27. For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.
28. But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.
29. I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,
30. that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
31. The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat,
32. but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.”
33. He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”
34. He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”
35. He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”
36. Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
37. For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ For that which concerns me has an end.”
38. They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”
39. He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.
40. When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”
41. He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,
42. saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”
43. An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.
