Mark 14:42 In-Context

40 And again he came [and] found them sleeping, {for they could not keep their eyes open}, and they did not know what to reply to him.

41 And he came the third [time] and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42 Get up, let us go! Behold, the one who is betraying me is approaching!"

43 And immediately, [while] he was still speaking, Judas--one of the twelve--arrived, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

44 Now the one who was betraying him had given them a sign, saying, "[The one] whom I kiss--he is [the one]. Arrest him and lead [him] away under guard!"
