| 1 And the holiday of therf loaves, that is said pask, approached. [+Forsooth the holy day of therf loaves, which is said pask, came nigh.] | 1 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching, |
| 2 And the princes of priests and the scribes sought, how they should slay Jesus, but they dreaded the people. | 2 and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus, for they were afraid of the people. |
| 3 And Satan entered into Judas, that was called Iscariot, one of the twelve. | 3 Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. |
| 4 And he went, and spake with the princes of priests, and with the magistrates, how he should betray him to them. | 4 And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. |
| 5 And they joyed, and made covenant to give him money. | 5 They were delighted and agreed to give him money. |
| 6 And he promised, and he sought opportunity, to betray him, without the people. [And he promised, and he sought covenability, that he should betray him, without the companies.] | 6 He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present. |
| 7 But the days of therf loaves came, in which it was need, that the sacrifice of pask were slain [in which it was need, that pask, that is, the sacrifice of pask, be slain]. | 7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. |
| 8 And he sent Peter and John, and said [saying], Go ye, and make ready to us the pask, that we eat. | 8 Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover." |
| 9 And they said, Where wilt thou, that we make ready? | 9 "Where do you want us to prepare for it?" they asked. |
| 10 And he said to them, Lo! when ye shall enter into the city, a man bearing a vessel of water shall meet you; follow ye him into the house, into which he entereth. | 10 He replied, "As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, |
| 11 And ye shall say to the husbandman of the house, The master saith to thee, Where is a chamber [Where is the harbourgerie], where I shall eat the pask with my disciples? | 11 and say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?' |
| 12 And he shall show to you a great supping place strewed, and there make ye ready. | 12 He will show you a large upper room, all furnished. Make preparations there." |
| 13 And they went, and found as he said to them, and they made ready the pask. | 13 They left and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover. |
| 14 And when the hour was come, he sat to the meat [he sat to meat], and the twelve apostles with him. | 14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. |
| 15 And he said to them, With desire I have desired to eat with you this pask, before that I suffer; | 15 And he said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. |
| 16 for I say to you, that from this time I shall not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the realm of God. | 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God." |
| 17 And when he had taken the cup, he did graces [he did thankings], and said, Take ye, and part ye among you; | 17 After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, "Take this and divide it among you. |
| 18 for I say to you, that I shall not drink of the kind of this vine [soothly I say to you, I shall not drink of the generation of this vine], till the realm of God come. | 18 For I tell you I will not drink again of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes." |
| 19 And when he had taken bread, he did thankings, and brake, and gave to them, and said, This is my body, that shall be given for you; do ye this thing in mind of me. [And the bread taken, he did graces, or thankings, and brake, and gave to them, saying, This is my body, which shall be given for you; do ye this thing into my commemoration, or into mind of me.] | 19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me." |
| 20 He took also the cup, after that he had supped, and said, This cup is the new testament in my blood, that shall be shed for you. [Also and the chalice, after that he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you.] | 20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. |
| 21 Nevertheless lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table. | 21 But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table. |
| 22 And [soothly] man's Son goeth, as it is determined; nevertheless woe to that man, by whom he shall be betrayed. | 22 The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed, but woe to that man who betrays him." |
| 23 And they began to seek among them[selves], who it was of them, that was to do this thing. | 23 They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this. |
| 24 And strife was made among them, which of them should be seen to be greatest. | 24 Also a dispute arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest. |
| 25 But he said to them, Kings of heathen men be lords of them, and they that have power on them be called good doers, [Forsooth he said to them, Kings of heathen men be lords, or lordship, of them, and they that have power upon them be called good doers,] | 25 Jesus said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. |
| 26 but ye not so; but he that is greatest among you, be made as a younger [be made as the younger], and he that is [a] before-goer, as a servant. | 26 But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves. |
| 27 For who is greater, he that sitteth at the meat, or he that ministereth? whether not he that sitteth at the meat? And I am in the middle of you [Forsooth I am in the midst of you], as he that ministereth. | 27 For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves. |
| 28 And ye [it] be, that have dwelled with me in my temptations; [Soothly ye it be that have dwelt with me in my temptations;] | 28 You are those who have stood by me in my trials. |
| 29 and I assign to you, as my Father hath assigned to me, a realm, [and I dispose to you, as my Father hath disposed to me, a realm,] | 29 And I confer on you a kingdom, just as my Father conferred one on me, |
| 30 that ye eat and drink on my board in my realm, and sit on thrones, and deem the twelve kindreds of Israel [deeming the twelve kindreds of Israel]. | 30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. |
| 31 And the Lord said to Simon, Simon, lo! Satan hath asked (for) you, that he should riddle you as wheat; | 31 "Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you as wheat. |
| 32 but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not; and thou sometime converted [and thou converted sometime], confirm thy brethren. | 32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers." |
| 33 Which said to him, Lord, I am ready to go into prison and into death with thee. [Which said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, and into prison and into death.] | 33 But he replied, "Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death." |
| 34 And he said, I say to thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow to day, till thou thrice forsake that thou knowest me. | 34 Jesus answered, "I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me." |
| 35 And he said to them, When I sent you without satchel, and scrip, and shoes, whether any thing failed to you? And they said, Nothing. | 35 Then Jesus asked them, "When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?" "Nothing," they answered. |
| 36 Therefore he said to them, But now he that hath a satchel, take also and a scrip; and he that hath none [and he that hath not], sell his coat, and buy a sword. | 36 He said to them, "But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don't have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. |
