Matthew 26:40-45
Holman Christian Standard Bible
40 Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He asked Peter, “So, couldn’t you[a] stay awake with Me one hour? 41 Stay awake and pray, so that you won’t enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42 Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, “My Father, if this[b] cannot pass[c] unless I drink it, Your will be done.”(A) 43 And He came again and found them sleeping, because they could not keep their eyes open.[d]
44 After leaving them, He went away again and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more. 45 Then He came to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting?[e] Look, the time is near. The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.(B)
