40 And when he returned , he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy ,) neither wist they what to answer him.

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

42 Rise up , let us go ; lo , he that betrayeth me is at hand .
