22 Now de the ho Festival heortē of ho Unleavened azymos Bread , which ho is called legō the Passover pascha, was drawing near engizō. · kai The ho chief priests archiereus and kai the ho scribes grammateus were looking zēteō for a way ho how pōs they might put anaireō Jesus autos to death , for gar they were afraid phobeomai of the ho people laos. Then de Satan Satanas entered eiserchomai into eis Judas Ioudas, the ho one called kaleō Iscariot Iskariōtēs, who was eimi of ek the ho number arithmos of the ho twelve dōdeka. · kai He went aperchomai and conferred syllaleō with the ho chief archiereus priests and kai officers stratēgos about ho how pōs he might deliver up paradidōmi Jesus autos to them autos. · kai They were delighted chairō and kai decided syntithēmi to give didōmi him autos money argyrion. · kai He agreed exomologeomai and kai began looking zēteō for an opportunity eukairia to ho deliver paradidōmi him autos up to them autos in the absence ater of a crowd ochlos.

Then de came erchomai the ho day hēmera of ho Unleavened azymos Bread , in en which hos the ho Passover lamb pascha had dei to be sacrificed thuō. So kai Jesus sent apostellō Peter Petros and kai John Iōannēs, saying legō, “ Go poreuō and prepare hetoimazō the ho Passover pascha for us hēmeis, that hina we may eat esthiō it together.” They ho · de said legō to him autos, “ Where pou do you want thelō us to prepare hetoimazō it?” 10 He ho · de said legō to them autos, “ Look idou, when you hymeis have entered eiserchomai the ho city polis, a man anthrōpos carrying bastazō a jar keramion of water hydōr will meet synantaō you hymeis. Follow akoloutheō him autos into eis the ho house oikia into eis which hos he enters eisporeuomai 11 and kai say legō to the ho master oikodespotēs of the ho house oikia, ‘ The ho Teacher didaskalos says legō to you sy, “ Where pou is eimi the ho guest katalyma room , where hopou I may eat esthiō the ho Passover pascha with meta · ho my egō disciples mathētēs?”’ 12 He kakeinos will show deiknymi you hymeis a large megas room anagaion upstairs , already furnished strōnnyō. Make preparations hetoimazō for us there ekei.” 13 So de they went aperchomai and found heuriskō everything as kathōs he had said legō to them autos; and kai they prepared hetoimazō the ho Passover pascha meal .

14 And kai when hote the ho hour hōra came ginomai, Jesus reclined anapiptō at table and kai the ho apostles apostolos were with syn him autos. 15 · kai He said legō to pros them autos, “ With great desire epithumia I desired epithumeō to eat esthiō this houtos · ho Passover pascha with meta you hymeis before pro · ho I egō suffer paschō! 16 For gar I say legō to you hymeis that hoti I will certainly not ou eat esthiō it autos again until heōs it hostis is fulfilled plēroō in en the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos.” 17 Then kai he took dechomai a cup potērion, and after he had given eucharisteō thanks he said legō, “ Take lambanō this houtos and kai divide diamerizō it among eis yourselves heautou. 18 For gar I say legō to you hymeis that hoti from apo now nyn on I shall certainly not ou drink pinō · ho of apo the ho fruit genēma of the ho vine ampelos until heōs hos the ho kingdom basileia of ho God theos comes erchomai.” 19 Then kai taking lambanō bread artos and giving eucharisteō thanks he broke klaō it and kai gave didōmi it to them autos, saying legō, “ This houtos is eimi · ho my egō body sōma, which ho is given didōmi for hyper you hymeis; do poieō this houtos in eis · ho remembrance anamnēsis of me emos.” 20 And kai he did the same hōsautōs with the ho cup potērion after meta · ho they had eaten deipneō, saying legō, “ This houtos · ho cup potērion is the ho new kainos covenant diathēkē in en · ho my egō blood haima, which ho on your hymeis behalf hyper is being poured ekchunnomai out .

21  But plēn see idou, the ho hand cheir of the ho one who will betray paradidōmi me egō is with meta me egō on epi the ho table trapeza. 22 For hoti the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos goes poreuō according kata to what ho has been determined horizō, but plēn woe ouai to ho that ekeinos man anthrōpos by dia whom hos he is betrayed paradidōmi.” 23 And kai they autos began archō to question syzēteō among pros one heautou another , · ho which tis of ek them autos it might be eimi who ho would mellō do prassō this houtos.

