Luke:22:23-44

*
Then they began to question among themselves ,
which of them it was who would do this thing .
*
Now there was also a dispute among them ,
as to which of them should be considered the greatest .
*
And He said to them , "
The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them ,
and those who exercise authority over them are called "
benefactors .'
*
But not so among you ;
on the contrary ,
he who is greatest among you ,
let him be as the younger ,
and he who governs as he who serves .
*
For who is greater ,
he who sits at the table ,
or he who serves ?
Is it not he who sits at the table ?
Yet I am among you as the One who serves .
* "
But you are those who have continued with Me in My trials .
*
And I bestow upon you a kingdom ,
just as My Father bestowed one upon Me ,
*
that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom ,
and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel ."
*
And the Lord said , "
Simon ,
Simon !
Indeed ,
Satan has asked for you ,
that he may sift you as wheat .
*
But I have prayed for you ,
that your faith should not fail ;
and when you have returned to Me ,
strengthen your brethren ."
*
But he said to Him , "
Lord ,
I am ready to go with You ,
both to prison and to death ."
*
Then He said , "
I tell you ,
Peter ,
the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me ."
*
And He said to them , "
When I sent you without money bag ,
knapsack ,
and sandals ,
did you lack anything ?"
So they said , "
Nothing ."
*
Then He said to them , "
But now ,
he who has a money bag ,
let him take it ,
and likewise a knapsack ;
and he who has no sword ,
let him sell his garment and buy one .
*
For I say to you that this which is written must still be accomplished in Me : "
And He was numbered with the transgressors .'
For the things concerning Me have an end ."
*
So they said , "
Lord ,
look ,
here are two swords ."
And He said to them , "
It is enough ."
*
Coming out ,
He went to the Mount of Olives ,
as He was accustomed ,
and His disciples also followed Him .
*
When He came to the place ,
He said to them , "
Pray that you may not enter into temptation ."
*
And He was withdrawn from them about a stone '
s throw ,
and He knelt down and prayed ,
*
saying , "
Father ,
if it is Your will ,
take this cup away from Me ;
nevertheless not My will ,
but Yours ,
be done ."
*
Then an angel appeared to Him from heaven ,
strengthening Him .
*
And being in agony ,
He prayed more earnestly .
Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground .
