Luke 22:39-46

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁹ And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,

⁴² Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.

⁴⁴ And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground.

⁴⁵ And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow.

⁴⁶ And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation.
