13  A i korero a Ihowa ki a Mohi raua ko Arona, i mea,

Ki te mea he puku to te kiri o te kikokiko o tetahi tangata, he paku ranei, he wahi tu a kanapa ranei, a ka rite, i te kiri o tona kikokiko, ki te panga mai o te repera; na me kawe ia ki a Arona tohunga, ki tetahi ranei o ana tama, o nga tohunga:

Na ka tirohia e te tohunga te mea i pa ki te kiri o te kikokiko: a ki te mea kua puta ke, kua ma te huruhuru o te wahi i pangia, a ki te titiro atu, kua hohonu iho te mea i pa mai i te kiri o tona kikokiko, he panga mai tena no te repera: a ka ti tiro te tohunga ki a ia, a ka mea he poke ia.

A ki te mea e ma ana te wahi tu a kanapa o te kiri o tona kikokiko, a ki te titiro atu kihai i hohonu iho i te kiri, a kihai i puta ke, kihai i ma te huruhuru o reira; na ka tutakina atu e te tohunga te tangata i pangia, kia whitu nga ra:

A ka tirohia ia e te tohunga i te whitu o nga ra: na kua tuturu te mea i pa mai ra, ki tana titiro iho, a kihai i horapa atu te mate ki te kiri; katahi ka tutakina atu ano ia e te tohunga, kia whitu atu ano ra:

A ka tirohia ano ia e te tohunga i te whitu o nga ra: a ki te mea kua ahua mangu te mea i pa mai ra, a kihai i horapa atu te mate ki te kiri, na ka mea te tohunga, kahore ona poke: he paku kau: a ka horoia e ia ona kakahu, a ka kore ona poke.

Mehemea ia kua nui te horapatanga atu o te paku ki te kiri, i muri i te tirohanga a te tohunga i a ia kia purea ai ia, me titiro ano te tohunga ki a ia:

A ki te mea ka kite iho te tohunga, na kua horapa atu te paku ki te kiri, katahi ka mea te tohunga, he poke ia: he repera tena.

Ki te pangia te tangata e te repera, na me kawe ia ki te tohunga:

10 A ka tirohia e te tohunga: a ki te mea kua ma te puku o te kiri; a kua puta ke te huruhuru, kua ma, he wahi ora ano no te kikokiko ora kei te puku;

11 He repera tawhito tena i te kiri o tona kikokiko, me mea te tohunga he poke ia; e kore ano hoki ia e tutakina atu: e poke ana hoki.

12 A ki te horapa noa atu te repera ki te kiri, a ka ngaro i te repera te kiri katoa o te tangata i pangia, o tona mahunga iho, a tae noa ki tona waewae, o nga wahi katoa e titiro ai te tohunga;

13 Na ka titiro iho te tohunga: a ki te mea kua kapi katoa ona kikokiko i te repera, na ka mea ia, kahore he poke o te tangata i pangia; kua puta ke, kua ma katoa: kahore ona poke.

14 Otiia ka poke ia i te ra e kitea ai e ora ana tetahi wahi o ona kikokiko.

15 A me titiro iho ano te tohunga ki te kiko ora, a ka mea, he poke ia: he mea poke hoki te kikokiko ora: he repera hoki.

16 Otiia ki te hoki ano ki te ma te kikokiko ora, me haere ia ki te tohunga;

17 A ka titiro te tohunga ki a ia, a ki te mea kua puta ke te wahi i pangia, kua ma, na ka mea te tohunga, he pokekore te tangata i pangia: kahore ona poke.

18 Me te kikokiko hoki, he whewhe nei to tona kiri i mua, a kua ora,

19 A ka puta ake i te wahi o te whewhe he puku ma, he wahi tu a kanapa ranei, he mea ma, ahua puwhero, a ka whakakitea ki te tohunga;

20 A ki te mea, i te tirohanga a te tohunga, na kei raro iho i te kiri, ki te titiro atu, a kua puta ke, kua ma te huruhuru o reira; katahi ka mea te tohunga, he poke ia, he panga mai tena no te repera: e tupu ana i runga i te whewhe.

