Lucas 22
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
Traición de Judas
22 (A)Se acercaba la Fiesta de los Panes sin Levadura[a], llamada la Pascua(B). 2 Y los principales sacerdotes y los escribas buscaban cómo dar muerte a Jesús(C), pero temían al pueblo.
3 (D)Entonces Satanás entró en Judas, llamado Iscariote(E), que pertenecía al[b] número de los doce apóstoles. 4 Y él fue y discutió con los principales sacerdotes y con los oficiales(F) sobre cómo entregarles a Jesús. 5 Ellos se alegraron y convinieron en darle dinero. 6 Él aceptó, y buscaba una oportunidad para entregar a Jesús sin hacer un escándalo[c].
Preparación de la Pascua
7 (G)Llegó el día de la Fiesta de los Panes sin Levadura[d] en que debía sacrificarse el cordero de la Pascua(H). 8 Entonces Jesús envió a Pedro y a Juan(I), diciéndoles: «Vayan y preparen la Pascua para nosotros, para que la comamos». 9 «¿Dónde deseas que la preparemos?», le preguntaron.
10 Y Él les respondió: «Miren, al entrar en la ciudad, les saldrá al encuentro un hombre que lleva un cántaro de agua; síganlo a la casa donde entre. 11 Y dirán al dueño de la casa: “El Maestro te dice: ‘¿Dónde está la habitación, en la cual pueda comer la Pascua con Mis discípulos?’”. 12 Entonces él les mostrará un gran aposento alto, dispuesto; prepárenla allí». 13 Ellos fueron y encontraron todo tal como Él les había dicho; y prepararon la Pascua.
Institución de la Cena del Señor
14 Cuando llegó la hora, Jesús se sentó[e] a la mesa, y con Él los apóstoles(J), 15 y les dijo: «Intensamente he deseado comer esta Pascua con ustedes antes de padecer; 16 porque les digo que nunca más volveré a comerla hasta que se cumpla en el reino de Dios(K)».
17 (L)Y tomando una copa, después de haber dado gracias, dijo: «Tomen esto y repártanlo entre ustedes(M); 18 porque les digo que de ahora en adelante no beberé del fruto de la vid, hasta que venga el reino de Dios(N)».
19 Y tomando el pan, después de haber dado gracias, lo partió(O), y les dio, diciendo: «Esto es Mi cuerpo que por ustedes es dado; hagan esto en memoria de Mí». 20 De la misma manera tomó la copa después de haber cenado, diciendo: «Esta copa es el nuevo pacto(P)en Mi sangre(Q), que es derramada por ustedes.
21 »(R) Pero, vean, la mano del que me entrega está junto a Mí en la mesa. 22 Porque en verdad, el Hijo del Hombre va según se ha determinado(S); pero ¡ay de aquel hombre por quien Él es entregado!». 23 Entonces ellos comenzaron a discutir entre sí quién de ellos sería el que iba a hacer esto.
Los discípulos discuten sobre quién es el mayor
24 Surgió también entre ellos una discusión, sobre cuál de ellos debía ser considerado como el mayor(T).
25 (U)Y Jesús les dijo: «Los reyes de los gentiles se enseñorean de ellos; y los que tienen autoridad sobre ellos son llamados bienhechores. 26 Pero no es así con ustedes; antes, el mayor entre ustedes hágase como el menor[f](V), y el que dirige como el que sirve(W). 27 Porque, ¿cuál es mayor, el que se sienta[g]a la mesa, o el que sirve(X)? ¿No lo es el que se sienta[h]a la mesa? Sin embargo, entre ustedes Yo soy como el que sirve(Y).
28 »Ustedes son los que han permanecido junto a Mí en Mis pruebas(Z) ; 29 y así como Mi Padre me ha otorgado un reino(AA), Yo les otorgo 30 que coman(AB)y beban a Mi mesa en Mi reino(AC); y se sentarán en tronos juzgando a las doce tribus de Israel(AD).
Jesús predice la negación de Pedro
31 »Simón, Simón, mira que Satanás los ha reclamado a ustedes(AE) para zarandearlos(AF) como a trigo; 32 pero Yo he rogado por ti(AG)para que tu fe no falle; y tú, una vez que hayas regresado, fortalece a tus hermanos(AH)».
33 (AI)Y Pedro le dijo: «Señor, estoy dispuesto a ir adonde vayas, tanto a la cárcel como a la muerte». 34 Pero Jesús le dijo: «Te digo, Pedro, que el gallo no cantará hoy hasta que tú hayas negado tres veces que me conoces».
Bolsa, alforja y espada
35 Y Él les dijo a todos: «Cuando los envié sin bolsa, ni alforja, ni sandalias(AJ), ¿acaso les faltó algo?». «No, nada», contestaron ellos. 36 Entonces les dijo: «Pero ahora, el que tenga una bolsa, que la lleve consigo, de la misma manera también una alforja, y el que no tenga espada, venda su manto y compre una. 37 Porque les digo que es necesario que en Mí se cumpla esto que está escrito: “Y con los transgresores fue contado(AK)”; pues ciertamente, lo que se refiere(AL)a Mí, tiene su cumplimiento».
