14After two days it was the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take Him by trickery and put Him to death.G1161G1417G2250G2258G3957G2532G3326G106G2532G749G2532G1122G2212G4459G2902G846G1722G1388G6152But they said, "Not during the feast, lest there be an uproar of the people."G1161G3004G3361G1722G1859G3379G2071G2351G29923And being in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper, as He sat at the table, a woman came having an alabaster flask of very costly oil of spikenard. Then she broke the flask and poured it on His head.G2532G846G5607G1722G963G1722G3614G4613G3015G846G2621G2064G1135G2192G211G3464G3487G4101G4185G2532G4937G211G2708G2596G846G27764But there were some who were indignant among themselves, and said, "Why was this fragrant oil wasted?G1161G2258G5100G23G4314G1438G2532G3004G1519G5101G1096G3778G684G3464G10965"For it might have been sold for more than three hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they criticized her sharply.G1063G5124G1410G4097G1883G5145G1220G2532G1325G4434G2532G1690G8466But Jesus said, "Let her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a good work for Me.G1161G2424G2036G863G846G863G5101G2873G3930G846G2038G2570G2041G1519G16917"For you have the poor with you always, and whenever you wish you may do them good; but Me you do not have always.G1063G2192G4434G3326G1438G3842G2532G3752G2309G1410G4160G846G2095G1161G1691G2192G3756G38428"She has done what she could. She has come beforehand to anoint My body for burial.G4160G3739G3778G846G2192G4301G3462G3450G4983G1519G17809"Assuredly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told as a memorial to her."G281G3004G5213G3699G302G5124G2098G2784G1519G3650G2889G2532G3739G3778G846G4160G2980G1519G3422G84610Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went to the chief priests to betray Him to them.G2532G2455G2469G1520G1427G565G4314G749G2443G3860G846G84611And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. So he sought how he might conveniently betray Him.G1161G191G5463G2532G1861G1325G846G694G2532G2212G4459G2122G3860G84612Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they killed the Passover lamb, His disciples said to Him, "Where do You want us to go and prepare, that You may eat the Passover?"G2532G4413G2250G106G3753G2380G3957G846G3101G3004G846G4226G2309G565G2090G2443G5315G395713And He sent out two of His disciples and said to them, "Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.G2532G649G1417G846G3101G2532G3004G846G5217G1519G4172G2532G528G5213G444G941G2765G5204G190G84614"Wherever he goes in, say to the master of the house, 'The Teacher says, "Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"'G2532G3699G1437G1525G2036G3617G3754G1320G3004G4226G2076G2646G3699G5315G3957G3326G3450G310115"Then he will show you a large upper room, furnished and prepared; there make ready for us."G2532G846G1166G5213G3173G508G4766G2092G1563G2090G225416So His disciples went out, and came into the city, and found it just as He had said to them; and they prepared the Passover.G2532G846G3101G1831G2532G2064G1519G4172G2532G2147G2531G2036G846G2532G2090G395717In the evening He came with the twelve.G2532G1096G3798G2064G3326G142718Now as they sat and ate, Jesus said, "Assuredly, I say to you, one of you who eats with Me will betray Me."G2532G846G345G2532G2068G2424G2036G281G3004G5213G3754G1520G1537G5216G3588G2068G3326G1700G3860G316519And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to Him one by one, "Is it I?" And another said, "Is it I?"G1161G756G3076G2532G3004G846G1527G3385G1473G2532G243G3385G147320He answered and said to them, "It is one of the twelve, who dips with Me in the dish.G1161G611G2036G846G1520G1537G1427G1686G3326G1700G1519G516521"The Son of Man indeed goes just as it is written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had never been born."G5207G444G3303G5217G2531G1125G4012G846G1161G3759G1565G444G1223G3739G5207G444G3860G2570G2258G1565G444G1487G846G1080G3756G108022And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."G2532G846G2068G2424G2983G740G2127G2806G2532G1325G846G2532G2036G2983G5315G5124G2076G3450G498323Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it.G2532G2983G4221G2168G1325G846G2532G3956G4095G1537G84624And He said to them, "This is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many.G2532G2036G846G5124G2076G3450G129G2537G1242G3588G1632G4012G418325"Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."G281G3004G5213G3364G4095G3754G3765G1537G1081G288G2193G1565G2250G3752G4095G846G2537G1722G932G231626And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.G2532G5214G1831G1519G3735G163627Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written: 'I will strike the Shepherd, And the sheep will be scattered.'G2532G2424G3004G846G3754G3956G4624G1722G1722G1698G5026G3571G3754G1125G3960G4166G2532G4263G128728"But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee."G235G3326G3165G1453G4254G5209G1519G105629Peter said to Him, "Even if all are made to stumble, yet I will not be."G1161G4074G5346G846G2532G1487G3956G4624G235G3756G147330Jesus said to him, "Assuredly, I say to you that today, even this night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times."G2532G2424G3004G846G281G3004G4671G3754G4594G1722G5026G3571G4250G2228G220G5455G1364G533G3165G515131But he spoke more vehemently, "If I have to die with You, I will not deny You!" And they all said likewise.G1161G3004G3123G1537G4053G1437G3165G1163G4880G4671G3364G533G4571G3364G5615G1161G2532G3004G395632Then they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here while I pray."G2532G2064G1519G5564G3739G3686G1068G2532G3004G846G3101G2523G5602G2193G433633And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be troubled and deeply distressed.G2532G3880G3326G1438G4074G2532G2385G2532G2491G2532G756G1568G2532G8534Then He said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch."G2532G3004G846G3450G5590G2076G4036G2193G2288G3306G5602G2532G112735He went a little farther, and fell on the ground, and prayed that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him.G2532G4281G3397G4098G1909G1093G2532G4336G2443G1487G2076G1415G5610G3928G575G84636And