Chapter 22
1
Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
2
And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
3
¶ Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
4
And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.
5
And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
6
And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
7
¶ Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
8
And he sent Peter and John, saying, +w Go|strong=“G4198”+w* +w and prepare|strong=“G2090”+w* +w us|strong=“G2254”+w* +w the passover|strong=“G3957”+w*, +w that|strong=“G2443”+w* +w we may eat|strong=“G5315”+w*.
9
And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?
10
And he said unto them, +w Behold|strong=“G2400”+w*, +w when ye|strong=“G5216”+w* +w are entered|strong=“G1525”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the city|strong=“G4172”+w*, +w there shall|strong=“G4876”+w* +w a man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w meet|strong=“G4876”+w* +w you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w bearing|strong=“G0941”+w* +w a pitcher|strong=“G2765”+w* +w of water|strong=“G5204”+w*; +w follow|strong=“G0190”+w* +w him|strong=“G0846”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w the house|strong=“G3614”+w* +w where|strong=“G3757”+w* +w he entereth in|strong=“G1531”+w*.
11
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w ye shall say|strong=“G2046”+w* +w unto the goodman|strong=“G3617”+w* +w of the house|strong=“G3614”+w*, +w The Master|strong=“G1320”+w* +w saith|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto thee|strong=“G4671”+w*, +w Where|strong=“G4226”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w the guestchamber|strong=“G2646”+w*, +w where|strong=“G3699”+w* +w I shall eat|strong=“G5315”+w* +w the passover|strong=“G3957”+w* +w with|strong=“G3326”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w disciples|strong=“G3101”+w*?
12
+w And he|strong=“G2548”+w* +w shall shew|strong=“G1166”+w* +w you|strong=“G5213”+w* +w a large|strong=“G3173”+w* +w upper room|strong=“G0508”+w* +w furnished|strong=“G4766”+w*: +w there|strong=“G1563”+w* +w make ready|strong=“G2090”+w*.
13
And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
14
And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
15
And he said unto them, +w With desire|strong=“G1939”+w* +w I have desired|strong=“G1937”+w* +w to eat|strong=“G5315”+w* +w this|strong=“G5124”+w* +w passover|strong=“G3957”+w* +w with|strong=“G3326”+w* +w you|strong=“G5216”+w* +w before|strong=“G4253”+w* +w I|strong=“G3165”+w* +w suffer|strong=“G3958”+w*:
16
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w I say|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w I will|strong=“G5315”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w any more|strong=“G3765”+w* +w eat|strong=“G5315”+w* +w thereof|strong=“G0846”+w*, +w until|strong=“G2193”+w* +w it be fulfilled|strong=“G4137”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w the kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w* of +w God|strong=“G2316”+w*.
17
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, +w Take|strong=“G2983”+w* +w this|strong=“G5124”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w divide|strong=“G1266”+w* +add it+add* +w among yourselves|strong=“G1438”+w*:
18
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w I say|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w I will|strong=“G4095”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w drink|strong=“G4095”+w* +w of|strong=“G0575”+w* +w the fruit|strong=“G1081”+w* +w of the vine|strong=“G0288”+w*, +w until|strong=“G2193”+w* +w the kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w* +w of God|strong=“G2316”+w* +w shall come|strong=“G2064”+w*.
19
¶ And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, +w This|strong=“G5124”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w body|strong=“G4983”+w* +w which|strong=“G3588”+w* +w is given|strong=“G1325”+w* +w for|strong=“G5228”+w* +w you|strong=“G5216”+w*: +w this|strong=“G5124”+w* +w do|strong=“G4160”+w* +w in|strong=“G1519”+w* +w remembrance|strong=“G0364”+w* +w of me|strong=“G1699”+w*.
20
Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, +w This|strong=“G5124”+w* +w cup|strong=“G4221”+w* +add is+add* +w the new|strong=“G2537”+w* +w testament|strong=“G1242”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w blood|strong=“G0129”+w*, +w which|strong=“G3588”+w* +w is shed|strong=“G1632”+w* +w for|strong=“G5228”+w* +w you|strong=“G5216”+w*.
