Why do you cause trouble for her?

27And Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, because it is written,
‘I will strike the shepherd
and the sheep will be scattered.’#A quotation from Zech 13:7
28But after I am raised, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.” 29But Peter said to him, “Even if they all fall away, certainly I will not!” 30And Jesus said to him, “Truly I say to you that today—this night—before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times!” 31But he kept saying emphatically, “If it is necessary for me to die with you, I will never deny you!” And they all were saying the same thing also.
The Prayer in Gethsemane
32And they came to a place named#Literally “the name of which” Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I pray.” 33And he took along Peter and James and John with him, and he began to be distressed and troubled. 34And he said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved, to the point of death. Remain here and stay awake.” 35And going forward a little he fell to the ground and began to pray#The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to pray”) that, if it were possible, the hour would pass from him. 36And he said, “Abba,#The word “Abba” means “father” in Aramaic Father, all things are possible for you! Take away this cup from me! Yet not what I will, but what you will.”#*Here the verb “will” is an understood repetition of the verb earlier in this verse 37And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not able to stay awake one hour? 38Stay awake and pray that you will not enter into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak!” 39And again he went away and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“went away”) has been translated as a finite verb prayed, saying the same thing. 40And again he came and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“came”) has been translated as a finite verb found them sleeping, for they could not keep their eyes open,#Literally “for their eyes were weighed down” and they did not know what to reply to him. 41And he came the third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough! The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42Get up, let us go! Behold, the one who is betraying me is approaching!”

43And immediately, while#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“was … speaking”) he was still speaking, Judas—one of the twelve—arrived, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders. 44Now the one who was betraying him had given them a sign, saying, “The one whom I kiss—he is the one.#*Here the predicate nominative (“the one”) is implied Arrest him and lead him#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation away under guard!” 45And when he#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“arrived”) which is understood as temporal arrived, he came up to him immediately and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“came up”) has been translated as a finite verb said, “Rabbi,” and kissed him. 46So they laid hands on him and arrested him.
47But a certain one of the bystanders, drawing his#Literally “the”; the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun sword, struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his ear. 48And Jesus answered and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“answered”) has been translated as a finite verb said to them, “Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber, to arrest me? 49Every day I was with you in the temple courts#*Here “courts” is supplied to distinguish this area from the interior of the temple building itself teaching, and you did not arrest me! But this has happened#The phrase “this has happened” is not in the Greek text, but is understood and must be supplied in the translation because of English style; cf. the parallel in Matt 26:56 in order that the scriptures would be fulfilled. 50And they all abandoned him and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“abandoned”) has been translated as a finite verb fled.
51And a certain young man was following him, clothed only in a linen cloth on his naked body. And they attempted to seize#*Here the present tense is translated as a conative present (“attempted to”) him, 52but he left behind the linen cloth and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“left behind”) has been translated as a finite verb fled naked.
Jesus Before the Sanhedrin
53And they led Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes came together. 54And Peter followed him from a distance, right inside, into the courtyard of the high priest. And he was sitting with the officers and warming himself by the fire. 55Now the chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for testimony against Jesus in order to put him to death, and they did not find it.#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation 56For many gave false testimony against him, and their#Literally “the”; the Greek article is used here as a possessive pronoun testimony was not consistent. 57And some stood up and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“stood up”) has been translated as a finite verb began to give false testimony#The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to give false testimony”) against him, saying, 58“We heard him saying, ‘I will destroy this temple made by hands, and within three days I will build another not made by hands.” 59And their testimony was not even consistent about this. 60And the high priest stood up in the midst of them and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“stood up”) has been translated as a finite verb asked Jesus, saying, “Do you not reply anything? What are these people testifying against you?” 61But he was silent and did not reply anything.

What do you think?”#Literally “does it seem to you” And they all condemned him as deserving death.#Literally “to be deserving of death” 65And some began to spit on him and to cover his face and to strike him with their fists, and to say to him “Prophesy!” And the officers received him with slaps in the face.#Or “with blows” (either meaning is possible here)
Peter Denies Jesus Three Times
66And while#*Here “while” is supplied as a component of the temporal genitive absolute participle (“was”) Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the female slaves of the high priest came up 67And when#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“saw”) which is understood as temporal she saw Peter warming himself, she looked intently at him and#*Here “and” is supplied because the previous participle (“looked intently at”) has been translated as a finite verb said, “You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus.” 68But he denied it,#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation saying, “I neither know nor understand what you mean!” And he went out into the gateway, and a rooster crowed.#Several important and early manuscripts lack the words “and a rooster crowed” 69And the female slave, when she#*Here “when” is supplied as a component of the participle (“saw”) which is understood as temporal saw him, began to say again to the bystanders, “This man is one of them!” 70But he denied it#*Here the direct object is supplied from context in the English translation again.

And Peter remembered the statement, how Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times,” and throwing himself down, he began to weep.#The imperfect tense has been translated as ingressive here (“began to weep”)