38 Y ellos dijeron: «Señor, aquí hay dos espadas(AM)». «Es suficiente», les respondió.
Jesús en Getsemaní
39 Saliendo Jesús, se encaminó, como de costumbre(AN), hacia el monte de los Olivos(AO); y los discípulos también lo siguieron. 40 (AP)Cuando llegó al lugar, les dijo: «Oren para que no entren en tentación(AQ)».
41 Y se apartó de ellos como a un tiro de piedra, y poniéndose de rodillas(AR), oraba, 42 diciendo: «Padre, si es Tu voluntad, aparta de Mí esta copa(AS); pero no se haga Mi voluntad, sino la Tuya(AT)». 43 [i]Entonces se apareció un ángel del cielo, que lo fortalecía(AU). 44 Y estando en agonía, oraba con mucho fervor(AV); y Su sudor se volvió como gruesas gotas de sangre, que caían sobre la tierra.
45 Cuando se levantó de orar, fue a los discípulos y los halló dormidos a causa de la tristeza, 46 y les dijo: «¿Por qué duermen? Levántense y oren para que no entren en tentación(AW)».
Arresto de Jesús
47 (AX)Mientras todavía estaba Él hablando, llegó una multitud, y el que se llamaba Judas, uno de los doce apóstoles, iba delante de ellos, y se acercó para besar a Jesús. 48 Pero Jesús le dijo: «Judas, ¿con un beso entregas al Hijo del Hombre?». 49 Cuando los que rodeaban a Jesús vieron lo que iba a suceder, dijeron: «Señor, ¿heriremos a espada(AY)?».
50 Y uno de ellos hirió al siervo del sumo sacerdote y le cortó[j] la oreja derecha. 51 Pero Jesús dijo: «¡Deténganse! Basta de esto». Y[k] tocando la oreja al siervo, lo sanó. 52 Entonces Jesús dijo a los principales sacerdotes, a los oficiales del templo(AZ) y a los ancianos que habían venido contra Él: «¿Cómo contra un ladrón han salido con espadas y palos(BA)? 53 Cuando estaba con ustedes cada día en el templo, no me echaron mano; pero esta hora y el poder de las tinieblas son de ustedes[l]».
La negación de Pedro
54 Después de arrestar a Jesús, se lo llevaron y lo condujeron a la casa del sumo sacerdote(BB); y Pedro los seguía de lejos(BC). 55 (BD)Después que encendieron una hoguera en medio del patio, y de sentarse juntos, Pedro se sentó entre ellos(BE). 56 Una sirvienta, al verlo sentado junto a la lumbre, fijándose en él detenidamente, dijo: «También este estaba con Él». 57 Pero él lo negó, diciendo: «Mujer, yo no lo conozco».
58 Un poco después, otro al verlo, dijo: «¡Tú también eres uno de ellos(BF)!». «¡Hombre, no es cierto[m]!», le dijo Pedro. 59 Pasada como una hora, otro insistía, diciendo: «Ciertamente este también estaba con Él, pues él también es galileo(BG)». 60 Pero Pedro dijo: «Hombre, yo no sé de qué hablas». Al instante, estando él todavía hablando, cantó un gallo.
61 El Señor(BH) se volvió y miró a Pedro. Entonces Pedro recordó la palabra del Señor, de cómo le había dicho: «Antes que el gallo cante hoy, me negarás tres veces(BI)». 62 Y saliendo fuera, lloró amargamente.
Jesús escarnecido
63 Los hombres que tenían a Jesús bajo custodia, se burlaban de Él y lo golpeaban(BJ); 64 Le vendaron los ojos, y le preguntaban: «Adivina[n], ¿quién es el que te ha golpeado(BK)?». 65 También decían muchas otras cosas contra Él, blasfemando(BL).
Jesús ante el Concilio
66 Cuando se hizo de día, se reunió el Concilio[o] de los ancianos(BM) del pueblo, tanto los principales sacerdotes como los escribas, y llevaron a Jesús(BN) ante su Concilio(BO), diciendo: 67 «Si Tú eres el Cristo[p](BP), dínoslo». Pero Él les dijo: «Si se los digo, no creerán; 68 y si les pregunto, no responderán. 69 Pero de ahora en adelante, el Hijo del Hombre estará sentado a la diestra del poder de Dios(BQ)».
70 Dijeron todos: «Entonces, ¿Tú eres el Hijo de Dios(BR)?». «Ustedes dicen que Yo soy(BS)», les respondió Jesús. 71 Y ellos dijeron: «¿Qué necesidad tenemos ya de testimonio? Pues nosotros mismos lo hemos oído de Su propia boca».

New Living Translation
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.”

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.”
