< Matthew 26 >

1 And it came to pass, when Jesus ended all these words, he said unto his disciples:
And it came to pass when finished Jesus all words these, He said to the disciples of Him;
2 Ye know that, after two days, the passover, taketh place, —and, the Son of Man, is to be delivered up, to be crucified.
You know that after two days the Passover takes place, and the Son of Man is delivered over to be crucified.
3 Then, were gathered together, the High-priests and the Elders of the people, into the court of the High-priest who was called Caiaphas;
Then were gathered together the chief priests (and scribes *K) and the elders of the people in the courtyard of the high priest who is being named Caiaphas
4 and they took counsel together, in order that, Jesus, by guile, they might secure, and slay.
and they plotted together in order that Jesus by guile they may seize and may kill.
5 They were saying, however: Not during the feast, lest, an uproar, arise among the people.
They were saying however; Not [seize him] during the feast, that not a riot may happen among the people.
6 But, Jesus, happening to be in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
And of Jesus having been in Bethany in [the] house of Simon the leper
7 there came unto him a woman, holding an alabaster-jar of costly perfume, and she poured it down upon his head, as he was reclining.
came to Him a woman having an alabaster flask of fragrant oil very costly and poured [it] on (the head *N+kO) when he is reclining.
8 And the disciples, seeing it, were greatly displeased, saying—To what end, this loss?
Having seen then the disciples (of him *k) became indignant saying; For what purpose [is] the waste this?
9 For this could have been sold for much, and given to the destitute.
It was possible for this (fragrant oil *K) to be sold for much and to be given to [the] poor.
10 But Jesus, taking note, said unto them—Why vex ye the woman? for, a seemly work, hath she wrought for 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, always, the destitute, have ye with you, —but, me, not always, have ye;
Always for the poor you have with yourselves, Me myself however not always you have.
12 For, she, pouring this perfume upon my body, so as to prepare me for burial, did it.
In pouring for this [woman] fragrant oil this on the body of Mine for to bury Me she did [it].
13 Verily, I say unto you—Wheresoever this glad-message shall be proclaimed in all the world, also what she did, will be told, as a memorial of her.
Amen I say to you; wherever if shall be proclaimed gospel this in all the world, will be spoken of also that which did this [woman] for a memorial of her.
14 Then, went one of the twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, unto the High-priests,
Then having gone one of the Twelve, the [one] being named Judas Iscariot, to the chief priests
15 and said—What are ye willing to give unto me? and, I, unto you, will deliver him up. And they appointed him thirty pieces of silver.
he said; What are you willing me to give, and I myself and I myself to you will betray Him? And they appointed to him thirty pieces of silver.
16 And, from that time, was he seeking a favourable opportunity that he might, deliver him up.
And from that time he was seeking an opportunity that Him he may betray.
17 And, on the first of the days of unleavened bread, the disciples came unto Jesus, saying—Where wilt thou, that we make ready for thee to eat the passover?
On the now first [day] of the unleavened [bread] came the disciples to Jesus saying (to him: *k) Where wish you [that] (we may prepare *NK+o) for You to eat the Passover?
18 And, he, said—Go your way into the city, unto such-a-one, and say to him, The teacher, saith, My season, is, near, with thee, will I keep the passover, with my disciples.
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.’
19 And the disciples did, as Jesus directed them, and made ready the passover.
And did the disciples as directed them Jesus, and prepared the Passover.
20 And, when, evening, came, he was reclining with the twelve [disciples];
As evening now having arrived He was reclining with the twelve (disciples. *O)
21 and, as they were eating, he said—Verily, I say unto you, One from among you, will deliver me up.
And when were eating they He said; Amen I say to you that one of you will betray Me.
22 And, being exceedingly grieved, they began to be saying to him, each one—Can it be, I, Lord?
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, answering, said—He who hath dipped with me his hand in the bowl, the same, will deliver me up.
And answering He said; The [one] having dipped with Me the hand in the dish he Me will betray.
24 The Son of Man, indeed, goeth his way, according as it is written concerning him, —But alas! for that man, through whom the Son of Man, is being delivered up: Well, had it been for him, if, that man, 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.
25 And Judas, who was delivering him up, answering, said—Can it be, I, Rabbi? He saith unto him—Thou, hast said.
Answering now Judas who is betraying Him said; surely not ever I myself is it, Rabbi? He says to him; You yourself have said.
