1 When Jesus had finished all these words, he said to his disciples, 2 "You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified."
3 Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas. 4 They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit and kill him. 5 But they said, "Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people."
6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, 7 a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table. 8 But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste? 9 For this ointment might have been sold for much and given to the poor."
10 However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a good work for me. 11 For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me. 12 For in pouring this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial. 13 Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her."
14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 15 and said, "What are you willing to give me if I deliver him to you?" So they weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver. 16 From that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
17 Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, "Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?"
18 He said, "Go into the city to a certain person, and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, "My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples."’"
19 The disciples did as Jesus commanded them, and they prepared the Passover.
20 Now when evening had come, he was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples. 21 As they were eating, he said, "Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me."
22 They were exceedingly sorrowful, and each began to ask him, "It isn’t me, is it, Lord?"
23 He answered, "He who dipped his hand with me in the dish will betray me. 24 The Son of Man goes even as it is written of him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born."
25 Judas, who betrayed him, answered, "It isn’t me, is it, Rabbi?"
He said to him, "You said it."
26 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is my body." 27 He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, "All of you drink it, 28 for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I tell you that I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on, until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father’s Kingdom."
30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31 Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, 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 Peter answered him, "Even if all will be made to stumble because of you, I will never be made to stumble."
34 Jesus said to him, "Most certainly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times."
35 Peter said to him, "Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you." All of the disciples also said likewise.
36 Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go there and pray." 37 He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and severely troubled. 38 Then he said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with me."
39 He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire."
40 He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What, couldn’t you watch with me for one hour? 41 Watch and pray, that you don’t enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
42 Again, a second time he went away and prayed, saying, "My Father, if this cup can’t pass away from me unless I drink it, your desire be done."
43 He came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. 44 He left them again, went away, and prayed a third time, saying the same words. 45 Then he came to his disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Arise, let’s be going. Behold, he who betrays me is at hand."
47 While he was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and elders of the people. 48 Now he who betrayed him had given them a sign, saying, "Whoever I kiss, he is the one. Seize him." 49 Immediately he came to Jesus, and said, "Greetings, Rabbi!" and kissed him.
50 Jesus said to him, "Friend, why are you here?"
Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him. 51 Behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
52 Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place, for all those who take the sword will die by the sword. 53 Or do you think that I couldn’t ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels? 54 How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must be so?"
55 In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, "Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you didn’t arrest me. 56 But all this has happened that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled."
Then all the disciples left him and fled.
57 Those who had taken Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together. 58 But Peter followed him from a distance to the court of the high priest, and entered in and sat with the officers, to see the end.
59 Now the chief priests, the elders, and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, that they might put him to death, 60 and they found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward 61 and said, "This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.’"
62 The high priest stood up and said to him, "Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?" 63 But Jesus stayed silent. The high priest answered him, "I adjure you by the living God that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God."
64 Jesus said to him, "You have said so. Nevertheless, I tell you, after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of the sky."
65 Then the high priest tore his clothing, saying, "He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Behold, now you have heard his blasphemy. 66 What do you think?"
They answered, "He is worthy of death!" 67 Then they spat in his face and beat him with their fists, and some slapped him, 68 saying, "Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who hit you?"
69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the court, and a maid came to him, saying, "You were also with Jesus, the Galilean!"
70 But he denied it before them all, saying, "I don’t know what you are talking about."
71 When he had gone out onto the porch, someone else saw him and said to those who were there, "This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth."
72 Again he denied it with an oath, "I don’t know the man."
73 After a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, "Surely you are also one of them, for your speech makes you known."
74 Then he began to curse and to swear, "I don’t know the man!"
Immediately the rooster crowed. 75 Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." Then he went out and wept bitterly.
