Plot to Kill Jesus
1 AND the festival day of the Azymes approached, which is called Pasch:📜💬📚
2 & the chief Priests & the Scribes sought how they might kill him: but they feared the people.📜💬📚
Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
3 And Satan entered into Judas that was surnamed Iscariote, one of the Twelve.📜💬📚
4 And he went, and talked with the chief Priests and the Magistrates, how he might betray him to them.📜💬📚
5 And they were glad, and bargained to give him money.📜💬📚
6 And he promised. And he sought opportunity to betray him apart from the multitudes.📜💬📚
Preparing the Passover
7 And the day of the Azymes came, wherein it was necessary that the Pasche should be killed.📜💬📚
8 And he sent Peter and John, saying: Go and prepare us the Pasche, that we may eat.📜💬📚
9 But they said: Where wilt thou that we prepare it?📜💬📚
10 And he said to them: Behold, as you enter into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him into the house into which he entereth,📜💬📚
11 and you shall say to the good-man of the house: The Master saith to thee, where is the inn where I may eat the Pasche with my Disciples?📜💬📚
12 And he will shew you a great refectory adorned: and there prepare.📜💬📚
13 And they going, found as he said to them, and prepared the Pasche.📜💬📚
Last Supper
14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve Apostles with him.📜💬📚
15 And he said to them: With desire I have desired to eat this Pasche with you before I suffer.📜💬📚
16 For I say to you, that from this time I will not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.📜💬📚
17 And taking the chalice he gave thanks, and said: Take and divide among you.📜💬📚
18 For I say to you, that I will not drink of the generation of the vine, till the Kingdom of God do come.📜💬📚
19 And taking bread, he gave thanks, and brake; and gave to them, saying: THIS IS MY BODY WHICH IS GIVEN FOR YOU. Do this for a commemoration of me.📜💬📚
20 In like manner the chalice also, after he had supped, saying: THIS IS THE CHALICE THE NEW TESTAMENT IN MY BLOOD, WHICH SHALL BE SHED FOR YOU.📜💬📚
21 But yet behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me on the table.📜💬📚
22 And the Son of man indeed goeth according to that which is determined: but yet woe to that man by whom: he shall be betrayed.📜💬📚
23 And they began to question among them selves, which of them it should be that should do this.📜💬📚
Who Is the Greatest?
24 And there fell also a contention between them, which of them seemed to be greater.📜💬📚
25 And he said to them: The Kings of the Gentiles overrule them; and they that have power upon them, are called beneficial.📜💬📚
26 But you not so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger: & he that is the leader, as the waiter.📜💬📚
27 For which is greater, he that sitteth at the table, or he that ministereth? Is not he that sitteth? But I am in the midst of you, as he that ministereth:📜💬📚
28 & you are they that have remained with me in my tentations.📜💬📚
29 And I dispose to you, as my Father disposed to me, a Kingdom:📜💬📚
30 that you may eat & drink upon my table in my Kingdom, & may sit upon thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.📜💬📚
Jesus Predicts Peter's Denial
31 And our Lord said: Simon, Simon, behold Satan hath required to have you for to sift as wheat:📜💬📚
32 BUT I HAVE PRAYED FOR THEE, that thy faith fail not: and thou once converted, confirm thy brethren.📜💬📚
33 Who said to him: Lord, with thee I am ready to go both into prison and unto death.📜💬📚
34 And he said: I say to thee Peter, the cock shall not crow to day, till thou deny thrice that thou knowest me.📜💬📚
35 And he said to them: When I sent you without purse and scrip and shoes, did you lack any thing? But they said: Nothing.📜💬📚
36 He said therefore unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, likewise also a scrip: and he that hath not, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword.📜💬📚
37 For I say to you, that yet this that is written must be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reputed. For those things that are concerning me, have an end.📜💬📚
38 But they said: Lord, lo two swords here. But he said to them: It is enough.📜💬📚
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives
39 And going forth he went according to his custom into mount-Olivet. And his Disciples also followed him.📜💬📚
40 And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into tentation.📜💬📚
41 And he was pulled away from them a stone's cast: and kneeling he prayed,📜💬📚
42 saying: Father, if thou wilt, transfer this chalice from me. But yet not my will, but thine be done.📜💬📚
43 And there appeared to him an Angel from Heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.📜💬📚
44 And his sweat became as drops of blood trickling down upon the earth.📜💬📚
45 And when he was risen up from prayer, and was come to his Disciples, he found them sleeping for pensiveness.📜💬📚
46 And he said to them: Why sleep you? Arise, pray, lest you enter into tentation.📜💬📚
Betrayal of Jesus
47 As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude: and he that was called Judas, one of the Twelve, went before them, and approached to JESUS, for to kiss him.📜💬📚
48 And JESUS said to him: Judas with a kiss doest thou betray the Son of man?📜💬📚
49 And they that were about him, seeing what would be, said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?📜💬📚
50 And one of them smote the servant of the high Priest: and cut off his right ear.📜💬📚
51 But JESUS answering, said: Suffer ye thus far. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.📜💬📚
52 And JESUS said to them that were come unto him, the chief Priests, and magistrates of the temple, & ancients: As it were to a thief are you come forth with swords and clubs?📜💬📚
53 When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not lay hands upon me, but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.📜💬📚
Peter Denies Jesus
54 And apprehending him, they led him to the high Priest's house: but Peter followed a far off.📜💬📚
55 And a fire being kindled in the midst of the court, & they sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them.📜💬📚
56 Whom when a certain wench saw sitting at the light, and had beheld him, she said: This fellow also was with him.📜💬📚
57 But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not.📜💬📚
58 And after a while another man seeing him, said: And thou art of them. But Peter said: O man I am not.📜💬📚
59 And after the space as it were of one hour, a certain other man affirmed, saying: Verily this fellow also was with him: for he is also a Galilaean.📜💬📚
60 And Peter said: Man I know not what thou sayest. And incontinent as he was yet speaking, the cock crew.📜💬📚
61 And our Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of our Lord, as he had said: That before the cock crow, thou shalt thrice deny me.📜💬📚
62 And Peter going forth a doors, wept bitterly.📜💬📚
Soldiers Mock Jesus
63 And the men that held him, mocked him, beating him.📜💬📚
64 And they did blind-fold him, and smote his face. And they asked him saying: Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?📜💬📚
65 And blaspheming many other things they said against him.📜💬📚
Jesus before the Sanhedrin
66 And when it was day, there assembled the Ancients of the people and chief Priests and Scribes, and they brought him into their Council, saying:📜💬📚
67 If thou be Christ tell us. And he said to them: If I tell you, you will not believe me:📜💬📚
68 if also I ask, you will not answer me, nor dismiss me.📜💬📚
69 But from henceforth the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.📜💬📚
70 And they all said: Art thou then the Son of God? Who said: You say that I am.📜💬📚
71 But they said: What need we testimony any further? For our selves have heard of his own mouth.📜💬📚
