| [1]BUT the feast of the Phatiree, which is called Petscha, drew on. |
[1]Now the feast of unleavened bread drew near, which is called the Passover. |
| [2]And the chief priests and the Sophree sought how they might kill him; for they feared from the people. |
[2]And the high Priests and Scribes sought how they might kill him: for they feared the people. |
| [3]But Satana entered into Jihuda called Scarjuta, who was of the number of the twelve. |
[3]Then entered Satan into Judas, who was called Iscariot, and was of the number of the twelve. |
| [4]And he went, and spoke with the chief priests, and the Sophree, and the chief authorities of the temple, how he would deliver him to them. |
[4]And he went his way, and communed with the high Priests and captains, how he might betray him to them. |
| [5]And they were glad, and confirmed to give him silver. |
[5]So they were glad, and agreed to give him money. |
| [6]And he promised to them, and sought him opportunity to betray him apart from the multitude. |
[6]And he consented, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them, when the people were away. |
| [7]And the day of unleavened bread came, on which it was the custom to slay the petscha.ⓘ |
[7]Â Then came the day of unleavened bread when the Passover must be sacrificed. |
| [8]And Jeshu sent Kipha and Juchanon, and said to them, Go prepare for us the petscha, that we may eat. |
[8]And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go, and prepare us the Passover, that we may eat it. |
| [9]But they said to him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? |
[9]And they said to him, Where wilt thou, that we prepare it? |
| [10]He saith to them, When, you have entered into the city, a man meeteth you, bearing a pitcher of waters; go after him, |
[10]Then he said unto them, Behold, when ye be entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water: follow him into the house that he entereth in, |
| [11]And when he hath gone in, say to the lord of the house, Our Master saith, Is there a dining-place where I may eat the petscha with my disciples? |
[11]And say unto the good man of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the lodging where I shall eat my Passover with my disciples? |
| [12]And he will show you a certain large upper chamber which is furnished: there make ready. |
[12]Then he shall show you a great high chamber trimmed: there make it ready. |
| [13]And they went, and found as he had told them: and they prepared the petscha. |
[13]So they went and found as he had said unto them, and made ready the Passover. |
| [14]And when it was time, Jeshu came and reclined, and the twelve apostles with him. |
[14]And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve Apostles with him. |
| [15]And he said to them, With desire have I desired to eat this petscha with you before I suffer: |
[15]Then he said unto them, I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. |
| [16]For I tell you that from henceforth I shall not eat it, until it shall have been fulfilled in the kingdom of Aloha. |
[16]For I say unto you, Henceforth I will not eat of it any more, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. |
| [17]And he took the cup, and praised, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: |
[17]And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among you. |
| [18]For I tell you that I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of Aloha shall have come. |
[18]For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God be come. |
| [19]And he took bread, and praised, and brake, and gave to them, and said, This is my body which for you is given: this do in my memory.ⓘ |
[19]And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he break it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you: do this in the remembrance of me. |
| [20]And thus also respecting the cup, when, after they had supped, he said, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which for you is shed.ⓘ |
[20]Likewise also after supper he took the cup, saying, This cup is the New Testament in my blood, which is shed for you. |
| [21]Nevertheless, the hand of him who betrayeth me is on the table. |
[21]Yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table. |
| [22]And the Son of man goeth, as he was set apart:ⓘ nevertheless woe to that man by whom he is betrayed! |
[22]And truly the Son of man goeth as it is appointed: but woe be to that man, by whom he is betrayed. |
| [23]And they began to inquire among themselves, who it was of them who this should do. |
[23]Then they began to enquire among themselves which of them it should be, that should do that. |
| [24]But there was also a contention among them, who of them was the greatest. |
[24]Â And there arose also a strife among them, which of them should seem to be the greatest. |
| [25]And Jeshu said to them, The kings of the Gentiles are their lords; and they who exercise authority over them, doers of good are called. |
[25]But he said unto them, The Kings of the Gentiles reign over them, and they that bear rule over them, are called Gracious lords. |
