Marcos 14
Palabra de Dios para Todos
Planean matar a Jesús
(Mt 26:1-5; Lc 22:1-2; Jn 11:45-53)
14 Faltaban dos días para la fiesta de la Pascua y de los Panes sin Levadura. Los jefes de los sacerdotes y los maestros de la ley empezaron a buscar una manera de arrestar a Jesús mediante algún engaño y matarlo. 2 Pero decían: «No lo hagamos durante la fiesta para que no haya un disturbio entre el pueblo».
Una mujer echa perfume sobre Jesús
(Mt 26:6-13; Jn 12:1-8)
3 Jesús estaba en Betania comiendo en la casa de un hombre llamado Simón el leproso. En eso llegó una mujer con un frasco de alabastro que contenía un costoso perfume en aceite hecho de nardo puro. Ella rompió el frasco y derramó el aceite sobre la cabeza de Jesús.
4 Algunos de los que estaban allí se enojaron y se dijeron entre ellos:
—¿Por qué desperdiciar el perfume en aceite de esa manera? 5 Podría haberlo vendido por el equivalente a casi un año de salario[a] y dar el dinero a los pobres.
Todos la criticaban.
6 Pero Jesús dijo:
—¡Déjenla en paz! ¿Por qué la molestan? Ella ha hecho algo maravilloso para mí. 7 Pues siempre tendrán a los pobres con ustedes[b] y los pueden ayudar en cualquier momento; pero no siempre me tendrán a mí. 8 Ella hizo lo que podía: derramó de antemano aceite sobre mi cuerpo preparándolo para mi entierro. 9 Les digo la verdad: en cualquier parte del mundo donde se anuncie la buena noticia, se contará también lo que ella ha hecho, para que la gente la recuerde.
Judas traiciona a Jesús
(Mt 26:14-16; Lc 22:3-6)
10 Después, Judas Iscariote, uno de los doce, fue a los jefes de los sacerdotes para entregarles a Jesús. 11 Ellos se alegraron al oírle y le prometieron dinero a cambio. Así que Judas empezó a buscar una oportunidad para traicionar a Jesús.
Preparación de la cena de la Pascua
(Mt 26:17-25; Lc 22:7-14, 21-23; Jn 13:21-30)
12 Era el primer día de la fiesta de los Panes sin Levadura, cuando se sacrificaba al cordero para la Pascua. Los seguidores le dijeron a Jesús:
—¿Dónde quieres que hagamos los preparativos para celebrar la cena de la Pascua?
13 Jesús entonces envió a dos de sus seguidores, diciéndoles:
—Vayan a la ciudad y encontrarán a un hombre llevando un cántaro de agua. Síganlo, 14 y donde él entre díganle al dueño de la casa: “El Maestro pregunta: ¿Dónde está el cuarto donde voy a comer la Pascua con mis seguidores?” 15 Entonces el dueño les mostrará un cuarto grande en el piso de arriba, arreglado y listo. Preparen la cena allí para nosotros.
16 Los seguidores salieron hacia la ciudad, encontraron todo tal como Jesús les había dicho y prepararon la cena de la Pascua.
17 Al anochecer llegó Jesús con los doce. 18 Mientras estaban a la mesa cenando, Jesús dijo:
—Les digo la verdad: uno de ustedes que come conmigo ahora, me traicionará. Es uno de los que están cenando conmigo ahora.
19 Ellos se sintieron muy tristes al oír esas palabras y cada uno dijo:
—De seguro no seré yo.
20 Jesús continuó diciendo:
—Es uno de ustedes doce. El que moja su pan en el mismo plato que yo. 21 El Hijo del hombre tiene que morir tal como está escrito. Pero, ¡pobre de aquel que traicione y entregue al Hijo del hombre! Más le valdría no haber nacido.
La Cena del Señor
(Mt 26:26-30; Lc 22:15-20; 1 Co 11:23-25)
22 Mientras comían, Jesús tomó el pan, dio gracias a Dios, lo partió, se lo dio a ellos y dijo:
—Tomen este pan, es mi cuerpo.
