1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these saying, he said to his disciples,
2 Ye know that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
3 Then the chief priests, and the scholars, and the elders of the people, assembled together to the courtyard of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
4 and they deliberated so that they might take Jesus by trickery, and kill him.
5 But they said, Not during the feast, lest an uproar develop among people.
6 Now when Jesus happened to be in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7 a woman came to him having an alabaster cruse of precious ointment, and she poured it upon his head as he sat relaxing.
8 But when his disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, Why this waste?
9 For this ointment could have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10 But Jesus knowing it, he said to them, Why do ye cause troubles to the woman? For she has wrought a good work upon me.
11 For ye always have the poor with you, but ye do not always have me.
12 For by pouring this ointment upon my body, she did it for my burial.
13 Truly I say to you, wherever this good-news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what this woman did will also be told for a memorial of her.
14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, having gone to the chief priests,
15 he said, What are ye willing to give me, and I will deliver him to you? And they weighed out to him thirty silver pieces.
16 And from that time he sought a favorable opportunity so that he might betray him.
17 Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where do thou want that we should prepare for thee to eat the Passover?
18 And he said, Go into the city to a certain man, and say to him, The teacher says, My time is near. I keep the Passover with my disciples with thee.
19 And the disciples did as Jesus arranged for them, and they prepared the Passover.
20 Now having become evening, he was sitting with the twelve.
21 And as they were eating, he said, Truly I say to you, that one of you will betray me.
22 And being exceedingly sorrowful, they began, each of them, to say to him, Is it I, Lord?
23 And having answered, he said, He who dipped his hand with me in the dish, this man will betray me.
24 The Son of man indeed goes as it is written about him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It were good for him if that man had not been born.
25 And Judas (the man who betrayed him) having answered, he said, Is it I, Rabbi? He says to him, Thou have said.
26 And as they were eating, Jesus, having taken bread, having expressed thanks, broke in pieces, and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat, this is my body.
27 And having taken the cup, having expressed thanks, he gave to them, saying, All ye drink of it,
28 for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is shed on behalf of many for remission of sins.
29 But I say to you, that I will, no, not drink of this fruit of the grapevine henceforth until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.
30 And having sung a hymn, they went out to the mount of Olives.
31 Then Jesus says to them, All ye will be caused to stumble by me in this night, for it is written, I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.
32 But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.
33 But having answered, Peter said to him, If all men will be caused to stumble by thee, I will never be caused to stumble.
34 Jesus said to him, Truly I say to thee, that in this night, before a cock sounds, thou will deny me thrice.
35 Peter says to him, Even if I must die with thee, I will, no, not deny thee. And likewise also, said all the disciples.
36 Then Jesus comes with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he says to his disciples, Sit ye here until, after going, I may pray there.
37 And having taken Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and distressed.
38 Then Jesus says to them, My soul is deeply grieved, as far as of death. Remain ye here and watch with me.
39 And having gone forward a little, he fell on his face praying, and saying, My Father, if it be possible, may this cup pass from me. Nevertheless, not as I want, but as thou.
40 And he comes to the disciples, and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, So ye could not watch with me one hour.
41 Watch and pray that ye enter not into temptation. Truly, the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42 Having gone again a second time, he prayed, saying, My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to pass from me, except I drink it, may thy will happen.
43 And having come again, he finds them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44 And when he left them, having gone away again, he prayed a third time, saying again the same statement.
45 Then he comes to his disciples, and says to them, Sleep what remains, and take rest...Behold, the hour has come near, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46 Awake, we go. Behold, he who betrays me has come near.
47 And while he was still speaking, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs from the chief priest and elders of the people.
48 Now the man who betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomever I may kiss is he. Seize him.
49 And straightaway having come to Jesus, he said, Hail, Rabbi, and kissed him much.
50 And Jesus said to him, Friend, why are thou here. Then having come, they threw their hands on Jesus, and seized him.
51 And behold, one of those with Jesus, having stretched out a hand, drew his sword, and when he struck the bondman of the high priest, he cut off his ear.
52 Then Jesus says to him, Return thy sword into its place, for all those who take a sword will die by a sword.
53 Or do thou think that I cannot now call my Father, and he will provide to me more than twelve legions of agents?
54 How then would the scriptures be fulfilled that it is necessary to happen this way?
55 In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, Did ye come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye did not seize me.
56 But all this has come to pass, so that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples fled, having forsook him.
57 And those who seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest where the scholars and the elders were assembled together.
58 But Peter followed him from afar, as far as the courtyard of the high priest. And having entered inside, he sat with the subordinates to see the outcome.
59 Now the chief priests and the elders and the whole council sought FALSE testimony against Jesus, so that they might put him to death,
60 and they did not find it. And although many FALSE witnesses came, they did not find it.
61 But finally two FALSE witnesses having come, they said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it by three days.
