And he cometh unto his disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and said unto Peter - Thus, powerless are ye, one hour, to watch with me? Be watching and praying, that ye may not enter into temptation: The spirit, indeed, is, eager, but, the flesh, weak. Again, a second time, departing he prayed, saying: My Father! If it is impossible for this to pass, except I, drink, it, Accomplished, be, thy will. And coming, he, again, found them sleeping, for their eyes had become heavy. And, leaving them, he, again, departed, and prayed a third time, the same word, saying again.

Rabbi, and eagerly kissed him. But, Jesus, said unto him - Friend! wherefore art thou here? Then, coming forward, they thrust their hands upon Jesus, and secured him.

Brethren! It was needful for the Scripture to be fulfilled which the Holy Spirit spake beforehand through the mouth of David, concerning Judas, - who became guide unto them who apprehended Jesus; For that he had come to be reckoned among us and obtained the lot of this ministry. - This man therefore had possessed himself of a field out of the reward of unrighteousness, - and falling headlong burst asunder in the midst, and forth gushed all his bowels; read more.
And it became known unto all them who were dwelling in Jerusalem, so that that field was called, in their language, Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood. - For it is written in the book of Psalms: Let his encampment become desolate, and let there be none to dwell therein! And - his overseership, let a different man take! It is needful then that, of the men who companied with us during all the time in which the Lord Jesus came in and went out over us, Beginning from the immersion by John until the day when he was taken up from us, that, a witness of his resurrection along with us, should one of these become. And they appointed two, - Joseph, called Barsabbas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. And, praying, they said - Thou Lord! observer of the hearts of all men! shew forth whom thou hast chosen, - of these two, one; - To take the place of this ministry and apostleship, from which Judas went aside, to go his way unto his own place.

Or thinkest thou that I cannot call upon my Father, and he will set near me, even now, more than twelve legions of messengers? How then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that, thus, it must needs come to pass? In that hour, said Jesus unto the multitudes: As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me? Daily in the temple, used I to sit teaching, and ye secured me not; But, this, hath, wholly, come to pass, that, the Scriptures of the prophets, may be fulfilled. Then, the disciples, all forsaking him, fled. And, they who secured Jesus, led him away unto Caiaphas the High-priest, where the Scribes and the Elders gathered themselves together. Now, Peter, was following him afar off, unto the court of the High-priest, - and, entering within, was sitting with the attendants, to see the end. Now, the High-priests and all the High-council, were seeking false-witness against Jesus, that they might, put him to death; and found not any, though many came forward as false-witnesses. At length, however, there came forward, two, and said: This, man said - I am able to pull down the shrine of God, and, in three days, to, build, it. And the High-priest, arising, said unto him - Nothing, answerest thou? What are these, against thee bearing witness? But, Jesus, was silent. And, the High-priest, said unto him: I put thee on oath, by the Living God, that, to us, thou say - Whether, thou, art the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him: Thou, hast said; Moreover, I say unto you - Hereafter, ye will see the Son of Man, sitting on the right hand of power, and coming upon the clouds of heaven. Then, the High-priest rent asunder his garments, saying - He hath spoken profanely! What further need have we, of witnesses? Lo! now, ye have heard the profanity! How, to you, doth it seem? And, they, answering, said: Guilty of death, he is. Then, spat they into his face, and buffeted him; and, others, struck him smartly, saying - Prophesy unto us, O Christ! Who is he that struck thee? Now, Peter, was sitting without, in the court; and there came unto him a certain female servant, saying - Thou also, wast with Jesus, the Galilaean. But, he, denied before all, saying - I know not what thou sayest. And, when he went out into the porch, another female saw him, and said unto them who were there - This, one was with Jesus the Nazarene. And, again, he denied, with an oath - I know not the man. And, after a little, the by-standers, coming forward, said unto Peter: Truly, thou also, art, from among them, for, thy very speech, maketh thee, manifest. Then, began he to be cursing and swearing - I know not the man! And, straightway, a cock crowed. And Peter was put in mind of the declaration of Jesus, of his having said - Before a cock crow, thrice, wilt thou utterly deny me; and, going forth outside, he wept bitterly.
