Lucas 22
Nueva Traducción Viviente
Judas acuerda traicionar a Jesús
22 Se acercaba el Festival de los Panes sin Levadura, también llamado Pascua. 2 Los principales sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley religiosa tramaban de qué manera matar a Jesús, pero tenían miedo de la reacción de la gente.
3 Entonces Satanás entró en Judas Iscariote, uno de los doce discípulos, 4 quien fue a ver a los principales sacerdotes y a los capitanes de la guardia del templo para hablar con ellos sobre la mejor manera de traicionar a Jesús. 5 Ellos quedaron complacidos y prometieron darle dinero. 6 Judas aceptó y comenzó a buscar una oportunidad para traicionar a Jesús de modo que ellos pudieran arrestarlo cuando las multitudes no estuvieran rodeándolo.
La última cena
7 Llegó el Festival de los Panes sin Levadura, cuando se sacrifica el cordero de la Pascua. 8 Jesús mandó que Pedro y Juan se adelantaran y les dijo:
—Vayan y preparen la cena de Pascua, para que podamos comerla juntos.
9 —¿Dónde quieres que la preparemos?—le preguntaron.
10 Él contestó:
—En cuanto entren en Jerusalén, les saldrá al encuentro un hombre que lleva un cántaro de agua. Síganlo. En la casa donde él entre, 11 díganle al dueño: “El Maestro pregunta: ¿Dónde está el cuarto de huéspedes en el que puedo comer la cena de Pascua con mis discípulos?”. 12 Él los llevará a un cuarto grande en el piso de arriba, que ya está listo. Allí deben preparar nuestra cena.
13 Ellos fueron a la ciudad y encontraron todo como Jesús les había dicho y allí prepararon la cena de Pascua.
14 Cuando llegó la hora, Jesús y los apóstoles se sentaron juntos a la mesa.[a] 15 Jesús dijo: «He tenido muchos deseos de comer esta Pascua con ustedes antes de que comiencen mis sufrimientos. 16 Pues ahora les digo que no volveré a comerla hasta que su significado se cumpla en el reino de Dios».
17 Luego tomó en sus manos una copa de vino y le dio gracias a Dios por ella. Entonces dijo: «Tomen esto y repártanlo entre ustedes. 18 Pues no volveré a beber vino hasta que venga el reino de Dios».
19 Tomó un poco de pan y dio gracias a Dios por él. Luego lo partió en trozos, lo dio a sus discípulos y dijo: «Esto es mi cuerpo, el cual es entregado por ustedes. Hagan esto en memoria de mí».
20 Después de la cena, tomó en sus manos otra copa de vino y dijo: «Esta copa es el nuevo pacto entre Dios y su pueblo, un acuerdo confirmado con mi sangre, la cual es derramada como sacrificio por ustedes.[b]
21 »Pero aquí en esta mesa, sentado entre nosotros como un amigo, está el hombre que me traicionará. 22 Pues está establecido que el Hijo del Hombre[c] tiene que morir. ¡Pero qué aflicción le espera a aquel que lo traiciona!». 23 Los discípulos comenzaron a preguntarse unos a otros quién sería capaz de hacer semejante cosa.
24 Después comenzaron a discutir quién sería el más importante entre ellos. 25 Jesús les dijo: «En este mundo, los reyes y los grandes hombres tratan a su pueblo con prepotencia; sin embargo, son llamados “amigos del pueblo”. 26 Pero entre ustedes será diferente. El más importante de ustedes deberá tomar el puesto más bajo, y el líder debe ser como un sirviente. 27 ¿Quién es más importante: el que se sienta a la mesa o el que la sirve? El que se sienta a la mesa, por supuesto. ¡Pero en este caso no!, pues yo estoy entre ustedes como uno que sirve.
28 »Ustedes han estado conmigo durante mis tiempos de prueba. 29 Así como mi Padre me concedió un reino, yo ahora les concedo el derecho 30 de comer y beber a mi mesa en mi reino, y se sentarán sobre tronos y juzgarán a las doce tribus de Israel.
Jesús predice la negación de Pedro
31 »Simón, Simón, Satanás ha pedido zarandear a cada uno de ustedes como si fueran trigo; 32 pero yo he rogado en oración por ti, Simón, para que tu fe no falle, de modo que cuando te arrepientas y vuelvas a mí fortalezcas a tus hermanos».
33 Pedro dijo:
—Señor, estoy dispuesto a ir a prisión contigo y aun a morir contigo.
