1. The time for the supper of bread without yeast was near. It was the special religious gathering to remember how the Jews left Egypt.
|
1. Now G1161 the G3588 feast G1859 of unleavened bread G106 drew nigh G1448 , which is called G3004 the Passover G3957 .
|
|
2. The religious leaders and the teachers of the Law looked for a way to kill Jesus. But they were afraid of the people.
|
2. And G2532 the G3588 chief priests G749 and G2532 scribes G1122 sought G2212 how G4459 they might kill G337 him G846 ; for G1063 they feared G5399 the G3588 people G2992 .
|
|
3. Then Satan came into the heart of Judas who was called Iscariot. He was one of the twelve followers.
|
3. Then G1161 entered G1525 Satan G4567 into G1519 Judas G2455 surnamed G1941 Iscariot G2469 , being G5607 of G1537 the G3588 number G706 of the G3588 twelve G1427 .
|
|
4. Judas went away and talked with the religious leaders and the leaders of the people. He talked about how he might hand Jesus over to them.
|
4. And G2532 he went his way G565 , and communed with G4814 the G3588 chief priests G749 and G2532 captains G4755 , how G4459 he might betray G3860 him G846 unto them G846 .
|
|
5. They were glad and promised to pay him money.
|
5. And G2532 they were glad G5463 , and G2532 covenanted G4934 to give G1325 him G846 money G694 .
|
|
6. Judas promised to do this and then looked for a way to hand Jesus over when there were no people around.
|
6. And G2532 he promised G1843 , and G2532 sought G2212 opportunity G2120 to betray G3860 him G846 unto them G846 in the absence of G817 the multitude G3793 .
|
|
7. The day of bread without yeast came. It was the day when the lamb had to be killed and given on the altar in worship in the house of God. It was the special religious gathering to remember how the Jews left Egypt.
|
7. Then G1161 came G2064 the G3588 day G2250 of unleavened bread G106 , when G1722 G3739 the G3588 passover G3957 must G1163 be killed G2380 .
|
|
8. Jesus sent Peter and John and said, "Go and get this special supper ready for us that we may eat."
|
8. And G2532 he sent G649 Peter G4074 and G2532 John G2491 , saying G2036 , Go G4198 and prepare G2090 us G2254 the G3588 passover G3957 , that G2443 we may eat G5315 .
|
|
9. They said to Him, "Where do You want us to get it ready?"
|
9. And G1161 they G3588 said G2036 unto him G846 , Where G4226 wilt G2309 thou that we prepare G2090 ?
|
|
10. He answered, "See, when you go into the city, you will meet a man carrying a jar of water. Follow him into the house where he goes.
|
10. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , Behold G2400 , when ye G5216 are entered G1525 into G1519 the G3588 city G4172 , there shall a man G444 meet G4876 you G5213 , bearing G941 a pitcher G2765 of water G5204 ; follow G190 him G846 into G1519 the G3588 house G3614 where G3757 he entereth in G1531 .
|
|
11. Say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher asks you, "Where is the room you keep for friends where I may eat this special supper with My followers?" '
|
11. And G2532 ye shall say G2046 unto the G3588 goodman G3617 of the G3588 house G3614 , The G3588 Master G1320 saith G3004 unto thee G4671 , Where G4226 is G2076 the G3588 guestchamber G2646 , where G3699 I shall eat G5315 the G3588 passover G3957 with G3326 my G3450 disciples G3101 ?
|
|
12. He will take you to a large room on the second floor with everything in it. Make it ready for us."
|
12. And he G2548 shall show G1166 you G5213 a large G3173 upper room G508 furnished G4766 : there G1563 make ready G2090 .
|
|
13. They went and found everything as Jesus had said. They got ready for the special supper.
|
13. And G1161 they went G565 , and found G2147 as G2531 he had said G2046 unto them G846 : and G2532 they made ready G2090 the G3588 passover G3957 .
