Mark 14:36-38

Contemporary English Version

^35-36 Jesus walked on a little way. Then he knelt down on the ground and prayed, “Father,^[a] if it is possible, don't let this happen to me! Father, you can do anything. Don't make me suffer by drinking from this cup.^[b] But do what you want, and not what I want.”

³⁷ When Jesus came back and found the disciples sleeping, he said to Simon Peter, “Are you asleep? Can't you stay awake for just one hour? ³⁸ Stay awake and pray that you won't be tested. You want to do what is right, but you are weak.”
