路加福音 22
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Traditional)
猶大出賣耶穌
22 除酵節,又名逾越節,快到了。 2 祭司長和律法教師因為害怕百姓,便密謀如何殺害耶穌。 3 這時,撒旦進入加略人猶大的心,這人原是十二使徒之一。 4 他去見祭司長和聖殿護衛長,商議如何把耶穌出賣給他們, 5 他們喜出望外,答應給猶大一筆酬金。 6 猶大同意了,便伺機找百姓不在的場合將耶穌交給他們。
最後的晚餐
7 除酵節到了,那天要宰殺逾越羊羔。 8 耶穌差派彼得和約翰出去,說:「你們為我們準備逾越節吃的晚餐。」
9 他們問:「你要我們到哪裡去預備呢?」
10 耶穌回答說:「你們進城的時候,一個男子會扛著一瓶水迎面走來,你們要跟著他,他進哪所房子,你們也進去, 11 對房子的主人說,『老師問你客房在哪裡,祂要和門徒在裡面吃逾越節的晚餐。』 12 那主人會帶你們到樓上一間佈置整齊的大房間,你們就在那裡預備吧。」
13 他們進了城,所遇見的果然和耶穌所說的一樣。他們便在那裡預備逾越節的晚餐。
設立聖餐
14 晚餐時,耶穌和使徒們一同坐席。 15 耶穌對他們說:「我一直盼望在受難之前和你們同吃這個逾越節的宴席。 16 我告訴你們,在這宴席成就在上帝的國度之前,我不會再吃這宴席了。」
17 祂接過杯來,祝謝後,說:「你們拿去分著喝吧。 18 我告訴你們,在上帝的國降臨之前,我不會再喝這葡萄酒了。」
19 接著,祂拿起餅來,祝謝後,掰開遞給他們,說:「這是我為你們犧牲的身體,你們今後也要這樣做,以紀念我。」
20 飯後,祂又舉起杯來,說:「這杯是用我的血立的新約,這血是為你們流的。
21 「但是看啊,那出賣我之人的手和我的手都在桌子上。 22 按照所定的,人子要死去,但那出賣人子的人有禍了!」 23 他們開始彼此追問誰會出賣耶穌。
誰最偉大
24 門徒又開始爭論他們當中誰最偉大。 25 耶穌對他們說:「外族人有君王統治他們,那些統治者被稱為恩主, 26 但你們不可這樣。相反,你們中間地位最高的,要像最卑微的;做首領的,要像服侍人的。 27 坐著吃飯的和伺候的哪個地位高呢?難道不是坐著的那個嗎?然而,我在你們當中是服侍人的。
28 「在我患難之時,你們一直在我身邊, 29 所以,我父怎樣將國賜給我,我也照樣將國賜給你們, 30 使你們在我的國中和我一同坐席,並且坐在寶座上審判以色列的十二個支派。」
預言彼得不認主
31 耶穌說:「西門!西門!撒旦已經要求像篩麥子一樣篩你們, 32 但我已經為你禱告了,叫你不至於失去信心。你回頭以後,要讓你的弟兄剛強。」
33 西門·彼得說:「主啊,我願意和你一起坐牢,一起受死!」
34 耶穌說:「彼得,我告訴你,明早雞叫之前,你會三次不認我。」
35 耶穌又問門徒:「我派你們出去的時候,無錢袋、背包和鞋子,你們有任何缺乏嗎?」
他們答道:「沒有。」
36 耶穌說:「但現在如果有錢袋或背包,都要帶著;如果沒有刀劍,要賣掉衣服買刀劍。 37 我告訴你們,『祂要被列在罪犯中』這句經文必在我身上應驗,因為聖經上有關我的事情快要實現了。」
38 他們說:「主啊,請看,這裡有兩把刀。」耶穌說:「夠了。」
橄欖山上的禱告
39 耶穌離開,像往常一樣前往橄欖山,門徒也跟去了。 40 到了山上,祂對門徒說:「你們要禱告,以免陷入誘惑!」
41 然後,祂獨自走到離門徒約有扔一塊石頭那麼遠的地方跪下禱告: 42 「父啊,若你願意,求你撤去此杯,然而,願你的旨意成就,而非我的意願。」 43 有一位從天上來的天使向祂顯現,給祂加添力量。
44 祂心中極其悲痛,禱告更懇切,汗珠如血滴在地上。
45 祂禱告完後,便起身回到門徒那裡,看見他們因憂愁而疲憊地睡著了, 46 就說:「你們為什麼睡覺呢?要起來禱告,以免陷入誘惑!」
耶穌被捕
47 耶穌還在說話的時候,十二使徒中的猶大已帶著一群人趕到,他上前親吻耶穌。 48 耶穌對他說:「猶大,你用親吻的暗號來出賣人子嗎?」
49 跟隨耶穌的人見他們來勢洶洶,就說:「主啊,我們該拔刀抵抗嗎?」 50 其中一人拔刀朝大祭司的奴僕砍過去,削掉了他的右耳。
51 耶穌卻說:「住手!夠了!」於是祂摸那奴僕的耳朵,治好了他, 52 然後對前來抓祂的祭司長、聖殿護衛長和長老說:「你們像對付強盜一樣拿著刀棍來抓我嗎? 53 我天天和你們一起在聖殿裡,你們沒有抓我。但現在正是黑暗當權、你們得勢的時候了!」
彼得不認主
54 他們把耶穌押到大祭司的府第。彼得遠遠地跟在後面。
55 他們在庭院當中生起了火,圍坐取暖,彼得也坐在他們中間。 56 有個婢女看見彼得坐在火堆邊,打量他一番後,說:「這人是與耶穌一夥的!」
57 彼得卻否認說:「你這女子,我不認識祂。」
58 過了一會兒,又有個人看見了彼得,就說:「你也是跟他們一夥的!」
彼得說:「你這人,我不是!」
59 大約一小時之後,又有人指著彼得肯定地說:「這人確實是和耶穌一夥的,因為他也是加利利人。」
60 彼得說:「你這人,我不知道你在說什麼!」話才出口,雞就叫了。
61 這時,主轉過頭來望著彼得,彼得想起主對他說的話:「明早雞叫之前,你會三次不認我。」 62 他就到外面,痛哭起來。
在公會受審
63 看守耶穌的人嘲弄祂,毆打祂, 64 蒙住祂的眼睛,對祂說:「說預言吧!是誰在打你?」 65 還說了許多侮辱祂的話。
66 天亮後,民間的長老、祭司長和律法教師聚在一起,把耶穌押到他們的公會, 67 對祂說:「如果你是基督,就告訴我們。」
耶穌說:「即使我告訴你們,你們也不會相信。 68 如果我問你們,你們也不會回答。 69 但從今以後,人子要坐在全能上帝的右邊。」
70 他們都問:「那麼,你是上帝的兒子嗎?」耶穌回答說:「你們說我是。」
71 他們說:「我們還需要什麼見證呢?我們已經聽見祂自己說的了。」
Luke 22
Revised Geneva Translation
22 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near (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 Satan entered into Judas (who was called Iscariot and was among the number of the twelve).
4 And he went his way and discussed with the chief priests and captains how he might betray Him to them.
