Luke 22
22
1 Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching. 2The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people.
3 Satan entered into Judah, who was also called Iscariot, who was counted with the twelve. 4He went away and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them. 5They were glad, and agreed to give him money. 6He consented and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude.
7 The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed. 8Yeshua sent Peter and Yochanan, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”
9 They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”
10 He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters. 11Tell the master of the house, ‘The Rabbi says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’ 12He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”
13 They went, found things as Yeshua had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
14 When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve emissaries. 15He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer, 16for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in God’s Kingdom.” 17He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this and share it amongst yourselves, 18for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until God’s Kingdom comes.”
19 He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.” 20Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. 21But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. 22The Son of Man indeed goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”
23 They began to question amongst themselves which of them it was who would do this thing.
24 A dispute also arose amongst them, which of them was considered to be greatest. 25He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26But not so with you. Rather, the one who is greater amongst you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves. 27For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am amongst you as one who serves.
28 “But you are those who have continued with me in my trials. 29I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me, 30that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
31 The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat, 32but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.”#22:32 The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.”
33 He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”
34 He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”
35 He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, bag, and sandals, did you lack anything?”
They said, “Nothing.”
36 Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword. 37For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’#Isaiah 53:12 For that which concerns me is being fulfilled.”
38 They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.”
He said to them, “That is enough.”
39 He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him. 40When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”
41 He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed, 42saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”
43 An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him. 44Being in agony, he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.
45 When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief, 46and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
47 While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judah, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Yeshua to kiss him. 48But Yeshua said to him, “Judah, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” 50A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51 But Yeshua answered, “Let me at least do this”—and he touched his ear and healed him. 52Yeshua said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? 53When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”
54 They seized him and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance. 55When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat amongst them. 56A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”
57 He denied Yeshua, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”
58 After a little while someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them!”
But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”
59 After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”
60 But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. 61The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.” 62He went out, and wept bitterly.
63 The men who held Yeshua mocked him and beat him. 64Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?” 65They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.
66 As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying, 67“If you are the Messiah, tell us.”
But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe, 68and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go. 69From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
70 They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?”
He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”
71 They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

1And the Festival of Matzot#Unleavened bread drew near, which is called Pĕsaḥ.#Passover.
2And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to kill Him, for they feared the people.
3And Satan entered into Yehuḏah, who was called man from Qerioth, who was numbered among the twelve.
4And he went and spoke with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver Him up to them.
5And they were glad, and agreed to give him silver.
6And he promised, and was seeking an occasion to deliver Him up to them, away from the crowd.
7And the Day of Unleavened Bread came when the Pĕsaḥ#Passover had to be slaughtered.
8And He sent Kĕpha and Yoḥanan, saying, “Go and prepare the Pĕsaḥ for us to eat.”
9And they said to Him, “Where do You wish us to prepare?”
10And He said to them, “See, as you enter into the city, a man shall meet you carrying a jar of water. Follow him into the house he enters.
11And you shall say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest room where I might eat the Pĕsaḥ with My taught ones?” ’
12And he shall show you a large, furnished upper room. Prepare it there.
13And going they found it as He had said to them, and they prepared the Pĕsaḥ.
14And when the hour had come, He sat down, and the twelve emissaries with Him.
15And He said to them, “With desire I have desired to eat this Pĕsaḥ with you before My suffering,
16for I say to you, I shall certainly not eat of it again until it is filled in the reign of Elohim.”
17And taking the cup, giving thanks, He said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves,
18for I say to you, I shall certainly not drink of the fruit of the vine until the reign of Elohim comes.”
19And taking bread, giving thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you, do this in remembrance of Me.”
20Likewise the cup also, after supper, saying, “This cup is the renewed covenant in My blood which is shed for you.
21“But see, the hand of him delivering Me up is with Me on the table.
22“For indeed the Son of Aḏam goes as it has been decreed, but woe to that man by whom He is delivered up!”
23And they began to ask among themselves, which of them it could be who was about to do this.
24And there also took place a dispute among them, as to which of them seemed to be greater.