| 37 For I say to you, that yet it behooveth that thing [this thing] that is written to be fulfilled in me, And he is areckoned with wicked men; for those things that be of me have an end. | 37 It is written: 'And he was numbered with the transgressors'; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment." |
| 38 And they said, Lord, lo! two swords here. And he said to them, It is enough. | 38 The disciples said, "See, Lord, here are two swords." "That is enough," he replied. |
| 39 And he went out, and went after the custom into the hill of Olives [And he gone out, went by custom into the hill of Olives]; and the disciples followed him. | 39 Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him. |
| 40 And when he came to the place, he said to them, Pray ye, lest ye enter into temptation. | 40 On reaching the place, he said to them, "Pray that you will not fall into temptation." |
| 41 And he was taken away from them, as much as is a stone's cast; and he kneeled, and prayed, | 41 He withdrew about a stone's throw beyond them, knelt down and prayed, |
| 42 and said [saying], Father, if thou wilt, do away this cup from me; nevertheless not my will be done, but thine [nevertheless not my will, but thine be done]. | 42 "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done." |
| 43 And an angel appeared to him from heaven, and comforted him [comforting him]. | 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. |
| 44 And he was made in agony, and prayed the longer [And he made in agony, either anguish, prayed longer]; and his sweat was made as drops of blood running down into the earth. | 44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. |
| 45 And when he was risen from prayer [And when he had risen from prayer], and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for heaviness. | 45 When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. |
| 46 And he said to them, What sleep ye? Rise ye, and pray ye [Rise ye, and pray], that ye enter not into temptation. | 46 "Why are you sleeping?" he asked them. "Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation." |
| 47 Yet while he spake, lo! a company, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he came [nigh] to Jesus, to kiss him. | 47 While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him, |
| 48 And Jesus said to him, Judas, betrayest thou man's Son with a kiss? | 48 but Jesus asked him, "Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?" |
| 49 And they that were about him, and saw that that was to come, said to him, Lord, whether we smite with sword? | 49 When Jesus' followers saw what was going to happen, they said, "Lord, should we strike with our swords?" |
| 50 And one of them smote the servant of the prince of priests, and cut off his right ear. | 50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. |
| 51 But Jesus answered, and said, Suffer ye till hither. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him. | 51 But Jesus answered, "No more of this!" And he touched the man's ear and healed him. |
| 52 And Jesus said to them, that came to him, the princes of priests, and magistrates of the temple [and magistrates, or masters, of the temple], and elder men, As to a thief ye have gone out with swords and staves? | 52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard, and the elders, who had come for him, "Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? |
| 53 When I was each day with you in the temple, ye stretched not out [the] hands into me; but this is your hour, and the power of darknesses. | 53 Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour--when darkness reigns." |
| 54 And they took him, and led to the house of the prince of priests; and Peter followed him afar. | 54 Then seizing him, they led him away and took him into the house of the high priest. Peter followed at a distance. |
| 55 And when a fire was kindled in the middle of the great house, and they sat about, Peter was in the middle of them. | 55 But when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat down with them. |
| 56 Whom when a damsel had seen sitting at the light [+Whom when some handmaiden/handmaid had seen sitting at the light], and had beheld him, she said, And this was with him. | 56 A servant girl saw him seated there in the firelight. She looked closely at him and said, "This man was with him." |
| 57 And he denied him, and said [saying], Woman, I know him not. | 57 But he denied it. "Woman, I don't know him," he said. |
| 58 And after a little another man saw him, and said, And thou art of them. But Peter said, A! man, I am not. | 58 A little later someone else saw him and said, "You also are one of them." "Man, I am not!" Peter replied. |
| 59 And when a space was made as of one hour, [soothly] another affirmed, and said [saying], Truly this was with him; for also he is of Galilee. | 59 About an hour later another asserted, "Certainly this fellow was with him, for he is a Galilean." |
| 60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And at once [And anon] yet while he spake, the cock crew. | 60 Peter replied, "Man, I don't know what you're talking about!" Just as he was speaking, the rooster crowed. |
| 61 And the Lord turned again [And the Lord turned], and beheld Peter; and Peter had mind of the word of Jesus, as he had said, Before that the cock crow, thrice thou shalt deny me. | 61 The Lord turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: "Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times." |
| 62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly. | 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly. |
| 63 And the men that held him scorned him, and smote him. | 63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. |
| 64 And they blindfolded him, and smote his face, and asked him, and said, Declare, thou Christ, to us, who is he that smote thee? [And they veiled him, and smote his face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy thou, who is it that smote thee?] | 64 They blindfolded him and demanded, "Prophesy! Who hit you?" |
| 65 Also they blaspheming said against him many other things. [Also they blaspheming said many other things against him.] | 65 And they said many other insulting things to him. |
| 66 And as the day was come, the elder men of the people, and the princes of priests, and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, and said [saying], | 66 At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and teachers of the law, met together, and Jesus was led before them. |
| 67 If thou art Christ, say to us. And he said to them, If I say to you, ye will not believe to me; | 67 "If you are the Christ, " they said, "tell us." Jesus answered, "If I tell you, you will not believe me, |
| 68 and if I ask, ye will not answer to me, neither ye will deliver me. [soothly and if I shall ask, ye shall not answer to me, neither ye shall let go.] | 68 and if I asked you, you would not answer. |
| 69 But after this time man's Son shall be sitting on the right half of the virtue of God. | 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God." |
| 70 Therefore all said, Then art thou the Son of God? And he said, Ye say that I am. | 70 They all asked, "Are you then the Son of God?" He replied, "You are right in saying I am." |
| 71 And they said, What yet desire we witnessing? for we ourselves have heard of his mouth. | 71 Then they said, "Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips." |