|
|
14. When the time came, Jesus sat down with the twelve followers.
|
14. And G2532 when G3753 the G3588 hour G5610 was come G1096 , he sat down G377 , and G2532 the G3588 twelve G1427 apostles G652 with G4862 him G846 .
|
|
15. He said to them, "I have wanted very much to eat this special supper with you to remember how the Jews left Egypt. I have wanted to eat this with you before I suffer.
|
15. And G2532 he said G2036 unto G4314 them G846 , With desire G1939 I have desired G1937 to eat G5315 this G5124 passover G3957 with G3326 you G5216 before G4253 I G3165 suffer G3958 :
|
|
16. I say to you, I will not eat this special supper again until its true meaning is completed in the holy nation of God."
|
16. For G1063 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , I will G3754 not G3364 any more G3765 eat G5315 thereof G1537 G846 , until G2193 G3755 it be fulfilled G4137 in G1722 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 .
|
|
17. Then Jesus took the cup and gave thanks. He said, "Take this and pass it to each one.
|
17. And G2532 he took G1209 the cup G4221 , and gave thanks G2168 , and said G2036 , Take G2983 this G5124 , and G2532 divide G1266 it among yourselves G1438 :
|
|
18. I say to you that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the holy nation of God comes."
|
18. For G1063 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , I will G3754 not G3364 drink G4095 of G575 the G3588 fruit G1081 of the G3588 vine G288 , until G2193 G3755 the G3588 kingdom G932 of God G2316 shall come G2064 .
|
|
19. Then Jesus took bread and gave thanks and broke it in pieces. He gave it to them, saying, "This is My body which is given for you. Do this to remember Me."
|
19. And G2532 he took G2983 bread G740 , and gave thanks G2168 , and broke G2806 it, and G2532 gave G1325 unto them G846 , saying G3004 , This G5124 is G2076 my G3450 body G4983 which is given G1325 for G5228 you G5216 : this G5124 do G4160 in G1519 remembrance G364 of me G1699 .
|
|
20. In the same way, after they had finished the bread, He took the cup. He said, "This cup is My blood of the New Way of Worship which is given for you.
|
20. Likewise G5615 also G2532 the G3588 cup G4221 after supper G1172 , saying G3004 , This G5124 cup is G4221 the G3588 new G2537 testament G1242 in G1722 my G3450 blood G129 , which is shed G1632 for G5228 you G5216 .
|
|
21. "See, the hand of the one who will give Me over to the leaders of the country is on the table with Me.
|
21. But G4133 , behold G2400 , the G3588 hand G5495 of him that betrayeth G3860 me G3165 is with G3326 me G1700 on G1909 the G3588 table G5132 .
|
|
22. The Son of Man will be taken this way because it has been in God's plan. But it is bad for that man who hands Him over!"
|
22. And G2532 truly G3303 the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 goeth G4198 , as G2596 it was determined G3724 : but G4133 woe G3759 unto that G1565 man G444 by G1223 whom G3739 he is betrayed G3860 !
|
|
23. They began to ask each other which of them would do this.
|
23. And G2532 they G846 began G756 to inquire G4802 among G4314 themselves G1438 , which G5101 G686 of G1537 them G846 it was G1498 that should G3195 do G4238 this thing G5124 .
|
|
24. They started to argue among themselves about who was thought to be the greatest.
|
24. And G1161 there was G1096 also G2532 a strife G5379 among G1722 them G846 , which G5101 of them G846 should be accounted G1380 the G1511 greatest G3187 .
|
|
25. Jesus said to them, "The kings of the nations show their power to the people. Those who have power over the people are given names of honor.
|
25. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , The G3588 kings G935 of the G3588 Gentiles G1484 exercise lordship over G2961 them G846 ; and G2532 they that exercise authority upon G1850 them G846 are called G2564 benefactors G2110 .
