Mateo 26
Bíblia Livre
1E aconteceu que, quando Jesus terminou todas estas palavras, disse aos seus discípulos:
2Vós bem sabeis que daqui a dois dias é a Páscoa, e o Filho do homem será entregue para ser crucificado.
3Então os chefes dos sacerdotes, os escribas, e os anciãos do povo se reuniram na casa do sumo sacerdote, que se chamava Caifás.
4E conversaram a fim de, usando mentira, prenderem Jesus, e o matarem.
5Porém diziam: Não na festa, para que não haja tumulto entre o povo.
6Enquanto Jesus estava em Betânia, na casa de Simão o leproso,
7veio a ele uma mulher com um vaso de alabastro, de óleo perfumado de grande valor, e derramou sobre a cabeça dele, enquanto estava sentado à mesa.
8E quando os seus discípulos viram, ficaram indignados, dizendo: Para que este desperdício?
9Pois esse óleo perfumado podia ter sido vendido por muito, e o dinheiro dado aos pobres.
10Porém Jesus, sabendo disso ,disse-lhes: Por que perturbais a esta mulher? Ora, ela me fez uma boa obra!
11Pois vós sempre tendes os pobres convosco, porém nem sempre me tereis.
12Pois ela, ao derramar este óleo perfumado sobre o meu corpo, ela o fez para preparar o meu sepultamento.
13Em verdade vos digo que, onde quer que este Evangelho em todo o mundo for pregado, também se dirá o que ela fez, para que seja lembrada.
14Então um dos doze, chamado Judas Iscariotes, foi aos chefes dos sacerdotes,
15e disse: O que quereis me dar, para que eu o entregue a vós? E eles lhe determinaram trinta moedas de prata.
16E desde então ele buscava oportunidade para o entregar.
17E no primeiro dia da festa dos pães sem fermento, os discípulos vieram a Jesus lhe perguntar: Onde queres que te preparemos para comer a Páscoa?
18E ele respondeu: Ide à cidade a um tal, e dizei-lhe: “O Mestre diz: ‘Meu tempo está perto. Contigo celebrarei a Páscoa com os meus discípulos’”.
19Os discípulos fizeram como Jesus havia lhes mandado, e prepararam a Páscoa.
20E vindo o anoitecer, ele se assentou à mesa com os doze.
21E enquanto comiam, disse: Em verdade vos digo que um de vós me trairá.
22Eles ficaram muito tristes, e cada um deles começou a lhe perguntar: Por acaso sou eu, Senhor?
23E ele respondeu: O que mete comigo a mão no prato, esse me trairá.
24De fato, o Filho do homem vai assim como dele está escrito; mas ai daquele homem por quem o Filho do homem é traído! Bom seria a tal homem se não houvesse nascido.
25E Judas, o que o traía, perguntou: Por acaso sou eu, Rabi? Jesus lhe disse: Tu o disseste.
26E enquanto comiam, Jesus tomou o pão, abençoou-o, e o partiu. Então o deu aos discípulos, e disse: Tomai, comei; isto é o meu corpo.
27Em seguida tomou o cálice, deu graças, e o deu a eles, dizendo: Bebei dele todos,
28porque este é o meu sangue, o sangue do novo testamento, o qual é derramado por muitos, para o perdão de pecados.
29E eu vos digo que desde agora não beberei deste fruto da vide, até aquele dia, quando convosco o beber, novo, no reino do meu Pai.
30E depois de cantarem um hino, saíram para o monte das Oliveiras.
31Então Jesus lhes disse: Todos vós falhareis comigo esta noite; porque está escrito: “Ferirei o pastor, e as ovelhas do rebanho serão dispersas”.
32Mas, depois que eu for ressuscitado, irei adiante de vós para a Galileia.
33Pedro, porém, respondeu-lhe: Ainda que todos falhem contigo, eu nunca falharei.
34Jesus lhe disse: Em verdade te digo que, nesta mesma noite, antes do galo cantar, tu me negarás três vezes.
