Mark (Mrk) 14:32-42

Mark (Mrk) 14:32-42 CJB

They went to a place called Gat Sh’manim; and Yeshua said to his talmidim, “Sit here while I pray.” He took with him Kefa, Ya‘akov and Yochanan. Great distress and anguish came over him; and he said to them, “My heart is so filled with sadness that I could die! Remain here and stay awake.” Going on a little farther, he fell on the ground and prayed that if possible, the hour might pass from him: “Abba!” (that is, “Dear Father!”) “All things are possible for you. Take this cup away from me! Still, not what I want, but what you want.” He came and found them sleeping; and he said to Kefa, “Shim‘on, are you asleep? Couldn’t you stay awake one hour? Stay awake, and pray that you will not be put to the test — the spirit indeed is eager, but human nature is weak.” Again he went away and prayed, saying the same words; and again he came and found them sleeping, their eyes were so very heavy; and they didn’t know what to answer him. The third time, he came and said to them, “For now, go on sleeping, take your rest. . . .There, that’s enough! The time has come! Look! The Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners! Get up! Let’s go! Here comes my betrayer!”
