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41 And He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down and prayed,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 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 had come to His disciples, He found them sleeping for sorrow.

46 And He said unto them, “Why sleep ye? Rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.”