35Pedro lhe respondeu: Ainda que eu tenha de morrer contigo, em nenhuma maneira te negarei. E todos os discípulos disseram o mesmo.
36Então Jesus veio com eles a um lugar chamado Getsêmani, e disse aos discípulos: Ficai sentados aqui, enquanto eu vou ali orar.
37Enquanto trazia consigo Pedro e os dois filhos de Zebedeu, ele começou a se entristecer e a se angustiar muito.
38Então lhes disse: Minha alma está completamente triste até a morte. Ficai aqui, e vigiai comigo.
39E indo um pouco mais adiante, prostrou-se sobre o seu rosto, orando, e dizendo: Meu Pai, se é possível, passe de mim este cálice; porém, não seja como eu quero, mas sim como tu queres .
40Então voltou aos seus discípulos, e os encontrou dormindo; e disse a Pedro: Então, nem sequer uma hora pudestes vigiar comigo?
41Vigiai e orai, para que não entreis em tentação. De fato, o espírito está pronto, mas a carne é fraca.
42Ele foi orar pela segunda vez, dizendo: Meu Pai, se este cálice não pode passar de mim sem que eu o beba, faça-se a tua vontade.
43Quando voltou, achou-os outra vez dormindo, pois os seus olhos estavam pesados.
44Então os deixou, e foi orar pela terceira vez, dizendo as mesmas palavras.
45Depois veio aos seus discípulos, e disse-lhes: Agora dormi e descansai. Eis que chegou a hora em que o Filho do homem é entregue em mãos de pecadores.
46Levantai-vos, vamos! Eis que chegou o que me trai.
47Enquanto ele ainda estava falando, eis que veio Judas, um dos doze, e com ele uma grande multidão, com espadas e bastões, da parte dos chefes dos sacerdotes e dos anciãos do povo.
48O seu traidor havia lhes dado sinal, dizendo: Aquele a quem eu beijar, é esse. Prendei-o.
49Logo ele se aproximou de Jesus, e disse: Felicitações, Rabi! e o beijou.
50Jesus, porém, lhe perguntou: Amigo, para que vieste? Então chegaram, agarraram Jesus, e o prenderam.
51E eis que um dos que estavam com Jesus estendeu a mão, puxou de sua espada, e feriu o servo do sumo sacerdote, cortando-lhe uma orelha.
52Jesus, então, lhe disse: Põe de volta tua espada ao seu lugar, pois todos os que pegarem espada, pela espada perecerão.
53Ou, por acaso, pensas tu que eu não posso agora orar ao meu Pai, e ele me daria mais de doze legiões de anjos?
54Como, pois, se cumpririam as Escrituras que dizem que assim tem que ser feito?
55Naquela hora Jesus disse às multidões: Como a um ladrão saístes com espadas e bastões para me prender? Todo dia eu me sentava convosco, ensinando no templo, e não me prendestes.
56Porém tudo isto aconteceu para que as Escrituras dos profetas se cumpram.Então todos os discípulos o abandonaram, e fugiram.
57Os que prenderam Jesus o trouxeram à casa de Caifás, o sumo sacerdote, onde os escribas e os anciãos estavam reunidos.
58E Pedro o seguia de longe, até o pátio do sumo sacerdote; e entrou, e se assentou com os servos, para ver o fim.
59Os chefes dos sacerdotes, os anciãos, e todo o supremo conselho buscavam falso testemunho contra Jesus, para poderem matá-lo,
60mas não encontravam. E ainda que muitas falsas testemunhas se apresentavam, contudo não encontravam.
61Mas, por fim, vieram duas falsas testemunhas, que disseram: Este disse: “Posso derrubar o Templo de Deus e reconstruí-lo em três dias”.
62Então o sumo sacerdote se levantou, e lhe perguntou: Não respondes nada ao que eles testemunham contra ti?
63Porém Jesus ficava calado. Então o sumo sacerdote lhe disse: Ordeno-te pelo Deus vivo que nos digas se tu és o Cristo, o Filho de Deus.
