Mark 14:39 In-Context

37 Then Jesus went back to his followers and found them asleep. He said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn't you stay awake with me for one hour?

38 Stay awake and pray for strength against temptation. The spirit wants to do what is right, but the body is weak."

39 Again Jesus went away and prayed the same thing.

40 Then he went back to his followers, and again he found them asleep, because their eyes were very heavy. And they did not know what to say to him.

41 After Jesus prayed a third time, he went back to his followers and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? That's enough. The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinful people.