|
|
26. But you will not be like that. Let the greatest among you be as the least. Let the leader be as the one who cares for others.
|
26. But G1161 ye G5210 shall not G3756 be so G3779 : but G235 he that is greatest G3187 among G1722 you G5213 , let him be G1096 as G5613 the G3588 younger G3501 ; and G2532 he that is chief G2233 , as G5613 he that doth serve G1247 .
|
|
27. Who is greater, the one who is eating at the table, or the one who is caring for him? Is it not the one who is eating at the table? But I am here with you as One Who cares for you.
|
27. For G1063 whether G5101 is greater G3187 , he that sitteth at meat G345 , or G2228 he that serveth G1247 ? is not G3780 he that sitteth at meat G345 ? but G1161 I G1473 am G1510 among G1722 G3319 you G5216 as G5613 he that serveth G1247 .
|
|
28. "You have stayed with Me through all the hard things that have come to Me.
|
28. G1161 Ye G5210 are G2075 they which have continued G1265 with G3326 me G1700 in G1722 my G3450 temptations G3986 .
|
|
29. As My Father has given Me a holy nation, I will give you the right
|
29. And I G2504 appoint G1303 unto you G5213 a kingdom G932 , as G2531 my G3450 Father G3962 hath appointed G1303 unto me G3427 ;
|
|
30. to eat and drink at My table in My holy nation. You will sit on thrones and judge the twelve family groups of the Jewish nation."
|
30. That G2443 ye may eat G2068 and G2532 drink G4095 at G1909 my G3450 table G5132 in G1722 my G3450 kingdom G932 , and G2532 sit G2523 on G1909 thrones G2362 judging G2919 the G3588 twelve G1427 tribes G5443 of Israel G2474 .
|
|
31. The Lord said, "Simon, Simon, listen! Satan has wanted to have you. He will divide you as wheat is divided from that which is no good.
|
31. And G1161 the G3588 Lord G2962 said G2036 , Simon G4613 , Simon G4613 , behold G2400 , Satan G4567 hath desired G1809 to have you G5209 , that he may sift G4617 you as G5613 wheat G4621 :
|
|
32. But I have prayed for you. I have prayed that your faith will be strong and that you will not give up. When you return, you must help to make your brothers strong."
|
32. But G1161 I G1473 have prayed G1189 for G4012 thee G4675 , that G2443 thy G4675 faith G4102 fail G1587 not G3361 : and G2532 when G4218 thou G4771 art converted G1994 , strengthen G4741 thy G4675 brethren G80 .
|
|
33. Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, I am ready to go to prison and to die with You!"
|
33. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto him G846 , Lord G2962 , I am G1510 ready G2092 to go G4198 with G3326 thee G4675 , both G2532 into G1519 prison G5438 , and G2532 to G1519 death G2288 .
|
|
34. Jesus said, "I tell you, Peter, a rooster will not crow today before you will say three times that you do not know Me."
|
34. And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 , I tell G3004 thee G4671 , Peter G4074 , the cock G220 shall not G3364 crow G5455 this day G4594 , before G4250 that G2228 thou shalt thrice G5151 deny G533 that thou G3361 knowest G1492 me G3165 .
|
|
35. Jesus said to them, "I sent you without money or bag or shoes. Did you need anything?" They said, "Nothing."
|
35. And G2532 he said G2036 unto them G846 , When G3753 I sent G649 you G5209 without G817 purse G905 , and G2532 scrip G4082 , and G2532 shoes G5266 G3361 , lacked G5302 ye any thing G5100 ? And G1161 they G3588 said G2036 , Nothing G3762 .
|
|
36. Then He said to them, "But now whoever has a money-bag and a bag for food should take it. Whoever does not have a sword should sell his coat and buy one.
|
36. Then G3767 said G2036 he unto them G846 , But G235 now G3568 , he that hath G2192 a purse G905 , let him take G142 it, and G2532 likewise G3668 his G2532 scrip G4082 : and G2532 he that hath G2192 no G3361 sword, let him sell G4453 his G848 garment G2440 , and G2532 buy G59 one G3162 .