64Jesus lhe disse: Tu o disseste. Porém eu vos digo que, desde agora, vereis o Filho do homem, sentado à direita do Poderoso, e vindo sobre as nuvens do céu.
65Então o sumo sacerdote rasgou suas roupas, e disse: Ele blasfemou! Para que necessitamos mais de testemunhas? Eis que agora ouvistes a sua blasfêmia.
66Que vos parece?E eles responderam: Culpado de morte ele é.
67Então lhe cuspiram no rosto, e lhe deram socos.
68Outros lhe deram bofetadas, e diziam: Profetiza-nos, ó Cristo, quem é o que te feriu?
69Pedro estava sentado fora no pátio. Uma serva aproximou-se dele, e disse: Também tu estavas com Jesus, o galileu.
70Mas ele o negou diante de todos, dizendo: Não sei o que dizes.
71E quando ele saiu em direção à entrada, outra o viu, e disse aos que ali estavam : Também este estava com Jesus, o nazareno.
72E ele o negou outra vez com um juramento: Não conheço esse homem.
73Pouco depois, os que ali estavam se aproximaram, e disseram a Pedro: Verdadeiramente também tu és um deles, pois a tua fala te denuncia.
74Então ele começou a amaldiçoar e a jurar: Não conheço esse homem!E imediatamente o galo cantou.
75Então Pedro se lembrou da palavra de Jesus, que lhe dissera: Antes do galo cantar, tu me negarás três vezes. Assim ele saiu, e chorou amargamente.
Reina-Valera 1909
1Y ACONTECIÓ que, como hubo acabado Jesús todas estas palabras, dijo á sus discípulos:
2Sabéis que dentro de dos días se hace la pascua, y el Hijo del hombre es entregado para ser crucificado.
3Entonces los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y los escribas, y los ancianos del pueblo se juntaron al patio del pontífice, el cual se llamaba Caifás;
4Y tuvieron consejo para prender por engaño á Jesús, y matarle.
5Y decían: No en el día de la fiesta, porque no se haga alboroto en el pueblo.
6Y estando Jesús en Bethania, en casa de Simón el leproso,
7Vino á él una mujer, teniendo un vaso de alabastro de ungüento de gran precio, y lo derramó sobre la cabeza de él, estando sentado á la mesa.
8Lo cual viendo sus discípulos, se enojaron, diciendo: ¿Por qué se pierde esto?
9Porque esto se podía vender por gran precio, y darse á los pobres.
10Y entendiéndolo Jesús, les dijo: ¿Por qué dais pena á esta mujer? pues ha hecho conmigo buena obra.
11Porque siempre tendréis pobres con vosotros, mas á mí no siempre me tendréis.
12Porque echando este ungüento sobre mi cuerpo, para sepultarme lo ha hecho.
13De cierto os digo, que donde quiera que este evangelio fuere predicado en todo el mundo, también será dicho para memoria de ella, lo que ésta ha hecho.
14Entonces uno de los doce, que se llamaba Judas Iscariote, fué á los príncipes de los sacerdotes,
15Y les dijo: ¿Qué me queréis dar, y yo os lo entregaré? Y ellos le señalaron treinta piezas de plata.
16Y desde entonces buscaba oportunidad para entregarle.
17Y el primer día de la fiesta de los panes sin levadura, vinieron los discípulos á Jesús, diciéndole: ¿Dónde quieres que aderecemos para ti para comer la pascua?
18Y él dijo: Id á la ciudad á cierto hombre, y decidle: El Maestro dice: Mi tiempo está cerca; en tu casa haré la pascua con mis discípulos.
19Y los discípulos hicieron como Jesús les mandó, y aderezaron la pascua.
20Y como fué la tarde del día, se sentó á la mesa con los doce.
21Y comiendo ellos, dijo: De cierto os digo, que uno de vosotros me ha de entregar.
22Y entristecidos ellos en gran manera, comenzó cada uno de ellos á decirle: ¿Soy yo, Señor?
