The Agony in the Garden     Mark 14: 32-42

 

 

32 And they went to a place which was called Gethsem'ane; and he said

to his disciples, "Sit here, while I pray." 33 And he took with him Peter and

James and John, and began to be greatly distressed and troubled.
34 And he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain

here, and watch." 35 And going a little farther, he fell on the ground and

prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him. 36 And he

said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee; remove this cup from

me; yet not what I will, but what thou wilt." 37 And he came and found them

sleeping, and he said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch

one hour? 38 Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation; the

spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." 39 And again he went away

and prayed, saying the same words. 40 And again he came and found them

sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to

answer him. 41 And he came the third time, and said to them, "Are you still

sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough; the hour has come; the Son of

man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42 Rise, let us be going; see, my

betrayer is at hand."