5 So they were glad and agreed to give him money.
6 And he consented and sought opportunity to betray Him to them when the people were away.
7 Then the Day of Unleavened Bread came (when the Passover must be sacrificed).
8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.”
9 And they said to Him, “Where would You have us prepare it?”
10 Then He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man bearing a pitcher of water shall meet you. Follow him into the house where he enters.
11 “And say to the good man of the house, ‘The Master says to you, “Where is the lodging where I shall eat My Passover with My disciples?”’
12 “Then he will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make it ready there.”
13 So they went and found as He had said to them. And they made ready the Passover.
14 And when the hour had come, He sat down (and the twelve Apostles with Him).
15 Then He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
16 “For I say to you that I will not eat of it again 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 that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the Kingdom of God comes.”
19 And He took bread. And when He had given thanks, He broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, which is given for you. Do this in the remembrance of Me.”
20 Likewise, after supper, He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the New Testament in My blood, which is shed for you.
21 “Still, the hand of him who betrays Me is with Me at the table.
22 “And truly the Son of Man goes as it is appointed. But woe to that man by whom He is betrayed.”
23 Then they began to inquire among themselves about which one it could be who would do that.
24 And there also arose among them a dispute about which one was thought to be the greatest.
25 But He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles reign over them. And those who bear rule over them are called benefactors.
26 “But you shall not be so. But let the greatest among you be as the least; and the chief as he who serves.
27 “For who is greater, the one who sits at table, or the one who serves? Is not the one who sits at table? And I am among you as one who serves.
28 “And you are those who have continued with Me in My trials.
29 “Therefore, I appoint to 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 on seats and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 And the Lord said, “Simon. Simon, behold! Satan has asked for you, to sift you as wheat.
32 “But I have prayed for you, that your faith does not fail. Therefore, when you have repented, strengthen your brothers.”
33 And he said to Him. “Lord, I am ready to go with You into prison, and to death!”
34 But He said, “I tell you, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before you have thrice denied that you knew Me.”