23Entonces él respondiendo, dijo: El que mete la mano conmigo en el plato, ése me ha de entregar.
24A la verdad el Hijo del hombre va, como está escrito de él; mas ¡ay de aquel hombre por quien el Hijo del hombre es entregado! bueno le fuera al tal hombre no haber nacido.
25Entonces respondiendo Judas, que le entregaba, dijo: ¿Soy yo, Maestro? Dícele: Tú lo has dicho.
26Y comiendo ellos, tomó Jesús el pan, y bendijo, y lo partió, y dió á sus discípulos, y dijo: Tomad, comed: esto es mi cuerpo.
27Y tomando el vaso, y hechas gracias, les dió, diciendo: Bebed de él todos;
28Porque esto es mi sangre del nuevo pacto, la cual es derramada por muchos para remisión de los pecados.
29Y os digo, que desde ahora no beberé más de este fruto de la vid, hasta aquel día, cuando lo tengo de beber nuevo con vosotros en el reino de mi Padre.
30Y habiendo cantado el himno, salieron al monte de las Olivas.
31Entonces Jesús les dice: Todos vosotros seréis escandalizados en mí esta noche; porque escrito está: Heriré al Pastor, y las ovejas de la manada serán dispersas.
32Mas después que haya resucitado, iré delante de vosotros á Galilea.
33Y respondiendo Pedro, le dijo: Aunque todos sean escandalizados en ti, yo nunca seré escandalizado.
34Jesús le dice: De cierto te digo que esta noche, antes que el gallo cante, me negarás tres veces.
35Dícele Pedro: Aunque me sea menester morir contigo, no te negaré. Y todos los discípulos dijeron lo mismo.
36Entonces llegó Jesús con ellos á la aldea que se llama Gethsemaní, y dice á sus discípulos: Sentaos aquí, hasta que vaya allí y ore.
37Y tomando á Pedro, y á los dos hijos de Zebedeo, comenzó á entristecerse y á angustiarse en gran manera.
38Entonces Jesús les dice: Mi alma está muy triste hasta la muerte; quedaos aquí, y velad conmigo.
39Y yéndose un poco más adelante, se postró sobre su rostro, orando, y diciendo: Padre mío, si es posible, pase de mí este vaso; empero no como yo quiero, sino como tú.
40Y vino á sus discípulos, y los halló durmiendo, y dijo á Pedro: ¿Así no habéis podido velar conmigo una hora?
41Velad y orad, para que no entréis en tentación: el espíritu á la verdad está presto, mas la carne enferma.
42Otra vez fué, segunda vez, y oró diciendo: Padre mío, si no puede este vaso pasar de mí sin que yo lo beba, hágase tu voluntad.
43Y vino, y los halló otra vez durmiendo; porque los ojos de ellos estaban agravados.
44Y dejándolos fuése de nuevo, y oró tercera vez, diciendo las mismas palabras.
45Entonces vino á sus discípulos y díceles: Dormid ya, y descansad: he aquí ha llegado la hora, y el Hijo del hombre es entregado en manos de pecadores.
46Levantaos, vamos: he aquí ha llegado el que me ha entregado.
47Y hablando aún él, he aquí Judas, uno de los doce, vino, y con él mucha gente con espadas y con palos, de parte de los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y de los ancianos del pueblo.
48Y el que le entregaba les había dado señal, diciendo: Al que yo besare, aquél es: prendedle.
49Y luego que llegó á Jesús, dijo: Salve, Maestro. Y le besó.
50Y Jesús le dijo: Amigo, ¿á qué vienes? Entonces llegaron, y echaron mano á Jesús, y le prendieron.
51Y he aquí, uno de los que estaban con Jesús, extendiendo la mano, sacó su espada, é hiriendo á un siervo del pontífice, le quitó la oreja.
52Entonces Jesús le dice: Vuelve tu espada á su lugar; porque todos los que tomaren espada, á espada perecerán.
