Luke 22:1-71 ASV14 - Bible AI

¹Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

²And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death; for they feared the people.

³And Satan entered into Judas who was surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

⁴And he went away, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him unto them.

⁵And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

⁶And he consented, and sought opportunity to deliver him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

⁷And the day of unleavened bread came on which the passover must be sacrificed.

⁸And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat.

⁹And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we make ready?

¹⁰And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whereinto he goeth.

¹¹And ye shall say unto the master of the house, The Teacher saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

¹²And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

¹³And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

¹⁴And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

¹⁵And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

¹⁶for I say unto you, I shall no more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

¹⁷And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:

¹⁸for I say unto you, I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

¹⁹And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

²⁰And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, [even] that which is poured out for you.

²¹But behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

²²For the Son of man indeed goeth, as it hath been determined: but woe unto that man through whom he is betrayed!

²³And they began to question among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

²⁴And there arose also a contention among them, which of them was accounted to be greatest.

²⁵And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles have lordship over them; and they that have authority over them are called Benefactors.

²⁶But ye [shall] not [be] so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

²⁷For which is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth.

²⁸But ye are they that have continued with me in my temptations;

²⁹and I appoint unto you a kingdom, even as my Father appointed unto me,

³⁰that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

³¹And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat:

³²but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou hast turned again, establish thy brethren.

³³And he said unto him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death.

³⁴And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt three times deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵And he said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, and wallet, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing.

³⁶And he said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet; and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

³⁷For I say unto you, that this which is written must be fulfilled in me, And he was reckoned with transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

³⁸And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

³⁹And he came out, and went, as his custom was, unto the mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴¹And he was parted from them about a stone's cast; and he kneeled down and prayed,

⁴²saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

⁴³And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

⁴⁴And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground.

⁴⁵And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,

⁴⁶and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴⁷While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

⁵⁰And a certain one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear.

⁵¹But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye [them] thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵²And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, that were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves?

⁵³When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴And they seized him, and led him [away], and brought him into the high priest's house. But Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them.

⁵⁶And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light [of the fire], and looking steadfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him.

⁵⁷But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

⁵⁸And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art [one] of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.

⁵⁹And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilean.

⁶⁰But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the rooster crew.

⁶¹And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how that he said unto him, Before the rooster crow, thou shalt deny me three times.

⁶²And he went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³And the men that held [Jesus] mocked him, and beat him.

⁶⁴And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee?

⁶⁵And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.

⁶⁶And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying,

⁶⁷If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

⁶⁸and if I ask [you], ye will not answer me, nor let [me] go.

⁶⁹But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

⁷¹And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