24 A dispute philoneikia also kai arose ginomai · de among en them autos as to ho which tis of them autos seemed dokeō to be eimi the greatest megas. 25 So de Jesus ho said legō to them autos, “ The ho kings basileus of the ho nations ethnos exercise lordship kyrieuō over them autos and kai those ho in authority exousiazō over them autos call themselves kaleō benefactors euergetēs.’ 26 But de with you hymeis it must not ou be so houtōs! Rather alla, let the ho greatest megas among en you hymeis become ginomai like hōs the ho youngest neos, and kai the ho leader hēgeomai like hōs the ho one who serves diakoneō. 27 For gar who tis is the greater megas, the ho one who reclines anakeimai at table or ē the ho one who serves diakoneō? Is it not ouchi the ho one who reclines anakeimai at table ? But de in en your hymeis midst mesos I egō am eimi like hōs the ho one who serves diakoneō. 28 You hymeis · de are eimi the ho ones who have stayed diamenō with meta me egō in en · ho my egō trials peirasmos. 29 Just as kathōs my egō Father patēr conferred diatithēmi on me egō kingly authority basileia, so also kagō do I confer diatithēmi it on you hymeis, · ho 30 that hina you may eat esthiō and kai drink pinō at epi · ho my egō table trapeza in en · ho my egō kingdom basileia and kai sit kathēmai on epi thrones thronos judging krinō the ho twelve dōdeka tribes phylē of ho Israel Israēl.

31 Simon Simōn, Simon Simōn! Pay attention idou! · ho Satan Satanas has demanded permission exaiteō to have all of you hymeis for himself , to ho sift siniazō you like hōs · ho wheat sitos, 32 but de I egō have prayed deomai for peri you sy that hina your sy faith pistis may not fail ekleipō. · ho And kai when pote you sy have returned epistrephō, strengthen stērizō · ho your sy brothers adelphos.” 33 Peter ho · de said legō to him autos, “ Lord kyrios, I am eimi ready hetoimos to go poreuō with meta you sy both kai to eis prison phylakē and kai to eis death thanatos.” 34 Jesus ho · de said legō, “ I tell legō you sy, Peter Petros, a rooster alektōr will not ou crow phōneō this day sēmeron before heōs you have denied aparneomai three tris times that you know oida me egō.”

35 And kai he said legō to them autos, “ When hote I sent apostellō you hymeis out without ater moneybag ballantion or kai knapsack pēra or kai sandals hypodēma, did you lack hystereō anything tis?” They ho · de replied legō, “ Nothing outheis.” 36 He said legō · de to them autos, “ But alla now nyn let the ho one who has echō a moneybag ballantion take airō it, and likewise homoiōs · kai a knapsack pēra. And kai the ho one who has echō no sword machaira, let him sell pōleō · ho his autos cloak himation and kai buy agorazō one. 37 For gar I tell legō you hymeis that hoti there must dei be fulfilled teleō in en me egō this houtos that ho stands written graphō: · ho And kai he was numbered logizomai with meta the lawless anomos.’ And gar indeed kai, that ho which concerns peri me egō has echō its fulfillment telos.” 38 So de they ho said legō, “ Lord kyrios, look idou! Here hōde are two dyo swords machaira.” Then de he ho told legō them autos, “ It is eimi enough hikanos.”

39 Then kai Jesus went exerchomai out and made poreuō his way , as kata was his ho custom ethos, to eis the ho Mount oros of ho Olives elaia; and de the ho disciples mathētēs followed akoloutheō him autos. · kai 40 When he arrived ginomai · de at epi the ho place topos, he said legō to them autos, “ Pray proseuchomai that you may not enter eiserchomai a time of trial peirasmos.” 41 Then kai he autos withdrew apospaō from apo them autos about hōsei a stone’ s lithos throw bolē, knelt down tithēmi · ho and kai began to pray proseuchomai, 42 saying legō, “ Father patēr, if ei you are willing boulomai, take parapherō this houtos · ho cup potērion away from apo me egō. Yet plēn, not · ho my egō will thelēma, but alla · ho yours sos be done ginomai.” 43 And de there appeared horaō to him autos an angel angelos from apo heaven ouranos, strengthening enischuō him autos. 44 And kai being ginomai in en agony agōnia he prayed proseuchomai more earnestly ektenōs; and kai his autos · ho sweat hidrōs became ginomai like hōsei great drops thrombos of blood haima falling down katabainō to epi the ho ground . 45 · kai When he rose anistēmi from apo · ho prayer proseuchē, he went erchomai back to pros the ho disciples mathētēs and found heuriskō them autos sleeping koimaō from apo · ho grief lypē. 46 · kai He said legō to them autos, “ Why tis are you sleeping katheudō? Rise anistēmi and pray proseuchomai that hina you may not enter eiserchomai a time of trial peirasmos.”