23 Luego Jesús tomó la copa, dio gracias, se la entregó a los seguidores y todos bebieron de ella, 24 y dijo:
—Esto es mi sangre que establece el nuevo pacto, la cual es derramada por muchos. 25 Les digo la verdad: no volveré a beber vino hasta el día en que beba vino nuevo en el reino de Dios.
26 Después cantaron una canción de alabanza y se fueron al monte de los Olivos.
Se anuncia la negación de Pedro
(Mt 26:31-35; Lc 22:31-34; Jn 13:36-38)
27 (A)Allí Jesús les dijo:
—Todos ustedes perderán la fe, porque así está escrito:
“Mataré al pastor
y todas las ovejas serán dispersadas”.[c]
28 Pero después de que yo resucite, iré delante de ustedes a Galilea.
29 Pedro le dijo:
—Aunque todos los demás pierdan la fe, yo no perderé mi fe.
30 Jesús le respondió:
—Te digo la verdad: hoy, esta misma noche, antes de que el gallo cante por la segunda vez, me negarás tres veces.
31 Pero Pedro insistió:
—Aun si tengo que morir contigo, no te negaré.
Y todos los demás decían lo mismo.
Jesús ora solo
(Mt 26:36-46; Lc 22:39-46)
32 Después fueron a un lugar llamado Getsemaní, y Jesús les dijo a sus seguidores:
—Siéntense aquí mientras voy a orar.
33 Jesús tomó a Pedro, Santiago y Juan. Comenzó a sentirse afligido y a angustiarse mucho. 34 Les dijo:
—¡Mi tristeza es tan grande que me siento morir! Quédense aquí y manténganse despiertos.
35 Caminó un poco, se postró rostro en tierra y oró que, de ser posible, no tuviera que pasar por ese momento difícil, 36 diciendo: «Querido padre[d], para ti todo es posible. Líbrame de esta copa, pero no hagas lo que yo quiero, sino lo que quieres tú».
37 Luego Jesús regresó, los encontró durmiendo y le dijo a Pedro:
—¿Simón, estás dormido? ¿No pudiste estar despierto por una hora? 38 Permanezcan alerta y oren para que no caigan en tentación. El espíritu está dispuesto a hacer lo correcto, pero el cuerpo es débil.
39 De nuevo Jesús se alejó para orar y dijo las mismas palabras. 40 Luego regresó a donde estaban los seguidores y los encontró durmiendo porque sus ojos se les cerraban de tanto sueño. No supieron qué responderle.
41 Jesús salió a orar y regresó por tercera vez, y les dijo:
—¿Todavía están durmiendo y descansando? ¡Ya basta! Ha llegado el momento en que el Hijo del hombre será entregado en manos de pecadores. 42 ¡Levántense y vámonos! ¡Miren, aquí viene el que me va a traicionar!
Arresto de Jesús
(Mt 26:47-56; Lc 22:47-53; Jn 18:3-12)
43 Mientras Jesús todavía estaba hablando, apareció de repente Judas, uno de los doce. Junto con él había mucha gente armada con espadas y garrotes. Todos ellos habían sido enviados por los jefes de los sacerdotes, los maestros de la ley y los ancianos líderes. 44 El que lo traicionaba les había dado una señal, diciéndoles: «Al que yo salude con un beso, ese es. Arréstenlo y llévenselo preso». 45 Así que Judas se acercó a Jesús y le dijo:
—¡Maestro!
Y le dio un beso en la mejilla. 46 Entonces agarraron a Jesús y lo arrestaron. 47 Pero uno de los que estaban junto a Jesús sacó la espada y le cortó la oreja a uno de los siervos del sumo sacerdote. 48 Jesús les dijo:
—¿Es que yo soy un bandido para que ustedes vengan a llevarme preso con espadas y garrotes? 49 Yo he estado todos los días con ustedes enseñándoles en el área del templo y nunca me arrestaron. Pero esto sucede para que se cumpla lo que está en las Escrituras.
50 Entonces, todos sus seguidores lo abandonaron y huyeron. 51 Un joven vestido sólo con una sábana siguió a Jesús y también trataron de arrestarlo. 52 Pero el joven soltó la sábana y huyó desnudo.
