⁴ [The ^[a]Servant of God says] The Lord God has given Me the tongue of a disciple and of one who is taught, that I should know how to speak a word in season to him who is weary. He wakens Me morning by morning, He wakens My ear to hear as a disciple [as one who is taught].

⁵ The Lord God has opened My ear, and I have not been rebellious or turned backward.

¹³ When Jesus heard it, He withdrew from there privately in a boat to a solitary place. But when the crowds heard of it, they followed Him [by land] on foot from the towns.

²³ And after He had dismissed the multitudes, He went up into the hills by Himself to pray. When it was evening, He was still there alone.

³⁵ And in the morning, long before daylight, He got up and went out to a ^[a]deserted place, and there He prayed.

⁴⁶ And after He had taken leave of them, He went off into the hills to pray.

¹⁶ But He Himself withdrew [in retirement] to the wilderness (desert) and prayed.

¹² Now in those days it occurred that He went up into a mountain to pray, and spent the whole night in prayer to God.

¹⁸ Now it occurred that as Jesus was praying privately, the disciples were with Him, and He asked them, Who do men say that I am?

⁴¹ And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw and knelt down and prayed,

⁴⁴ And being in an agony [of mind], He prayed [all the] more earnestly and intently, and His sweat became like great ^[a]clots of blood dropping down upon the ground.