47 While he autos was still eti speaking laleō, there idou came a crowd ochlos, and kai the ho one called legō Judas Ioudas, one heis of the ho twelve dōdeka, was coming proerchomai on ahead of them autos. · kai He went engizō up to ho Jesus Iēsous to kiss phileō him autos, 48 but de Jesus Iēsous said legō to him autos, “ Judas Ioudas, is it with a kiss philēma that you intend to betray paradidōmi the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos?” 49 When those ho who were around peri him autos saw · de what ho was about eimi to happen , they said legō, “ Lord kyrios, shall ei we strike patassō with en the sword machaira?” 50 And kai a certain tis one heis of ek them autos struck patassō the ho servant of the ho high archiereus priest and kai cut aphaireō off · ho his autos right dexios ear ous. · ho 51 In response apokrinomai · de · ho Jesus Iēsous said legō, “ Stop eaō! No heōs more of this houtos.” And kai touching haptō the ho ear ōtion, he healed iaomai it autos. 52 Then de Jesus Iēsous said legō to pros those ho who had come paraginomai out against epi him autos—the chief archiereus priests and kai officers stratēgos of the ho temple hieron and kai elders presbyteros, “Why did you come out exerchomai as hōs against epi a robber lēstēs, with meta swords machaira and kai clubs xylon? 53 Day after kata day hēmera, when I egō was eimi with meta you hymeis in en the ho temple hieron, you did not ou stretch ekteinō out your ho hands cheir against epi me egō. But alla this houtos is eimi your hymeis · ho hour hōra, and kai the hour for the ho power exousia of ho darkness skotos. 54 Then de they seized syllambanō him autos and led agō him away , and kai brought eisagō him into eis the ho house oikia of the ho high archiereus priest . · ho · de Peter Petros was following akoloutheō at a distance makrothen. 55 Some people had kindled periaptō · de a fire pyr in en the middle mesos of the ho courtyard aulē and kai sat synkathizō down together . Peter Petros sat kathēmai down · ho among mesos them autos. 56 Seeing · de him autos sitting kathēmai at pros the ho fire phōs, a certain tis servant paidiskē girl · kai looked atenizō at him autos intently and said legō, “ This man houtos also kai was eimi with syn him autos.” 57 But de he ho denied arneomai it, saying legō, “ Woman gynē, I do not ou know oida him autos!” 58 · kai After meta a little brachus while someone else heteros noticed him autos and said phēmi, “ You sy also kai are eimi one of ek them autos.” · ho But de Peter Petros said phēmi, “ Man anthrōpos, I am eimi not ou!” 59 Then kai after about hōsei an heis hour hōra had passed diistēmi a certain tis other allos person kept insisting diischurizomai, saying legō, “ Surely epi alētheia this person houtos also kai was eimi with meta him autos, for gar he eimi too kai is eimi a Galilean Galilaios.” 60 But de Peter Petros said legō, · ho Man anthrōpos, I do not ou know oida what hos you are talking legō about .” And kai immediately parachrēma, while he autos was still eti speaking laleō, the rooster alektōr crowed phōneō. 61 Then kai the ho Lord kyrios turned strephō and looked emblepō at ho Peter Petros, and kai Peter Petros remembered hypomimnēskō · ho the ho word rhēma of the ho Lord kyrios that hōs he had said legō to him autos, “ Before prin the rooster alektōr crows phōneō today sēmeron, you will deny aparneomai me egō three tris times .” 62 And kai he went exerchomai out exō and wept klaiō bitterly pikrōs.

For gar we have heard akouō it ourselves autos from apo · ho his own autos lips stoma.”

The Plot to Kill Jesus

22 The(A) Festival of Unleavened Bread,(B) which is called Passover,(C) was approaching. The chief priests and the scribes were looking for a way to put him to death,(D) because they were afraid of the people.(E)

Then(F) Satan entered Judas,(G) called Iscariot,(H) who was numbered among the Twelve. He went away and discussed with the chief priests and temple police(I) how he could hand him over(J) to them. They were glad and agreed to give him silver.[a] So he accepted the offer and started looking for a good opportunity to betray him to them when the crowd was not present.

Preparation for Passover

Then(K) the Day of Unleavened Bread came when the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.(L) Jesus sent Peter and John,(M) saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”

“Where do you want us to prepare it?” they asked him.

10 “Listen,” he said to them, “when you’ve entered the city, a man carrying a water jug will meet you. Follow him into the house he enters. 11 Tell the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks you, “Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover with my disciples?”’ 12 Then he will show you a large, furnished room upstairs.(N) Make the preparations there.”

13 So they went and found it just as he had told them,(O) and they prepared the Passover.

The First Lord’s Supper

14 When(P) the hour came, he reclined at the table, and the apostles with him. 15 Then he said to them, “I have fervently desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again[b] until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”(Q) 17 Then he took a cup,(R) and after giving thanks,(S) he said, “Take this and share it among yourselves. 18 For I tell you, from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”

19 And he took bread, gave thanks, broke it, gave it to them, and said, “This is my body,(T) which is given for you. Do this in remembrance (U) of me.”