But, Jesus, said unto him - Friend! wherefore art thou here? Then, coming forward, they thrust their hands upon Jesus, and secured him.

Or thinkest thou that I cannot call upon my Father, and he will set near me, even now, more than twelve legions of messengers? How then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that, thus, it must needs come to pass? In that hour, said Jesus unto the multitudes: As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me? Daily in the temple, used I to sit teaching, and ye secured me not; But, this, hath, wholly, come to pass, that, the Scriptures of the prophets, may be fulfilled. Then, the disciples, all forsaking him, fled. And, they who secured Jesus, led him away unto Caiaphas the High-priest, where the Scribes and the Elders gathered themselves together. Now, Peter, was following him afar off, unto the court of the High-priest, - and, entering within, was sitting with the attendants, to see the end. Now, the High-priests and all the High-council, were seeking false-witness against Jesus, that they might, put him to death; and found not any, though many came forward as false-witnesses. At length, however, there came forward, two, and said: This, man said - I am able to pull down the shrine of God, and, in three days, to, build, it. And the High-priest, arising, said unto him - Nothing, answerest thou? What are these, against thee bearing witness? But, Jesus, was silent. And, the High-priest, said unto him: I put thee on oath, by the Living God, that, to us, thou say - Whether, thou, art the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith unto him: Thou, hast said; Moreover, I say unto you - Hereafter, ye will see the Son of Man, sitting on the right hand of power, and coming upon the clouds of heaven. Then, the High-priest rent asunder his garments, saying - He hath spoken profanely! What further need have we, of witnesses? Lo! now, ye have heard the profanity! How, to you, doth it seem? And, they, answering, said: Guilty of death, he is. Then, spat they into his face, and buffeted him; and, others, struck him smartly, saying - Prophesy unto us, O Christ! Who is he that struck thee? Now, Peter, was sitting without, in the court; and there came unto him a certain female servant, saying - Thou also, wast with Jesus, the Galilaean. But, he, denied before all, saying - I know not what thou sayest. And, when he went out into the porch, another female saw him, and said unto them who were there - This, one was with Jesus the Nazarene. And, again, he denied, with an oath - I know not the man. And, after a little, the by-standers, coming forward, said unto Peter: Truly, thou also, art, from among them, for, thy very speech, maketh thee, manifest. Then, began he to be cursing and swearing - I know not the man! And, straightway, a cock crowed. And Peter was put in mind of the declaration of Jesus, of his having said - Before a cock crow, thrice, wilt thou utterly deny me; and, going forth outside, he wept bitterly.
And, straightway, while yet he is speaking, Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, cometh near, and, with him, a multitude, with swords and clubs, from the High-priests and the Scribes and the Elders. He that is delivering him up hath given an agreed sign unto them, saying - Whomsoever I shall kiss, he, it is! Secure him, and be leading away, safely. And, coming, straightway, stepping forward to him, he saith - Rabbi! and openly kissed him. read more.
And, they, thrust their hands on him, and secured him. A certainone of the by-standers, drawing a sword, smote the servant of the High priest, and took off his, ear. And Jesus, answering, said unto them - As against a robber, came ye forth, with swords and clubs, to arrest me? Daily, was I with you, in the temple, teaching; and ye secured me not. But, that, the Scriptures, may be fulfilled -- And they, all, forsook, him, and fled. And, a certain young man, was following with him, having cast about himself a fine Indian cloth, over his naked body, - and they are securing him; but, he, leaving behind the cloth, fled naked. And they led away Jesus unto the High-priest; and all the High-priests and the Elders and the Scribes gather together. And, Peter, afar of, followed him, as far as within, into the court of the High-priest; and was sitting with the attendants, and warming himself by the light. Now, the High-priest, and all the High-council, were seeking, against Jesus, testimony, with the intent to put him to death, - and were not finding any; for, many, were bearing false-witness against him, and the testimonies were not, agreed. And some, standing up, were bearing false-witness against him, saying - We, heard him saying, I, will pull down this shrine, the one made by hand, and, in three days, another, not made by hand, will I raise. And, not even so, was the testimony, agreed. And, the High-priest rising up into the midst, questioned Jesus, saying - Answerest