21
¶ +w But|strong=“G4133”+w*, +w behold|strong=“G2400”+w*, +w the hand|strong=“G5495”+w* +w of him that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w betrayeth|strong=“G3860”+w* +w me|strong=“G3165”+w* +add is+add* +w with|strong=“G3326”+w* +w me|strong=“G1700”+w* +w on|strong=“G1909”+w* +w the table|strong=“G5132”+w*.
22
+w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w truly|strong=“G3303”+w* +w the Son|strong=“G5207”+w* +w of man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w goeth|strong=“G4198”+w*, +w as|strong=“G2596”+w* +w it was determined|strong=“G3724”+w*: +w but|strong=“G4133”+w* +w woe|strong=“G3759”+w* +w unto that|strong=“G1565”+w* +w man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w by|strong=“G1223”+w* +w whom|strong=“G3739”+w* +w he is betrayed|strong=“G3860”+w*!
23
And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
24
¶ And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
25
And he said unto them, +w The kings|strong=“G0935”+w* +w of the Gentiles|strong=“G1484”+w* +w exercise lordship|strong=“G2961”+w* +w over them|strong=“G0846”+w*; +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w they that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w exercise authority upon|strong=“G1850”+w* +w them|strong=“G0846”+w* +w are called|strong=“G2564”+w* +w benefactors|strong=“G2110”+w*.
26
+w But|strong=“G1161”+w* +w ye|strong=“G5210”+w* +add shall+add* +w not|strong=“G3756”+w* +add be+add* +w so|strong=“G3779”+w*: +w but|strong=“G0235”+w* +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w is greatest|strong=“G3187”+w* +w among|strong=“G1722”+w* +w you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w let him be|strong=“G1096”+w* +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w the younger|strong=“G3501”+w*; +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he that is chief|strong=“G2233”+w*, +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w doth serve|strong=“G1247”+w*.
27
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w whether|strong=“G5101”+w* +add is+add* +w greater|strong=“G3187”+w*, +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w sitteth at meat|strong=“G0345”+w*, +w or|strong=“G2228”+w* +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w serveth|strong=“G1247”+w*? +add is+add* +w not|strong=“G3780”+w* +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w sitteth at meat|strong=“G0345”+w*? +w but|strong=“G1161”+w* +w I|strong=“G1473”+w* +w am|strong=“G1510”+w* +w among|strong=“G3319”+w* +w you|strong=“G5216”+w* +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w serveth|strong=“G1247”+w*.
28
+w Ye|strong=“G5210”+w* +w are|strong=“G2075”+w* +w they which|strong=“G3588”+w* +w have continued|strong=“G1265”+w* +w with|strong=“G3326”+w* +w me|strong=“G1700”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w temptations|strong=“G3986”+w*.
29
+w And I|strong=“G2504”+w* +w appoint|strong=“G1303”+w* +w unto you|strong=“G5213”+w* +w a kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w*, +w as|strong=“G2531”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w Father|strong=“G3962”+w* +w hath appointed|strong=“G1303”+w* +w unto me|strong=“G3427”+w*;
30
+w That|strong=“G2443”+w* +w ye may eat|strong=“G2068”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w drink|strong=“G4095”+w* +w at|strong=“G1909”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w table|strong=“G5132”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w kingdom|strong=“G0932”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w sit|strong=“G2523”+w* +w on|strong=“G1909”+w* +w thrones|strong=“G2362”+w* +w judging|strong=“G2919”+w* +w the twelve|strong=“G1427”+w* +w tribes|strong=“G5443”+w* +w of Israel|strong=“G2474”+w*.