Jesús ante el Consejo
(Mt 26:57-68; Lc 22:54-55, 63-71; Jn 18:13-14, 19-24)
53 Luego llevaron a Jesús ante el sumo sacerdote. Se reunieron allí todos los jefes de los sacerdotes, los ancianos líderes y los maestros de la ley. 54 Pedro siguió a Jesús a cierta distancia, entró al patio de la casa del sumo sacerdote y se sentó con los guardias cerca del fuego, para calentarse.
55 Los jefes de los sacerdotes y todos los miembros del Consejo buscaban alguna excusa para condenar a muerte a Jesús, pero no lograban encontrar ninguna. 56 Porque muchos dieron testimonios falsos contra Jesús, pero no coincidían. 57 Entonces se levantaron algunos y dieron contra él este falso testimonio:
58 —Lo escuchamos decir: “Voy a destruir este templo que los hombres han construido y en tres días voy a construir otro sin ayuda de ningún ser humano”.
59 Pero este testimonio tampoco coincidía con los otros. 60 Luego el sumo sacerdote se levantó y frente a todos le preguntó a Jesús:
—¿Acaso no vas a responder nada? ¿Qué significa lo que estos testifican en tu contra?
61 Pero Jesús se quedó callado, sin responder nada. De nuevo el sumo sacerdote le preguntó:
—¿Eres tú el Mesías, el Hijo del Dios Bendito?
62 Y Jesús le dijo:
—Sí, lo soy. Y ustedes verán al Hijo del hombre sentado a la derecha del Todopoderoso y lo verán venir en las nubes del cielo.
63 El sumo sacerdote se rasgó la ropa y dijo:
—¿Para qué necesitamos más testigos? 64 ¡Ustedes acaban de escuchar semejante ofensa contra Dios! ¿Qué les parece?
Y todos lo condenaron a muerte. 65 Algunos le escupieron, le vendaron los ojos y le dieron puñetazos diciendo:
—¡Demuéstranos que eres profeta, dinos quién te pegó!
Luego los guardias se lo llevaron y lo golpearon.
La negación de Pedro
(Mt 26:69-75; Lc 22:56-62; Jn 18:15-18, 25-27)
66 Mientras Pedro estaba todavía en el patio de la casa del sumo sacerdote, una de las siervas de la casa se acercó 67 y vio a Pedro calentándose. La muchacha le dijo:
—Tú también estabas con Jesús de Nazaret.
68 Pero Pedro lo negó:
—No lo conozco y no sé de qué estás hablando.
Y se fue a la entrada del patio.[e] 69 La sierva volvió a ver a Pedro y dijo de nuevo a los que estaban allí:
—Este hombre es uno de ellos.
70 Pero Pedro volvió a negarlo. Al rato los que estaban allí le dijeron a Pedro:
—Seguro que eres uno de ellos porque tú eres de Galilea.
71 Entonces él comenzó a maldecir y a jurar:
—¡No conozco a ese hombre del que están hablando!
72 Enseguida cantó el gallo por segunda vez y Pedro recordó las palabras de Jesús: «Antes de que el gallo cante por segunda vez, me negarás tres veces», y se echó a llorar.

Onda anslag mot Jesus
14 Det var nu två dagar kvar till påsken[a] och det osyrade brödets högtid. Översteprästerna och de skriftlärda sökte efter ett sätt att gripa Jesus med list och döda honom. 2 De sade: "Inte under högtiden, för att det inte skall uppstå oro bland folket."
En kvinna smörjer Jesus
3 När Jesus var i Betania och låg till bords i Simon den spetälskes hus, kom en kvinna som hade en alabasterflaska med dyrbar äkta nardusolja. Hon bröt upp flaskan och hällde ut oljan över hans huvud. 4 Några blev upprörda och sade: "Varför detta slöseri med oljan! 5 Den hade man kunnat sälja för mer än tre hundra denarer och ge åt de fattiga." Och de grälade på henne. 6 Men Jesus sade: "Låt henne vara! Varför oroar ni henne? Hon har gjort en god gärning mot mig. 7 De fattiga har ni alltid hos er, och när ni vill kan ni göra gott mot dem, men mig har ni inte alltid. 8 Hon har fullgjort sin uppgift. I förväg har hon smort min kropp till begravningen. 9 Amen säger jag er: Överallt i världen där evangeliet predikas, skall man också berätta vad hon gjorde och komma ihåg henne."