21 Ki te tirohia ia e te tohunga, na, kahore he huruhuru ma o reira, a kahore i raro i te kiri, engari e ahua mangu ana, na, me tutaki atu ia e te tohunga, kia whitu nga ra:

22 A ki te mea kua horapa nui atu ki te kiri, na ka mea te tohunga, he poke ia: he panga mate tena.

23 Ki te tuturu ia te wahi tu a kanapa ki taua wahi, a kahore e horapa atu, he nawe whewhe tena; a ka mea te tohunga, kahore ona poke.

24 Ki te mea ranei he wera ano na te ahi kei te kiri o tetahi kikokiko, a he wahi ma kanapa, he mea ahua whero, he mea ma ranei kei te kikokiko ora i wera nei;

25 Na me titiro e te tohunga: na, ki te mea kua puta ke, kua ma te huruhuru o te wahi kanapa, a ka hohonu iho i te kiri ki te titiro atu; he repera tena e tupu ake ana i runga i te wera: a me mea te tohunga, he poke ia: he panga tena no te repera.

26 Otiia ki te tirohia e te tohunga, na, kahore he huruhuru ma o te wahi kanapa, a kahore i raro i te kiri, otiia e ahua pouri ana; na me tutaki ia e te tohunga kia whitu nga ra:

27 A i te whitu o nga ra me titiro te tohunga ki a ia: a ki te mea kua horapa nui atu ki te kiri, katahi ka kiia ia e te tohunga ki a ia: a ki te mea kua horapa nui atu ki te kiri, katahi ka kiia ia e te tohunga, he poke: he panga tena no te repera.

28 A ki te tuturu te wahi tu a kanapa ki tena wahi, a kahore e horapa atu ki te kiri, otiia he ahua pouri; he puku tena no te weranga, a ka kiia ia e te tohunga he pokeore: he nawe wera hoki.

29 Na he tane, he wahine i pangia te matenga, te pahau ranei;

30 Me titiro te tohunga ki te mea i pa mai: a ki te mea he hohonu iho i te kiri ki tana titiro; a he ahua ma kowahi nei, he ririki te huruhuru; katahi ka kiia ia e te tohunga, he poke: he patito tena, he repera no te matenga, no te pahau.

31 A ki te titiro te tohunga ki te patito i pa nei, a kihai i hohonu iho i te kiri ki te titiro, a kahore o reira huruhuru mangu; na ka tutakina atu e te tohunga te tangata i pangia nei e te patito, kia whitu nga ra:

32 A i te whitu o nga ra ka titiro te tohunga ki te mate: a ki te kahore i horapa atu te patito, a kahore ona huruhuru ma kowhai nei, a ki te titiro kahore te patito i hohonu iho i te kiri:

33 Na ka heua ia, ko te patito ia e kore e heua; a ka tutakinga atu e te tohunga te tangata i te patito, kia whitu atu nga ra:

34 A i te whitu o nga ra, me titiro te tohunga ki te patito, a ki te kahore i horapa te patito ki te kiri, a kahore ano e hohonu iho i te kiri ki te titiro; katahi ka kiia ia e te tohunga, he pokekore: a ka horoia e ia ona kakahu, a ka kore te poke.

35 Otiia ki te horapa nui te patito ki te kiri i muri i te whakakorenga o tona poke;

36 Na me titiro ano te tohunga ki a ia: a ki te mea kua horapa tena te patito ki te kiri, e kore e rapua e te tohunga te huruhuru ma kowhai; he poke ia.

37 Ki te tuturu ia te patito ki tana titiro, a kua tupu te huruhuru mangu ki reira; kua mahu te patito, kahore ona poke: a ka kiia e te tohunga he pokekore.

38 Ki te mea he wahi kanapa to te kiri o te kikokiko o tetahi tangata, o tetahi wahine ranei, ara he wahi kanapa mea nei;

39 Na me titiro e te tohunga: a ki te mea he ma mangu nei nga wahi kanapa o te kiri o to ratou kikokiko; he papaka tena e tupu ana i te kiri; kahore ona poke.

