Chapter 22

1


 

  And the feast of the unleavened food was coming nigh, that is called Passover,  

 

 

-

2


 

  and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take him up, for they were afraid of the people.  

 

 

-

3


 

  And the Adversary entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve,  

 

 

-

4


 

  and he, having gone away, spake with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver him up to them,  

 

 

-

5


 

  and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,  

 

 

-

6


 

  and he agreed, and was seeking a favourable season to deliver him up to them without tumult.  

 

 

-

7


 

  And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,  

 

 

-

8


 

  and he sent Peter and John, saying, 'Having gone on, prepare to us the passover, that we may eat;'  

 

 

-

9


 

  and they said to him, 'Where wilt thou that we might prepare?'  

 

 

-

10


 

  And he said to them, 'Lo, in your entering into the city, there shall meet you a man, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him to the house where he doth go in,  

 

 

-

11


 

  and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where the passover with my disciples I may eat?  

 

 

-

12


 

  and he shall show you a large upper room furnished, there make ready;'  

 

 

-

13


 

  and they, having gone away, found as he hath said to them, and they made ready the passover.  

 

 

-

14


 

  And when the hour come, he reclined (at meat), and the twelve apostles with him,  

 

 

-

15


 

  and he said unto them, 'With desire I did desire to eat this passover with you before my suffering,  

 

 

-

16


 

  for I say to you, that no more may I eat of it till it may be fulfilled in the reign of God.'  

 

 

-

17


 

  And having taken a cup, having given thanks, he said, 'Take this and divide to yourselves,  

 

 

-

18


 

  for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine till the reign of God may come.'  

 

 

-

19


 

  And having taken bread, having given thanks, he brake and gave to them, saying, 'This is my body, that for you is being given, this do ye -- to remembrance of me.'  

 

 

-

20


 

  In like manner, also, the cup after the supping, saying, 'This cup [is] the new covenant in my blood, that for you is being poured forth.  

 

 

-

21


 

  'But, lo, the hand of him delivering me up [is] with me on the table,  

 

 

-

22


 

  and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but wo to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'  

 

 

-

23


 

  And they began to reason among themselves, who then of them it may be, who is about to do this thing.  

 

 

-

24


 

  And there happened also a strife among them -- who of them is accounted to be greater.  

 

 

-

25


 

  And he said to them, 'The kings of the nations do exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority upon them are called benefactors;  

 

 

-

26


 

  but ye [are] not so, but he who is greater among you -- let him be as the younger; and he who is leading, as he who is ministering;  

 

 

-

27


 

  for who is greater? he who is reclining (at meat), or he who is ministering? is it not he who is reclining (at meat)? and I -- I am in your midst as he who is ministering.  

 

 

-

28


 

  'And ye -- ye are those who have remained with me in my temptations,  

 

 

-

29


 

  and I appoint to you, as my Father did appoint to me, a kingdom,  

 

 

-

30


 

  that ye may eat and may drink at my table, in my kingdom, and may sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.'  

 

 

-

31


 

  And the Lord said, 'Simon, Simon, lo, the Adversary did ask you for himself to sift as the wheat,  

 

 

-

32


 

  and I besought for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and thou, when thou didst turn, strengthen thy brethren.'  

 

 

-

33


 

  And he said to him, 'Sir, with thee I am ready both to prison and to death to go;'  

 

 

-

34


 

  and he said, 'I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'  

 

 

-

35


 

  And he said to them, 'When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and sandals, did ye lack anything?' and they said, 'Nothing.'  

 

 

-

36


 

  Then said he to them, 'But, now, he who is having a bag, let him take [it] up, and in like manner also a scrip; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,  

 

 

-

37


 

  for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'  

 

 

-

38


 

  And they said, 'Sir, lo, here [are] two swords;' and he said to them, 'It is sufficient.'  

 

 

-

39


 

  And having gone forth, he went on, according to custom, to the mount of the Olives, and his disciples also followed him,  

 

 

-

40


 

  and having come to the place, he said to them, 'Pray ye not to enter into temptation.'  

 

 

-

41


 

  And he was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone's cast, and having fallen on the knees he was praying,  

 

 

-

42


 

  saying, 'Father, if Thou be counselling to make this cup pass from me --; but, not my will, but Thine be done.' --  

 

 

-

43


 

  And there appeared to him a messenger from heaven strengthening him;  

 

 

-

44


 

  and having been in agony, he was more earnestly praying, and his sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling upon the ground.  

 

 

-

45


 

  And having risen up from the prayer, having come unto the disciples, he found them sleeping from the sorrow,  

 

 

-

46


 

  and he said to them, 'Why do ye sleep? having risen, pray that ye may not enter into temptation.'  

 

 

-

47


 

  And while he is speaking, lo, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them, and he came nigh to Jesus to kiss him,  

 

 

-

48


 

  and Jesus said to him, 'Judas, with a kiss the Son of Man dost thou deliver up?'  

 

 

-

49


 

  And those about him, having seen what was about to be, said to him, 'Sir, shall we smite with a sword?'  

 

 

-

50


 

  And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,  

 

 

-

51


 

  and Jesus answering said, 'Suffer ye thus far,' and having touched his ear, he healed him.  

 

 

-

52


 

  And Jesus said to those having come upon him -- chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders -- 'As upon a robber have ye come forth, with swords and sticks?  

 

 

-

53


 

  while daily I was with you in the temple, ye did stretch forth no hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.'  

 

 

-

54


 

  And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,  

 

 

-

55


 

  and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,  

 

 

-

56


 

  and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, 'And this one was with him!'  

 

 

-

57


 

  and he disowned him, saying, 'Woman, I have not known him.'  

 

 

-

58


 

  And after a little, another having seen him, said, 'And thou art of them!' and Peter said, 'Man, I am not.'  

 

 

-

59


 

  And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, 'Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'  

 

 

-

60


 

  and Peter said, 'Man, I have not known what thou sayest;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.  

 

 

-

61


 

  And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him -- 'Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;'  

 

 

-

62


 

  and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.  

 

 

-

63


 

  And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking him, beating [him];  

 

 

-

64


 

  and having blindfolded him, they were striking him on the face, and were questioning him, saying, 'Prophesy who he is who smote thee?'  

 

 

-

65


 

  and many other things, speaking evilly, they spake in regard to him.  

 

 

-

66


 

  And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led him up to their own sanhedrim,  

 

 

-

67


 

  saying, 'If thou be the Christ, tell us.' And he said to them, 'If I may tell you, ye will not believe;  

 

 

-

68


 

  and if I also question [you], ye will not answer me or send me away;  

 

 

-

69


 

  henceforth, there shall be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.'  

 

 

-

70


 

  And they all said, 'Thou, then, art the Son of God?' and he said unto them, 'Ye say [it], because I am;'  

 

 

-

71


 

  and they said, 'What need yet have we of testimony? for we ourselves did hear [it] from his mouth.'