He said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible for You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You will."G2532G3004G5G3962G3956G1415G4671G3911G5124G4221G575G1700G235G3756G5101G1473G2309G235G5101G477137Then He came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not watch one hour?G2532G2064G2532G2147G846G2518G2532G3004G4074G4613G2518G2480G3756G1127G3391G561038"Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."G1127G2532G4336G3363G1525G1519G3986G4151G3303G4289G1161G4561G77239Again He went away and prayed, and spoke the same words.G2532G3825G565G4336G2036G846G305640And when He returned, He found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him.G2532G5290G2147G846G2518G3825G1063G846G3788G2258G916G2532G3756G1492G5101G611G84641Then He came the third time and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.G2532G2064G5154G2532G3004G846G2518G3063G2532G373G566G5610G2064G2400G5207G444G3860G1519G5495G26842"Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand."G1453G71G2400G3860G3165G144843And immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.G2532G2112G846G2089G2980G3854G2455G1520G5607G1427G2532G3326G846G4183G3793G3326G3162G2532G3586G3844G749G2532G1122G2532G424544Now His betrayer had given them a signal, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the One; seize Him and lead Him away safely."G1161G3860G846G1325G846G4953G3004G3739G302G5368G846G2076G2902G846G2532G520G80645As soon as He had come, immediately he went up to Him and said to Him, "Rabbi, Rabbi!" and kissed Him.G2532G2064G4334G2112G846G3004G4461G4461G2532G2705G84646Then they laid their hands on Him and took Him.G1161G1911G846G5495G1909G846G2532G2902G84647And one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.G1161G5100G1520G3936G4685G3162G3817G1401G749G2532G851G846G562148Then Jesus answered and said to them, "Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me?G2532G2424G611G2036G846G1831G5613G1909G3027G3326G3162G2532G3586G4815G316549"I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me. But the Scriptures must be fulfilled."G2252G2250G2596G4314G5209G1722G2411G1321G2532G2902G3165G3756G235G1124G2443G413750Then they all forsook Him and fled.G2532G3956G863G846G534351Now a certain young man followed Him, having a linen cloth thrown around his naked body. And the young men laid hold of him,G2532G190G846G1520G5100G3495G4616G4016G1909G1131G2532G3495G2902G84652and he left the linen cloth and fled from them naked.G1161G2641G4616G5343G575G846G113153And they led Jesus away to the high priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, the elders, and the scribes.G2532G520G2424G520G4314G749G2532G846G4905G3956G749G2532G4245G2532G112254But Peter followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest. And he sat with the servants and warmed himself at the fire.G2532G4074G190G846G3113G575G2193G2080G1519G833G749G2532G2258G4775G3326G5257G2532G2328G4314G545755Now the chief priests and all the council sought testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, but found none.G1161G749G2532G3650G4892G2212G3141G2596G2424G1519G2289G846G2289G2532G2147G375656For many bore false witness against Him, but their testimonies did not agree.G1063G4183G5576G2596G846G2532G3141G2258G2470G3756G225857Then some rose up and bore false witness against Him, saying,G2532G450G5100G5576G2596G846G300458"We heard Him say, 'I will destroy this temple made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.'"G3754G2249G191G846G3004G3754G1473G2647G5126G3485G5499G2532G1223G5140G2250G3618G243G88659But not even then did their testimony agree.G2532G3761G3779G2470G846G3141G2258G247060And the high priest stood up in the midst and asked Jesus, saying, "Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?"G2532G749G450G1519G3319G1905G2424G3004G3756G611G3762G5101G3778G2649G467561But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?"G1161G4623G2532G611G3762G3825G749G1905G846G2532G3004G846G1488G4771G5547G5207G212862Jesus said, "I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven."G1161G2424G2036G1473G1510G2532G3700G5207G444G2521G1537G1188G1411G2532G2064G3326G3507G377263Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "What further need do we have of witnesses?G1161G749G1284G846G5509G3004G5101G5532G2192G2089G314464"You have heard the blasphemy! What do you think?" And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death.G191G988G5101G5316G5213G1161G3956G2632G846G1511G1777G228865Then some began to spit on Him, and to blindfold Him, and to beat Him, and to say to Him, "Prophesy!" And the officers struck Him with the palms of their hands.G2532G5100G756G1716G846G2532G4028G846G4383G2532G2852G846G2532G3004G846G4395G2532G5257G906G846G447566Now as Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came.G2532G4074G5607G2736G1722G833G2064G3391G3814G74967And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You also were with Jesus of Nazareth."G2532G1492G4074G2328G1689G846G3004G2532G4771G2532G2258G3326G2424G347968But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you are saying." And he went out on the porch, and a rooster crowed.G1161G720G3004G1492G3756G3761G1987G5101G4771G3004G2532G1831G1854G1519G4259G2532G220G545569And the servant girl saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by, "This is one of them."G2532G3814G1492G846G3825G756G3004G3936G3754G3778G2076G1537G84670But he denied it again. And a little later those who stood by said to Peter again, "Surely you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech shows it."G1161G720G3825G2532G3397G3326G3936G3004G3825G4074G230G1488G1537G846G2532G1063G1488G1057G2532G4675G2981G366271Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know this Man of whom you speak!"G1161G756G332G2532G3660G3754G1492G3756G5126G444G3739G300472A second time the rooster crowed. Then Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And when he thought about it, he wept.G2532G1537G1208G220G5455G2532G4074G363G4487G3739G2424G2036G846G3754G4250G220G5455G1364G533G3165G5151G2532G1911G2799