40 Me te tangata hoki kua horo nga huruhuru o tona matenga, he pakira ia, kahore ona poke.

41 Me te tangata hoki kua horo nga huruhuru o te wahi o tona matenga whaka tona mata, he rae pakira ia; kahore ona poke.

42 A ki te mea kua pangia tetahi wahi o te matenga pakira, o te rae pakira ranei, he mea ma ahua whero nei, he repera tena e tupu ana i tona matenga pakira, i tona rae pakira ranei.

43 Na me titiro ia e te tohunga: na, ki te ma ahua whero te puku i pa ki tona matenga pakira, ki tona rae pakira ranei, ki te rite ki te putanga o te repera ki te kiri o te kikokiko;

44 He repera ia, he poke: me tino mea te tohunga, he poke ia; ko tona matenga i pangia.

45 A ko te repera i pangia nei, me haehae ona kakahu, kia roha noa atu nga makawe o tona mahunga, ka arai i tona ngutu o runga, a ka karanga, He poke, he poke.

46 Ka poke ia i nga ra katoa e pangia ai; he poke ia; me noho ko ia anake; ko waho o te puni te nohoanga mona.

47 Me te kakahu ano hoki i pangia e te repera, ahakoa he kakahu huruhuru, he kakahu rinena ranei;

48 Ahakoa i te whenu, i te aho ranei; i nga mea rinena, huruhuru ranei; ahakoa i te hiako, i tetahi mea hiako ranei;

49 Ki te mea ha ma kakariki, he puwhero ranei te wahi i pangia o te kakahu, o te hiako ranei, o te whenu ranei, o te aho ranei, o tetahi mea hiako ranei, he panga tena no te repera, a me whakakite ki te tohunga:

50 Na ka tirohia e te tohunga te wahi i pangia, a ka tutakina atu e ia te mea i pangia, kia whitu nga ra:

51 A i te whitu o nga ra ka tirohia e ia te wahi pangia: ki te mea kua horapa te mea i pa ki te kakahu, ki te whenu ranei, ki te aho ranei, ki tetahi hiako, ki tetahi mea ranei i hanga ki te hiako: he repara ngau kino te mea i pa; he mea poke tena.

52 Na ka tahuna e ia taua kakahu, ahakoa he whenu, he aho ranei, ahakoa he huruhuru, he rinena ranei, ahakoa he mea hiako te mea i pangia; he repara ngau kino tena; me tahu ki te ahi.

53 A ki te titiro te tohunga, na, kihai te mea i pa i horapa atu ki te kakahu, ki te whenua, ki te aho, ki tetahi mea hiako ranei;

54 Katahi ka whakahau te tohunga kia horoia te mea i pangia, a ka tutakina atu e ia, kia whitu atu ano nga ra:

55 A me titiro e te tohunga te mea i pa mai, i muri i te horoinga: a ki te mea kihai i rere ke te kara o te wahi i pangia, a kihai i horapa atu te mea i pa mai; he poke tena; me tahu e koe ki te ahi; kua ngaua a roto, ahakoa i tiwha te taha ki roto, te taha ranei ki waho.

56 A ki te mea ka kite te tohunga, na kau tapouri te wahi i pangia i muri i te horoinga; katahi ka haea atu e ia i roto i te kakahu, i te hiako ranei, i te whenu ranei, i te aho ranei:

57 A ki te kitea ano i te kakahu, i te whenu ranei, i te aho ranei, i tetahi mea hiako ranei; he mea tupu tena; me tahu e koe ki te ahi taua mea i pangia.

58 Ko te kakahu hoki, ko te whenu ranei, ko te aho ranei, ko te mea hiako ranei i horoia e koe, a kua riro te mate, na ka horoia ano, a ka kore ona poke.

59 Ko te ture tenei mo te panga mai o te repera ki te kakahu huruhuru, ki te kakahu rinena ranei, ki te whenu, ki te aho ranei, ki tetahi mea hiako ranei, mo te ki he pokekore, mo te ki ranei he poke.

