ciples: Sit ye here, while I shall pray. (33)And he takes
with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to
be troubled. (34)And he says to them: My soul is exceedingly
sorrowful, unto death; tarry here, and watch. (35)And going forward a
little, he 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 to thee; take away this cup from me; but not what
I will, but what thou wilt.
(37)And he comes, and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter:
Simon, sleepest thou? Couldest thou not watch one hour? (38)Watch and
pray, that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing,
but the flesh is weak.
(39)And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words. (40)And
returning, he found them again sleeping, for their eyes were heavy;
and they knew not what to answer him.
(41)And he comes the third time, and says to them: Do ye sleep the

(46)And they laid their hands on him, and held him fast. (47)And one
of those standing by drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high

Came ye out, as against a robber, with swords and staves to take me?
(49)I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye did not lay

forsook him, and fled.
(51)And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth
cast about his naked body; and the young men lay hold of him. (52)And
leaving behind the linen cloth, he fled from them naked.
(53)And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him assembled
