The Plot to Kill Jesus(A)

22 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, drew near. And the chief priests and scribes were seeking how to kill Jesus, for they feared the people. Then Satan entered into Judas, called Iscariot, who was one of the twelve. He went and discussed with the chief priests and captains how he might betray Him to them. They were glad and agreed to give him money. He fully consented and searched for an opportunity to betray Him to them apart from the crowds.

The Preparation of the Passover(B)

Then the Day of Unleavened Bread came, when the Passover lamb must be killed. He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us to eat it.”

They said to Him, “Where will You have us prepare it?”

10 He said to them, “Now, as you enter the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you there. Follow him into the house which he enters, 11 and say to the owner 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. Prepare there.”

13 They went and found it as He had told them. So they prepared the Passover.

The Lord’s Supper(C)

14 When the hour had come, He and the twelve apostles with Him sat down. 15 And He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you, I will never eat 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 yourselves. 18 For I tell you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”

19 Then He took the 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 In like manner, He took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood which is shed for you. 21 But see the hand of him who betrays Me is with Me at the table. 22 Indeed, the Son of Man goes as it has been determined. But woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” 23 They began to inquire among themselves which of them it was who would do this.

The Dispute About Greatness

24 There was also rivalry among them concerning which of them was to be counted the greatest. 25 He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called benefactors. 26 But you are not so. Instead, let him who is greatest among you be as the younger, and he who rules as he who serves. 27 For who is greater: he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? But I am among you as He who serves. 28 You are those who have continued with Me in My trials. 29 And I appoint to you a kingdom as My Father has appointed one to Me, 30 so that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

Peter’s Denial Foretold

31 Then the Lord said, “Simon, Simon, listen! Satan has demanded to have you to sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have repented, strengthen your brothers.”

33 He said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You to prison and to death.”

34 He said, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know Me.”

Purse, Bag, and Sword

35 Then He said to them, “When I sent you without purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?”

They said, “Nothing.”

36 He said to them, “But now, let him who has a purse take it and also a bag. And let him who has no sword sell his garment and buy one. 37 For I tell you, what is written must yet be accomplished in Me, ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’[a] Indeed, what is written concerning Me has a fulfillment.”

38 They said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.”

He said to them, “It is enough.”

The Prayer on the Mount of Olives(D)

39 According to His custom, He came out and went to the Mount of Olives. And His disciples followed Him. 40 When He came there, He said to them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.” 41 He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed, 42 “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 And being in anguish, He prayed more earnestly. And His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

45 When He rose from prayer and had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping from sorrow. 46 He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you fall into temptation.”

The Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus(E)

47 While He was yet speaking, a crowd came. And he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew 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 would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” 50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

51 But Jesus said, “This is enough!” And He touched his ear and healed him.

52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, and captains of the temple guard, and the elders who had come for Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as against a rebel? 53 Daily, while I was with you in the temple, you did not lay hands on Me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness!”

Peter’s Denial of Jesus(F)

54 Then they arrested Him, and led Him away, and brought Him into the high priest’s house. Peter followed at a distance. 55 But when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat among them. 56 Then a servant girl saw him as he sat near the fire, and gazed at him, and said, “This man was with Him.”

57 But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”

58 A little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.”

Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

59 About an hour later another man firmly declared, “Certainly, this man also was with Him, for he is a Galilean.”

60 Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying.” Immediately, while he was yet speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” 62 And Peter went outside and wept bitterly.

The Mocking and Whipping of Jesus(G)

63 The men who guarded Jesus mocked Him and whipped Him. 64 When they had blindfolded Him, they struck Him on the face and asked Him, “Prophesy! Who struck You?” 65 And many other things they blasphemously spoke against Him.

Jesus Before the Council(H)

66 When day came, the assembly of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, came together and led Him away to their council, saying, 67 “Are You the Christ? Tell us!”

He said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe. 68 And if I also question you, you will not answer Me or release Me. 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 truly say that I am.”

71 Then they said, “What further testimony do we need? We have heard it from His own mouth.”

  1. Luke 22:37 Isa 53:12.

22 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them. And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. 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 Galilæan. 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.

The Plot to Kill Jesus(A)

22 Now (B)the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called Passover. And (C)the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill Him, for they feared the people.

(D)Then Satan entered Judas, surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered among the (E)twelve. So he went his way and conferred with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray Him to them. And they were glad, and (F)agreed to give him money. 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

(H)Then came the Day of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover must be [a]killed. And He sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”

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.”