53¿Acaso piensas que no puedo ahora orar á mi Padre, y él me daría más de doce legiones de ángeles?
54¿Cómo, pues, se cumplirían las Escrituras, que así conviene que sea hecho?
55En aquella hora dijo Jesús á las gentes: ¿Como á ladrón habéis salido con espadas y con palos á prenderme? Cada día me sentaba con vosotros enseñando en el templo, y no me prendisteis.
56Mas todo esto se hace, para que se cumplan las Escrituras de los profetas. Entonces todos los discípulos huyeron, dejándole.
57Y ellos, prendido Jesús, le llevaron á Caifás pontífice, donde los escribas y los ancianos estaban juntos.
58Mas Pedro le seguía de lejos hasta el patio del pontífice; y entrando dentro, estábase sentado con los criados, para ver el fin.
59Y los príncipes de los sacerdotes, y los ancianos, y todo el consejo, buscaban falso testimonio contra Jesús, para entregarle á la muerte;
60Y no lo hallaron, aunque muchos testigos falsos se llegaban; mas á la postre vinieron dos testigos falsos,
61Que dijeron: Este dijo: Puedo derribar el templo de Dios, y en tres días reedificarlo.
62Y levantándose el pontífice, le dijo: ¿No respondes nada? ¿qué testifican éstos contra ti?
63Mas Jesús callaba. Respondiendo el pontífice, le dijo: Te conjuro por el Dios viviente, que nos digas si eres tú el Cristo, Hijo de Dios.
64Jesús le dijo: Tú lo has dicho: y aun os digo, que desde ahora habéis de ver al Hijo del hombre sentado á la diestra de la potencia de Dios, y que viene en las nubes del cielo.
65Entonces el pontífice rasgó sus vestidos, diciendo: Blasfemado ha: ¿qué más necesidad tenemos de testigos? He aquí, ahora habéis oído su blasfemia.
66¿Qué os parece? Y respondiendo ellos, dijeron: Culpado es de muerte.
67Entonces le escupieron en el rostro, y le dieron de bofetadas; y otros le herían con mojicones,
68Diciendo: Profetízanos tú, Cristo, quién es el que te ha herido.
69Y Pedro estaba sentado fuera en el patio: y se llegó á él una criada, diciendo: Y tú con Jesús el Galileo estabas.
70Mas él negó delante de todos, diciendo: No sé lo que dices.
71Y saliendo él á la puerta, le vió otra, y dijo á los que estaban allí: También éste estaba con Jesús Nazareno.
72Y negó otra vez con juramento: No conozco al hombre.
73Y un poco después llegaron los que estaban por allí, y dijeron á Pedro: Verdaderamente también tú eres de ellos, porque aun tu habla te hace manifiesto.
74Entonces comenzó á hacer imprecaciones, y á jurar, diciendo: No conozco al hombre. Y el gallo cantó luego.
75Y se acordó Pedro de las palabras de Jesús, que le dijo: Antes que cante el gallo, me negarás tres veces. Y saliéndose fuera, lloró amargamente.
King James Version
1And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,
2Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
3Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,
4And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.
5But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.
6Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.
8But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?
9For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.
10When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.
11For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.
12For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.
13Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.
14Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,
15And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.
16And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
17Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?
18And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.
19And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.
20Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.
21And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
22And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?
23And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
24The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
25Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.
26And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
27And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
28For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
29But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.
30And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
31Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.
32But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.
33Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.
34Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.
35Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.
36Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.
37And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.
38Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.
39And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.
40And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
41Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
42He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
43And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.
44And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.
45Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.
47And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.
49And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.
50And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
51And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest’s, and smote off his ear.
52Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.
53Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?
54But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?
55In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.
56But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.
57And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.
58But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest’s palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.
59Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;
60But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,
61And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.
62And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?
63But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
64Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
65Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.
66What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.
67Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands,
68Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?
69Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.
70But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.
71And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.
72And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.
73And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.
74Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.
75And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.
World English Bible
1When Jesus had finished all these words, he said to his disciples,
2“You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”
3Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas.