Judas förråder Jesus
10 Men Judas Iskariot, en av de tolv, gick till översteprästerna för att utlämna Jesus åt dem. 11 När de hörde det blev de glada och lovade honom en summa pengar. Sedan sökte han efter ett lämpligt tillfälle att förråda honom.
Den sista påskalammsmåltiden
12 På första dagen av det osyrade brödets högtid, när man slaktade påskalammet, frågade hans lärjungar honom: "Vart vill du att vi skall gå och ställa i ordning, så att du kan äta påskalammet?" 13 Då sände han två av sina lärjungar och sade till dem: "Gå in i staden. Där kommer en man som bär en kruka vatten att möta er. Följ honom. 14 Och där han går in skall ni säga till husets ägare: Mästaren frågar: Var är rummet där jag kan äta påskalammet med mina lärjungar? 15 Då skall han visa er ett stort rum i övre våningen. Det är iordningställt och färdigt. Red till åt oss där." 16 Lärjungarna gick och kom in i staden, och de fann att det var som Jesus hade sagt dem. Och de redde till påskalammet.
17 När det blev kväll, kom Jesus med de tolv. 18 Medan de låg till bords och åt, sade Jesus: "Amen säger jag er: En av er kommer att utlämna mig - och han äter med mig." 19 Då blev de bedrövade och frågade honom, den ene efter den andre: "Inte är det väl jag?" 20 Jesus svarade dem: "Det är en av er tolv, den som nu tillsammans med mig doppar i skålen. 21 Ty Människosonen går bort, så som det står skrivet om honom. Men ve den människa som förråder Människosonen! Det hade varit bättre för den människan om hon aldrig hade blivit född."
Den första nattvarden
22 Medan de åt tog Jesus ett bröd, tackade Gud, bröt det och gav åt dem och sade: "Tag, detta är min kropp." 23 Och han tog en bägare, tackade Gud och gav åt dem, och de drack alla ur den. 24 Och han sade till dem: "Detta är mitt blod, förbundsblodet, som är utgjutet för många. 25 Amen säger jag er: Jag skall inte dricka av det som vinstocken ger, förrän den dag då jag dricker det nytt i Guds rike." 26 När de sedan hade sjungit lovsången,[b] gick de ut till Oljeberget.
Jesus förutsäger Petrus förnekelse
27 Jesus sade till dem: "Ni skall alla komma på fall. Det står skrivet: Jag skall slå herden, och fåren skall skingras. [c] 28 Men när jag har uppstått, skall jag gå före er till Galileen." 29 Då sade Petrus till honom: "Även om alla andra överger dig, skall jag inte göra det." 30 Jesus svarade: "Amen säger jag dig: Just denna natt, innan tuppen har galt två gånger, skall du tre gånger förneka mig." 31 Men Petrus försäkrade ännu ivrigare: "Om jag än måste dö med dig skall jag aldrig förneka dig." Så sade även alla andra.
Jesus i Getsemane
32 De kom därefter till ett ställe som heter Getsemane. Jesus sade till sina lärjungar: "Stanna här, medan jag ber." 33 Och han tog med sig Petrus, Jakob och Johannes. Han greps av ängslan och ångest 34 och sade till dem: "Min själ är djupt bedrövad, ända till döds. Stanna här och vaka." 35 Han gick lite längre fram och föll ner på jorden och bad att han om möjligt skulle bli förskonad från denna stund. 36 Han sade: "Abba,[d] Fader! Allt är möjligt för dig. Tag denna kalk ifrån mig. Men inte som jag vill utan som du vill." 37 När Jesus kom tillbaka fann han att de sov. Då sade han till Petrus: "Simon, sover du? Kunde du inte hålla dig vaken en kort stund? 38 Vaka och bed att ni inte kommer i frestelse. Anden är villig, men köttet är svagt." 39 Han gick bort igen och bad samma bön. 40 Då han kom tillbaka fann han att de sov. Deras ögon var tunga av sömn, och de visste inte vad de skulle svara honom. 41 Han kom tillbaka för tredje gången och sade till dem: "Ni sover nu och vilar er. Det är nog. Stunden har kommit. Se, Människosonen skall utlämnas i syndarnas händer. 42 Stig upp, låt oss gå! Han som förråder mig är här."
