Ye know not

And Jesus said to them, You know not what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup which I drink? and to be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized?

And likewise the Spirit also helps our infirmity. For we know not what we should pray for as it behooves us: but the Spirit himself makes intercession with unutterable groanings:

you ask, and you receive not, because you ask wickedly, that you may expend it in your pleasures.

The cup

And having gone forward a little, He fell on His face, praying, and saying, My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me: moreover not as I will, but as thou wilt.

And He said, Father, Father, all things are possible to thee; take this cup from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.

saying, Father, if this cup is willing to pass from me; moreover let not my will, but thine be done.

Then Jesus said to Peter, Put thy sword in the scabbard: the cup which the Father gave me, shall I not drink it?

Baptized with the

And they said to Him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, You shall indeed drink the cup which I drink, and be baptized with the baptism with which I am baptized:

And I have a baptism to be baptized with; and how am I straitened till it may be perfected!

We

And Peter says to Him, If it may be necessary for me to die with thee, I will not deny thee. Likewise also all the disciples said.
