Mateus 26

36 Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane. He told them, "Sit down here while I go over there and pray." 37 He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with him, and he began to suffer agonizing sorrow and distress. 38 Then he said to them, "I am so overwhelmed with sadness that it’s killing me. Wait here and keep watch with me." 39 He went a little farther forward, fell facedown, and prayed.

"My Father, please, if it’s possible, let this cup of suffering be taken from me," Jesus asked. "Even so, may it not be what I want but what you want."

40 He went back to the disciples and found them asleep. He said to Peter, "What, you couldn’t stay awake with me for just one hour? 41 Stay awake and pray, so that you don’t fall into temptation. Yes, the spirit is willing, but the body is weak." 42 He went away a second time and prayed.

"My Father, if this cup cannot be taken from me without me drinking from it, then your will be done," he said. 43 He went back and found them sleeping, for they just couldn’t stay awake.*26:43. Literally, "their eyes were weighed down." 44 So he left them once more, and went off and prayed a third time, repeating the same things. 45 Then he returned to the disciples, and told them, "How can you still be sleeping and resting? Look, the time has come. The Son of man is about to be betrayed into the hands of sinners! 46 Get up, let’s go! Look, the one who’s betraying me has arrived."