thou, nothing? What are these, against thee, witnessing? But, he, was silent, and answered, nothing. Again, the High-priest was questioning him, and saith unto him - Art, thou, the Christ the Son of the Blessed? And Jesus said - I, am; and ye shall see the Son of Man - sitting, on the right hand, of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven. And, the High-priest, having rent asunder his inner-garments, saith - What, further, need have we, of witnesses? Heard ye the profanity? What, to you, doth it appear? And they, all, condemned him to be, worthy, of, death. And some began to be spitting at him, and, covering up his face, and to be buffeting him, and saying to him - Prophesy! And, the attendants, with smart blows, took him. And, Peter, being, below in the court, there cometh one of the maid-servants of the High-priest; and, seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, saith - And, thou, wast, with the Nazarene - with Jesus. But, he, denied, saying - I neither know him , nor do I well understand what, thou, sayest; and went out into the porch. And, the maid-servant, seeing him, began, again, to be saying unto the by-standers - This one, is, from among them. But, he, again, was denying. And, after a little again, the by-standers, were saying unto Peter - Truly, thou, art, from among them; for thou art, a Galilaean, also. And, he, began to be cursing and swearing - I know not this man, of whom ye are speaking! And, straightway, a second time, a cock, crowed; and Peter was reminded of the declaration, how Jesus had said to him - Before a cock, twice, crow, thrice, wilt thou deny me. And, when he thought thereon, he began to weep.
And, they, thrust their hands on him, and secured him. A certainone of the by-standers, drawing a sword, smote the servant of the High priest, and took off his, ear.

While yet he was speaking, lo! a multitude; and, he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them on, - and he drew near unto Jesus, to kiss him. But, Jesus, said to him - Judas! with a kiss, the Son of Man, dost thou deliver up? And they who were about him, seeing what would be, said - Lord! shall we smite with the sword? read more.
And a certain one from among them smote, the High-priest's, servant, and took off his right ear. But Jesus, answering, said - Let be - as long as this! -- And, touching the ear, he healed him. And Jesus said unto the High-priests, and Captains of the temple, and Elders, who had come against him - As against a robber, have ye come out, with swords and clubs? Daily, was I with you, in the temple, and yet ye stretched not forth your hands against me! -- But, this, is your hour, and the authority of darkness. And, having arrested him, they led him away, and took him into the house of the High-priest; and, Peter, was following afar. And, they having kindled up a fire in the midst of the court, and taken seats together, Peter was for sitting among them. But, a certain maid-servant, seeing him seating himself towards the light, and looking steadfastly at him, said - This one also, was, with him. But, he, denied, saying - I know him not, woman! And, after a little, another, beholding him, said - Thou also, art, from among them. But, Peter, said - Man! I am not. And, about one hour having passed, a certain other, began stoutly to insist, saying - Of a truth, this one also, was with him; for indeed he is, a Galilaean. But Peter said - Man! I know not what thou art saying! And, instantly while yet he was speaking, a cock crew. And the Lord turned, and looked at Peter; and Peter was put in mind of the declaration of the Lord, how he had said to him - Before, a cock, crow this day, thou wilt deny me thrice! And, going forth outside, he wept bitterly. And, the men who held him bound, kept mocking him, with blows; and, blindfolding him, questioned him, saying - Prophesy! which is he that smote thee? and, many other things, with profane speech, were they saying unto him. And, when it became day, the Eldership of the people was gathered together - both High-priests and Scribes, - and they led him away into their high-council, saying - If, thou, art the Christ, tell us! But he said unto them - If I should tell, you, in nowise would ye believe, And, if I should put questions, in nowise would ye answer; But, henceforth, shall the Son of Man be seated on the right hand of the power of God. And they all said - Thou, then, art the Son of God? And, he, unto them said - Ye, say it , - because, I, am. And, they, said - What, further, need have we, of witness?

Judas, therefore, receiving the band, and officers, from among the High-priests and from amongthe Pharisees, cometh thither, with lights and torches and weapons. Jesus, therefore, knowing all the things coming upon him, went forth, and saith unto them - Whom, seek ye? They answered him - Jesus, the Nazarene. He saith unto them - I, am he. Now Judas also, who was delivering him up, was standing with them. read more.