Jesus fängslas
43 Och se, medan Jesus ännu talade kom Judas, en av de tolv, och efter honom en folkhop med svärd och påkar. De kom från översteprästerna och de skriftlärda och de äldste. 44 Förrädaren hade avtalat med dem om ett tecken och sagt: "Den som jag kysser den är det. Grip honom och för bort honom under säker bevakning!" 45 När Judas kom, gick han genast fram till Jesus och sade: "Rabbi", och kysste honom. 46 Och de grep Jesus och fängslade honom. 47 Men en av dem som stod bredvid drog sitt svärd och högg till översteprästens tjänare och högg så av honom örat.
48 Och Jesus sade till dem: "Som mot en förbrytare har ni gått ut med svärd och påkar för att gripa mig. 49 Fastän jag varje dag har varit hos er i templet och undervisat, har ni inte gripit mig. Men Skrifterna skulle uppfyllas." 50 Då övergav alla honom och flydde. 51 Och en ung man, klädd i en linneskjorta på bara kroppen, följde efter Jesus. Honom grep de tag i. 52 Men han lämnade linneskjortan kvar och flydde undan naken.
Jesus inför Stora rådet
53 De förde Jesus till översteprästen, och där samlades alla översteprästerna[e] och de äldste och de skriftlärda. 54 Petrus följde Jesus på avstånd ända in på översteprästens gård. Där satt han bland rättstjänarna och värmde sig vid elden. 55 Översteprästerna och hela Stora rådet försökte finna något vittnesmål mot Jesus för att kunna döma honom till döden, men de fann inget. 56 Många vittnade falskt mot honom, men deras vittnesmål stämde inte överens. 57 Då steg några fram och avlade detta falska vittnesmål mot honom: 58 "Vi har hört att han har sagt: Jag skall bryta ner detta tempel som är byggt med händer, och på tre dagar bygga upp ett annat som inte är gjort med händer." 59 Men inte heller i detta fall stämde deras vittnesmål överens. 60 Då reste sig översteprästen och steg fram och frågade Jesus: "Svarar du inte på vad dessa vittnar mot dig?" 61 Men Jesus teg och svarade inte. Översteprästen frågade honom vidare: "Är du Messias, den Välsignades son?" 62 Jesus svarade: " Jag Är.[f] Och ni skall få se Människosonen sitta på Maktens högra sida och komma bland himlens moln." 63 Då rev översteprästen sönder sina kläder och sade: "Behöver vi några fler vittnen? 64 Ni har hört hädelsen. Vad anser ni?" Alla fann de honom skyldig till döden. 65 Några började spotta på honom, band för hans ögon och slog honom med knytnävarna och sade: "Profetera!" Och rättstjänarna tog emot honom med hugg och slag.
Petrus förnekar Jesus
66 Medan Petrus befann sig nere på gården, kom en av översteprästens tjänsteflickor dit. 67 När hon fick se Petrus där han satt och värmde sig, såg hon på honom och sade: "Du var också med den där Jesus från Nasaret." 68 Men han nekade: "Jag vet inte vad du talar om och begriper det inte." Sedan gick han ut på den yttre gården. Då gol tuppen.[g] 69 Tjänsteflickan såg honom, och hon sade också till dem som stod i närheten: "Han är en av dem." 70 Men Petrus nekade igen. Efter en kort stund sade också de som stod där till Petrus: "Visst är du en av dem. Du är ju galilé." 71 Men han förbannade och svor: "Jag känner inte den där mannen som ni talar om." 72 Strax gol tuppen för andra gången. Då kom Petrus ihåg det som Jesus hade sagt till honom: "Innan tuppen hinner gala två gånger, skall du tre gånger förneka mig." Och han brast i gråt.