35 And He said to them, “When I sent you without bag and purse and shoes, did you lack anything?” And they said, “Nothing.”
36 Then He said to them, “But now he who has a bag, let him take it, and likewise a purse. And he who has none, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword.
37 “For I say to you that the same which is written must still be performed in Me: ‘He was numbered with the wicked.’ For doubtless those things which are written of Me have an end.”
38 And they said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”
39 And He came out and went to the mount of Olives (as was His custom). And His disciples also followed Him.
40 And when He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray, lest you enter into trial.”
41 And He was drawn aside from them (about a stone’s cast) and kneeled down and prayed,
42 saying, “Father. If You will, take away this cup from Me. Nevertheless, not My will. But Yours be done.”
43 And an angel from Heaven appeared to Him, to comfort Him.
44 But being in an agony, He prayed more earnestly. 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 asleep from sorrow.
46 And He said to them, “Why do you sleep?! Rise and pray, lest you enter into trial.”
47 And while He was still speaking, a crowd appeared. And he who was called Judas (one of the twelve) went before them and came near to Jesus to kiss Him.
48 And Jesus said to him, “Judas, you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 Now, when those who were around Him saw what would follow, they said to Him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”
50 And one of them struck a servant of the High Priest; and struck off his right ear.
51 Then Jesus answered, and said, “Enough!” And He touched his ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the Temple, and the elders who had come to Him, “Have you come out as for a thief, with swords and clubs?
53 “When I was with you daily in the Temple, you did not stretch forth hands against Me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness!”
54 Then they took Him, and led Him, and brought Him to the High Priest’s house. And Peter followed at a distance.
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter also sat down among them.
56 And a certain maid saw him as he sat by the fire and, having looked at him intently, said, “This man was also with Him!”
57 But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him!”
58 And after a little while, another saw him, and said, “You are also one of them!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”
59 And about an hour after that, another affirmed, saying, “Truly, this man was also with Him! For he is also a Galilean!”
60 And Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about!” And immediately while he was still speaking, the cock crew.
61 Then the Lord turned back and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the Word of the Lord; how He had said to him, “Before the cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.”
62 And Peter went out and wept bitterly.
63 And the men who held Jesus mocked Him and struck Him.
64 And when they had blindfolded Him, they struck Him on the face, and asked Him, saying, “Prophesy who it is that struck You!”
65 And they blasphemously spoke many other things 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,
67 saying, “Are You the Christ? Tell us!” And He said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe it.
68 “And also, if I ask you, you will not answer Me, nor let Me go.
69 “From now on, the Son of Man shall sit at the right hand of the power of God.
70 Then they all said, “Are You, then, the Son of God?!” And He said to them, “You say that I am.”
71 Then they said, “What need do we have of any further witness? For we ourselves have heard it from His own mouth!”
Luke 22
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
22 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread was drawing near, which is called the Passover.
2 And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to do away with [Jesus], for they feared the people.
3 But [then] Satan entered into Judas, called Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve [apostles].
4 And he went away and discussed with the chief priests and captains how he might betray Him and deliver Him up to them.
5 And they were delighted and pledged [themselves] to give him money.
6 So he agreed [to this], and sought an opportunity to betray Him to them [without an uprising] in the absence of the throng.
7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover [lamb] had to be slain.(A)
8 So Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare for us the Passover meal, that we may eat it.
9 They said to Him, Where do You want us to prepare [it]?
10 He said to them, Behold, when you have gone into the city, a man carrying an earthen jug or pitcher of water will meet you; follow him into the house which he enters,
11 And say to the master of the house, The Teacher asks you, Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover [meal] with My disciples?
12 And he will show you a large room upstairs, furnished [with carpets and with couches properly spread]; there make [your] preparations.
13 And they went and found it [just] as He had said to them; and they made ready the Passover [supper].
14 And when the hour came, [Jesus] reclined at table, and the apostles with Him.
15 And He said to them, I have earnestly and intensely desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;
16 For I say to you, I shall eat it no more until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
17 And He took a cup, and when He had given thanks, He said, Take this and divide and distribute it among yourselves;
18 For I say to you that from now on I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine at all until the kingdom of God comes.
19 Then He took a loaf [of bread], and when He had given thanks, He broke [it] and gave it to them saying, This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.
20 And in like manner, He took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament or covenant [ratified] in My blood, which is shed (poured out) for you.
21 But, behold, the hand of him who [a]is now engaged in betraying Me is with Me on the table.(B)
22 For the Son of Man is going as it has been determined and appointed, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed and delivered up!
