Luke 22
22
1 Now the days of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called Passover, were approaching.
2 And the leaders of the priests, and the scribes, were seeking a way to execute Jesus. Yet truly, they were afraid of the people.
3 Then Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve.
4 And he went out and was speaking with the leaders of the priests, and the magistrates, as to how he might hand him over to them.
5 And they were glad, and so they made an agreement to give him money.
6 And he made a promise. And he was seeking an opportunity to hand him over, apart from the crowds.
7 Then the day of Unleavened Bread arrived, on which it was necessary to kill the Pascal lamb.
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, "Go out, and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat."
9 But they said, "Where do you want us to prepare it?"
10 And he said to them: "Behold, as you are entering into the city, a certain man will meet you, carrying a pitcher of water. Follow him to the house into which he enters.
11 And you shall say to the father of the household: 'The Teacher says to you: Where is the guestroom, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?'
12 And he will show you a large cenacle, fully furnished. And so, prepare it there."
13 And going out, they found it to be just as he had told them. And they prepared the Passover.
14 And when the hour had arrived, he sat down at table, and the twelve Apostles with him.
15 And he said to them: "With longing have I desired to eat this Passover with you, before I suffer.
16 For I say to you, that from this time, I will not eat it, until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God."
17 And having taken the chalice, he gave thanks, and he said: "Take this and share it among yourselves.
18 For I say to you, that I will not drink from the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God arrives."
19 And taking bread, he gave thanks and broke it and gave it to them, saying: "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this as a commemoration of me."
20 Similarly also, he took the chalice, after he had eaten the meal, saying: "This chalice is the new covenant in my blood, which will be shed for you.
21 But in truth, behold, the hand of my betrayer is with me at table.
22 And indeed, the Son of man goes according to what has been determined. And yet, woe to that man by whom he will be betrayed."
23 And they began to inquire among themselves, as to which of them might do this.
24 Now there was also a contention among them, as to which of them seemed to be the greater.
25 And he said to them: "The kings of the Gentiles dominate them; and those who hold authority over them are called beneficent.
26 But it must not be so with you. Instead, whoever is greater among you, let him become the lesser. And whoever is the leader, let him become the server.
27 For who is greater: he who sits at table, or he who serves? Is not he who sits at table? Yet I am in your midst as one who serves.
28 But you are those who have remained with me during my trials.
29 And I dispose to you, just as my Father has disposed to me, a kingdom,
30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and so that you may sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel."
31 And the Lord said: "Simon, Simon! Behold, Satan has asked for you, so that he may sift you like wheat.
32 But I have prayed for you, so that your faith may not fail, and so that you, once converted, may confirm your brothers."
33 And he said to him, "Lord, I am prepared to go with you, even to prison and to death."
34 And he said, "I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you have three times denied that you know me." And he said to them,
35 "When I sent you without money or provisions or shoes, did you lack anything?"
36 And they said, "Nothing." Then he said to them: "But now, let whoever has money take it, and likewise with provisions. And whoever does not have these, let him sell his coat and buy a sword.
37 For I say to you, that what has been written must still be fulfilled in me: 'And he was esteemed with the wicked.' Yet even these things about me have an end."
38 So they said, "Lord, behold, there are two swords here." But he said to them, "It is sufficient."
39 And departing, he went out, according to his custom, to the Mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him.
40 And when he had arrived at the place, he said to them: "Pray, lest you enter into temptation."
41 And he was separated from them by about a stone's throw. And kneeling down, he prayed,
42 saying: "Father, if you are willing, take this chalice away from me. Yet truly, let not my will, but yours, be done."
43 Then an Angel appeared to him from heaven, strengthening him. And being in agony, he prayed more intensely;
44 and so his sweat became like drops of blood, running down to the ground.
45 And when he had risen up from prayer and had gone to his disciples, he found them sleeping out of sorrow.
46 And he said to them: "Why are you sleeping? Rise up, pray, lest you enter into temptation."
47 While he was still speaking, behold, a crowd arrived. And he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, went ahead of them and approached Jesus, in order to kiss him.