Darby Translation
14 Now the passover and the [feast of] unleavened bread was after two days. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might seize him by subtlety and kill him.
2 For they said, Not in the feast, lest perhaps there be a tumult of the people.
3 And when he was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he lay at table, there came a woman having an alabaster flask of ointment of pure nard, very costly; and having broken the alabaster flask, she poured it out upon his head.
4 And there were some indignant in themselves, and saying, Why has this waste been made of the ointment?
5 for this ointment could have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor. And they spoke very angrily at her.
6 But Jesus said, Let her alone; why do ye trouble her? she has wrought a good work as to me;
7 for ye have the poor always with you, and whenever ye would ye can do them good; but me ye have not always.
8 What *she* could she has done. She has beforehand anointed my body for the burial.
9 And verily I say unto you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, what this [woman] has done shall be also spoken of for a memorial of her.
10 And Judas Iscariote, one of the twelve, went away to the chief priests that he might deliver him up to them;
11 and they, when they heard it, rejoiced, and promised him to give money. And he sought how he could opportunely deliver him up.
12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they slew the passover, his disciples say to him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare, that thou mayest eat the passover?
13 And he sends two of his disciples, and says to them, Go into the city, and a man shall meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.
14 And wheresoever he enters, say to the master of the house, The Teacher says, Where is my guest-chamber where I may eat the passover with my disciples?
15 and *he* will shew you a large upper room furnished ready. There make ready for us.
16 And his disciples went away and came into the city, and found as he had said to them; and they made ready the passover.
17 And when evening was come, he comes with the twelve.
18 And as they lay at table and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say to you, One of you shall deliver me up; he who is eating with me.
19 And they began to be grieved, and to say to him, one by one, Is it *I*? [and another, Is it *I*?]
20 But he answered and said to them, One of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish.
21 The Son of man goes indeed as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is delivered up; [it were] good for that man if he had not been born.
22 And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken bread, when he had blessed, broke [it], and gave [it] to them, and said, Take [this]: this is my body.
23 And having taken [the] cup, when he had given thanks, he gave [it] to them, and they all drank out of it.
24 And he said to them, This is my blood, that of the [new] covenant, that shed for many.
25 Verily I say to you, I will no more drink at all of the fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26 And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.
27 And Jesus says to them, All ye shall be offended, for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered abroad.
28 But after I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
29 But Peter said to him, Even if all should be offended, yet not *I*.
30 And Jesus says to him, Verily I say to thee, that thou to-day, in this night, before [the] cock shall crow twice, thou shalt thrice deny me.
31 But he said [so much] exceedingly the more, If I should have to die with thee, I will in no wise deny thee. And likewise said they all too.
32 And they come to a place of which the name [is] Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit here while I shall pray.
33 And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be amazed and oppressed in spirit.
34 And he says to them, My soul is full of grief even unto death; abide here and watch.
35 And, going forward a little, he fell upon the earth; and he prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.
36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee: take away this cup from me; but not what *I* will, but what *thou* [wilt].
37 And he comes and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, Simon, dost thou sleep? Hast thou not been able to watch one hour?
38 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed [is] willing, but the flesh weak.
39 And going away, he prayed again, saying the same thing.
40 And returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy; and they knew not what they should answer him.
41 And he comes the third time and says to them, Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough; the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is delivered up into the hands of sinners.
42 Arise, let us go; behold, he that delivers me up has drawn nigh.
43 And immediately, while he was yet speaking, Judas comes up, [being] one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd, with swords and sticks, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
44 Now he that delivered him up had given them a sign between them, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he; seize him, and lead [him] away safely.
45 And being come, straightway coming up to him, he says, Rabbi, Rabbi; and he covered him with kisses.
46 And they laid their hands upon him and seized him.
47 But a certain one of those who stood by, having drawn his sword, struck the bondman of the high priest, and took off his ear.