| [26]But you, not so: yea, he who is great among you, let him be as the least; and he who is chief, as one who serveth. |
[26]But ye shall not be so: but let the greatest among you be as the least: and the chiefest as he that serveth. |
| [27]For who is greatest, he who reclineth, or he who serveth? Is not he who reclineth? But I am among you as he who serveth. |
[27]For who is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? Is not he that sitteth at table? And I am among you as he that serveth. |
| [28]You are they who have remained with me in my temptations. |
[28]And ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. |
| [29]And I promise to you, as hath promised to me my Father, a kingdom; |
[29]Therefore I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed to me, |
| [30]That you may eat and drink at the table in my kingdom, and may sit upon thrones, and judge the twelve tribes of Isroel. |
[30]That ye may eat, and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on seats, and judge the twelve tribes of Israel. |
| [31]AND Jeshu said to Shemun, Shemun, behold, Satana, demandeth to sift thee as wheat; |
[31]Â And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired you, to winnow you as wheat. |
| [32]But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith may not fail: and thou also, in the time that thou art converted, confirm thy brethren. |
[32]But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: therefore when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. |
| [33]But Shemun said to him, My Lord, with thee I am prepared, and for the house of the bound, and for death. |
[33]And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee into prison, and to death. |
| [34]Jeshu saith to him, I tell thee, Shemun, that the cock will not crow to-day, till three times thou hast denied that thou knowest me. |
[34]But he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before thou hast thrice denied that thou knewest me. |
| [35]And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, or scrip, or shoes, was any thing wanting to you? They say to him, Nothing. |
[35]Â And he said unto them, When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. |
| [36]He saith to them, Henceforth, he who hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip also; and he who hath not a sword, let him sell his garment and buy a sword. |
[36]Then he said to them, But now he that hath a bag, let him take it, and likewise a scrip: and he that hath none, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword. |
| [37]For I tell you also, that what is written must be fulfilled in me, that with the transgressors he was numbered: for all which concerns me must be accomplished. |
[37]For I say unto you, That yet the same which is written, must be performed in me, Even with the wicked was he numbered: for doubtless those things which are written of me, have an end. |
| [38]And they say to him, Our Lord, behold, here are two swords. He saith to them, They suffice. |
[38]And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough. |
| [39]And he came forth, and went, as he was used, to the mount of the Place of Olives; and his disciples also went after him. |
[39]Â And he came out, and went (as he was wont) to the Mount of Olives: and his disciples also followed him. |
| [40]And when come unto the spot, he said to them, Pray that you enter not into temptation. |
[40]And when he came to the place, he said to them, Pray, lest ye enter into temptation. |
| [41]And he removed from them as [about the distance of] a stone's throw, and bowed the knee, and prayed, |
[41]And he gate himself from them, about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, |
| [42]And said, Father, if thou wilt, let this cup pass: nevertheless not my will, but thine be done. |
[42]Saying, Father, if thou wilt, take away this cup from me: nevertheless, not my will, but thine be done. |
| [43]And an angel appeared to him from heaven, who strengthened him. |
[43]And there appeared an Angel unto him from heaven, comforting him. |
| [44]And being in terror, more vehemently he prayed, and his sweat was as drops of blood, and fell upon the ground. |
[44]But being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was like drops of blood, trickling down to the ground. |
| [45]And he arose from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them asleep, from sorrow. |
[45]And he rose up from prayer, and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for heaviness. |
| [46]And he said to them, Why sleep you? arise and pray, that you enter not into temptation. |
[46]And he said unto them, Why sleep ye? Rise and pray, least ye enter into temptation. |
| [47]And as he was speaking, behold a multitude, and behold him who was called Jihuda, one of the twelve, coming before them, and he came nigh to Jeshu, and kissed him: for this was the sign he had given to them, He whom I shall kiss is he. |
