I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. And now, Father, glorify me with thyself, with the glory which I had with thee before the world was. I have made known thy name to the men that thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them, to me, and they have kept thy word. Now they know that all things that thou hast given me are from thee; for the words which thou gavest me I have given them; and they have received them, and they know surely that I came forth from thee, and they believe that thou didst send me. I pray for them; I pray not for the world, but for them whom thou hast given me; for they are thine. And all mine are thine, and thine are mine, and I am glorified in them. And I am no longer in the world; but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep in thy name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are one. While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name. Those whom thou gavest me, I have kept; and none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture may be fulfilled. And now I come to thee; and these things I speak in the world, that they may have my joy fulfilled in themselves. I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine-dresser. Every branch in me that bears no fruit, he takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. Now are you pure, through the word which I have spoken to you. read more.
Abide in me, and I will abide in you. As the branch can not bear fruit of itself, unless it abide in the vine, so neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine, you are the branches.

If any one abide not in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and withers; and such are gathered, and thrown into the fire, and burned. If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done for you. In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and in this you will be my disciples. As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love, even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. These things have I spoken to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be full. This is my commandment: That you love one another, as I have loved you. Greater love has no man than this, that one should lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you. I no longer call you servants, because the servant knows not what his master does. But I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you.

And there followed him a certain young man, who had a linen garment around his naked body. And the young men laid hold of him; and he left the linen garment, and fled from them naked. And they led Jesus away to the chief priest; and with him were assembled all the chief priests, and the elders, and the scribes. And Peter followed him, at a distance, even into the palace of the chief priest, and sat with the attendants, and warmed himself at the fire. And the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin sought for testimony against Jesus, in order to put him to death, and found none. For many testified falsely against him, and their testimony did not agree. And some rose up, and testified falsely against him, saying: We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands. And not even in this did their testimony agree. And the chief priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying: Do you make no answer? What do these testify against you? But he was silent, and made no answer. Again, the chief priest asked him, and said to him: Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed? Jesus replied: I am. And you shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of the Almighty, and coming with the clouds of heaven. And the chief priest rent his clothes, and said: What further need have we of witnesses? You have heard his impious speech. What think you? They all condemned him to be a subject of death. And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to strike him with their fists, and to say to him: Give a response. And the attendants struck him with their open hands. And while Peter was in the court below, one of the maid servants of the chief priest came; and when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked at him, and said: You also were with Jesus the Nazarene. But he denied, saying: I neither know, nor understand what you say. And he went out into the entrance, and the cock crew. And the maid-servant saw him again, and began to say to those who stood by: This man is one of them. He again denied. And again, after a little while, those who stood by said to Peter: Surely, you are one of them; for you are a Galilean, and your speech is like theirs. But he began to curse and to swear, saying: I know not this man of whom you speak. And immediately the cock crew the second time. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: Before the cock crows twice, you will deny me three times. And when he thought upon it, he wept.
And they laid their hands on him and took him. And one of those who were standing by, drew a sword, and struck the servant of the chief priest, and cut off his ear. And Jesus answering, said to them: Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs, to take me? I was daily with you in the temple, and taught, and you did not take me; but this is so, that the scriptures may be fulfilled. And they all forsook him and fled.

And Peter remembered the word that Jesus had spoken to him: Before the cock crows twice, you will deny me three times. And when he thought upon it, he wept.
And while he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and came near to Jesus to kiss him. But Jesus said to him: Judas, do you deliver up the Son of man with a kiss? When those who were about him saw what would be done, they said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword? read more.
And a certain one of them struck the servant of the chief priest, and cut off his right ear. And Jesus answered and said: Let this matter proceed thus far. And he touched his ear and healed him. And Jesus said to the chief priests, and the captains of the temple, and the elders that had come against him: Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber? While I was daily with you in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the authority of darkness. And they took him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the chief priest. But Peter followed at a distance. And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down in the midst of them. And a certain maid-servant saw him sitting by the fire; and, looking intently at him, she said: This man also was with him. But he denied, saying: "Woman, I know him not. And after a little, another saw him, and said: You also are one of them. Peter replied: Man, I am not. And about one hour after, another confidently affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man also was with him; for he is a Galilean. But Peter said: Man, I know not what you say. And immediately, while he was speaking, the cock crew. And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times. And Peter went out and wept bitterly. And the men that had Jesus in custody mocked him, and smote him. And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying: Give a response; who is it that struck you? And many other impious things they said to him. And when it was day, the elders of the people, the chief priests also and scribes, met together, and led him up to the Sanhedrin, and said: If you are the Christ, tell us. But he said to them: If I tell you, you will not believe; and if I also ask you a question, you will not answer me, nor let me go. Henceforth the Son of man shall sit on the right hand of the power of God. And they all said: You are, then, the Son of God? He said to them: You say that I am. They replied: What further need have we of testimony? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.