62 And the high priest having stood up, he said to him, Answer thou nothing? What do these testify against thee?
63 But Jesus was silent. And having responded, the high priest said to him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us if thou are the Christ, the Son of God.
64 Jesus says to him, Thou have said. Nevertheless I say to you, Henceforth ye will see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming in the clouds of the sky.
65 Then the high priest tore his garments, saying, He has blasphemed. What further need have we of witnesses? Behold, now ye heard his blasphemy.
66 What does it seem to you? Having answered, they said, He is deserving of death.
67 Then they spat in his face and struck him with a fist. And some slapped him,
68 saying, Prophesy to us, thou Christ. Who is he who struck thee?
69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and one servant girl came to him, saying, Thou also were with Jesus the Galilean.
70 But he denied before them all, saying, I do not know what thou say.
71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another woman saw him, and says to them there, This man was also with Jesus the Nazarene.
72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
73 And after a little while those who stood, having approached, said to Peter, Surely thou also are of them, for thy accent even makes thee apparent.
74 Then he began to curse vehemently and to swear, I do not know the man. And straightaway a cock sounded.
75 And Peter remembered the saying that Jesus said to him, Before a cock sounds, thou will deny me thrice. And having gone outside, he wept bitterly.
1 And it came to passe when Iesus had fynisshed all these sayinges he sayd vnto his disciples:
2 Ye knowe that after ii. dayes shalbe ester and the sonne of man shalbe delyvered to be crucified.
3 Then assembled togedder the chefe prestes and the scribes and the elders of the people to the palice of the hye preste called Cayphas
4 and heelde a counsell how they mygt take Iesus by suttelte and kyll him.
5 But they sayd not on the holy daye lest eny vproure aryse amonge the people.
6 When Iesus was in Bethany in the house of Symon the leper
7 ther came vnto him a woman which had an alablaster boxe of precious oyntment and powred it on his heed as he sate at the bourde.
8 When his disciples sawe that they had indignacion sayinge: what neded this wast?
9 This oyntmet myght have bene well solde and geven to the povre.
10 When Iesus vnderstod that he sayde vnto the: why trouble ye the woman? She hath wrought a good worke apon me.
11 For ye shall have povre folcke alwayes with you: but me shall ye not have all wayes.
12 And in yt she casted this oyntment on my bodye she dyd it to burye me wt all.
13 Verely I saye vnto you wheresoever this gospell shalbe preached throughoute all the worlde there shall also this that she hath done be tolde for a memoriall of her.
14 Then one of the twelve called Iudas Iscarioth went vnto the chefe prestes
15 and sayd: what will ye geve me and I will deliver him vnto you? And they apoynted vnto him thirty peces of sylver.
16 And from that tyme he sought oportunite to betraye him.
17 The fyrst daye of swete breed ye disciples cam to Iesus sayinge vnto him: where wylt thou that we prepare for ye to eate ye paschall lambe?
18 And he sayd: Go into the cite vnto soche a man and saye to him: the master sayeth my tyme is at hande I will kepe myne ester at thy housse with my disciples.
19 And the disciples did as Iesus had apoynted them and made redy the esterlambe.
20 When the even was come he sate doune wt the .xii.
21 And as they dyd eate he sayde: Verely I saye vnto you that one of you shall betraye me.
22 And they were excedinge sorowfull and beganne every one of the to saye vnto him: is it I master?
23 He answered and sayde: he yt deppeth his honde wt me in ye disshe the same shall betraye me.
24 The sonne of ma goeth as it is written of him: but wo be to yt ma by whom ye sonne of man shalbe betrayed. It had bene good for that man yf he had never bene borne.
25 Then Iudas wich betrayed him answered and sayde: is it I master? He sayde vnto him: thou hast sayde.
26 As they dyd eate Iesus toke breed and gave thankes brake it and gave it to the disciples and sayde: Take eate this is my body.
27 And he toke the cup and thanked and gave it them sayinge: drinke of it every one.
28 For this is my bloude of the new testament that shalbe shedde for many for the remission of synnes.
29 I saye vnto you: I will not drinke hence forth of this frute of the vyne tree vntyll that daye when I shall drinke it new with you in my fathers kyngdome.
30 And when they had sayde grace they went out into mounte olyvete.
31 Then sayd Iesus vnto them: all ye shall be offended by me this night. For it is wrytten. I will smyte ye shepe herde and the shepe of ye flocke shalbe scattered abroode.
32 But after I am rysen ageyne I will goo before you into Galile.
33 Peter answered and sayde vnto him: though all men shulde be offended by ye yet wolde I never be offended.
34 Iesus sayde vnto him. Verely I saye vnto ye that this same night before the cocke crowe thou shalt denye me thryse.
35 Peter sayde vnto him: Yf I shulde dye with ye yet wolde I not denye ye Lyke wyse also sayde all ye disciples.
36 Then went Iesus with them into a place which is called Gethsemane and sayde vnto the disciples syt ye here whyll I go and praye yonder.