|
|
37. I tell you, that what has been written about Me must happen. It says, 'He was among the wrong-doers.' (Isaiah 53:12) What is told about Me must happen."
|
37. For G1063 I say G3004 unto you G5213 , that G3754 this G5124 that is written G1125 must G1163 yet G2089 be accomplished G5055 in G1722 me G1698 , And G2532 he was reckoned G3049 among G3326 the transgressors G459 : for G1063 G2532 the things G3588 concerning G4012 me G1700 have G2192 an end G5056 .
|
|
38. They said, "Lord, look, we have two swords." He answered, "That is enough."
|
38. And G1161 they G3588 said G2036 , Lord G2962 , behold G2400 , here G5602 are two G1417 swords G3162 . And G1161 he G3588 said G2036 unto them G846 , It is G2076 enough G2425 .
|
|
39. Jesus came out of the room. Then He went to the Mount of Olives as He had been doing. The followers went with Him.
|
39. And G2532 he came out G1831 , and went G4198 , as he was wont G2596 G1485 , to G1519 the G3588 mount G3735 of Olives G1636 ; and G1161 his G846 disciples G3101 also G2532 followed G190 him G846 .
|
|
40. When He got there, He said to them, "Pray that you will not be tempted."
|
40. And G1161 when he was G1096 at G1909 the G3588 place G5117 , he said G2036 unto them G846 , Pray G4336 that ye enter G1525 not G3361 into G1519 temptation G3986 .
|
|
41. He walked away from them about as far as a stone can be thrown. There He got down with His face on the ground and prayed.
|
41. And G2532 he G846 was withdrawn G645 from G575 them G846 about G5616 a stone G3037 's cast G1000 , and G2532 kneeled down G5087 G1119 , and prayed G4336 ,
|
|
42. He said, "Father, if it can be done, take away what must happen to Me. Even so, not what I want, but what You want."
|
42. Saying G3004 , Father G3962 , if G1487 thou be willing G1014 , remove G3911 this G5124 cup G4221 from G575 me G1700 : nevertheless G4133 not G3361 my G3450 will G2307 , but G235 thine G4674 , be done G1096 .
|
|
43. An angel from heaven came and gave Him strength.
|
43. And G1161 there appeared G3700 an angel G32 unto him G846 from G575 heaven G3772 , strengthening G1765 him G846 .
|
|
44. His heart was much troubled and He prayed all the more. Water ran from His face like blood and fell to the ground.
|
44. And G2532 being G1096 in G1722 an agony G74 he prayed G4336 more earnestly G1617 : and G1161 his G846 sweat G2402 was G1096 as it were G5616 great drops G2361 of blood G129 falling down G2597 to G1909 the G3588 ground G1093 .
|
|
45. When Jesus got up after praying, He went back to the followers. He found them sleeping because of so much sorrow.
|
45. And G2532 when he rose up G450 from G575 prayer G4335 , and was come G2064 to G4314 his disciples G3101 , he found G2147 them G846 sleeping G2837 for G575 sorrow G3077 ,
|
|
46. He said to them, "Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray that you will not be tempted."
|
46. And G2532 said G2036 unto them G846 , Why G5101 sleep G2518 ye? rise G450 and pray G4336 , lest G3363 ye enter G1525 into G1519 temptation G3986 .
|
|
47. While Jesus was speaking, Judas came walking ahead of many people. He was one of the twelve followers. He came near to Jesus to kiss Him.
|
47. And G1161 while he G846 yet G2089 spake G2980 , behold G2400 a multitude G3793 , and G2532 he that was called G3004 Judas G2455 , one G1520 of the G3588 twelve G1427 , went before G4281 them G846 , and G2532 drew near G1448 unto Jesus G2424 to kiss G5368 him G846 .