48 And Jesus said to him, "Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?"
49 Then those who were around him, realizing what was about to happen, said to him: "Lord, shall we strike with the sword?"
50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
51 But in response, Jesus said, "Permit even this." And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the leaders of the priests, and the magistrates of the temple, and the elders, who had come to him: "Have you gone out, as if against a thief, with swords and clubs?
53 When I was with you each day in the temple, you did not extend your hands against me. But this is your hour and that of the power of darkness."
54 And apprehending him, they led him to the house of the high priest. Yet truly, Peter followed at a distance.
55 Now as they were sitting around a fire, which had been kindled in the middle of the atrium, Peter was in their midst.
56 And when a certain woman servant had seen him sitting in its light, and had looked at him intently, she said, "This one was also with him."
57 But he denied him by saying, "Woman, I do not know him."
58 And after a little while, another one, seeing him, said, "You also are one of them." Yet Peter said, "O man, I am not."
59 And after the interval of about one hour had passed, someone else affirmed it, saying: "Truly, this one also was with him. For he is also a Galilean."
60 And Peter said: "Man, I do not know what you are saying." And at once, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
61 And the Lord turned around and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord that he had said: "For before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times."
62 And going out, Peter wept bitterly.
63 And the men who were holding him ridiculed him and beat him.
64 And they blindfolded him and repeatedly struck his face. And they questioned him, saying: "Prophesy! Who is it that struck you?"
65 And blaspheming in many other ways, they spoke against him.
66 And when it was daytime, the elders of the people, and the leaders of the priests, and the scribes convened. And they led him into their council, saying, "If you are the Christ, tell us."
67 And he said to them: "If I tell you, you will not believe me.
68 And if I also question you, you will not answer me. Neither will you release me.
69 But from this time, the Son of man will be sitting at the right hand of the power of God."
70 Then they all said, "So you are the Son of God?" And he said. "You are saying that I am."
71 And they said: "Why do we still require testimony? For we have heard it ourselves, from his own mouth."

Luke 22
22
1Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. 2And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death; for they feared the people.
3And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. 4And he went away, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them. 5And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. 6And he consented, and sought opportunity to deliver him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
7And the day of unleavened bread came, on which the passover must be sacrificed. 8And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat. 9And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we make ready? 10And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whereinto he goeth. 11And ye shall say unto the master of the house, The Teacher saith unto thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? 12And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. 13And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
14And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the apostles with him. 15And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16for I say unto you, I shall not eat it, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. 17And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: 18for I say unto you, I shall not drink from henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. 19And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. 20And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, even that which is poured out for you. 21But behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table. 22For the Son of man indeed goeth, as it hath been determined: but woe unto that man through whom he is betrayed! 23And they began to question among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
24And there arose also a contention among them, which of them was accounted to be greatest. 25And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles have lordship over them; and they that have authority over them are called Benefactors. 26But ye shall not be so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. 27For which is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth. 28But ye are they that have continued with me in my temptations; 29and I appoint unto you a kingdom, even as my Father appointed unto me, 30that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
31Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat: 32but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou hast turned again, establish thy brethren. 33And he said unto him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death. 34And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.
35And he said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, and wallet, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing. 36And he said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet; and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword. 37For I say unto you, that this which is written must be fulfilled in me, And he was reckoned with transgressors: for that which concerneth me hath fulfilment. 38And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.
39And he came out, and went, as his custom was, unto the mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed him. 40And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41And he was parted from them about a stone’s cast; and he kneeled down and prayed, 42saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. 44And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground. 45And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow, 46and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.
47While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. 48But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? 49And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? 50And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear. 51But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye them thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him. 52And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, that were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves? 53When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.
54And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed afar off. 55And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them. 56And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light of the fire, and looking stedfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him. 57But he denied, saying, Woman, I know him not. 58And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not. 59And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilæan. 60But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew. 61And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how that he said unto him, Before the cock crow this day thou shalt deny me thrice. 62And he went out, and wept bitterly.
63And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him. 64And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee? 65And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.
66And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying, 67If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe: 68and if I ask you, ye will not answer. 69But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God. 70And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am. 71And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