El complot para matar a Jesús

(Mt. 26.1-5,14-16; Mr. 14.1-2,10-11; Jn. 11.45-53)

22 Estaba cerca la fiesta de los panes sin levadura, que se llama la pascua.(A) Y los principales sacerdotes y los escribas buscaban cómo matarle; porque temían al pueblo.

Y entró Satanás en Judas, por sobrenombre Iscariote, el cual era uno del número de los doce; y este fue y habló con los principales sacerdotes, y con los jefes de la guardia, de cómo se lo entregaría. Ellos se alegraron, y convinieron en darle dinero. Y él se comprometió, y buscaba una oportunidad para entregárselo a espaldas del pueblo.

Institución de la Cena del Señor

(Mt. 26.17-29; Mr. 14.12-25; Jn. 13.21-30; 1 Co. 11.23-26)

Llegó el día de los panes sin levadura, en el cual era necesario sacrificar el cordero de la pascua. Y Jesús envió a Pedro y a Juan, diciendo: Id, preparadnos la pascua para que la comamos. Ellos le dijeron: ¿Dónde quieres que la preparemos? 10 Él les dijo: He aquí, al entrar en la ciudad os saldrá al encuentro un hombre que lleva un cántaro de agua; seguidle hasta la casa donde entrare, 11 y decid al padre de familia de esa casa: El Maestro te dice: ¿Dónde está el aposento donde he de comer la pascua con mis discípulos? 12 Entonces él os mostrará un gran aposento alto ya dispuesto; preparad allí. 13 Fueron, pues, y hallaron como les había dicho; y prepararon la pascua.

14 Cuando era la hora, se sentó a la mesa, y con él los apóstoles. 15 Y les dijo: ¡Cuánto he deseado comer con vosotros esta pascua antes que padezca! 16 Porque os digo que no la comeré más, hasta que se cumpla en el reino de Dios. 17 Y habiendo tomado la copa, dio gracias, y dijo: Tomad esto, y repartidlo entre vosotros; 18 porque os digo que no beberé más del fruto de la vid, hasta que el reino de Dios venga. 19 Y tomó el pan y dio gracias, y lo partió y les dio, diciendo: Esto es mi cuerpo, que por vosotros es dado; haced esto en memoria de mí. 20 De igual manera, después que hubo cenado, tomó la copa, diciendo: Esta copa es el nuevo pacto(B) en mi sangre,(C) que por vosotros se derrama. 21 Mas he aquí, la mano del que me entrega está conmigo en la mesa. 22 A la verdad el Hijo del Hombre va, según lo que está determinado;(D) pero ¡ay de aquel hombre por quien es entregado! 23 Entonces ellos comenzaron a discutir entre sí, quién de ellos sería el que había de hacer esto.

La grandeza en el servicio

24 Hubo también entre ellos una disputa sobre quién de ellos sería el mayor.(E) 25 Pero él les dijo: Los reyes de las naciones se enseñorean de ellas, y los que sobre ellas tienen autoridad son llamados bienhechores; 26 mas no así vosotros,(F) sino sea el mayor entre vosotros como el más joven, y el que dirige, como el que sirve.(G) 27 Porque, ¿cuál es mayor, el que se sienta a la mesa, o el que sirve? ¿No es el que se sienta a la mesa? Mas yo estoy entre vosotros como el que sirve.(H)

28 Pero vosotros sois los que habéis permanecido conmigo en mis pruebas. 29 Yo, pues, os asigno un reino, como mi Padre me lo asignó a mí, 30 para que comáis y bebáis a mi mesa en mi reino, y os sentéis en tronos juzgando a las doce tribus de Israel.(I)

Jesús anuncia la negación de Pedro

(Mt. 26.31-35; Mr. 14.27-31; Jn. 13.36-38)

31 Dijo también el Señor: Simón, Simón, he aquí Satanás os ha pedido para zarandearos como a trigo; 32 pero yo he rogado por ti, que tu fe no falte; y tú, una vez vuelto, confirma a tus hermanos. 33 Él le dijo: Señor, dispuesto estoy a ir contigo no solo a la cárcel, sino también a la muerte. 34 Y él le dijo: Pedro, te digo que el gallo no cantará hoy antes que tú niegues tres veces que me conoces.

Bolsa, alforja y espada

35 Y a ellos dijo: Cuando os envié sin bolsa, sin alforja, y sin calzado,(J) ¿os faltó algo? Ellos dijeron: Nada. 36 Y les dijo: Pues ahora, el que tiene bolsa, tómela, y también la alforja; y el que no tiene espada, venda su capa y compre una. 37 Porque os digo que es necesario que se cumpla todavía en mí aquello que está escrito: Y fue contado con los inicuos;(K) porque lo que está escrito de mí, tiene cumplimiento. 38 Entonces ellos dijeron: Señor, aquí hay dos espadas. Y él les dijo: Basta.