23 And they began to inquire among themselves which of them it was who was about to do this.(C)
24 Now [b]an eager contention arose among them [as to] which of them was considered and reputed to be the greatest.
25 But Jesus said to them, The kings of the Gentiles [c]are deified by them and exercise lordship [[d]ruling as emperor-gods] over them; and those in authority over them are called benefactors and well-doers.
26 But this is not to be so with you; on the contrary, let him who is the greatest among you become like the youngest, and him who is the chief and leader like one who serves.
27 For who is the greater, the one who reclines at table (the master), or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am in your midst as One Who serves.
28 And you are those who have remained [throughout] and persevered with Me in My trials;
29 And as My Father has appointed a kingdom and conferred it on Me, so do I confer on you [the privilege and decree],
30 That you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31 Simon, Simon (Peter), listen! Satan [e]has asked excessively that [all of] you be given up to him [out of the power and keeping of God], that he might sift [all of] you like grain,(D)
32 But I have prayed especially for you [Peter], that your [own] faith may not fail; and when you yourself have turned again, strengthen and establish your brethren.
33 And [Simon Peter] said to Him, Lord, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death.
34 But Jesus said, I tell you, Peter, before a [single] cock shall crow this day, you will three times [utterly] deny that you know Me.
35 And He said to them, When I sent you out with no purse or [provision] bag or sandals, did you lack anything? They answered, Nothing!
36 Then He said to them, But now let him who has a purse take it, and also [his provision] bag; and let him who has no sword sell his mantle and buy a sword.
37 For I tell you that this Scripture must yet be fulfilled in Me: And He was counted and classed among the wicked (the outlaws, the criminals); for what is written about Me has its fulfillment [has reached its end and is finally settled].(E)
38 And they said, Look, Lord! Here are two swords. And He said to them, It is enough.
39 And He came out and went, as was His habit, to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples also followed Him.
40 And when He came to the place, He said to them, Pray that you may not [at all] enter into temptation.
41 And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw and knelt down and prayed,
42 Saying, Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me; yet not My will, but [[f]always] Yours be done.
43 And there appeared to Him an angel from heaven, strengthening Him in spirit.
44 And being in an agony [of mind], He prayed [all the] more earnestly and intently, and His sweat became like great [g]clots of blood dropping down upon the ground.
45 And when He got up from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from grief,
46 And He said to them, Why do you sleep? Get up and pray that you may not enter [at all] into temptation.
47 And while He was still speaking, behold, there came a crowd, and the man called Judas, one of the Twelve [apostles], was going before [leading] them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss Him,
48 But Jesus said to him, Judas! Would you betray and deliver up the Son of Man with a kiss?
49 And when those who were around Him saw what was about to happen, they said, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?
50 And one of them struck the bond servant of the high priest and cut off his ear, the right one.
51 But Jesus said, Permit [h]them to go so far [as to seize Me]. And He touched the [i]little (insignificant) ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to those who had come out against Him—the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders [of the Sanhedrin]—Have you come out with swords and clubs as [you would] against a robber?
53 When I was with you day after day in the temple [[j]enclosure], you did not stretch forth [your] hands against Me. But this is your hour—and the power [which] darkness [gives you has its way].
54 Then they seized Him and led Him away, bringing Him into the house of the high priest. Peter was following at a distance.
55 And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and were seated together, Peter sat among them.
56 Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight and gazing [intently] at him, said, This man too was with [k]Him.
57 But he denied it and said, Woman, I do not know Him!
58 And a little later someone else saw him and said, You are one of them also. But Peter said, Man, I am not!
59 And when about an hour more had elapsed, still another emphatically insisted, It is the truth that this man also was with Him, for he too is a Galilean!
60 But Peter said, Man, I do not know what you are talking about. And instantly, while he was still speaking, the cock crowed.
61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter recalled the Lord’s words, how He had told him, Before the cock crows today, you will deny Me thrice.
62 And he went out and wept bitterly [that is, with painfully moving grief].
63 Now the men who had Jesus in custody treated Him with contempt and scoffed at and ridiculed Him and beat Him;
64 They blindfolded Him also and asked Him, Prophesy! Who is it that struck [l]You?
65 And they said many other evil and slanderous and insulting words against Him, reviling Him.
66 As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led Him into their council (the Sanhedrin), and they said,
67 If You are the Christ (the Messiah), tell us. But He said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe (trust in, cleave to, and rely on what I say),
68 And if I question you, you will not answer.
69 But hereafter (from this time on), the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of the power of God.(F)
70 And they all said, You are the Son of God, then? And He said to them, [m]It is just as you say; I Am.
71 And they said, What further evidence do we need? For we have heard [it] ourselves from His own mouth!

New International Version
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)

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.”