|
|
48. But Jesus said to him, "Judas, are you handing over the Son of Man with a kiss?"
|
48. But G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 unto him G846 , Judas G2455 , betrayest G3860 thou the G3588 Son G5207 of man G444 with a kiss G5370 ?
|
|
49. Those around Jesus saw what was going to happen and asked, "Lord, should we fight with our swords?"
|
49. When G1161 they G3588 which were about G4012 him G846 saw G1492 what would follow G2071 , they said G2036 unto him G846 , Lord G2962 , shall we G1487 smite G3960 with G1722 the sword G3162 ?
|
|
50. One of them hit a servant who was owned by the head religious leader and cut off his right ear.
|
50. And G2532 G5100 one G1520 of G1537 them G846 smote G3960 the G3588 servant G1401 of the G3588 high priest G749 , and G2532 cut off G851 his G846 right G1188 ear G3775 .
|
|
51. Jesus said, "Stop! This is enough." And He put His hand on his ear and healed him.
|
51. And G1161 Jesus G2424 answered G611 and said G2036 , Suffer G1439 ye thus far G2193 G5127 . And G2532 he touched G680 his G846 ear G5621 , and healed G2390 him G846 .
|
|
52. Jesus said to the religious leaders and the leaders of the house of God and the other leaders who came to Him, "Have you come with swords and sticks to take Me, as if I were a robber?
|
52. Then G1161 Jesus G2424 said G2036 unto G4314 the chief priests G749 , and G2532 captains G4755 of the G3588 temple G2411 , and G2532 the elders G4245 , which were come G3854 to G1909 him G846 , Be ye come out G1831 , as G5613 against G1909 a thief G3027 , with G3326 swords G3162 and G2532 staves G3586 ?
|
|
53. While I was with you everyday in the house of God, you never took hold of Me. But now is the time you are to come and you have come in the dark."
|
53. When I G3450 was G5607 daily G2596 G2250 with G3326 you G5216 in G1722 the G3588 temple G2411 , ye stretched forth G1614 no G3756 hands G5495 against G1909 me G1691 : but G235 this G3778 is G2076 your G5216 hour G5610 , and G2532 the G3588 power G1849 of darkness G4655 .
|
|
54. Then they led Jesus away to the house of the head religious leader. Peter followed a long way behind Him.
|
54. Then G1161 took G4815 they him G846 , and led G71 him, and G2532 brought G1521 him G846 into G1519 the G3588 high priest G749 's house G3624 . And G1161 Peter G4074 followed G190 afar off G3113 .
|
|
55. They built a fire in the yard and sat down. Peter sat down with them.
|
55. And G1161 when they G846 had kindled G681 a fire G4442 in G1722 the midst G3319 of the G3588 hall G833 , and G2532 were set down together G4776 , Peter G4074 sat down G2521 among G1722 G3319 them G846 .
|
|
56. One of the servant-girls saw Peter as he sat by the fire and looked right at him. She said, "This man was with Jesus also."
|
56. But G1161 a certain G5100 maid G3814 beheld G1492 him G846 as he sat G2521 by G4314 the G3588 fire G5457 , and G2532 earnestly looked G816 upon him G846 , and said G2036 , This man G3778 was G2258 also G2532 with G4862 him G846 .
|
|
57. Peter lied and said, "Woman, I do not know Him."
|
57. And G1161 he G3588 denied G720 him G846 , saying G3004 , Woman G1135 , I know G1492 him G846 not G3756 .
|
|
58. After awhile another person saw him and said, "You are one of them also." Peter said, "No, sir, I am not."
|
58. And G2532 after G3326 a little while G1024 another G2087 saw G1492 him G846 , and said G5346 , Thou G4771 art G1488 also G2532 of G1537 them G846 . And G1161 Peter G4074 said G2036 , Man G444 , I am G1510 not G3756 .
|
|
