Luke 22:46 In-Context

44 and in great anguish he prayed more intensely, so that his sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.
45 On rising from prayer and coming to the talmidim, he found them sleeping because of their grief.
46 He said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you won't be put to the test!"
47 While he was still speaking, a crowd of people arrived, with the man called Y'hudah (one of the Twelve!) leading them. He came up to Yeshua to kiss him,
48 but Yeshua said to him, "Y'hudah, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?"