4They took counsel together that they might take Jesus by deceit and kill him.
5But they said, “Not during the feast, lest a riot occur among the people.”
6Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,
7a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he sat at the table.
8But when his disciples saw this, they were indignant, saying, “Why this waste?
9For this ointment might have been sold for much and given to the poor.”
10However, knowing this, Jesus said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? She has done a good work for me.
11For you always have the poor with you, but you don’t always have me.
12For in pouring this ointment on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial.
13Most certainly I tell you, wherever this Good News is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of as a memorial of her.”
14Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests
15and said, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him to you?” So they weighed out for him thirty pieces of silver.
16From that time he sought opportunity to betray him.
17Now on the first day of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, saying to him, “Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
18He said, “Go into the city to a certain person, and tell him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.”’”
19The disciples did as Jesus commanded them, and they prepared the Passover.
20Now when evening had come, he was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples.
21As they were eating, he said, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
22They were exceedingly sorrowful, and each began to ask him, “It isn’t me, is it, Lord?”
23He answered, “He who dipped his hand with me in the dish will betray me.
24The Son of Man goes even as it is written of him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born.”
25Judas, who betrayed him, answered, “It isn’t me, is it, Rabbi?” He said to him, “You said it.”
26As they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks for it, and broke it. He gave to the disciples and said, “Take, eat; this is my body.”
27He took the cup, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, “All of you drink it,
28for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins.
29But I tell you that I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on, until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father’s Kingdom.”
30When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
31Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’
32But after I am raised up, I will go before you into Galilee.”
33But Peter answered him, “Even if all will be made to stumble because of you, I will never be made to stumble.”
34Jesus said to him, “Most certainly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.”
35Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you.” All of the disciples also said likewise.
36Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I go there and pray.”
37He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and severely troubled.
38Then Jesus said to them, “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with me.”
39He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.”
40He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “What, couldn’t you watch with me for one hour?
41Watch and pray, that you don’t enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42Again, a second time he went away and prayed, saying, “My Father, if this cup can’t pass away from me unless I drink it, your desire be done.”
43He came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44He left them again, went away, and prayed a third time, saying the same words.
45Then he came to his disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46Arise, let’s be going. Behold, he who betrays me is at hand.”
47While he was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and elders of the people.
48Now he who betrayed him had given them a sign, saying, “Whoever I kiss, he is the one. Seize him.”
49Immediately he came to Jesus, and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed him.
50Jesus said to him, “Friend, why are you here?” Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him.
51Behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.
52Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place, for all those who take the sword will die by the sword.
53Or do you think that I couldn’t ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels?
54How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must be so?”
55In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, “Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and you didn’t arrest me.
56But all this has happened that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples left him and fled.
57Those who had taken Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together.
58But Peter followed him from a distance to the court of the high priest, and entered in and sat with the officers, to see the end.
59Now the chief priests, the elders, and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus, that they might put him to death,
60and they found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward
61and said, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.’”
62The high priest stood up and said to him, “Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?”
63But Jesus stayed silent. The high priest answered him, “I adjure you by the living God that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God.”
64Jesus said to him, “You have said so. Nevertheless, I tell you, after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of the sky.”
65Then the high priest tore his clothing, saying, “He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Behold, now you have heard his blasphemy.
66What do you think?” They answered, “He is worthy of death!”
67Then they spat in his face and beat him with their fists, and some slapped him,
68saying, “Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who hit you?”
69Now Peter was sitting outside in the court, and a maid came to him, saying, “You were also with Jesus, the Galilean!”
70But he denied it before them all, saying, “I don’t know what you are talking about.”
71When he had gone out onto the porch, someone else saw him and said to those who were there, “This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
72Again he denied it with an oath, “I don’t know the man.”
73After a little while those who stood by came and said to Peter, “Surely you are also one of them, for your speech makes you known.”
74Then he began to curse and to swear, “I don’t know the man!” Immediately the rooster crowed.
75Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said to him, “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” Then he went out and wept bitterly.
