36. Then come with them doth Jesus to a place called Gethsemane, and he saith to the disciples, `Sit ye here, till having gone away, I shall pray yonder.'
37. And having taken Peter, and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful, and to be very heavy;
38. then saith he to them, `Exceedingly sorrowful is my soul--unto death; abide ye here, and watch with me.'
39. And having gone forward a little, he fell on his face, praying, and saying, `My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as Thou.'
40. And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and he saith to Peter, `So! ye were not able one hour to watch with me!
41. watch, and pray, that ye may not enter into temptation: the spirit indeed is forward, but the flesh weak.'
42. Again, a second time, having gone away, he prayed, saying, `My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from me except I drink it, Thy will be done;'

51. And lo, one of those with Jesus, having stretched forth the hand, drew his sword, and having struck the servant of the chief priest, he took off his ear.
52. Then saith Jesus to him, `Turn back thy sword to its place; for all who did take the sword, by the sword shall perish;
53. dost thou think that I am not able now to call upon my Father, and He will place beside me more than twelve legions of messengers?
54. how then may the Writings be fulfilled, that thus it behoveth to happen?'
