Luke 22:39-49

39 And he came out, and went, as his way was, to the Mountain of Olives, and the disciples went with him.
40 And when he came to the place, he said to them, Make a prayer that you may not be put to the test.
41 And he went a little distance away from them and, falling on his knees in prayer, he said,
42 Father, if it is your pleasure, take this cup from me: but still, let your pleasure, not mine, be done.
43 And an angel from heaven came to him, to give him strength.
44 And being in great trouble of soul, the force of his prayer became stronger, and great drops, like blood, came from him, falling to the earth.
45 And, getting up from prayer, he came to the disciples, and saw that they were sleeping for sorrow.
46 And he said, Why are you sleeping? Get up, and give yourselves to prayer, so that you may not be put to the test.
47 And while he was saying these words, there came a band of people, and Judas, one of the twelve, was in front of them, and he came near to Jesus to give him a kiss.
48 But Jesus said to him, Judas, will you be false to the Son of man with a kiss?
49 And when those who were with him saw what was coming, they said, Lord, may we not make use of our swords?