Jesús ora en Getsemaní

(Mt. 26.36-46; Mr. 14.32-42)

39 Y saliendo, se fue, como solía, al monte de los Olivos; y sus discípulos también le siguieron. 40 Cuando llegó a aquel lugar, les dijo: Orad que no entréis en tentación. 41 Y él se apartó de ellos a distancia como de un tiro de piedra; y puesto de rodillas oró, 42 diciendo: Padre, si quieres, pasa de mí esta copa; pero no se haga mi voluntad, sino la tuya. 43 Y se le apareció un ángel del cielo para fortalecerle. 44 Y estando en agonía, oraba más intensamente; y era su sudor como grandes gotas de sangre que caían hasta la tierra. 45 Cuando se levantó de la oración, y vino a sus discípulos, los halló durmiendo a causa de la tristeza; 46 y les dijo: ¿Por qué dormís? Levantaos, y orad para que no entréis en tentación.

Arresto de Jesús

(Mt. 26.47-56; Mr. 14.43-50; Jn. 18.2-11)

47 Mientras él aún hablaba, se presentó una turba; y el que se llamaba Judas, uno de los doce, iba al frente de ellos; y se acercó hasta Jesús para besarle. 48 Entonces Jesús le dijo: Judas, ¿con un beso entregas al Hijo del Hombre? 49 Viendo los que estaban con él lo que había de acontecer, le dijeron: Señor, ¿heriremos a espada? 50 Y uno de ellos hirió a un siervo del sumo sacerdote, y le cortó la oreja derecha. 51 Entonces respondiendo Jesús, dijo: Basta ya; dejad. Y tocando su oreja, le sanó. 52 Y Jesús dijo a los principales sacerdotes, a los jefes de la guardia del templo y a los ancianos, que habían venido contra él: ¿Como contra un ladrón habéis salido con espadas y palos? 53 Habiendo estado con vosotros cada día en el templo,(L) no extendisteis las manos contra mí; mas esta es vuestra hora, y la potestad de las tinieblas.

Pedro niega a Jesús

(Mt. 26.57-58,69-75; Mr. 14.53-54,66-72; Jn. 18.12-18,25-27)

54 Y prendiéndole, le llevaron, y le condujeron a casa del sumo sacerdote. Y Pedro le seguía de lejos. 55 Y habiendo ellos encendido fuego en medio del patio, se sentaron alrededor; y Pedro se sentó también entre ellos. 56 Pero una criada, al verle sentado al fuego, se fijó en él, y dijo: También este estaba con él. 57 Pero él lo negó, diciendo: Mujer, no lo conozco. 58 Un poco después, viéndole otro, dijo: Tú también eres de ellos. Y Pedro dijo: Hombre, no lo soy. 59 Como una hora después, otro afirmaba, diciendo: Verdaderamente también este estaba con él, porque es galileo. 60 Y Pedro dijo: Hombre, no sé lo que dices. Y en seguida, mientras él todavía hablaba, el gallo cantó. 61 Entonces, vuelto el Señor, miró a Pedro; y Pedro se acordó de la palabra del Señor, que le había dicho: Antes que el gallo cante, me negarás tres veces. 62 Y Pedro, saliendo fuera, lloró amargamente.

Jesús escarnecido y azotado

(Mt. 26.67-68; Mr. 14.65)

63 Y los hombres que custodiaban a Jesús se burlaban de él y le golpeaban; 64 y vendándole los ojos, le golpeaban el rostro, y le preguntaban, diciendo: Profetiza, ¿quién es el que te golpeó? 65 Y decían otras muchas cosas injuriándole.

Jesús ante el concilio

(Mt. 26.59-66; Mr. 14.55-64; Jn. 18.19-24)

66 Cuando era de día, se juntaron los ancianos del pueblo, los principales sacerdotes y los escribas, y le trajeron al concilio, diciendo: 67 ¿Eres tú el Cristo? Dínoslo. Y les dijo: Si os lo dijere, no creeréis; 68 y también si os preguntare, no me responderéis, ni me soltaréis. 69 Pero desde ahora el Hijo del Hombre se sentará a la diestra del poder de Dios. 70 Dijeron todos: ¿Luego eres tú el Hijo de Dios? Y él les dijo: Vosotros decís que lo soy. 71 Entonces ellos dijeron: ¿Qué más testimonio necesitamos? porque nosotros mismos lo hemos oído de su boca.
