8 But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
Having seen then the disciples (of him *k) became indignant saying; For what purpose [is] the waste this?
9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
It was possible for this (fragrant oil *K) to be sold for much and to be given to [the] poor.
10 When Jesus understood it, he said to them, Why trouble you the woman? for she has worked a good work on me.
Having known [this] now Jesus said to them; Why trouble do you cause to the woman? A work for beautiful she did to Me myself.
11 For you have the poor always with you; but me you have not always.
Always for the poor you have with yourselves, Me myself however not always you have.
12 For in that she has poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.
In pouring for this [woman] fragrant oil this on the body of Mine for to bury Me she did [it].

And He said; do go into the city unto a certain man and do tell him: the Teacher says; The time for Me near is, with you I keep the Passover with the disciples of Mine.’

22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say to him, Lord, is it I?
And being grieved exceedingly they began to say to Him one each (of them: *k) surely not ever I myself is it, Lord?
23 And he answered and said, He that dips his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
And answering He said; The [one] having dipped with Me the hand in the dish he Me will betray.
24 The Son of man goes as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
Indeed the Son of Man goes even as it has been written about Him, woe however for the man that [one] through whom the Son of Man is betrayed; Better was being for him if not was born the man that.

32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
After however to raise Me I will go before you into Galilee.
33 Peter answered and said to him, Though all men shall be offended because of you, yet will I never be offended.
Answering now Peter said to Him; If (even *k) all will fall away because of You, I myself (but *k) never will fall away.
34 Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you, That this night, before the cock crow, you shall deny me thrice.
was saying to him Jesus; Amen I say to you that during this night before [the] rooster crowing three times you will deny Me.
35 Peter said to him, Though I should die with you, yet will I not deny you. Likewise also said all the disciples.
Says to Him Peter; Even if Even if it shall be necessary for me with You to die, certainly not You (I will deny. *NK+o) Likewise (now *o) also all the disciples said.

And having taken with [Him] Peter and the two sons of Zebedee He began to be sorrowful and to be deeply distressed.
38 Then says he to them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even to death: tarry you here, and watch with me.

39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as you will.
And (having gone forward *NK+o) a little He fell upon face of Him praying and saying; Father of Mine, if possible it is, should pass from Me cup this; Nevertheless not [it is] as I myself wish but as You.
40 And he comes to the disciples, and finds them asleep, and says to Peter, What, could you not watch with me one hour?
And He comes to the disciples and finds them sleeping And He says to Peter; Thus not were you able one hour to watch with Me?
41 Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
do watch and do pray that not you may enter into temptation. The indeed spirit [is] willing however the flesh weak.
42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, your will be done.
Again for a second time having gone away He prayed saying; Father of Mine, if not is possible this (cup *K) to pass (from Me *k) only unless it I shall drink, [then] should be [done] the will of You.
43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
And having come again (He found *N+kO) them sleeping; were for of them the eyes wearied.
44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.

Then He comes to the disciples (of him *k) and says to them; Sleep later on and take your rest; Behold has drawn near the hour, and the Son of Man is betrayed into [the] hands of sinners.

And yet when he is speaking behold Judas one of the Twelve came, and with him a crowd great with swords and clubs from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48 Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.
The [one] then betraying Him gave to them a sign saying; Whomever maybe I may kiss, He himself it is; do seize Him.
49 And immediately he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.
And immediately having come up to Jesus he said; Greetings Rabbi, and kissed Him.
50 And Jesus said to him, Friend, why are you come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus and took him.
And Jesus said to him; Friend, [do] for (what *N+kO) you are come. Then having come to [him] they laid hands on Jesus and seized Him.
51 And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest’s, and smote off his ear.
And behold one of those with Jesus having stretched out the hand drew the sword of him, and having struck the servant of the high priest cut off of him the ear.
52 Then said Jesus to him, Put up again your sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
Then says to him Jesus; do return the sword of you into the place of it; all for those having taken [the] sword by [the] sword (will perish. *NK+o)
53 Think you that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
Or think you that not I am able to call upon the Father of Mine, and He will furnish to Me presently (more *N+kO) (than *k) twelve (legions *N+kO) of angels?
54 But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
How then may be fulfilled the Scriptures that so it must be being?
55 In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are you come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and you laid no hold on me.
In that [very] hour said Jesus to the crowds; As against a robber did you come out with swords and clubs to capture Me? Every day (to you *KO) in the temple I was sitting teaching and not you did seize Me.
56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
This then all has come to pass that may be fulfilled the Scriptures of the prophets. Then the disciples all having forsaken Him fled.
57 And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

62 And the high priest arose, and said to him, Answer you nothing? what is it which these witness against you?
And having stood up the high priest said to Him; No [thing] answer you? What these you do witness against?
63 But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said to him, I adjure you by the living God, that you tell us whether you be the Christ, the Son of God.
And Jesus was silent. And (answering *k) the high priest said to Him; I adjure you by God the living that us may you tell if You yourself are the Christ the Son of God.
64 Jesus says to him, You have said: nevertheless I say to you, Hereafter shall you see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Says to him Jesus; You yourself have said. But I say to you; from now you will behold the Son of Man sitting at [the] right hand of Power and coming upon the clouds of heaven.
65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He has spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now you have heard his blasphemy.
Then the high priest tears the garments of him saying (that: *k) He has blasphemed; why any more need have we of witnesses? Behold now you have heard the blasphemy (of him. *k)
66 What think you? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.

68 Saying, Prophesy to us, you Christ, Who is he that smote you?

69 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came to him, saying, You also were with Jesus of Galilee.
And Peter was sitting outside in the court. and came to him one servant girl saying; Also You yourself were with Jesus the Galilean.
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what you say.
And he denied before (them *k) all saying; Not I know what you say.
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said to them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.
Having gone out then (him *k) to the porch saw him another [servant girl] and she says (to those *NK+o) there; (and *ko) This [man] was with Jesus of Nazareth.

And again he denied with an oath that Not I know the man.
73 And after a while came to him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely you also are one of them; for your speech denudes you.
After a little while also having come to [him] those having stood they said to Peter; Surely also you yourself of them are; even for the speech of you away you gives.
