Luke 22:1-71 LSV

[1] And the Celebration of the Unleavened [Bread] was coming near, that is called Passover, [2] and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take Him up, for they were afraid of the people. [3] And Satan entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the Twelve, [4] and he, having gone away, spoke with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver Him up to them, [5] and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money, [6] and he agreed, and was seeking a favorable season to deliver Him up to them without tumult. [7] And the day of the Unleavened [Bread] came, in which it was necessary [for] the Passover to be sacrificed, [8] and He sent Peter and John, saying, “Having gone on, prepare to us the Passover, that we may eat”; [9] and they said to Him, “Where do You will that we might prepare?” [10] And He said to them, “Behold, in your entering into the city, a man will meet you there, carrying a pitcher of water, follow him into the house where he goes in, [11] and you will say to the master of the house, The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest-chamber where I may eat the Passover with My disciples? [12] And he will show you a large upper room furnished, make ready there”; [13] and they, having gone away, found as He has said to them, and they made the Passover ready. [14] And when the hour was come, He reclined, and the twelve apostles with Him, [15] and He said to them, “With desire I desired to eat this Passover with you before My suffering, [16] for I say to you that I may eat of it no longer until it may be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.” [17] And having taken a cup, having given thanks, He said, “Take this and divide to yourselves, [18] for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine until the Kingdom of God may come.” [19] And having taken bread, having given thanks, He broke and gave to them, saying, “This is My body, that is being given for you, do this in remembrance of Me.” [20] In like manner, also, the cup after the dining, saying, “This cup [is] the New Covenant in My blood, that is being poured forth for you. [21] But behold, the hand of him delivering Me up [is] with Me on the table, [22] and, indeed, the Son of Man goes according to what has been determined; but woe to that man through whom He is being delivered up.” [23] And they began to reason among themselves who then of them it may be who is about to do this thing. [24] And there happened also a strife among them—who of them is accounted to be greater. [25] And He said to them, “The kings of the nations exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority on them are called benefactors; [26] but you [are] not so, but he who is greater among you—let him be as the younger; and he who is leading, as he who is ministering; [27] for who is greater? He who is reclining, or he who is ministering? Is it not he who is reclining? And I am in your midst as He who is ministering. [28] And you are those who have remained with Me in My temptations, [29] and I appoint to you a kingdom, as My Father appointed to Me, [30] that you may eat and may drink at My table, in My kingdom, and may sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.” [31] And the LORD said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked for himself to sift you as the wheat, [32] and I implored for you that your faith may not fail; and you, when you turned, strengthen your brothers.” [33] And he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You both to prison and to death”; [34] and He said, “I say to you, Peter, a rooster will not crow today, before you may disown knowing Me three times.” [35] And He said to them, “When I sent you without bag, and leather pouch, and sandals, did you lack anything?” And they said, “Nothing.” [36] Then He said to them, “But now, he who is having a bag, let him take [it] up, and in like manner also a leather pouch; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword, [37] for I say to you that this which has been written is necessary to be accomplished in Me: And He was reckoned with lawless ones; for also the things concerning Me have an end.” [38] And they said, “Lord, behold, here [are] two swords”; and He said to them, “It is sufficient.” [39] And having gone forth, He went on, according to custom, to the Mount of Olives, and His disciples also followed Him, [40] and having come to the place, He said to them, “Pray to not enter into temptation.” [41] And He was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone’s cast, and having fallen on the knees He was praying, [42] saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me, but not My will, but Yours be done.” [43] And there appeared to Him a messenger from Heaven strengthening Him; [44] and having been in agony, He was more earnestly praying, and His sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling on the ground. [45] And having risen up from the prayer, having come to the disciples, He found them sleeping from the sorrow, [46] and He said to them, “Why do you sleep? Having risen, pray that you may not enter into temptation.” [47] And while He is speaking, behold, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the Twelve, was coming before them, and he came near to Jesus to kiss Him, [48] and Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you deliver up the Son of Man with a kiss?” [49] And those around Him, having seen what was about to be, said to Him, “Lord, will we strike with a sword?” [50] And a certain one of them struck the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear, [51] and Jesus answering said, “Permit thus far,” and having touched his ear, He healed him. [52] And Jesus said to those having come on Him—chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders, “Have you come forth with swords and sticks as on a robber? [53] While daily I was with you in the temple, you stretched forth no hands against Me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.” [54] And having taken Him, they led and brought Him into the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following far off, [55] and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them, [56] and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, “And this one was with Him!” [57] And he disowned Him, saying, “Woman, I have not known Him.” [58] And after a while, another having seen him, said, “And you are of them!” And Peter said, “Man, I am not.” [59] And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, “Of a truth this one also was with Him, for he is also a Galilean”; [60] and Peter said, “Man, I have not known what you say”; and immediately, while he is speaking, a rooster crowed. [61] And the LORD, having turned, looked on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the LORD, how He said to him, “Before a rooster will crow, you may disown Me three times”; [62] and Peter having gone outside, wept bitterly. [63] And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking Him, beating [Him]; [64] and having blindfolded Him, they were striking Him on the face, and were questioning Him, saying, “Prophesy who he is who struck You?” [65] And many other things, slandering, they spoke in regard to Him. [66] And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led Him up to their own Sanhedrin, [67] saying, “If You are the Christ, tell us.” And He said to them, “If I may tell you, you will not believe; [68] and if I also question [you], you will not answer Me or send Me away; [69] from now on, there will be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.” [70] And they all said, “You, then, are the Son of God?” And He said to them, “You say [it], because I AM”; [71] and they said, “What need do we have yet of testimony? For we ourselves heard [it] from His mouth.”