34 Jesús le respondió:
—Pedro, déjame decirte algo. Mañana por la mañana, antes de que cante el gallo, negarás tres veces que me conoces.
35 Entonces Jesús les preguntó:
—Cuando los envié a predicar la Buena Noticia y no tenían dinero ni bolso de viaje ni otro par de sandalias, ¿les faltó algo?
—No—respondieron ellos.
36 —Pero ahora—les dijo—, tomen su dinero y un bolso de viaje; y si no tienen espada, ¡vendan su manto y compren una! 37 Pues ha llegado el tiempo en que se cumpla la siguiente profecía acerca de mí: “Fue contado entre los rebeldes”[d]. Así es, todo lo que los profetas escribieron acerca de mí se cumplirá.
38 —Mira Señor—le respondieron—, contamos con dos espadas entre nosotros.
—Es suficiente—les dijo.
Jesús ora en el monte de los Olivos
39 Luego, acompañado por sus discípulos, Jesús salió del cuarto en el piso de arriba y, como de costumbre, fue al monte de los Olivos. 40 Allí les dijo: «Oren para que no cedan a la tentación».
41 Se alejó a una distancia como de un tiro de piedra, se arrodilló y oró: 42 «Padre, si quieres, te pido que quites esta copa de sufrimiento de mí. Sin embargo, quiero que se haga tu voluntad, no la mía». 43 Entonces apareció un ángel del cielo y lo fortaleció. 44 Oró con más fervor, y estaba en tal agonía de espíritu que su sudor caía a tierra como grandes gotas de sangre.[e]
45 Finalmente se puso de pie y regresó adonde estaban sus discípulos, pero los encontró dormidos, exhaustos por la tristeza. 46 «¿Por qué duermen?—les preguntó—. Levántense y oren para que no cedan ante la tentación».
Traicionan y arrestan a Jesús
47 Mientras Jesús hablaba, se acercó una multitud, liderada por Judas, uno de los doce discípulos. Judas caminó hacia Jesús para saludarlo con un beso. 48 Entonces Jesús le dijo: «Judas, ¿con un beso traicionas al Hijo del Hombre?».
49 Cuando los otros discípulos vieron lo que estaba por suceder, exclamaron: «Señor, ¿peleamos? ¡Trajimos las espadas!». 50 Y uno de ellos hirió al esclavo del sumo sacerdote cortándole la oreja derecha.
51 Pero Jesús dijo: «Basta». Y tocó la oreja del hombre y lo sanó.
52 Entonces Jesús habló a los principales sacerdotes, a los capitanes de la guardia del templo y a los ancianos, que habían venido a buscarlo. «¿Acaso soy un peligroso revolucionario, para que vengan con espadas y palos para arrestarme? —les preguntó—. 53 ¿Por qué no me arrestaron en el templo? Estuve allí todos los días, pero este es el momento de ustedes, el tiempo en que reina el poder de la oscuridad».
Pedro niega a Jesús
54 Entonces lo arrestaron y lo llevaron a la casa del sumo sacerdote. Y Pedro los siguió de lejos. 55 Los guardias encendieron una fogata en medio del patio y se sentaron alrededor, y Pedro se sumó al grupo. 56 Una sirvienta lo vio a la luz de la fogata y comenzó a mirarlo fijamente. Por fin dijo: «Este hombre era uno de los seguidores de Jesús».
57 Pero Pedro lo negó: «¡Mujer, ni siquiera lo conozco!».
58 Después de un rato, alguien más lo vio y dijo:
—Seguramente tú eres uno de ellos.
—¡No, hombre, no lo soy!—contestó.
59 Alrededor de una hora más tarde, otra persona insistió: «Seguro este es uno de ellos porque también es galileo».
60 Pero Pedro dijo: «¡Hombre, no sé de qué hablas!». Inmediatamente, mientras aún hablaba, el gallo cantó.
61 En ese momento, el Señor se volvió y miró a Pedro. De repente, las palabras del Señor pasaron rápidamente por la mente de Pedro: «Mañana por la mañana, antes de que cante el gallo, negarás tres veces que me conoces». 62 Y Pedro salió del patio, llorando amargamente.
63 Los guardias que estaban a cargo de Jesús comenzaron a burlarse de él y a golpearlo. 64 Le vendaron los ojos y le decían: «¡Profetízanos! ¿Quién te golpeó esta vez?». 65 Y le lanzaban todo tipo de insultos.
