money. 6 And he accepted, and sought an opportunity to betray Jesus to them when the people were away.
7 Then came the day of sweet bread, when of necessity the Passover lamb must be offered. 8 And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare for us the Passover lamb so that we may eat. 9 They said to him, Where would you like us to prepare it? 10 And he said to them, When you have entered into the city, there a man bearing a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the same house that he enters in, 11 and say to the head of the house, The Master says to you, where is the guest chamber, where I may eat my Passover lamb with my disciples? 12 And he will show you a large upper room furnished. There make ready.
13 And they went and found things as he had said to them, and made ready the Passover lamb.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15 And he said to them, I have inwardly desired to eat this Passover lamb with you before I suffer. 16 For I say to you, henceforth I will not eat of it any more until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17 And he took the cup and gave thanks and said, Take this, and divide it among you. 18 For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God has come.
19 And he took bread, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you. This do in the remembrance of me. 20 Likewise also, when they had supped, he took the cup, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you. 21 Yet behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. 22 And the Son of man goes as it is appointed; but woe be to that man by whom he is betrayed.
23 And they began to enquire among themselves which of them it could be that would do that.
24 And there was a dispute among them, which of them should be taken for the greatest. 25 And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles reign over them, and those who bear rule over them are called gracious lords. 26 But you shall not be like this. Rather, he who is greatest among you shall be as the youngest, and he who is chief shall be as the servant. 27 For who is greater: he who sits at food, or he that serves? Is it not he who sits at food? But I am among you as he that serves. 28 And you are those who have stayed with me in my trials. 29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father has appointed to me, 30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit upon seats, and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold: Satan has desired you all, to sift you like wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And when you have turned back again, strengthen your brethren. 33 And Peter said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with you into prison, and to death. 34 And he said, I tell you, Peter, the cock will not crow this day till you have three times denied that you knew me.
35 And he said to them, When I sent you out without wallet or bag or shoes, did you lack anything? And they said, No. 36 And he said to them, But now, let him who has a wallet take it up, and likewise his bag. And he who has no sword, let him sell his coat and buy one. 37 For I say to you that that which is written must yet be performed in me: Even with the wicked was he numbered. For those things which are written of me have their fulfilment.
38 And they said, Lord, see, here are two swords.
And he said to them, It is enough.
39 And he came out and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives. And the disciples followed him. 40 And when he came to the place, he said to them, Pray, lest you fall into temptation. 41 And he went apart by himself, about a stone’s throw from them, and kneeled down and prayed, saying, 42 Father, if you will, withdraw this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours be fulfilled.
43 And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, comforting him. 44 And he was in an agony, and prayed somewhat longer. And his sweat was like drops of blood trickling down to the ground.
45 And he rose up from prayer and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow, 46 and said to them, Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you fall into temptation.
47 While he was yet speaking, behold, there came a band of men, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. And he pressed near to Jesus to kiss him. 48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?
49 When those who were with Jesus saw what would follow, they said to him, Lord, shall we smite with swords? 50 And one of them struck a servant of the most high priest, and cut off his right ear. 51 But Jesus answered and said, Let it come to this. And he touched the servant’s ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the high priests and officers of the temple, and the elders who had approached him, Have you come out as if to a thief, with swords and clubs? 53 When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth hands against me. But this is even your very hour, and the power of darkness.
54 Then they took him and led him, and brought him to the home of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off.
55 When they had kindled a fire in the centre courtyard of the palace and were sitting together, Peter also sat down among them. 56 And one of the servant girls saw him as he sat by the fire, and took a good look at him and said, This man was also with him. 57 Then he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. 58 And after a little while another saw him and said, You are also one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. 59 And about the space of an hour afterwards, another affirmed, saying, Surely this fellow was with him, for he is from Galilee. 60 And Peter said, Man, I don’t know what you are talking about.
And immediately, while he yet spoke, the cock crew. 61 And the Lord turned back and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the words of the Lord, how he said to him, Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times. 62 And Peter went out and wept bitterly.
63 And the men that stood about Jesus mocked him and beat him, 64 and blindfolded him, and struck his face. And they asked him, saying, Prophesy! Who it is that hit you? 65 And they said many other things despitefully against him.
66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the high priests and scribes came together, and they led him into their council, saying, 67 Are you the very Christ? Tell us.
And he said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe. 68 And also if I ask you, you will not answer me or let me go. 69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.
70 Then they all said, Are you then the Son of God?
He said to them, As you say, I am.
71 Then they said, Why do we need any further testimony? We ourselves have heard from 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.”