Regulations About Defiling Skin Diseases

13 The Lord said to Moses and Aaron, “When anyone has a swelling(A) or a rash or a shiny spot(B) on their skin that may be a defiling skin disease,[a](C) they must be brought to Aaron the priest(D) or to one of his sons[b] who is a priest. The priest is to examine the sore on the skin, and if the hair in the sore has turned white and the sore appears to be more than skin deep, it is a defiling skin disease. When the priest examines that person, he shall pronounce them ceremonially unclean.(E) If the shiny spot(F) on the skin is white but does not appear to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has not turned white, the priest is to isolate the affected person for seven days.(G) On the seventh day(H) the priest is to examine them,(I) and if he sees that the sore is unchanged and has not spread in the skin, he is to isolate them for another seven days. On the seventh day the priest is to examine them again, and if the sore has faded and has not spread in the skin, the priest shall pronounce them clean;(J) it is only a rash. They must wash their clothes,(K) and they will be clean.(L) But if the rash does spread in their skin after they have shown themselves to the priest to be pronounced clean, they must appear before the priest again.(M) The priest is to examine that person, and if the rash has spread in the skin, he shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease.

“When anyone has a defiling skin disease, they must be brought to the priest. 10 The priest is to examine them, and if there is a white swelling in the skin that has turned the hair white and if there is raw flesh in the swelling, 11 it is a chronic skin disease(N) and the priest shall pronounce them unclean. He is not to isolate them, because they are already unclean.

12 “If the disease breaks out all over their skin and, so far as the priest can see, it covers all the skin of the affected person from head to foot, 13 the priest is to examine them, and if the disease has covered their whole body, he shall pronounce them clean. Since it has all turned white, they are clean. 14 But whenever raw flesh appears on them, they will be unclean. 15 When the priest sees the raw flesh, he shall pronounce them unclean. The raw flesh is unclean; they have a defiling disease.(O) 16 If the raw flesh changes and turns white, they must go to the priest. 17 The priest is to examine them, and if the sores have turned white, the priest shall pronounce the affected person clean;(P) then they will be clean.

18 “When someone has a boil(Q) on their skin and it heals, 19 and in the place where the boil was, a white swelling or reddish-white(R) spot(S) appears, they must present themselves to the priest. 20 The priest is to examine it, and if it appears to be more than skin deep and the hair in it has turned white, the priest shall pronounce that person unclean. It is a defiling skin disease(T) that has broken out where the boil was. 21 But if, when the priest examines it, there is no white hair in it and it is not more than skin deep and has faded, then the priest is to isolate them for seven days. 22 If it is spreading in the skin, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling disease. 23 But if the spot is unchanged and has not spread, it is only a scar from the boil, and the priest shall pronounce them clean.(U)

24 “When someone has a burn on their skin and a reddish-white or white spot appears in the raw flesh of the burn, 25 the priest is to examine the spot, and if the hair in it has turned white, and it appears to be more than skin deep, it is a defiling disease that has broken out in the burn. The priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease.(V) 26 But if the priest examines it and there is no white hair in the spot and if it is not more than skin deep and has faded, then the priest is to isolate them for seven days.(W) 27 On the seventh day the priest is to examine that person,(X) and if it is spreading in the skin, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease. 28 If, however, the spot is unchanged and has not spread in the skin but has faded, it is a swelling from the burn, and the priest shall pronounce them clean; it is only a scar from the burn.(Y)

29 “If a man or woman has a sore on their head(Z) or chin, 30 the priest is to examine the sore, and if it appears to be more than skin deep and the hair in it is yellow and thin, the priest shall pronounce them unclean; it is a defiling skin disease on the head or chin. 31 But if, when the priest examines the sore, it does not seem to be more than skin deep and there is no black hair in it, then the priest is to isolate the affected person for seven days.(AA) 32 On the seventh day the priest is to examine the sore,(AB) and if it has not spread and there is no yellow hair in it and it does not appear to be more than skin deep, 33 then the man or woman must shave themselves, except for the affected area, and the priest is to keep them isolated another seven days. 34 On the seventh day the priest is to examine the sore,(AC) and if it has not spread in the skin and appears to be no more than skin deep, the priest shall pronounce them clean. They must wash their clothes, and they will be clean.(AD) 35 But if the sore does spread in the skin after they are pronounced clean, 36 the priest is to examine them, and if he finds that the sore has spread in the skin, he does not need to look for yellow hair; they are unclean.(AE) 37 If, however, the sore is unchanged so far as the priest can see, and if black hair has grown in it, the affected person is healed. They are clean, and the priest shall pronounce them clean.

