And He took Peter and Zebedee's two sons along with Him and He began to give way to His grief and distress of heart. Then He said to them, "My heart is breaking, it almost kills me! You must stay here and keep watching with me." Then He walked on a few steps and threw Himself upon His face, and in this attitude continued to pray, and say, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass by me; and yet, I pray, not what I want but what you want."
