The Prayer in the Garden

³² Then^(A) they came to a place named Gethsemane, and he told his disciples,^(B) “Sit here while I pray.”^{(C) 33} He took Peter,^(D) James,^(E) and John^(F) with him, and he began to be deeply distressed and troubled. ³⁴ He said to them, “I am deeply grieved^[a] to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake.”^{(G) 35} He went a little farther, fell to the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour^(H) might pass from him. ³⁶ And he said, “Abba,^[b] Father!^(I) All things are possible^(J) for you. Take this cup^(K) away from me. Nevertheless, not what I will, but what you will.” ³⁷ Then he came and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, “Simon,^(L) are you sleeping?^(M) Couldn’t you stay awake one hour? ³⁸ Stay awake and pray^(N) so that you won’t enter into temptation.^[c](O) The spirit^(P) is willing, but the flesh^(Q) is weak.” ³⁹ Once again he went away and prayed, saying the same thing. ⁴⁰ And again he came and found them sleeping, because they could not keep their eyes open. They did not know what to say to him.^{(R) 41} Then he came a third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Enough! The time has come. See, the Son of Man^(S) is betrayed into the hands of sinners.^{(T) 42} Get up; ^(U) let’s go. See, my betrayer is near.”
