Matthew
| Matthew 26:41 |
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. |
| Matthew 26:42 |
Again a second time he went away, and prayed, saying, My Father, if this cannot pass away, except I drink it, thy will be done. |
| Matthew 26:43 |
And he came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. |
| Matthew 26:44 |
And he left them again, and went away, and prayed a third time, saying again the same words. |
| Matthew 26:45 |
Then cometh he to the 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. |
| Matthew 26:46 |
Arise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that betrayeth me. |
| Matthew 26:47 |
And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priest and elders of the people. |
| Matthew 26:48 |
Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he: take him. |
| Matthew 26:49 |
And straightway he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, Rabbi; and kissed him. |
| Matthew 26:50 |
And Jesus said unto him, Friend, [do] that for which thou art come. Then they came and laid hands on Jesus, and took him. |
| Matthew 26:51 |
And behold, one of them that were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his ear. |
| Matthew 26:52 |
Then saith Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into its place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. |
| Matthew 26:53 |
Or thinkest thou that I cannot beseech my Father, and he shall even now send me more than twelve legions of angels? |
| Matthew 26:54 |
How then should the scriptures be fulfilled that thus it must be? |
| Matthew 26:55 |
In that hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a robber with swords and staves to seize me? I sat daily in the temple teaching, and ye took me not. |
| Matthew 26:56 |
But all this is come to pass, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples left him, and fled. |
| Matthew 26:57 |
And they that had taken Jesus led him away to [the house of] Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were gathered together. |
| Matthew 26:58 |
But Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest, and entered in, and sat with the officers, to see the end. |
| Matthew 26:59 |
Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false witness against Jesus, that they might put him to death; |
| Matthew 26:60 |
and they found it not, though many false witnesses came. But afterward came two, |
| Matthew 26:61 |
and said, This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. |
| Matthew 26:62 |
And the high priest stood up, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? |
| Matthew 26:63 |
But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou art the Christ, the Son of God. |
| Matthew 26:64 |
Jesus said unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Henceforth ye shall see the Son of man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven. |
| Matthew 26:65 |
Then the high priest rent his garments, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy: what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard the blasphemy: |
| Matthew 26:66 |
what think ye? They answered and said, He is worthy of death. |
| Matthew 26:67 |
Then did they spit in his face and buffet him: and some smote him with the palms of their hands, |
| Matthew 26:68 |
saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ: who is he that struck thee? |
| Matthew 26:69 |
Now Peter was sitting without in the court: and a maid came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean. |
| Matthew 26:70 |
But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. |
| Matthew 26:71 |
And when he was gone out into the porch, another [maid] saw him, and saith unto them that were there, This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth. |
| Matthew 26:72 |
And again he denied with an oath, I know not the man. |
| Matthew 26:73 |
And after a little while they that stood by came and said to Peter, Of a truth thou also art [one] of them; for thy speech maketh thee known. |
| Matthew 26:74 |
Then began he to curse and to swear, I know not the man. And straightway the cock crew. |
| Matthew 26:75 |
And Peter remembered the word which Jesus had said, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly. |
| Matthew 27:1 |
Now when morning was come, all the chief priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death: |
| Matthew 27:2 |
and they bound him, and led him away, and delivered him up to Pilate the governor. |
| Matthew 27:3 |
Then Judas, who betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought back the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, |
| Matthew 27:4 |
saying, I have sinned in that I betrayed innocent blood. But they said, What is that to us? see thou [to it] . |
| Matthew 27:5 |
And he cast down the pieces of silver into the sanctuary, and departed; and he went away and hanged himself. |
| Matthew 27:6 |
And the chief priests took the pieces of silver, and said, It is not lawful to put them into the treasury, since it is the price of blood. |
| Matthew 27:7 |
And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in. |
| Matthew 27:8 |
Wherefore that field was called, the field of blood, unto this day. |
| Matthew 27:9 |
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was priced, whom [certain] of the children of Israel did price; |
| Matthew 27:10 |
and they gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me. |
| Matthew 27:11 |
Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest. |
| Matthew 27:12 |
And when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. |
| Matthew 27:13 |
Then saith Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? |
| Matthew 27:14 |
And he gave him no answer, not even to one word: insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly. |
| Matthew 27:15 |
Now at the feast the governor was wont to release unto the multitude one prisoner, whom they would. |