When, therefore, he said unto them, I, am he, they went backwards, and fell to the ground. Again, therefore, he questioned them - Whom, seek ye? And, they, said - Jesus, the Nazarene. Jesus answered - I told you, I, am he. If, then, ye seek me, let these go their way: - that the word might be fulfilled which he had said - As touching them whom thou hast given me, I lost from among them, not so much as one. Simon Peter, therefore, having a sword, drew it, and smote the High-priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. Now the name of the servant was Malchus. Jesus, therefore, said unto Peter - Thrust the sword into its sheath: - The cup which the Father hath given me, shall I in anywise not drink it? The band, therefore, and the captain, and the officers of the Jews, apprehended Jesus, and bound him, and led him unto Annas, first; for he was father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the High-priest of that year. Now Caiaphas was he that gave counsel unto the Jews, that it was profitable for, one man, to die in behalf of the people. And Simon Peter was following with Jesus, also another disciple. But, that disciple, was known unto the High-priest, and entered in, with Jesus, into the court of the High-priest; whereas, Peter, remained standing at the door outside. The other disciple, therefore, that was known of the High-priest, went out, and spake unto the portress, and brought in Peter. The female servant, therefore, the portress, saith unto Peter - Art, thou also, from among the disciples of this man? He, saith - I am not! Now the servants and the officers were standing by, having made, a coal fire, because it was cold, - and were warming themselves; and Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself. The High-priest, therefore, questioned Jesus concerning his disciples, and concerning his teaching. Jesus answered him - I, openly, have spoken, unto the world, - I, ever, taught, in synagogue, and in the temple, where all the Jews gather together; and, in secret, spake nothing: Why questionest thou me? question them who have heard, what I spake unto them. See! these, know what, I, said. And, when, these things, he had said, one of the officers who was standing by, gave a smart blow to Jesus, saying - Thus, answerest thou, the High-priest? Jesus answered him - If, with abuse, I spake, bear witness of the abuse: but, if with respect, why, smitest thou me? Annas therefore sent him forth, bound, unto Caiaphas the High-priest. Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said, therefore, unto him - Art, thou also, from among his disciples? He, denied, and said - I am not! Saith one from among the servants of the High-priest, being, kinsman, of him whose ear Peter cut off, - Did not, I, see thee, in the garden with him? Again, therefore, Peter denied. And, straightway, a cock crew. So they lead Jesus from Caiaphas unto the judgment-hall. Now it was early; and, they themselves, entered not into the judgment-hall, that they might not be defiled, but might eat the passover. Pilate, therefore, went forth outside unto them, and saith, - What accusation bring ye against this man? They answered and said unto him - If this one had not been doing, mischief, unto thee, had we not delivered him up. Pilate, therefore, said unto them - Ye, take him, and, according to your law, judge ye him. The Jews said unto him - Unto us, it is not allowed, to kill anyone! - that, the word of Jesus, might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying, by what manner of death, he was about to die. Pilate, therefore, entered again into the judgment-hall; and addressed Jesus, and said unto him - Art, thou, the king of the Jews? Jesus answered - Of thyself, art, thou, this thing saying; or did, others, tell thee concerning me? Pilate answered - Am, I, a Jew? Thine own nation, and the High-priests, delivered thee up, unto me! What, hast thou done? Jesus answered - My kingdom, is not of this world: If, of this world, had been my kingdom, mine own officers, would have been striving, that I should not be delivered up unto the Jews: but, now, my kingdom, is not from hence. Pilate, therefore, said unto him - And yet, thou, art, not a king? Jesus answered - Thou, sayest, that, a king, I am: I, for this, have been born, and, for this, have come into the world, - that I may bear witness unto the truth: Every one who is of the truth, hearkeneth unto my voice. Pilate saith unto him - What, is truth? And, this saying, again, went he out to the Jews, and saith unto them, - I, find in him, not a single fault. Howbeit ye have, a custom, that, some one, I should release unto you, during the passover: - Are ye minded, then, that I release unto you the king of the Jews? So they cried aloud again, saying - Not this man, but Barabbas! Now, Barabbas, was, a robber.
When, therefore, he said unto them, I, am he, they went backwards, and fell to the ground. Again, therefore, he questioned them - Whom, seek ye? And, they, said - Jesus, the Nazarene.
