Luke 22
1 AND the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was at hand.
Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, drew near.
2 And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might destroy him; for they were afraid of the people.
The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might kill him, for they feared the people.
3 Then entered Satan into Judas called Iscariot, though he was of the number of the twelve.
Satan entered into Judas, who was called Iscariot, who was numbered with the twelve.
4 And he went and conversed with the chief priests and the captains, by what means he could betray him unto them.
He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.
5 And they were glad, and agreed with him to give him a sum of money.
They were glad, and agreed to give him money.
6 And he gave them his promise, and sought the favourable opportunity to betray him to them, in the absence of the multitude.
He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the crowd.
7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, on which the passover must be killed.
The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover lamb must be sacrificed.
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go, prepare for us the passover, that we may eat it.
He sent Peter and John, saying, "Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat."
9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare it?
They said to him, "Where do you want us to prepare?"
10 And he said unto them, Lo! as you are at the entrance of the city, there will a man meet you, carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whither he is going.
He said to them, "Look, 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 master of that family, The teacher saith to thee, Where is the dining-room, in which I can eat the passover with my disciples?
Tell the master of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"'
12 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.
He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there."
13 And they going away, found it just as he had told them: and they made ready the passover.
They went, found things as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
When the hour had come, he reclined at the table, and the apostles joined him.
15 And he said unto them, With earnest desire have I longed to eat this passover with you before I suffer:
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 no more ever eat of it, until it shall be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
for I say to you, I will not eat of it again until it is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God."
17 And taking the cup, after having given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide among yourselves:
He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, "Take this, and share it among yourselves,
18 for I say unto you, that I shall no more drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God come.
for I tell you, from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."
19 And taking a loaf, he gave thanks, and brake, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: do this in remembrance of me.
He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, "This is my body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me."
20 And the cup in like manner, after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
Likewise, he took the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.
21 But lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me at the table.
But look, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.
22 And the Son of man indeed goeth, as is decreed: but wo to that man by whom he is betrayed!
The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed."
23 And they began to question among themselves, who it could possibly be of them who should do this thing.
They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.
24 Now it came to pass, that there was also a contention among them, even which of them should be accounted to be the greatest.
There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.
25 And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they who exercise authority over them are called 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 ye shall not act thus: but the superior among you, let him be as the junior; and he that presideth, as he that serveth.
But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.
27 For which is the greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that waits? is not he that sitteth at table? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth.
For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.
28 Ye are they who have continued with me during my trials.
But you are those who have continued with me in my trials.
29 And I appoint you, as my Father hath appointed me, a kingdom;
I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me,
30 that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and be seated on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, lo! Satan hath earnestly sought you, that he might sift you as wheat:
And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon, look, Satan has demanded to have you all, to sift you like wheat,
32 but I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail: and when thou art returned, stablish thy brethren.
but I prayed for you, that your faith would not fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers."
33 Then he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, to prison, and to death!
He said to him, "Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death."
34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before thou shalt thrice deny having known 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 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, or scrip, or sandals, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.
He said to them, "When I sent you out without money bag, and pack, and shoes, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing."
36 Then said he to them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him also take a scrip: and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
Then he said to them, "But now, whoever has a money bag must take it, and likewise a pack. Whoever has none, must sell his cloak, and buy a sword.
37 For I tell you, that what hath already been written must be fulfilled in me, namely, “He was numbered with the transgressors:” for the things also concerning me draw to their period.
For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: 'And he was numbered with transgressors.' For that which concerns me has an end."
38 Then they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords, and he said to them, It is enough.
They said, "Lord, look, here are two swords." He said to them, "That is enough."
39 And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.
40 And when he came to the spot, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.
When he was at the place, he said to them, "Pray that you do not enter into temptation."
41 And he withdrew from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeling down, he prayed,
He was withdrawn from them about a stone's throw, and he knelt down and prayed,
42 saying, Father, if thou wilt, remove this cup from me! nevertheless, not my will, but thine, be done.
saying, "Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done."
43 And an angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.
And an angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him.
44 And being in an agony, he prayed with greater intenseness: and his sweat was as clots of blood falling on the ground.
Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.
45 And when he rose up from prayer, on coming to his disciples, he found them sleeping from sorrow.
When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of grief,
46 And he said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise up, and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
and said to them, "Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation."
47 And while he was yet speaking, behold a multitude, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and approached Jesus to kiss him.
While he was still speaking, look, a crowd came, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him.
48 Then said Jesus unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?
But Jesus said to him, "Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?"
49 Then when they who were about him saw what was ready to happen, they said unto him, Lord, shall we strike with the sword?
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 at a servant of the high-priest, and cut off his right ear.
A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 Then Jesus, addressing them, said, Permit me thus far: and touching his ear, he healed him.
But Jesus answered and said, "No more of this." Then he touched his ear and healed him.
52 Then said Jesus to the chief priests and captains of the temple, and to the elders who were come forth against him, Are ye come out as against a robber, with swords and staves?
Jesus 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 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched out no hands upon me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
When I was with you in the temple daily, you did not stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness."
54 Then seizing upon him, they led him away, and brought him into the palace of the high-priest. But 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 And as they had lighted a fire in the middle of the hall, and had seated themselves in a company, Peter sat down in the midst of them.
When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter sat among them.
56 But a certain maid-servant who sat at the fire, eyeing him, and looking at him stedfastly, said, This man was also with him.
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 he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
But he denied it, saying, "Woman, I do not know him."
58 And after a little while another seeing him, said, Surely thou art one of them. Then said Peter, 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 And at about an hour’s distance, another person strongly asserted, saying, Of a certainty this fellow was also 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 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And instantly, while he was yet speaking, the cock crew.
But Peter said, "Man, I do not know what you are talking about." Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
61 And the Lord, turning round, looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, That before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
The Lord turned, and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord's word, how he said to him, "Before the rooster crows today you will deny me three times."
62 And Peter going without, wept bitterly.
And he went out, and wept bitterly.
63 And the men who held Jesus insulted him, beating him with rods;
The men who held him began mocking and beating him.
64 and blindfolding him, smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is he that struck thee?
And having blindfolded him, they were striking his face and kept asking him, saying, "Prophesy, who is the one who struck you?"
65 And many other things, blaspheming, spake they against him.
They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.
66 And when the day broke, the elders of the people and the chief priests and scribes assembled, and brought him into their sanhedrim, saying,
As soon as it was day, the council of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,
67 If thou art the Messiah, tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:
"If you are the Christ, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you won't believe,
68 and if I shall ask you any question, ye will neither answer me, nor let me go free.
and if I ask, you will not answer me, or let me go.
69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit 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 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Yourselves say that I am.
They all said, "Are you then the Son of God?" He said to them, "You say that I am."
71 Then they said, What further need have we of witness? for we have heard it from his own mouth.
They said, "Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth."
