Mark 14:32-42
Jesus Prays in Gethsemane
32 aThen they *came to a place named Gethsemane; and He *said to His disciples, “Sit here until I have prayed.” 33 And He *took with Him Peter and James and John, and began to be very adistressed and troubled. 34 And He *said to them, “aMy soul is deeply grieved to the point of death; remain here and keep watch.” 35 And He went a little beyond them, and fell to the ground and began to pray that if it were possible, athe hour might pass from Him. 36 And He was saying, “aAbba! Father! All things are possible for You; remove this cup from Me; byet not what I will, but what You will.” 37 And He *came and *found them sleeping, and *said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Could you not keep watch for one hour? 38 aKeep watching and praying that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 39 And again He went away and prayed, saying the same words. 40 And again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him. 41 And He *came the third time, and *said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough; athe hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 42 Get up, let us go; behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!”

Jesus Prays in Gethsemane
39 aAnd He came out and went bas was His custom to cthe Mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed Him. 40 aNow when He arrived at the place, He said to them, “bPray that you may not enter into temptation.” 41 And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He aknelt down and began to pray, 42 saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this acup from Me, byet not My will, but Yours be done.” 43 Now an aangel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him. 44 And abeing in agony He was praying very fervently, and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground. 45 And when He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow, 46 and said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise up and apray that you may not enter into temptation.”