20 In the same way he also took the cup after supper and said, “This cup is the new covenant(V) in my blood,(W) which is poured out for you.[c] 21 But(X) look, the hand of the one betraying me is at the table with me.(Y) 22 For the Son of Man will go away as it has been determined,(Z) but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!”

23 So they began to argue(AA) among themselves which of them it could be who was going to do it.

The Dispute over Greatness

24 Then a dispute also arose among them about who should be considered the greatest.(AB) 25 But he said to them,(AC) “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who have authority over them have themselves called[d] ‘Benefactors.’ 26 It is not to be like that among you. On the contrary, whoever is greatest among you should become like the youngest,(AD) and whoever leads, like the one serving. 27 For who is greater, the one at the table or the one serving? Isn’t it the one at the table? But I am among you as the one who serves.(AE) 28 You are those who stood by me in my trials.(AF) 29 I bestow on you a kingdom,(AG) just as my Father bestowed one on me, 30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom.(AH) And you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(AI)

Peter’s Denial Predicted

31 “Simon, Simon,[e] look out. Satan(AJ) has asked to sift you[f] like wheat.(AK) 32 But I have prayed(AL) for you[g] that your faith may not fail. And you, when you have turned back, strengthen(AM) your brothers.”

33 “Lord,”(AN) he told him, “I’m ready to go with you both to prison and to death.”

34 “I tell you, Peter,” he said, “the rooster will not crow today until[h] you deny three times that you know me.”

Be Ready for Trouble

35 He also said to them, “When I sent you out(AO) without money-bag, traveling bag, or sandals, did you lack anything?”

“Not a thing,” they said.

36 Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a money-bag should take it, and also a traveling bag. And whoever doesn’t have a sword should sell his robe and buy one. 37 For I tell you, what is written must be fulfilled in me: [i] And he was counted among the lawless.[j](AP) Yes, what is written about me is coming to its fulfillment.”(AQ)

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

“That is enough!” he told them.

The Prayer in the Garden

39 He went out and made his way(AR) as usual(AS) to the Mount of Olives,(AT) and the disciples followed him. 40 When he reached the place,(AU) he told them, “Pray that you may not fall into temptation.”(AV) 41 Then he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, knelt down, and began to pray,(AW) 42 “Father, if you are willing, take this cup(AX) away from me—nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

43 Then an angel from heaven(AY) appeared to him, strengthening him. 44 Being in anguish,(AZ) he prayed more fervently, and his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.[k] 45 When he got up from prayer and came to the disciples, he found them sleeping, exhausted from their grief. 46 “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray, so that you won’t fall into temptation.”

Judas’s Betrayal of Jesus

47 While(BA) he was still speaking, suddenly a mob came, and one of the Twelve named Judas was leading them. He came near Jesus to kiss him, 48 but Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

49 When those around him saw what was going to happen, they asked, “Lord, should we strike with the sword?” 50 Then one of them struck the high priest’s servant and cut off his right ear.

51 But Jesus responded, “No more of this!” And touching his ear, he healed him. 52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple police, and the elders who had come for him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as if I were a criminal?[l] 53 Every day while I was with you in the temple,(BB) you never laid a hand on me. But this is your hour(BC) —and the dominion of darkness.”(BD)

Peter Denies His Lord

54 They seized him, led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. Meanwhile Peter(BE) was following at a distance. 55 They(BF) lit a fire in the middle of the courtyard(BG) and sat down together, and Peter sat among them. 56 When a servant saw him sitting in the light, and looked closely at him, she said, “This man was with him too.”

57 But he denied it: “Woman, I don’t know him.”

58 After a little while, someone else saw him and said, “You’re one of them too.”

“Man, I am not!” Peter said.

59 About an hour later, another kept insisting, “This man was certainly with him, since he’s also a Galilean.”

60 But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 61 Then the Lord turned and looked at Peter.(BH) So Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.”(BI) 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.

Jesus Mocked and Beaten

63 The men who were holding Jesus started mocking and beating him.(BJ) 64 After blindfolding him, they kept[m] asking, “Prophesy! Who was it that hit you?” 65 And they were saying many other blasphemous(BK) things to him.

Jesus Faces the Sanhedrin

66 When daylight came,(BL) the elders[n] of the people, both the chief priests and the scribes,(BM) convened and brought him before their Sanhedrin.(BN) 67 They said,(BO) “If you are the Messiah, tell us.”

But he said to them, “If I do tell you, you will not believe. 68 And if I ask you, you will not answer. 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”(BP)

70 They all asked, “Are you, then, the Son of God?” (BQ)

And he said to them, “You say that I am.”(BR)

71 “Why do we need any more testimony,” they said, “since we’ve heard it ourselves from his mouth?”
