Luke 22
1 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,
Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.
2 and the chief priests and scribes were looking for a way to put Jesus to death; for they feared the people.
The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.
3 Then Satan entered Judas Iscariot, who was one of the Twelve.
Satan entered into Judah, who was also called Iscariot, who was counted with the twelve.
4 And Judas went to discuss with the chief priests and temple officers how he might betray Jesus to them.
He went away and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.
5 They were delighted and agreed to give him money.
They were glad, and agreed to give him money.
6 Judas consented, and began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them in the absence of a crowd.
He consented and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.
7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb was to be sacrificed.
The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed.
8 Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare for us to eat the Passover.”
Yeshua sent Peter and Yochanan, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”
9 “Where do You want us to prepare it?” they asked.
They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”
10 He answered, “When you enter the city, a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him to the house he enters,
He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters.
11 and say to the owner of that house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?’
Tell the master of the house, ‘The Rabbi says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’
12 And he will show you a large upper room, already furnished. Make preparations there.”
He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”
13 So they went and found it just as Jesus had told them. And they prepared the Passover.
They went, found things as Yeshua had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 When the hour had come, Jesus reclined at the table with His apostles.
When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve emissaries.
15 And He said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before My suffering.
He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer,
16 For I tell you that I will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in God’s Kingdom.”
17 After taking the cup, He gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves.
He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this and share it amongst yourselves,
18 For I tell you that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.”
for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until God’s Kingdom comes.”
19 And He took the bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.”
20 In the same way, after supper He took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is poured out for you.
Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.
21 Look! The hand of My betrayer is with Mine on the table.
But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.
22 Indeed, the Son of Man will go as it has been determined, but woe to that man who betrays Him.”
The Son of Man indeed goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”
23 Then they began to question among themselves which of them was going to do this.
They began to question amongst themselves which of them it was who would do this thing.
24 A dispute also arose among the disciples as to which of them would be considered the greatest.
A dispute also arose amongst them, which of them was considered to be greatest.
25 So Jesus declared, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority over them call themselves benefactors.
He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’
26 But you shall not be like them. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who leads like the one who serves.
But not so with you. Rather, the one who is greater amongst you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.
27 For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines? But I am among you as one who serves.
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 amongst you as one who serves.
28 You are the ones who have stood by Me in My trials.
“But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.
29 And I bestow on you a kingdom, just as My Father has bestowed one on Me,
I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,
30 so that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
31 Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat.
The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat,
32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith will not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”
but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.”
33 “Lord,” said Peter, “I am ready to go with You even to prison and to death.”
He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”
34 But Jesus replied, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”
He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”
35 Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you out without purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?” “Nothing,” they answered.
He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”
36 “Now, however,” He told them, “the one with a purse should take it, and likewise a bag; and the one without a sword should sell his cloak and buy one.
Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
37 For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in Me: ‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For what is written about Me is reaching its fulfillment.”
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 is being fulfilled.”
38 So they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.” “That is enough,” He answered.
They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.” He said to them, “That is enough.”
39 Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed Him.
He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.
40 When He came to the place, He told them, “Pray that you will not enter into temptation.”
When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”
41 And He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, where He knelt down and prayed,
He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed,
42 “Father, if You are willing, take this cup from Me. Yet not My will, but Yours be done.”
saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”
43 Then an angel from heaven appeared to Him and strengthened Him.
An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.
44 And in His anguish, He prayed more earnestly, and His sweat became like drops of blood falling to the ground.
Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.
45 When Jesus rose from prayer and returned to the disciples, He found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow.
When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief,
46 “Why are you sleeping?” He asked. “Get up and pray so that you will not enter into temptation.”
and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
47 While He was still speaking, a crowd arrived, led by the man called Judas, one of the Twelve. He approached Jesus to kiss Him.
While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judah, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Yeshua to kiss him.
48 But Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
But Yeshua said to him, “Judah, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 Those around Jesus saw what was about to happen and said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”
When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”
50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.
A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And He touched the man’s ear and healed him.
But Yeshua answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, temple officers, and elders who had come for Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as you would against an outlaw?
Yeshua said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
53 Every day I was with you in the temple courts, and you did not lay a hand on Me. But this hour belongs to you and to the power of darkness.”
When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”
54 Then they seized Jesus, led Him away, and took Him into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed at a distance.
They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance.
55 When those present had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.
When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat amongst them.
56 A servant girl saw him seated in the firelight and looked intently at him. “This man also was with Him,” she said.
A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”
57 But Peter denied it. “Woman, I do not know Him,” he said.
He denied Yeshua, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”
58 A short time later, someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”
After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!” But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”
59 About an hour later, another man insisted, “Certainly this man was with Him, for he too is a Galilean.”
After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”
60 “Man, I do not know what you are talking about,” Peter replied. While he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word that the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”
The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.”
62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.
He went out, and wept bitterly.
63 The men who were holding Jesus began to mock Him and beat Him.
The men who held Yeshua mocked him and beat him.
64 They blindfolded Him and kept demanding, “Prophesy! Who hit You?”
Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?”
65 And they said many other blasphemous things against Him.
They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.
66 At daybreak the council of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and scribes, met together. They led Jesus into their Sanhedrin and said,
As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,
67 “If You are the Christ, tell us.” Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe.
“If you are the Messiah, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe,
68 And if I ask you a question, you will not answer.
and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.
69 But from now on the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
70 So they all asked, “Are You then the Son of God?” He replied, “You say that I am.”
They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?” He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”
71 “Why do we need any more testimony?” they declared. “We have heard it for ourselves from His own lips.”
They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”
