44 In his anguish he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.]

45 When he got up from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,

46 and he said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you may not come into the time of trial."