Jesús ante el Concilio
66 Al amanecer, todos los ancianos del pueblo se reunieron, incluidos los principales sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley religiosa. Llevaron a Jesús ante el Concilio Supremo[f] 67 y le dijeron:
—Dinos, ¿eres tú el Mesías?
Él les respondió:
—Si lo dijera, no me creerían; 68 y si yo les hiciera una pregunta, ustedes no me la contestarían. 69 Sin embargo, desde ahora, el Hijo del Hombre estará sentado en el lugar de poder, a la derecha de Dios.[g]
70 Todos gritaron:
—¿Entonces afirmas que eres el Hijo de Dios?
Y él contestó:
—Ustedes dicen que lo soy.
71 «¿Para qué necesitamos otros testigos?—dijeron—. Nosotros mismos lo oímos decirlo».

Good News Translation
The Plot against Jesus(A)
22 (B)The time was near for the Festival of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover. 2 The chief priests and the teachers of the Law were afraid of the people, and so they were trying to find a way of putting Jesus to death secretly.
Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus(C)
3 Then Satan entered into Judas, called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve disciples. 4 So Judas went off and spoke with the chief priests and the officers of the Temple guard about how he could betray Jesus to them. 5 They were pleased and offered to pay him money. 6 Judas agreed to it and started looking for a good chance to hand Jesus over to them without the people knowing about it.
Jesus Prepares to Eat the Passover Meal(D)
7 The day came during the Festival of Unleavened Bread when the lambs for the Passover meal were to be killed. 8 Jesus sent Peter and John with these instructions: “Go and get the Passover meal ready for us to eat.”
9 “Where do you want us to get it ready?” they asked him.
10 He answered, “As you go into the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters, 11 and say to the owner of the house: ‘The Teacher says to you, Where is the room where my disciples and I will eat the Passover meal?’ 12 He will show you a large furnished room upstairs, where you will get everything ready.”
13 They went off and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover meal.
The Lord's Supper(E)
14 When the hour came, Jesus took his place at the table with the apostles. 15 He said to them, “I have wanted so much to eat this Passover meal with you before I suffer! 16 For I tell you, I will never eat it until it is given its full meaning in the Kingdom of God.”
17 Then Jesus took a cup, gave thanks to God, and said, “Take this and share it among yourselves. 18 I tell you that from now on I will not drink this wine until the Kingdom of God comes.”
19 Then he took a piece of bread, gave thanks to God, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.” 20 (F)In the same way, he gave them the cup after the supper, saying, “This cup is God's new covenant sealed with my blood, which is poured out for you.[a]
21 (G)“But, look! The one who betrays me is here at the table with me! 22 The Son of Man will die as God has decided, but how terrible for that man who betrays him!”
23 Then they began to ask among themselves which one of them it could be who was going to do this.
The Argument about Greatness
24 (H)An argument broke out among the disciples as to which one of them should be thought of as the greatest. 25 Jesus said to them, “The kings of the pagans have power over their people, and the rulers claim the title ‘Friends of the People.’ 26 (I)But this is not the way it is with you; rather, the greatest one among you must be like the youngest, and the leader must be like the servant. 27 (J)Who is greater, the one who sits down to eat or the one who serves? The one who sits down, of course. But I am among you as one who serves.
28 “You have stayed with me all through my trials; 29 and just as my Father has given me the right to rule, so I will give you the same right. 30 (K)You will eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom, and you will sit on thrones to rule over the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jesus Predicts Peter's Denial(L)
31 “Simon, Simon! Listen! Satan has received permission to test all of you, to separate the good from the bad, as a farmer separates the wheat from the chaff. 32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith will not fail. And when you turn back to me, you must strengthen your brothers.”
33 Peter answered, “Lord, I am ready to go to prison with you and to die with you!”
34 “I tell you, Peter,” Jesus said, “the rooster will not crow tonight until you have said three times that you do not know me.”
Purse, Bag, and Sword
35 (M)Then Jesus asked his disciples, “When I sent you out that time without purse, bag, or shoes, did you lack anything?”
“Not a thing,” they answered.
36 “But now,” Jesus said, “whoever has a purse or a bag must take it; and whoever does not have a sword must sell his coat and buy one. 37 (N)For I tell you that the scripture which says, ‘He shared the fate of criminals,’ must come true about me, because what was written about me is coming true.”
38 The disciples said, “Look! Here are two swords, Lord!”
“That is enough!”[b] he replied.