26 And, as they were eating, Jesus, taking a loaf and blessing, brake, —and, giving to his disciples, said—Take, eat! This, is, my body.
When were eating now they having taken Jesus bread and (having blessed *NK+O) broke [it], and (giving *N+kO) to the disciples (and *k) He said; do take do eat; this is the body of Me.
27 And, taking a cup, and giving thanks, he gave unto them, saying—Drink of it, all of you;
And having taken a cup and having given thanks He gave [it] to them saying; do drink of it all of you;
28 For, this, is my blood of the covenant, which, for many, is to be poured out, for remission of sins.
This for is the blood of Mine of the (of a new *KO) covenant for many being poured out for forgiveness of sins.
29 Moreover, I say unto you—In nowise, will I drink, henceforth, of this produce of the vine, until that day, whensoever I shall drink it with you, new, in the kingdom of my Father.
I say now to you (that: *k) certainly not shall I drink from now of this the (fruit *N+kO) of the vine until the day that when it I may drink with you anew in the kingdom of the Father of Mine.
30 And, having sung praise, they went forth unto the Mount of Olives.
And having sung a hymn they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 Then, Jesus saith unto them—All ye, will find cause of stumbling in me, during this night; for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and, the sheep of the flock, will be scattered abroad;
Then says to them Jesus; All you yourselves will fall away because of Me myself during night this; It has been written for: I will strike the shepherd, and (they will be scattered *N+kO) the sheep of the flock.’
32 But, after my arising, I will go before you into Galilee.
After however to raise Me I will go before you into Galilee.
33 Now Peter, answering, said unto him—Though, all, shall find cause of stumbling in thee, I, shall never find cause of stumbling.
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 saith unto him: Verily, I say unto thee—During this night, before a cock crow, Thrice, wilt thou deny me.
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 saith unto him: Even though it be needful for me, with thee to die, in nowise, will I deny thee. Likewise, all the disciples also, said.
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.
36 Then Jesus cometh with them, into a place called Gethsemane, —and he saith unto his disciples, Sit ye here, while I go yonder and pray.
Then comes with them Jesus to a place being named Gethsemane and He says to the disciples; do sit here until that having gone away over there I may pray.
37 And, taking with him, Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be grieved and to be in great distress.
And having taken with [Him] Peter and the two sons of Zebedee He began to be sorrowful and to be deeply distressed.
38 Then, saith he unto them: Encompassed with grief, is my soul, unto death: Abide ye here, and be watching with me.
Then He says to them (Jesus: *O) Very sorrowful is the soul of Mine until death; do remain here and do watch with Me.
39 And, going forward a little, he fell upon his face, offering prayer, and saying—My Father! If it is possible, let this cup pass from me, —Nevertheless, not as, I, will, but as, thou, wilt.
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 cometh unto his disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and said unto Peter—Thus, powerless are ye, one hour, to watch with me?
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 Be watching and praying, that ye may not enter into temptation: The spirit, indeed, is, eager, but, the flesh, weak.
do watch and do pray that not you may enter into temptation. The indeed spirit [is] willing however the flesh weak.
42 Again, a second time, departing he prayed, saying: My Father! If it is impossible for this to pass, except I, drink, it, Accomplished, be, thy will.
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 coming, he, again, found them sleeping, for their eyes had become heavy.
And having come again (He found *N+kO) them sleeping; were for of them the eyes wearied.
44 And, leaving them, he, again, departed, and prayed a third time, the same word, saying again.
And having left them again having gone away He prayed for [the] third time the same thing having said (again. *no)
45 Then, cometh he unto the disciples, and saith unto them, —Ye are sleeping what time remaineth, and taking your rest: Lo! the hour hath drawn near, and, the Son of Man, is being delivered up into the hands of sinners.
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.
46 Arise! let us be going, —Lo! he that delivereth me up, hath drawn near.
do rise up let us go; Behold he has drawn near who is betraying Me!
47 And, while, yet, he was speaking, lo! Judas, one of the twelve, came, and, with him, a large multitude, with swords and clubs, from the High-priests and Elders of the people.
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 And, he who was delivering him up, gave them a sign, saying—Whomsoever I shall kiss, he, it is, —secure him.
