36. Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
37. He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee. Grief and anguish came over him,
38. and he said to them, “The sorrow in my heart is so great that it almost crushes me. Stay here and keep watch with me.”
39. He went a little farther on, threw himself face downwards on the ground, and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, take this cup of suffering from me! Yet not what I want, but what you want.”
40. Then he returned to the three disciples and found them asleep; and he said to Peter, “How is it that you three were not able to keep watch with me even for one hour?
41. Keep watch and pray that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42. Once more Jesus went away and prayed, “My Father, if this cup of suffering cannot be taken away unless I drink it, your will be done.”
43. He returned once more and found the disciples asleep; they could not keep their eyes open.