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives(O)
39 Jesus left the city and went, as he usually did, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples went with him. 40 When he arrived at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”
41 Then he went off from them about the distance of a stone's throw and knelt down and prayed. 42 “Father,” he said, “if you will, take this cup of suffering away from me. Not my will, however, but your will be done.” 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. 44 In great anguish he prayed even more fervently; his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.[c]
45 Rising from his prayer, he went back to the disciples and found them asleep, worn out by their grief. 46 He said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you will not fall into temptation.”
The Arrest of Jesus(P)
47 Jesus was still speaking when a crowd arrived, led by Judas, one of the twelve disciples. He came up to Jesus to kiss him. 48 But Jesus said, “Judas, is it with a kiss that you betray the Son of Man?”
49 When the disciples who were with Jesus saw what was going to happen, they asked, “Shall we use our swords, Lord?” 50 And one of them struck the High Priest's slave and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus said, “Enough of this!” He touched the man's ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests and the officers of the Temple guard and the elders who had come there to get him, “Did you have to come with swords and clubs, as though I were an outlaw? 53 (Q)I was with you in the Temple every day, and you did not try to arrest me. But this is your hour to act, when the power of darkness rules.”
Peter Denies Jesus(R)
54 They arrested Jesus and took him away into the house of the High Priest; and Peter followed at a distance. 55 A fire had been lit in the center of the courtyard, and Peter joined those who were sitting around it. 56 When one of the servant women saw him sitting there at the fire, she looked straight at him and said, “This man too was with Jesus!”
57 But Peter denied it, “Woman, I don't even know him!”
58 After a little while a man noticed Peter and said, “You are one of them, too!”
But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”
59 And about an hour later another man insisted strongly, “There isn't any doubt that this man was with Jesus, because he also is a Galilean!”
60 But Peter answered, “Man, I don't know what you are talking about!”
At once, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 61 The Lord turned around and looked straight at Peter, and Peter remembered that the Lord had said to him, “Before the rooster crows tonight, you will say three times that you do not know me.” 62 Peter went out and wept bitterly.
Jesus Is Mocked and Beaten(S)
63 The men who were guarding Jesus made fun of him and beat him. 64 They blindfolded him and asked him, “Who hit you? Guess!” 65 And they said many other insulting things to him.
Jesus before the Council(T)
66 When day came, the elders, the chief priests, and the teachers of the Law met together, and Jesus was brought before the Council. 67 “Tell us,” they said, “are you the Messiah?”
He answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me; 68 and if I ask you a question, you will not answer. 69 But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right side of Almighty God.”
70 They all said, “Are you, then, the Son of God?”
He answered them, “You say that I am.”
71 And they said, “We don't need any witnesses! We ourselves have heard what he said!”

World English Bible
22 Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching. 2 The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.
3 Satan entered into Judas, who was also called Iscariot, who was counted with the twelve. 4 He went away and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them. 5 They were glad, and agreed to give him money. 6 He consented and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.
7 The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed. 8 Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”
9 They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”
10 He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters. 11 Tell 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 He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”
13 They went, found things as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles. 15 He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer, 16 for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in God’s Kingdom.” 17 He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this and share it among yourselves, 18 for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until God’s Kingdom comes.”
19 He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.” 20 Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. 21 But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. 22 The Son of Man indeed goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”
23 They began to question among themselves which of them it was who would do this thing.
24 A dispute also arose among them, which of them was considered to be greatest. 25 He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26 But not so with you. Rather, the one who is greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves. 27 For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.
28 “But you are those who have continued with me in my trials. 29 I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me, 30 that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
31 The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat, 32 but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.”[a]
33 He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”
34 He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”
35 He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?”
They said, “Nothing.”
36 Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword. 37 For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’(A) For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”
38 They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.”
He said to them, “That is enough.”
39 He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him. 40 When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”
41 He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”
43 An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him. 44 Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.
45 When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief, 46 and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
47 While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him. 48 But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” 50 A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him. 52 Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? 53 When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”
54 They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance. 55 When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat among them. 56 A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”
57 He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”
58 After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!”
But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”
59 After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”
60 But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 61 The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.” 62 He went out, and wept bitterly.
63 The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him. 64 Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?” 65 They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.
66 As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying, 67 “If you are the Christ, tell us.”
But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe, 68 and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go. 69 From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
70 They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?”
He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”
71 They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

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.”
