Luke 22:29-49

29 Just as my Father has given me a kingdom, I also give you a kingdom

30 so you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom. And you will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31 "Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to test all of you as a farmer sifts his wheat.

32 I have prayed that you will not lose your faith! Help your brothers be stronger when you come back to me."

33 But Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and even to die with you!"

34 But Jesus said, "Peter, before the rooster crows this day, you will say three times that you don't know me."

35 Then Jesus said to the apostles, "When I sent you out without a purse, a bag, or sandals, did you need anything?" They said, "No."

36 He said to them, "But now if you have a purse or a bag, carry that with you. If you don't have a sword, sell your coat and buy one.

37 The Scripture says, 'He was treated like a criminal,' and I tell you this scripture must have its full meaning. It was written about me, and it is happening now."

38 His followers said, "Look, Lord, here are two swords." He said to them, "That is enough."

39 Jesus left the city and went to the Mount of Olives, as he often did, and his followers went with him.

40 When he reached the place, he said to them, "Pray for strength against temptation."

41 Then Jesus went about a stone's throw away from them. He kneeled down and prayed,

42 "Father, if you are willing, take away this cupn of suffering. But do what you want, not what I want."

43 Then an angel from heaven appeared to him to strengthen him.

44 Being full of pain, Jesus prayed even harder. His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.

45 When he finished praying, he went to his followers and found them asleep because of their sadness.

46 Jesus said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray for strength against temptation."

47 While Jesus was speaking, a crowd came up, and Judas, one of the twelve apostles, was leading them. He came close to Jesus so he could kiss him.

48 But Jesus said to him, "Judas, are you using the kiss to give the Son of Man to his enemies?"

49 When those who were standing around him saw what was happening, they said, "Lord, should we strike them with our swords?"
