Luke 22:35-53
English Standard Version
Scripture Must Be Fulfilled in Jesus
35 And he said to them, (A)“When I sent you out with no moneybag or knapsack or sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.” 36 He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one. 37 For I tell you that (B)this Scripture must be fulfilled in me: (C)‘And he was numbered with the transgressors.’ For (D)what is written about me has its fulfillment.” 38 And they said, “Look, Lord, here are two (E)swords.” And he said to them, (F)“It is enough.”
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives
39 (G)And he came out and went, (H)as was his custom, to (I)the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him. 40 (J)And when he came to (K)the place, he said to them, (L)“Pray that you may not (M)enter into temptation.” 41 And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and (N)knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, (O)“Father, if you are willing, remove (P)this cup from me. (Q)Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” 43 And there appeared to him (R)an angel from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And (S)being in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.[a] 45 And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow, 46 and he said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise and (T)pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus
47 (U)While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called (V)Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him, 48 but Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?” 49 And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike (W)with the sword?” 50 And one of them struck the servant[b] of the high priest and cut off his right ear. 51 But Jesus said, “No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him. 52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests and (X)officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? 53 When (Y)I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is (Z)your hour, and (AA)the power of darkness.”