48 And Jesus answering said to them, Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and sticks to take me?
49 I was daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me; but [it is] that the scriptures may be fulfilled.
50 And all left him and fled.
51 And a certain young man followed him with a linen cloth cast about his naked [body]; and [the young men] seize him;
52 but he, leaving the linen cloth behind [him], fled from them naked.
53 And they led away Jesus to the high priest. And there come together to him all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.
54 And Peter followed him at a distance, till [he was] within the court of the high priest's palace; and he was sitting with the officers and warming himself in the light [of the fire].
55 And the chief priests and the whole sanhedrim sought testimony against Jesus to cause him to be put to death, and did not find [any].
56 For many bore false witness against him, and their testimony did not agree.
57 And certain persons rose up and bore false witness against him, saying,
58 *We* heard him saying, *I* will destroy this temple which is made with hands, and in the course of three days I will build another not made with hands.
59 And neither thus did their testimony agree.
60 And the high priest, rising up before them all, asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?
61 But he was silent, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and says to him, *Thou* art the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
62 And Jesus said, *I* am, and ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.
63 And the high priest, having rent his clothes, says, What need have we any more of witnesses?
64 Ye have heard the blasphemy; what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.
65 And some began to spit upon him, and cover up his face, and buffet him, and say to him, Prophesy; and the officers struck him with the palms of their hands.
66 And Peter being below in the palace-court, there comes one of the maids of the high priest,
67 and seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, says, And *thou* wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.
68 But he denied, saying, I know not nor understand what thou sayest. And he went out into the vestibule; and a cock crew.
69 And the maid, seeing him, again began to say to those that stood by, This is [one] of them.
70 And he again denied. And again, after a little, those that stood by said to Peter, Truly thou art [one] of them, for also thou art a Galilean.
71 But he began to curse and to swear, I know not this man of whom ye speak.
72 And the second time a cock crew. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus said to him, Before [the] cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice; and when he thought thereon he wept.

14 Now the Passover(D) and the Festival of Unleavened Bread were only two days away, and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were scheming to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him.(E) 2 “But not during the festival,” they said, “or the people may riot.”
3 While he was in Bethany,(F) reclining at the table in the home of Simon the Leper, a woman came with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, made of pure nard. She broke the jar and poured the perfume on his head.(G)
4 Some of those present were saying indignantly to one another, “Why this waste of perfume? 5 It could have been sold for more than a year’s wages[a] and the money given to the poor.” And they rebuked her harshly.
6 “Leave her alone,” said Jesus. “Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing to me. 7 The poor you will always have with you,[b] and you can help them any time you want.(H) But you will not always have me. 8 She did what she could. She poured perfume on my body beforehand to prepare for my burial.(I) 9 Truly I tell you, wherever the gospel is preached throughout the world,(J) what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”
10 Then Judas Iscariot, one of the Twelve,(K) went to the chief priests to betray Jesus to them.(L) 11 They were delighted to hear this and promised to give him money. So he watched for an opportunity to hand him over.
The Last Supper(M)(N)
12 On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb,(O) Jesus’ disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”
13 So he sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him. 14 Say to the owner of the house he enters, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is my guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 15 He will show you a large room upstairs,(P) furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”
16 The disciples left, went into the city and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.
17 When evening came, Jesus arrived with the Twelve. 18 While they were reclining at the table eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me—one who is eating with me.”
19 They were saddened, and one by one they said to him, “Surely you don’t mean me?”
20 “It is one of the Twelve,” he replied, “one who dips bread into the bowl with me.(Q) 21 The Son of Man(R) will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”
22 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it(S) and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take it; this is my body.”
23 Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank from it.(T)
24 “This is my blood of the[c] covenant,(U) which is poured out for many,” he said to them. 25 “Truly I tell you, I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”(V)
26 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.(W)
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(X)
27 “You will all fall away,” Jesus told them, “for it is written:
28 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”(Z)
29 Peter declared, “Even if all fall away, I will not.”
30 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “today—yes, tonight—before the rooster crows twice[e] you yourself will disown me three times.”(AA)
31 But Peter insisted emphatically, “Even if I have to die with you,(AB) I will never disown you.” And all the others said the same.
