32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane; and He said to His disciples, "Sit here while I pray."
32 And they went to a country estate, by the name of Gethsemani. And he said to his disciples, “Sit here, while I pray.”
33 And He took Peter, James, and John with Him, and He began to be greatly amazed, and deeply depressed.
33 And he took with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be sorrowful and oppressed.
33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;
34 Then He said to them, "My soul is deeply grieved to the point of death. Remain here and watch."
34 And he saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful even unto death: abide ye here, and watch.
34 And he said to them: “My soul is sorrowful, even unto death. Remain here and be vigilant.”
35 And having gone forward a little, He fell on the ground, and He was praying, that if it were possible, the hour might pass from Him.
35 And when he had proceeded on a little ways, he fell prostrate on the ground. And he prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.
36 And He said, "Abba, Father, all things are possible to You. Take this cup away from Me; nevertheless, not what I will, but what You [will]."
36 And he said, Abba, Ave, O Father, my Father, you can do everything; make this cup pass away from me; but not according to my will, but yours.
37 Then He came and found them sleeping, and He said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not strong [enough] to watch one hour?
37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest thou not watch one hour?
37 And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not keep awake even for one hour?
38 Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. Indeed the spirit is eager, but the flesh is weak."
38 Awake and pray, that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing and ready, but the body is weak.
39 And He went away again and He prayed, saying the same thing.
39 And again he went away, and prayed, saying the same words.
39 And going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.
40 And having returned, He found them sleeping again, for their eyes were heavy; and they did not know what they should answer Him.
40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.
41 Then He came the third time and said to them, "Sleep on now, and take your rest. It is enough! The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.
41 And he arrived for the third time, and he said to them: “Sleep now, and take rest. It is enough. The hour has arrived. Behold, the Son of man will be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42 Rise up, let us go. See, the [one] who betrays Me is at hand."
42 Arise, let us be going: behold, he that betrayeth me is at hand.
