Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial

31 “Simon, Simon, behold, (A)Satan demanded to have you,[a] (B)that he might sift you like wheat, 32 but (C)I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, (D)strengthen your brothers.” 33 Peter[b] said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both (E)to prison and (F)to death.” 34 (G)Jesus[c] said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you deny three times that you know me.”

Scripture Must Be Fulfilled in Jesus

35 And he said to them, (H)“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 (I)this Scripture must be fulfilled in me: (J)‘And he was numbered with the transgressors.’ For (K)what is written about me has its fulfillment.” 38 And they said, “Look, Lord, here are two (L)swords.” And he said to them, (M)“It is enough.”

Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives

39 (N)And he came out and went, (O)as was his custom, to (P)the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him. 40 (Q)And when he came to (R)the place, he said to them, (S)“Pray that you may not (T)enter into temptation.” 41 And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and (U)knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, (V)“Father, if you are willing, remove (W)this cup from me. (X)Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” 43 And there appeared to him (Y)an angel from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And (Z)being in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.[d] 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 (AA)pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