1 耶稣说完了这一切话， 就对门徒说：
2 "你们知道两天之后就是逾越节， 人子将要被交给人， 钉在十字架上。"
3 那时， 祭司长和民间的长老聚集在大祭司该亚法的官邸，
4 商议怎样用诡计逮捕耶稣， 把他杀害。
5 不过他们说： "不可在节期下手， 免得引起民众暴动。"
6 耶稣在伯大尼， 在患痲风的西门家里的时候，
7 有一个女人拿着一瓶珍贵的香膏， 前来把它浇在耶稣的头上。
8 门徒看见了， 就很生气， 说： "为什么这样浪费呢？
9 这香膏可以卖很多钱， 赒济穷人。"
10 耶稣知道了， 就说： "为什么难为这个女人呢？她为我作了一件美事。
11 你们常常有穷人跟你们在一起， 然而却不常有我。
12 她把这香膏浇在我身上， 是为了安葬我而作的。
13 我实在告诉你们， 这福音无论传到世界上什么地方， 这女人所作的都要传讲， 来记念她。"
14 那时， 十二门徒中的一个， 就是加略人犹大， 去见祭司长， 说：
15 "如果我把他交给你们， 你们愿意给我什么呢？"他们就给了他三十块银子。
16 从那时起， 他就找机会把耶稣交给他们。
17 除酵节的第一天， 门徒前来问耶稣： "你要我们在哪里为你预备逾越节的晚餐呢？"
18 他说： "你们到城里去见某人， 对他说， 老师说： ‘我的时候快到了； 我要到你那里和我的门徒守逾越节。’"
19 门徒照耶稣的指示去作， 预备好了逾越节的晚餐。
20 到了晚上， 耶稣和十二门徒一同吃晚餐。
21 他们吃的时候， 耶稣说： "我实在告诉你们， 你们中间有一个人要出卖我。"
22 他们就很忧愁， 一个一个地问他： "主啊， 是我吗？"
23 他回答： "那和我一同把手蘸在盘子里的人， 他要出卖我。
24 正如经上指着人子所说的， 他固然要离世， 但出卖人子的那人有祸了！ 他没有生下来倒好。"
25 那出卖耶稣的犹大说： "拉比， 是我吗？"他说： "这是你说的。"
26 他们吃的时候， 耶稣拿起饼来， 祝谢了就擘开， 递给门徒， 说： "你们拿去吃吧， 这是我的身体。"
27 耶稣又拿起杯来， 祝谢了就递给他们， 说： "你们都喝吧，
28 这是我的血， 是为立约的， 为许多人流出来， 使罪得赦。
29 我告诉你们， 从今以后我必不再喝这葡萄酒， 直到我和你们在我父的国里喝新酒的那一天。"
30 他们唱完了诗， 就出来往橄榄山去。
31 那时， 耶稣对他们说： "今天晚上， 你们因我的缘故都要后退， 因为经上记着： ‘我要击打牧人， 羊群就分散了。’
32 我复活以后， 要比你们先到加利利去。"
33 彼得对他说： "就算所有的人都因你的缘故后退， 我却永不后退。"
34 耶稣对他说： "我实在告诉你， 今天晚上鸡叫以前， 你会三次不认我。"
35 彼得对他说： "就算必须与你一同死， 我也决不会不认你。"门徒也都这样说。
36 耶稣和门徒来到一个地方， 名叫客西马尼， 就对门徒说： "你们坐在这里， 我要到那边去祷告。"
37 他带了彼得和西庇太的两个儿子一起去， 心里忧愁难过，
38 对他们说： "我的心灵痛苦得快要死了； 你们留在这里， 与我一同警醒吧。"
39 他稍往前走， 把脸俯伏在地上， 祷告说： "我的父啊！ 可能的话， 求你使这杯离开我； 但不要照我的意思， 只要照你的旨意。"
40 耶稣回到门徒那里， 看见他们都睡着了， 就对彼得说： "你们连一个小时也不能同我警醒吗？