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, straightway, coming unto Jesus, he said—Joy to thee! Rabbi, and eagerly kissed him.
And immediately having come up to Jesus he said; Greetings Rabbi, and kissed Him.
50 But, Jesus, said unto him—Friend! wherefore art thou here? Then, coming forward, they thrust their hands upon Jesus, and secured 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 lo! one of those with Jesus, stretching forth his hand, grasped his sword, and smiting the servant of the High-priest, cut 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, Jesus saith unto him—Put back thy sword into its place, for, all they who take a sword, by a sword, shall perish.
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 Or thinkest thou that I cannot call upon my Father, and he will set near me, even now, more than twelve legions of messengers?
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 How then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that, thus, it must needs come to pass?
How then may be fulfilled the Scriptures that so it must be being?
55 In that hour, said Jesus unto the multitudes: As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me? Daily in the temple, used I to sit teaching, and ye secured me not;
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, this, hath, wholly, come to pass, that, the Scriptures of the prophets, may be fulfilled. Then, the disciples, all forsaking him, 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 who secured Jesus, led him away unto Caiaphas the High-priest, where the Scribes and the Elders gathered themselves together.
Those then having seized Jesus led [Him] away to Caiaphas the high priest where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
58 Now, Peter, was following him afar off, unto the court of the High-priest, —and, entering within, was sitting with the attendants, to see the end.
And Peter was following Him from afar until the court of the high priest, And having entered within he was sitting with the guards to see the outcome.
59 Now, the High-priests and all the High-council, were seeking false-witness against Jesus, that they might, put him to death;
And the chief priests and (elders and *K) the Council whole were seeking false testimony against Jesus so that him (they may put to death *NK+o)
60 and found not any, though many came forward as false-witnesses. At length, however, there came forward, two,
but not any they found (and *k) of many having come forward as false witnesses (not they found. *k) Finally then having come forward two (false witnesses *k)
61 and said: This, man said—I am able to pull down the shrine of God, and, in three days, to, build, it.
they said; This [man] was saying: I am able to destroy the temple of God and in three days to rebuild it (him. *k)
62 And the High-priest, arising, said unto him—Nothing, answerest thou? What are these, against thee bearing witness?
And having stood up the high priest said to Him; No [thing] answer you? What these you do witness against?
63 But, Jesus, was silent. And, the High-priest, said unto him: I put thee on oath, by the Living God, that, to us, thou say—Whether, thou, art 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 saith unto him: Thou, hast said; Moreover, I say unto you—Hereafter, ye will see the Son of Man, sitting on the right hand of power, and coming upon 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 asunder his garments, saying—He hath spoken profanely! What further need have we, of witnesses? Lo! now, ye have heard the profanity!
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 How, to you, doth it seem? And, they, answering, said: Guilty of death, he is.
What you do think? And answering they said; Deserving of death He is.
67 Then, spat they into his face, and buffeted him; and, others, struck him smartly,
Then they spat in the face of Him and struck Him. Others then slapped [Him]
68 saying—Prophesy unto us, O Christ! Who is he that struck thee?
saying; do prophesy to us, Christ, who is the [one] having struck You?
69 Now, Peter, was sitting without, in the court; and there came unto him a certain female servant, saying—Thou also, wast with Jesus, the Galilaean.
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 all, saying—I know not what thou sayest.
And he denied before (them *k) all saying; Not I know what you say.
71 And, when he went out into the porch, another female saw him, and said unto them who were there—This, one was with Jesus the Nazarene.
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.
72 And, again, he denied, with an oath—I know not the man.
And again he denied with an oath that Not I know the man.
73 And, after a little, the by-standers, coming forward, said unto Peter: Truly, thou also, art, from among them, for, thy very speech, maketh thee, manifest.
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.
74 Then, began he to be cursing and swearing—I know not the man! And, straightway, a cock crowed.
Then he began to curse and to swear that Not I know the man! And immediately a rooster crowed.
75 And Peter was put in mind of the declaration of Jesus, of his having said—Before a cock crow, thrice, wilt thou utterly deny me; and, going forth outside, he wept bitterly.
And remembered Peter the declaration of Jesus having said (to him *k) that Before [the] rooster crowing three times you will deny Me, And having gone out he wept bitterly.
