Open this scene in the reader →32And they came to a place whose name was Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, “Sit here until I pray.”
33And he takes Peter and James and John with him, and he began to be greatly distressed and troubled,
34And he says to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, even to death. Remain here and keep watch.”
35And going a little farther, he fell to the ground and was praying that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.
36And he was saying, “Abba, Father, all things are possible for you. Take this cup away from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.”
37And he comes and finds them sleeping, and he says to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not able to stay awake one hour?”
38Stay awake and pray, so that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
39And again he went away and prayed, saying the same words.
40And coming again, he found them sleeping, for their eyes were weighed down, and they did not know what they should answer him.
41And he comes the third time and says to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough; the hour has come. Look, the Son of Man is being handed over into the hands of sinners.”
42Get up; let us go. Look, the one betraying me has come near.