Judas, then, having received the band of soldiers and attendants from the chief priests and Pharisees, came thither with torches and lamps and weapons. Then Jesus, knowing all things that were coming upon him, went forth, and said to them: Whom do you seek? They answered him: Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus said to them: I am he. Judas, also, who delivered him up, was standing among them. read more.
Then, when he said to them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground. Then he asked them again: "Whom do you seek? They said: Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus answered: I have told you that I am he. If, then, you seek me, let these go away. This he said, that the word might be fulfilled which he had spoken: Of those whom thou hast given me; I have lost none. Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the chief priest, and cut off his right ear. The name of the servant was Malchus. Then Jesus said to Peter: Put up your sword into its scabbard. Shall I not drink the cup that my Father has given me? Then the band of soldiers, and the officer, and the attend ants of the Jews, took Jesus and bound him, and led him first to Annas; for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was chief priest that year. It was Caiaphas who had given counsel to the Jews, that it was profitable that one man should die for the people. And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that other disciple was acquainted with the chief priest, and he went in with Jesus into the palace of the chief priest. But Peter stood without near the door. Then the other disciple, who was acquainted with the chief priest, went out and spoke to the door-keeper, and brought Peter in. Then the maid-servant who kept the door said to Peter: Are you not also one of the disciples of this man? He said: I am not. And the servants and the attendants, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold, were standing and warming them selves. And Peter stood with them, and warmed himself. Then the chief priest questioned Jesus concerning his disciples and his teaching. Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world; I always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, where the Jews come together, and in secret I have spoken nothing. Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard, what things I said to them. Behold, they know what I have said. When he had spoken thus, one of the attendants, who was standing by, struck Jesus with his open hand, saying: Do you answer the chief priest thus? Jesus answered him: If I have spoken evil, testify of the evil; but if well, why do you strike me? Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the chief priest. And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. Then they said to him: Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied, and said: I am not. One of the servants of the chief priest, who was a kinsman of him whose ear Peter had cut off, said: Did I not see you in the garden with him? Then Peter denied again. And immediately the cock crew. Then they led Jesus from Caiaphas to the governor's pal ace. It was the morning hour. And, in order that they might not be denied, but that they might eat the passover, they did not go into the governor's palace. Then Pilate came out to them, and said: What accusation do you bring against this man? They answered and said to him: If this man were not an evil-doer, we would not have delivered him to you. Then Pilate said to them: Take him yourselves, and judge him according to your law. Then the Jews said to him: It is not lawful for us to put any one to death; that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spoke, signifying by what death he was about to die. Then Pilate again entered the governor's palace, and called Jesus, and said to him: Are you the king of the Jews? Jesus answered him: Do you say this of yourself, or did others speak to you of me? Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Your own nation, and the chief priests have delivered you to me; what have you done? Jesus answered: My kingdom is not of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I might not be delivered up to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not hence. Then Pilate said to him: You are a king, then? Jesus answered; You say that I am a king. For this purpose was I born, and for this purpose I came into the world, that I might testify to the truth. Every one that is of the truth, hears my voice. Pilate said to him: What is truth? And when he had said this, he again came out to the Jews, and said to them: I find no fault in him. But you have a custom, that I release to you one during the passover. Are you willing, then, that I should release to you the king of the Jews? They all, then, cried out, saying: Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.
Then, when he said to them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground. Then he asked them again: "Whom do you seek? They said: Jesus the Nazarene. Jesus answered: I have told you that I am he. If, then, you seek me, let these go away. This he said, that the word might be fulfilled which he had spoken: Of those whom thou hast given me; I have lost none.
