Mark 14:39

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.

And when you pray, do not use empty repetitions as the Gentiles do. For they think that they will be heard for their many words.

Again, a second time, he went away and prayed, "O my Father, if this cup cannot pass away unless I drink it, your will be done."

Then he told them a parable, to show that they ought always to pray and not lose heart.

Three times I pleaded with the Lord about this, that it should depart from me.
