26. When they had sung the Hallel, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
27. Yeshua said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’
28. However, after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.”
29. But Peter said to him, “Although all will be offended, yet I will not.”
30. Yeshua said to him, “Most certainly I tell you, that you today, even this night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”
31. But he spoke all the more, “If I must die with you, I will not deny you.” They all said the same thing.
32. They came to a place which was named Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I pray.”
33. He took with him Peter, Jacob, and Yochanan, and began to be greatly troubled and distressed.
34. He said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch.”
35. He went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.
36. He said, “Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Please remove this cup from me. However, not what I desire, but what you desire.”
37. He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn’t you watch one hour?
38. Watch and pray, that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
39. Again he went away, and prayed, saying the same words.
40. Again he returned, and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy, and they didn’t know what to answer him.