38 “When a man or woman has white spots on the skin, 39 the priest is to examine them, and if the spots are dull white, it is a harmless rash that has broken out on the skin; they are clean.

40 “A man who has lost his hair and is bald(AF) is clean. 41 If he has lost his hair from the front of his scalp and has a bald forehead, he is clean. 42 But if he has a reddish-white sore on his bald head or forehead, it is a defiling disease breaking out on his head or forehead. 43 The priest is to examine him, and if the swollen sore on his head or forehead is reddish-white like a defiling skin disease, 44 the man is diseased and is unclean. The priest shall pronounce him unclean because of the sore on his head.

45 “Anyone with such a defiling disease must wear torn clothes,(AG) let their hair be unkempt,[c] cover the lower part of their face(AH) and cry out, ‘Unclean! Unclean!’(AI) 46 As long as they have the disease they remain unclean. They must live alone; they must live outside the camp.(AJ)

Regulations About Defiling Molds

47 “As for any fabric that is spoiled with a defiling mold—any woolen or linen clothing, 48 any woven or knitted material of linen or wool, any leather or anything made of leather— 49 if the affected area in the fabric, the leather, the woven or knitted material, or any leather article, is greenish or reddish, it is a defiling mold and must be shown to the priest.(AK) 50 The priest is to examine the affected area(AL) and isolate the article for seven days. 51 On the seventh day he is to examine it,(AM) and if the mold has spread in the fabric, the woven or knitted material, or the leather, whatever its use, it is a persistent defiling mold; the article is unclean.(AN) 52 He must burn the fabric, the woven or knitted material of wool or linen, or any leather article that has been spoiled; because the defiling mold is persistent, the article must be burned.(AO)

53 “But if, when the priest examines it, the mold has not spread in the fabric, the woven or knitted material, or the leather article, 54 he shall order that the spoiled article be washed. Then he is to isolate it for another seven days. 55 After the article has been washed, the priest is to examine it again, and if the mold has not changed its appearance, even though it has not spread, it is unclean. Burn it, no matter which side of the fabric has been spoiled. 56 If, when the priest examines it, the mold has faded after the article has been washed, he is to tear the spoiled part out of the fabric, the leather, or the woven or knitted material. 57 But if it reappears in the fabric, in the woven or knitted material, or in the leather article, it is a spreading mold; whatever has the mold must be burned. 58 Any fabric, woven or knitted material, or any leather article that has been washed and is rid of the mold, must be washed again. Then it will be clean.”

59 These are the regulations concerning defiling molds in woolen or linen clothing, woven or knitted material, or any leather article, for pronouncing them clean or unclean.

26 A, i a ratou e kai ana, ka mau a Ihu ki te taro, a, ka mutu te whakapai, ka whawhati, ka hoatu ki nga akonga, ka mea, Tangohia, kainga; ko toku tinana tenei.

27 Na ka mau ia ki te kapu, a, ka mutu te whakawhetai, ka hoatu ki a ratou, ka mea, Inumia tetahi wahi o tenei e koutou katoa;

28 Ko oku toto hoki enei, ko o te kawenata hou, e whakahekea ana mo te tini, hei murunga hara.

29 Na ko taku kupu tenei ki a koutou, E kore ahau e inu i tenei hua o te waina a mua ake nei, kia taea ra ano taua ra e inumia houtia ai e tatou i te rangatiratanga o toku Matua.

30 A, no ka mutu ta ratou himene, ka haere ki Maunga Oriwa.

31 Katahi a Ihu ka mea ki a ratou, Ka he katoa koutou ki ahau i tenei po: kua oti hoki te tuhituhi, Ka patua e ahau te hepara, a ka whakamararatia nga hipi o te kahui.

