Mark 14:32-42

Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

32 ¹And they went ²to a place called Gethsemane. And he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray. ”

33 And he took with him ³Peter and James and John, and began ⁴to be greatly distressed and troubled.

34 And he said to them, ⁵“My soul is very sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and ⁶watch. ” ^[a]

35 And going a little farther, he fell on the ground ⁷and prayed that, if it were possible, ⁸the hour might pass from him.

36 And he said, ⁹“Abba, Father, ¹⁰all things are possible for you. Remove ¹¹this cup from me. ¹²Yet not what I will, but what you will. ”

37 And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, “Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch one hour?

38 ¹³Watch and ¹⁴pray that you may not ¹⁵enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. ”

39 And again he went away and prayed, ¹⁶saying the same words.

40 And again he came and found them sleeping, for ¹⁷their eyes were very heavy, and ¹⁸they did not know what to answer him.

41 And he came the third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? ¹⁹It is enough; ²⁰the hour has come. ²¹The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42 Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand. ”