31
¶ And the Lord said, +w Simon|strong=“G4613”+w*, +w Simon|strong=“G4613”+w*, +w behold|strong=“G2400”+w*, +w Satan|strong=“G4567”+w* +w hath desired|strong=“G1809”+w* +add to have+add* +w you|strong=“G5209”+w*, +w that he may sift|strong=“G4617”+w* +add you+add* +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w wheat|strong=“G4621”+w*:
32
+w But|strong=“G1161”+w* +w I|strong=“G1473”+w* +w have prayed|strong=“G1189”+w* +w for|strong=“G4012”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4675”+w*, +w that|strong=“G2443”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w faith|strong=“G4102”+w* +w fail|strong=“G1587”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w*: +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w when|strong=“G4218”+w* +w thou|strong=“G4771”+w* +w art converted|strong=“G1994”+w*, +w strengthen|strong=“G4741”+w* +w thy|strong=“G4675”+w* +w brethren|strong=“G0080”+w*.
33
And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.
34
And he said, +w I tell|strong=“G3004”+w* +w thee|strong=“G4671”+w*, +w Peter|strong=“G4074”+w*, +w the cock|strong=“G0220”+w* +w shall|strong=“G5455”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w crow|strong=“G5455”+w* +w this day|strong=“G4594”+w*, +w before that|strong=“G4250”+w* +w thou shalt|strong=“G0533”+w* +w thrice|strong=“G5151”+w* +w deny|strong=“G0533”+w* +w that|strong=“G3361”+w* +w thou knowest|strong=“G1492”+w* +w me|strong=“G3165”+w*.
35
And he said unto them, j +w When|strong=“G3753”+w* +w I sent|strong=“G0649”+w* +w you|strong=“G5209”+w* +w without|strong=“G0817”+w* +w purse|strong=“G0905”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w scrip|strong=“G4082”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w shoes|strong=“G5266”+w*, +w lacked ye|strong=“G5302”+w* +w any|strong=“G3361”+w* +w thing|strong=“G5100”+w*? And they said, Nothing.
36
Then said he unto them, +w But|strong=“G0235”+w* +w now|strong=“G3568”+w*, +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w a purse|strong=“G0905”+w*, +w let him take|strong=“G0142”+w* +add it+add*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w likewise|strong=“G3668”+w* +add his+add* +w scrip|strong=“G4082”+w*: +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w hath|strong=“G2192”+w* +w no|strong=“G3361”+w* +w sword|strong=“G3162”+w*, +w let him sell|strong=“G4453”+w* +w his|strong=“G0846”+w* +w garment|strong=“G2440”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w buy one|strong=“G0059”+w*.
37
+w For|strong=“G1063”+w* +w I say|strong=“G3004”+w* +w unto you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w that|strong=“G3754”+w* +w this|strong=“G5124”+w* +w that|strong=“G3588”+w* +w is written|strong=“G1125”+w* +w must|strong=“G1163”+w* +w yet|strong=“G2089”+w* +w be accomplished|strong=“G5055”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w me|strong=“G1698”+w*, +w And|strong=“G2532”+w* +w he was reckoned|strong=“G3049”+w* +w among|strong=“G3326”+w* +w the transgressors|strong=“G0459”+w*: +w for|strong=“G1063”+w* +w the things|strong=“G3588”+w* +w concerning|strong=“G4012”+w* +w me|strong=“G1700”+w* +w have|strong=“G2192”+w* +w an end|strong=“G5056”+w*.
38
And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, +w It is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w enough|strong=“G2425”+w*.
39
¶ And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.
40
And when he was at the place, he said unto them, +w Pray that|strong=“G4336”+w* +w ye enter|strong=“G1525”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w temptation|strong=“G3986”+w*.
41
And he was withdrawn from them about a stone’s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,
42
Saying, +w Father|strong=“G3962”+w*, +w if|strong=“G1487”+w* +w thou be willing|strong=“G1014”+w*, +w remove|strong=“G3911”+w* +w this|strong=“G5124”+w* +w cup|strong=“G4221”+w* +w from|strong=“G0575”+w* +w me|strong=“G1700”+w*: +w nevertheless|strong=“G4133”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w my|strong=“G3450”+w* +w will|strong=“G2307”+w*, +w but|strong=“G0235”+w* +w thine|strong=“G4674”+w*, +w be done|strong=“G1096”+w*.