41 应当警醒、祷告， 免得陷入试探； 你们心灵虽然愿意， 肉体却是软弱的。"
42 他又再次走开， 祷告说： "我的父啊！ 如果这杯不能离开我， 一定要我喝， 就愿你的旨意成全。"
43 他再回来的时候， 看见门徒睡着了， 因为他们十分疲倦。
44 他又离开他们， 第三次去祷告， 说的也是同样的话。
45 然后， 他回到门徒那里， 对他们说： "你们还在睡觉休息吗？看哪， 时候到了， 人子要被交在罪人的手里了。
46 起来， 我们走吧！ 出卖我的人来了。"
47 耶稣还在说话的时候， 十二门徒中的犹大， 带着一大群拿着刀棒的人来到， 他们是祭司长和民间的长老派来的。
48 出卖耶稣的人给他们一个暗号， 说： "我跟谁亲嘴， 谁就是他； 你们可以抓住他。"
49 他立刻前来对耶稣说： "拉比， 你好。"跟着就与他亲嘴。
50 耶稣对他说： "朋友， 你来要作的事， 快作吧！ "于是那些人上前来， 动手拿住耶稣， 逮捕了他。
51 有一个与耶稣在一起的人， 伸手拔出刀来， 砍了大祭司的仆人一刀， 削掉他的一只耳朵。
52 耶稣对他说： "把你的刀收回原处！ 凡动刀的必死在刀下。
53 你以为我不能求我的父， 他就马上给我派十二营以上的天使下来吗？
54 如果这样， 经上预言这事必须发生， 怎能应验呢？"
55 那时， 耶稣对众人说： "你们带着刀棒出来， 把我当作强盗捉拿吗？我天天坐在殿里教导人， 你们却没有逮捕我。
56 但这整件事的发生， 是要应验先知书上的话。"那时， 门徒都离开他逃跑了。
57 那些逮捕了耶稣的人， 把他押去见大祭司该亚法。那时经学家和长老已经聚集在那里了。
58 彼得远远地跟着耶稣， 直到大祭司的官邸。他进到里面， 和差役坐在一起， 要看事情怎样了结。
59 祭司长和公议会全体都想找假证供来控告耶稣， 好把他处死；
60 虽然有许多人前来作假证供， 却找不着证据。最后有两个人前来说：
61 "这人说过： ‘我可以拆毁 神的圣所， 三日之内又把它建造起来。’"
62 大祭司就站起来， 对耶稣说： "你为什么不回答？这些人作证， 控告你的是什么呢？"
63 耶稣却不作声。大祭司又对他说： "我指着永生的 神要你起誓， 告诉我们你是不是基督、 神的儿子。"
64 耶稣回答： "这是你说的； 但我告诉你们： 从今以后， 你们要看见人子， 坐在权能者的右边， 驾着天上的云降临。"
65 大祭司就撕开衣服， 说： "他说了亵渎的话， 我们还要什么证人呢？你们现在听见了这亵渎的话，
66 认为怎样呢？"他们回答： "他是该死的。"
67 于是他们吐唾沫在他的脸上， 用拳头打他， 也有人用掌掴他， 说：
68 "基督啊， 向我们说预言吧！ 是谁打你呢？"
69 彼得坐在外面的院子里， 有一个婢女走过来对他说： "你也是和加利利人耶稣一伙的。"
70 彼得却当众否认， 说： "我不知道你说什么。"
71 他出到门口， 又有一个婢女看见他， 就对那里的人说： "这人是和拿撒勒人耶稣一伙的。"
72 彼得再次否认， 并且发誓说： "我不认识那个人。"
73 过了一会， 站在那里的人前来对他说： "你的确是他们中间的一个， 因为一听你的口音就认出来了。"
74 彼得就发咒起誓说： "我不认识那一个人。"立刻鸡就叫了。
75 彼得想起耶稣所说的话： "鸡叫以前， 你会三次不认我"， 他就出去痛哭。
