Mark 14:42 In-Context

40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again (for their eyes were heavy), nor did they know what to answer him.

41 And he came the third time and said unto them, Sleep on now and rest; it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of the sinners.

42 Rise up, let us go; behold, he that betrays me is at hand.

43 And immediately, while he yet spoke, Judas came, who was one of the twelve, and with him a multitude with swords and staves from the princes of the priests and of the scribes and of the elders.

44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him and lead him away securely.
