32 And they came into a place, whose name is Gethsemane. And he said to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I pray.[a]

33 And he took Peter and James and John with him, and began to dread, and to be distressed.[b]

34 And he said to them, My soul is sorrowful to the death; abide ye here, and wake ye with me.[c]

35 And when he was gone forth a little, he felled down on the earth, and prayed, that if it might be, that the hour should pass from him.[d]

36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things be possible to thee, bear over from me this cup; but not that I will, but that thou wilt, be done.[e]

37 And he came, and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter [And he saith to Peter], Simon, sleepest thou? mightest thou not wake with me one hour?

38 Wake ye, and pray ye, that ye enter not into temptation; for the spirit is ready, but the flesh is frail [forsooth the spirit is ready, but the flesh is sick].

39 And again he went, and prayed, and said the same word;

40 and he turned again, and again found them sleeping; for their eyes were heavied. And they knew not [And they wist not], what they should answer to him.

41 And he came the third time, and said to them [and saith to them], Sleep ye now, and rest ye; it sufficeth. The hour is come; lo! man's Son shall be betrayed into the hands of sinful men [lo! man's son shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners].

42 Rise ye, go we; lo! he that shall betray me is nigh.

32 (A)[a]After, they came into a place named Gethsemane: then he said to his disciples, Sit ye here, till I have prayed.

33 And he took with him Peter, and James, and John, and he began to be troubled, and in great heaviness,

34 And said unto them, My soul is very heavy, even unto the death: tarry here, and watch.

35 So he went forward a little, and fell down on the ground, and prayed, that if it were possible, that hour might pass from him,

36 And he said, [b]Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee: take away this cup from me: nevertheless not that I will, but that thou wilt, be done.

37 [c]Then he came, and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?

38 Watch ye, and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is ready, but the flesh is weak.

39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.

40 And he returned, and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy: neither knew they what they should answer him.

41 And he came the third time, and said unto them, Sleep henceforth, and take your rest: it is enough: the hour is come: behold, the Son of man is delivered into the hands of sinners.

42 Rise up: let us go: lo, he that betrayeth me, is at hand.

  1. Mark 14:32 Christ suffering for us in that flesh which he took upon him for our sakes, the most horrible terrors of the curse of God, receiveth the cup at his Father’s hands, which he being just, doth straightway drink of for the unjust.
  2. Mark 14:36 This doubling of the word was used in those days, when their languages were so mixed together: for this word, Abba, is a Syrian word.
  3. Mark 14:37 An horrible example of the sluggishness of men, even in the disciples whom Christ had chosen.

32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray. 33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy; 34 and saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch. 35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. 36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour? 38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.

39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words. 40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him. 41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
