Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives
39 aAnd he came out and went, bas was his custom, to cthe Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him. 40 aAnd when he came to bthe place, he said to them, c“Pray that you may not denter into temptation.” 41 And he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and aknelt down and prayed, 42 saying, a“Father, if you are willing, remove bthis cup from me. cNevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” 43 And there appeared to him aan angel from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And abeing in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground. 45 And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow, 46 and he said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise and apray that you may not enter into temptation.”