43
And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.
44
And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
45
And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,
46
And said unto them, +w Why|strong=“G5101”+w* +w sleep ye|strong=“G2518”+w*? +w rise|strong=“G0450”+w* +w and pray|strong=“G4336”+w*, +w lest|strong=“G2443”+w* +w ye enter|strong=“G1525”+w* +w into|strong=“G1519”+w* +w temptation|strong=“G3986”+w*.
47
¶ And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.
48
But Jesus said unto him, +w Judas|strong=“G2455”+w*, +w betrayest thou|strong=“G3860”+w* +w the Son|strong=“G5207”+w* +w of man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w with a kiss|strong=“G5370”+w*?
49
When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?
50
¶ And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.
51
And Jesus answered and said, j +w Suffer ye|strong=“G1439”+w* +w thus|strong=“G2193”+w* +w far|strong=“G5127”+w*. And he touched his ear, and healed him.
52
Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, +w Be ye come out|strong=“G1831”+w*, +w as|strong=“G5613”+w* +w against|strong=“G1909”+w* +w a thief|strong=“G3027”+w*, +w with|strong=“G3326”+w* +w swords|strong=“G3162”+w* +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w staves|strong=“G3586”+w*?
53
+w When I|strong=“G3450”+w* +w was|strong=“G5607”+w* +w daily|strong=“G2250”+w* +w with|strong=“G3326”+w* +w you|strong=“G5216”+w* +w in|strong=“G1722”+w* +w the temple|strong=“G2411”+w*, +w ye stretched forth|strong=“G1614”+w* +w no|strong=“G3756”+w* +w hands|strong=“G5495”+w* +w against|strong=“G1909”+w* +w me|strong=“G1691”+w*: +w but|strong=“G0235”+w* +w this|strong=“G3778”+w* +w is|strong=“G2076”+w* +w your|strong=“G5216”+w* +w hour|strong=“G5610”+w*, +w and|strong=“G2532”+w* +w the power|strong=“G1849”+w* +w of darkness|strong=“G4655”+w*.
54
¶ Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest’s house. And Peter followed afar off.
55
And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.
56
But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.
57
And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.
58
And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.
59
And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilæan.
60
And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.
61
And the Lord turned, 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 Peter went out, and wept bitterly.
63
¶ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.
64
And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?
65
And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.
66
¶ And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,
67
Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, +w If I|strong=“G1437”+w* +w tell|strong=“G2036”+w* +w you|strong=“G5213”+w*, +w ye will|strong=“G4100”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w believe|strong=“G4100”+w*:
68
+w And|strong=“G1161”+w* +w if|strong=“G1437”+w* +w I|strong=“G2065”+w* +w also|strong=“G2532”+w* +w ask|strong=“G2065”+w* +add you+add*, +w ye will|strong=“G0611”+w* +w not|strong=“G3361”+w* +w answer|strong=“G0611”+w* +w me|strong=“G3427”+w*, +w nor|strong=“G2228”+w* +w let|strong=“G0630”+w* +add me+add* +w go|strong=“G0630”+w*.
69
+w Hereafter|strong=“G0575”+w* +w shall|strong=“G2071”+w* +w the Son|strong=“G5207”+w* +w of man|strong=“G0444”+w* +w sit|strong=“G2521”+w* +w on|strong=“G1537”+w* +w the right hand|strong=“G1188”+w* +w of the power|strong=“G1411”+w* +w of God|strong=“G2316”+w*.
70
Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, +w Ye|strong=“G5210”+w* +w say|strong=“G3004”+w* +w that|strong=“G3754”+w* +w I|strong=“G1473”+w* +w am|strong=“G1510”+w*.
71
And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