37 And he toke with him Peter and the two sonnes of zebede and began to wexe sorowfull and to be in an agonye.
38 Then sayd Iesus vnto them: my soule is hevy even vnto the deeth. Tary ye here and watche wt me.
39 And he went a lytell aparte and fell flat on his face and prayed sayinge: O my father yf it be possible let this cuppe passe from me: neverthelesse not as I wyll but as thou wylt.
40 And he came vnto the disciples and founde them a slepe and sayde to Peter: what coulde ye not watche with me one houre:
41 watche and praye that ye fall not into temptacion. The spirite is willynge but the flesshe is weake.
42 He went awaye once moare and prayed sayinge: O my father yf this cuppe can not passe away from me but yt I drinke of it thy wyll be fulfylled.
43 And he came and founde the a slepe agayne. For their eyes were hevy.
44 And he lefte them and went agayne and prayed ye thrid tyme sayinge ye same wordes.
45 Then came he to his disciples and sayd vnto them: Slepe hence forth and take youre reest. Take hede the houre is at honde and ye sonne of man shalbe betrayed into ye hondes of synners.
46 Ryse let vs be goinge: beholde he is at honde yt shall betraye me.
47 Whyll he yet spake: lo Iudas one of ye xii. came and wt him a greate multitude wt sweardes and staves sent from the chefe prestes and elders of the people.
48 And he that betrayed him had geven the a token sayinge: whosoever I kysse yt same is he ley hondes on him.
49 And forth wt all he came to Iesus and sayde: hayle master and kyssed him.
50 And Iesus sayde vnto him: frende wherfore arte thou come? Then came they and layed hondes on Iesus and toke him.
51 And beholde one of them which were with Iesus stretched oute his honde and drue his swearde and stroke a servaunt of the hye preste and smote of his eare.
52 Then sayde Iesus vnto him: put vp thy swearde into his sheathe. For all that ley hond on ye swearde shall perisshe with ye swearde.
53 Ether thinkest thou that I cannot now praye to my father and he shall geve me moo then .xii. legions of angelles?
54 But how then shuld the scriptures be fulfylled: for so must it be.
55 The same tyme sayd Iesus to the multitude: ye be come out as it were vnto a thefe with sweardes and staves for to take me. I sate daylie teachinge in the temple amoge you and ye toke me not.
56 All this was done that the scriptures of the Prophetes myght be fulfilled.
57 Then all the disciples forsoke him and fleed. And they toke Iesus and leed him to Cayphas the hye preeste where the Scribes and the Elders where assembled.
58 And Peter folowed him a farre of vnto the hye prestes place: and went in and sate with the servauntes to se the ende.
59 The chefe prestes and the elders and all the counsell sought false witnes agenste Iesus for to put him to deeth
60 but founde none: in somoche that when many false witnesses cam yet founde they none. At the last came two false witnesses
61 and sayd: This felowe sayde: I can distroye the temple of God and bylde it agayne in .iii. dayes.
62 And the chefe preste arose and sayde to him: answerest thou nothinge? How is it yt these beare witnes ageynst the?
63 But Iesus helde his peace: And the chefe Preeste answered and sayd to him: I charge the in the name of the lyvinge God that thou tell vs whether thou be Christ the sonne of God.
64 Iesus sayd to him: thou haste sayd. Neverthelesse I saye vnto you hereafter shall ye se the sonne of ma syttinge on the right honde of power and come in the clowddes of the skye.
65 Then the hye preste rent his clothes sayinge: He hath blasphemed: what nede we of eny moo witnesses? Behold now ye have hearde his blasphemy:
66 what thinke ye? They answered and sayd: he his worthy to dye.
67 Then spat they in his face and boffeted him with fistes. And other smote him with the palme af their hondes
68 on ye face sayinge: tell vs thou Christ who is he that smote the?
69 Peter sate with out in the palice. And a damsell came to him sayinge: Thou also waste wt Iesus of Galilee:
70 but he denyed before the all sayinge: I woot not what thou sayst.
71 When he was goone out into the poorche another wenche sawe him and sayde vnto them that were there: This felowe was also with Iesus of Nazareth.
72 And agayne he denyed with an oothe that he knew the man.
73 And after a whyle came vnto him they yt stode bye and sayde vnto Peter: suerly thou arte even one of the for thy speache bewreyeth ye.
74 Then beganne he to course and to sweare that he knewe not the man. And immedyatly the cocke krewe.
75 And Peter remembred the wordes of Iesu which sayde vnto him: before the cocke crowe thou shalt deny me thryse: and went out at the dores and wepte bitterly.