Gethsemane(AC)
32 They went to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.” 33 He took Peter, James and John(AD) along with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled. 34 “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death,”(AE) he said to them. “Stay here and keep watch.”
35 Going a little farther, he fell to the ground and prayed that if possible the hour(AF) might pass from him. 36 “Abba,[f] Father,”(AG) he said, “everything is possible for you. Take this cup(AH) from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.”(AI)
37 Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Simon,” he said to Peter, “are you asleep? Couldn’t you keep watch for one hour? 38 Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.(AJ) The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”(AK)
39 Once more he went away and prayed the same thing. 40 When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. They did not know what to say to him.
41 Returning the third time, he said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Enough! The hour(AL) has come. Look, the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners. 42 Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”
Jesus Arrested(AM)
43 Just as he was speaking, Judas,(AN) one of the Twelve, appeared. With him was a crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests, the teachers of the law, and the elders.
44 Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The one I kiss is the man; arrest him and lead him away under guard.” 45 Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, “Rabbi!”(AO) and kissed him. 46 The men seized Jesus and arrested him. 47 Then one of those standing near drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.
48 “Am I leading a rebellion,” said Jesus, “that you have come out with swords and clubs to capture me? 49 Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts,(AP) and you did not arrest me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled.”(AQ) 50 Then everyone deserted him and fled.(AR)
51 A young man, wearing nothing but a linen garment, was following Jesus. When they seized him, 52 he fled naked, leaving his garment behind.
Jesus Before the Sanhedrin(AS)(AT)
53 They took Jesus to the high priest, and all the chief priests, the elders and the teachers of the law came together. 54 Peter followed him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest.(AU) There he sat with the guards and warmed himself at the fire.(AV)
55 The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin(AW) were looking for evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death, but they did not find any. 56 Many testified falsely against him, but their statements did not agree.
57 Then some stood up and gave this false testimony against him: 58 “We heard him say, ‘I will destroy this temple made with human hands and in three days will build another,(AX) not made with hands.’” 59 Yet even then their testimony did not agree.
60 Then the high priest stood up before them and asked Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?” 61 But Jesus remained silent and gave no answer.(AY)
Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”(AZ)
62 “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”(BA)
63 The high priest tore his clothes.(BB) “Why do we need any more witnesses?” he asked. 64 “You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?”
They all condemned him as worthy of death.(BC) 65 Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.(BD)
Peter Disowns Jesus(BE)
66 While Peter was below in the courtyard,(BF) one of the servant girls of the high priest came by. 67 When she saw Peter warming himself,(BG) she looked closely at him.
“You also were with that Nazarene, Jesus,”(BH) she said.
68 But he denied it. “I don’t know or understand what you’re talking about,”(BI) he said, and went out into the entryway.[g]
69 When the servant girl saw him there, she said again to those standing around, “This fellow is one of them.” 70 Again he denied it.(BJ)
After a little while, those standing near said to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean.”(BK)
71 He began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know this man you’re talking about.”(BL)
72 Immediately the rooster crowed the second time.[h] Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows twice[i] you will disown me three times.”(BM) And he broke down and wept.

King James Version
14 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.
2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.
3 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.
4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?
5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.
6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.
7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.
8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.
9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.
11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.
12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?
13 And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.
14 And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?
15 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.
16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
17 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.
18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.
19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?
20 And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.
21 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
22 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.
23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.
24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.
25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
27 And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.
28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
29 But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.
30 And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.
31 But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.
32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.
33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;
34 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.
35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.
37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?
38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.
39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.
40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.
41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
43 And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.
45 And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.
46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.
47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
48 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?
49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.
50 And they all forsook him, and fled.
51 And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:
52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.
53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.
54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.
55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.
56 For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.
57 And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,
58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.
59 But neither so did their witness agree together.
60 And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?
62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?
64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.
65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands.
66 And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest:
67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.
68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.
69 And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them.
70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto.
71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak.
72 And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.