[47]Â And while he yet spake, behold a company, and he that was called Judas one of the twelve, went before them, and came near unto Jesus to kiss him. |
| [48]Jeshu saith to him, Jihuda, with the kiss betrayest thou the Son of man?ⓘ |
[48]And Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? |
| [49]But when they who were with him saw what was done, they say to him, Our Lord, shall we strike with the sword? |
[49]Now when they which were about him, saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with sword? |
| [50]And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and took off his right ear. |
[50]And one of them smote a servant of the high Priest, and struck off his right ear. |
| [51]Jeshu answered and said, It sufficeth until this; and he touched his ear which he had struck, and healed it. |
[51]Then Jesus answered, and said, Suffer them thus far: and he touched his ear, and healed him. |
| [52]And Jeshu said to them who had come against him, the chief priests, and elders, and the chiefs of the forces of the temple, As against a thief are you come forth against me, with swords and clubs to take me? |
[52]Then Jesus said unto the high Priests, and captains of the Temple, and the Elders which were come to him, Be ye come out as unto a thief with swords and staves? |
| [53]Every day with you have I been in the temple, and you did not stretch forth upon me [your] hands; but this is your hour and the power of darkness. |
[53]When I was daily with you in the Temple, ye stretched not forth the hands against me: but this is your very hour, and the power of darkness. |
| [54]And they took [and] brought him to the house of the chief of the priests; and Shemun came after him from afar. |
[54]Â Then took they him, and led him, and brought him to the high Priest's house. And Peter followed afar off. |
| [55]Now they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were sitting around it, and Shemun also sat with them. |
[55]And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter also sat down among them. |
| [56]And a certain damsel saw him as he sat by the fire, and, looking at him, she said, This also was with him. |
[56]And a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and having well looked on him, said, This man was also with him. |
| [57]But he denied, and said, Woman, I know him not. |
[57]But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. |
| [58]And after a little while, another saw him, and said, Thou also art of them. But Kipha said, I am not. |
[58]And after a little while, another man saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not. |
| [59]And after one hour another contended and said, Assuredly this also was with him, for he is also a Galiloya. |
[59]And about the space of an hour after a certain other affirmed, saying, Verily even this man was with him: for he is also a Galilean. |
| [60]Kipha saith, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And at once, while he was speaking, the cock crew. |
[60]And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately while he yet spake, the cock crew. |
| [61]And Jeshu turned, and looked upon Kipha; and Shemun remembered his word which our Lord had spoken to him, that before the cock shall crow thou wilt have denied me three times. |
[61]Then the Lord turned back, and looked upon Peter: and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. |
| [62]And Shemun went without and wept bitterly. |
[62]And Peter went out, and wept bitterly. |
| [63]And the men who held Jeshu mocked him, and veiled him, |
[63]Â And the men that held Jesus, mocked him, and struck him. |
| [64]And they struck him upon the face, saying, Prophesy, who struck thee. |
[64]And when they had blindfolded him, they smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy who it is that smote thee. |
| [65]And many other things they blasphemed and spake against him. |
[65]And many other things blasphemously spake they against him. |
| [66]AND when it dawned, the elders and chief priests and the Sophree came together, and took him into the house of their assembly; |
[66]And as soon as it was day, the Elders of the people, and the high Priests and the Scribes came together, and led him into their Council, |
| [67]Saying to him, Art thou the Meshicha? tell us. He saith to them, Should I tell you, you would not believe me; |
[67]Saying, Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe it. |
| [68]And were I to ask you, you would not return me a word, nor release me. |
[68]And if also I ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go. |
| [69]Henceforth the Son of man sitteth at the right hand of the power of Aloha. |
[69]Hereafter shall the Son of man sit at the right hand of the power of God. |
| [70]Then said they all, Thou art, then, the Son of Aloha? Jeshu saith to them, You say that I am. |
[70]Then said they all, art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, ye say that I am. |
| [71]They say, Why yet need we witnesses? for we have heard from his mouth. |
[71]Then said they, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard it of his own mouth. |