32 Otira, muri iho i toku aranga, ka haere ahau i mua i a koutou ki Kariri.

33 Na ka whakahoki a Pita, ka mea ki a ia, Ahakoa he noa te katoa ki a koe, e kore rawa ahau e he.

34 Ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, He pono taku e mea nei ki a koe, Ko tenei po ano, i te mea kahore ano i tangi noa te tikaokao, ka toru au whakakahoretanga i ahau.

35 Ka mea a Pita ki a ia, Ahakoa kua takoto te tikanga kia mate tahi taua, e kore ahau e whakakahore i a koe. I pera ano te ki a nga akonga katoa.

36 Katahi ka haere ratou ko Ihu ki tetahi wahi, tona ingoa nei ko Kehemane, a ka mea ia ki ana akonga, Hei konei koutou noho ai, kia haere ahau ki koina inoi ai.

37 Na ka mau ia ki a Pita ratou ko nga tama tokorua a Heperi, a ka timata te pouri, te tumatatenga.

39 A haere ana ia ki tahaki tata atu, ka takoto tapapa, ka inoi, ka mea, E toku Matua, ki te mea e ahei, kia pahemo atu tenei kapu i ahau: otira kaua e waiho i taku e pai ai, engari i tau.

40 A ka haere ia ki ana akonga, rokohanga atu e moe ana, na ka mea ia ki a Pita, Ha, ko ta koutou tenei, te mataara tahi tatou kia kotahi haora?

41 Kia mataara me te inoi, kei uru ki te whakamatautauranga. He hihiko te wairua, ko te kikokiko ia he ngoikore.

42 Ka haere atu ano ia, ko te rua o ona hokinga, ka inoi, ka mea, E toku Matua, ki te kore e ahei kia pahemo atu tenei kapu i ahau, a me inu ano e ahau, waiho i tau i pai ai.

43 Ko tona haerenga mai ano, na rokohanga mai e moe ana ano ratou; i taimaha hoki o ratou kanohi.

44 Na ka waiho ano ratou e ia, a haere ana ano, ka inoi, ko te toru o nga inoinga, me te whakahua i taua kupu ano.

45 Katahi ia ka haere ki ana akonga, ka mea ki a ratou, Moe tonu, takoto marie: na ka tata te haora, ka tukua te Tama a te tangata ki nga ringa o te hunga hara.

46 Maranga, ka haere tatou: nana, ka tata te kaituku i ahau.

47 A, i a ia ano e korero ana, na ka tae mai a Hura, tetahi o te tekau ma rua, he tini hoki nga tangata i a ia, me nga hoari, me nga patu, he mea tono mai na nga tohunga nui, na nga kaumatua o te iwi.

48 Kua oti hoki tetahi tohu te whakarite ki a ratou e tona kaituku, i mea ia, Na, ko taku tangata e kihi ai, koia tena: hopukia.

49 Na tika tonu ia ki a Ihu, ka mea, Tena koe, e te Kaiwhakaako; a kihi ana i a ia.

50 Na ka mea a Ihu ki a ia, E hoa, meinga tau i haere mai ai ki te mahi. Me i reira ka haere mai ratou, ka pa o ratou ringa ki a Ihu, a hopukia ana ia.

26 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it(A) and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”

27 Then he took a cup,(B) and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 This is my blood of the[a] covenant,(C) which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.(D) 29 I tell you, I will not drink from this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you(E) in my Father’s kingdom.”

30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.(F)

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(G)

31 Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me,(H) for it is written:

“‘I will strike the shepherd,
    and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’[b](I)

32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”(J)

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.”(K)

35 But Peter declared, “Even if I have to die with you,(L) I will never disown you.” And all the other disciples said the same.

Gethsemane(M)

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(N) along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38 Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow(O) to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”(P)

39 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup(Q) be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”(R)

40 Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Couldn’t you men keep watch with me(S) for one hour?” he asked Peter. 41 “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.(T) 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.”(U)

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(V) has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”

Jesus Arrested(W)

47 While he was still speaking, Judas,(X) one of the Twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the elders of the people. 48 Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The one I kiss is the man; arrest him.” 49 Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, “Greetings, Rabbi!”(Y) and kissed him.

50 Jesus replied, “Do what you came for, friend.”[c](Z)

Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him.
