Matthew 26:30-46
New American Standard Bible 1995
30 (A)After singing a hymn, they went out to (B)the Mount of Olives.
31 Then Jesus *said to them, “You will all [a](C)fall away because of Me this night, for it is written, ‘(D)I will strike down the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be (E)scattered.’ 32 But after I have been raised, (F)I will go ahead of you to Galilee.” 33 But Peter said to Him, “Even though all may [b]fall away because of You, I will never fall away.” 34 Jesus said to him, “(G)Truly I say to you that (H)this very night, before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” 35 Peter *said to Him, “(I)Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You.” All the disciples said the same thing too.
The Garden of Gethsemane
36 (J)Then Jesus *came with them to a place called (K)Gethsemane, and *said to His disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” 37 And He took with Him (L)Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be grieved and distressed. 38 Then He *said to them, “(M)My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death; remain here and (N)keep watch with Me.”
39 And He went a little beyond them, and fell on His face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let (O)this cup pass from Me; (P)yet not as I will, but as You will.” 40 And He *came to the disciples and *found them sleeping, and *said to Peter, “So, you men could not (Q)keep watch with Me for one hour? 41 (R)Keep watching and praying that you may not enter into temptation; (S)the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42 He went away again a second time and prayed, saying, “My Father, if this (T)cannot pass away unless I drink it, (U)Your will be done.” 43 Again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. 44 And He left them again, and went away and prayed a third time, saying the same thing once more. 45 Then He *came to the disciples and *said to them, “[c]Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, (V)the hour is at hand and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Get up, let us be going; behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!”

30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.(A)
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(B)
31 Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me,(C) for it is written:
32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”(E)
33 Peter replied, “Even if all fall away on account of you, I never will.”
34 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.”(F)
35 But Peter declared, “Even if I have to die with you,(G) I will never disown you.” And all the other disciples said the same.
Gethsemane(H)
36 Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” 37 He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee(I) along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38 Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow(J) to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”(K)
39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup(L) be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”(M)
40 Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Couldn’t you men keep watch with me(N) for one hour?” he asked Peter. 41 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.(O) The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42 He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.”(P)
43 When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. 44 So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time, saying the same thing.
45 Then he returned to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour(Q) has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”