25And He said to them, “The sovereigns of the nations rule over them, and those who control them are called ‘workers of good.’
26“But not so with you, but let him who is greatest among you be as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.
27“For who is greater, the one who sits at the table, or the one who serves? Is it not the one who sits at the table? But I am in your midst as the One who serves.
28“But you are those who have remained with Me in My trials.
29“And I covenant for you, as My Father covenanted for Me, a reign,
30to eat and drink at My table, in My reign, and to sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Yisra’ĕl.”
31And the Master said, “Shim‛on, Shim‛on! See, Satan has asked for you to sift you as wheat.
32But I have prayed for you, that your belief should not fail. And when you have turned, strengthen your brothers.
33And he said to Him, “Master, I am prepared to go with You, both to prison and to death.”
34And He said, “I say to you, Kĕpha, the cock shall not crow at all today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”
35And He said to them, “When I sent you without purse and bag and sandals, did you lack any?” And they said, “None at all.”
36And He said to them, “But now, let him who has a purse take it, likewise also a bag. And let him who has no sword sell his garment and buy one.
37For I say to you that what has been written has yet to be accomplished in Me, ‘And He was reckoned with lawless ones.’# Isa. 53:12 For that which refers to Me has an end too.
38And they said, “Master, look, here are two swords.” But He said to them, “That is enough!”
39And coming out, He went to the Mount of Olives, according to usage, and His taught ones also followed Him.
40And coming to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you do not enter into trial.”
41And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and falling on His knees He was praying,
42saying, “Father, if it be Your counsel, remove this cup from Me. Yet not My desire, but let Yours be done.”
43And there appeared a messenger from heaven to Him, strengthening Him.
44And being in agony, He was praying more earnestly. And His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
45And rising up from prayer, and coming to His taught ones, He found them sleeping from grief.
46And He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you enter into trial.”
47And while He was still speaking, see: a crowd! And he who was called Yehuḏah, one of the twelve, was going before them and came near to יהושע to kiss Him.
48And יהושע said to him, “Yehuḏah, do you deliver up the Son of Aḏam with a kiss?”
49And those around Him, seeing what was about to take place, said to Him, “Master, shall we strike with the sword?”
50And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
51But יהושע answering, said, “Allow it this far.” And touching his ear He healed him.
52And יהושע said to those who had come against Him, the chief priests and captains of the Set-apart Place and the elders, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
53While I was with you daily in the Set-apart Place, you did not lay hands on Me. But this is your hour and the authority of darkness.
54And having seized Him, they led Him and brought Him to the house of the high priest. And Kĕpha was following at a distance.
55And when they had lit a fire in the midst of the courtyard, and sat down together, Kĕpha sat among them.
56And a certain servant girl, seeing him as he sat by the fire, looked intently at him and said, “And this one was with Him.”
57But he denied Him, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”
58And after a little while another saw him and said, “You are one of them too.” But Kĕpha said, “Man, I am not!”
59And about an hour later, another insisted, saying, “Truly, this one was with Him too, for he is a Galilean too.”
60But Kĕpha said, “Man, I do not know what you are saying!” And immediately, while he was still speaking, a cock crowed.
61And the Master turned and looked at Kĕpha, and Kĕpha remembered the word of the Master, how He had said to him, “Before a cock crows, you shall deny Me three times.”
62And Kĕpha went out and wept bitterly.
63And the men who were holding יהושע were mocking Him, beating Him.
64And having blindfolded Him, they were striking Him on the face and were asking Him, saying, “Prophesy! Who is it that struck You?”
65And they said to Him much more, blaspheming.
66And when it became day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together and they led Him into their council, saying,
67If You are the Messiah, say it to us. And He said to them, “If I say to you, you would not believe it at all,
68and if I asked you, you would not answer Me at all.
69From now on the Son of Aḏam shall sit on the right hand of the power of# Psa. 110:1 Elohim.
70And they all said, “Are You then the Son of Elohim?” And He said to them, “You say that I am.”
71And they said, “Why do we need further witness? For we heard it ourselves from His mouth.”
