New Testament

Mark 14:22-36 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

22. And while eating with them, Jesus took bread. And blessing it, he broke it and gave it to them, and he said: "Take. This is my body."

23. And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them. And they all drank from it.

24. And he said to them: "This is my blood of the new covenant, which shall be shed for many.

25. Amen I say to you, that I will no longer drink from this fruit of the vine, until that day when I will drink it new in the kingdom of God."

26. And having sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27. And Jesus said to them: "You will all fall away from me in this night. For it has been written: 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'

28. But after I have risen again, I will go before you to Galilee."

29. Then Peter said to him, "Even if all will have fallen away from you, yet I will not."

30. And Jesus said to him, "Amen I say to you, that this day, in this night, before the rooster has uttered its voice twice, you will deny me three times."

31. But he spoke further, "Even if I must die along with you, I will not deny you." And they all spoke similarly also.

32. And they went to a country estate, by the name of Gethsemani. And he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I pray."

33. And he took Peter, and James, and John with him. And he began to be afraid and wearied.

34. And he said to them: "My soul is sorrowful, even unto death. Remain here and be vigilant."

35. And when he had proceeded on a little ways, he fell prostrate on the ground. And he prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.

36. And he said: "Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Take this chalice from me. But let it be, not as I will, but as you will."
