nkjv Matthew:26:25-64

nkjv@Matthew:26:25 @ Then Judas, who was betraying Him, answered and said, "Rabbi, is it I?" He said to him, "You have said it."

nkjv@Matthew:26:26 @ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is My body."

nkjv@Matthew:26:27 @ Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you.

nkjv@Matthew:26:28 @ For this is My blood of the new covenant, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

nkjv@Matthew:26:29 @ But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom."

nkjv@Matthew:26:30 @ And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

nkjv@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written: "I will strike the Shepherd, And the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

nkjv@Matthew:26:32 @ But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee."

nkjv@Matthew:26:33 @ Peter answered and said to Him, "Even if all are made to stumble because of You, I will never be made to stumble."

nkjv@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said to him, "Assuredly, I say to you that this night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times."

nkjv@Matthew:26:35 @ Peter said to Him, "Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!" And so said all the disciples.

nkjv@Matthew:26:36 @ Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to the disciples, "Sit here while I go and pray over there."

nkjv@Matthew:26:37 @ And He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and He began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.

nkjv@Matthew:26:38 @ Then He said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here and watch with Me."

nkjv@Matthew:26:39 @ He went a little farther and fell on His face, and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as You will."

nkjv@Matthew:26:40 @ Then He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What! Could you not watch with Me one hour?

nkjv@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch and pray, lest you enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

nkjv@Matthew:26:42 @ Again, a second time, He went away and prayed, saying, "O My Father, if this cup cannot pass away from Me unless I drink it, Your will be done."

nkjv@Matthew:26:43 @ And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.

nkjv@Matthew:26:44 @ So He left them, went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.

nkjv@Matthew:26:45 @ Then He came to His disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners.

nkjv@Matthew:26:46 @ Rise, let us be going. See, My betrayer is at hand."

nkjv@Matthew:26:47 @ And while He was still speaking, behold, Judas, one of the twelve, with a great multitude with swords and clubs, came from the chief priests and elders of the people.

nkjv@Matthew:26:48 @ Now His betrayer had given them a sign, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the One; seize Him."

nkjv@Matthew:26:49 @ Immediately he went up to Jesus and said, "Greetings, Rabbi!" and kissed Him.

nkjv@Matthew:26:50 @ But Jesus said to him, "Friend, why have you come?" Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and took Him.

nkjv@Matthew:26:51 @ And suddenly, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

nkjv@Matthew:26:52 @ But Jesus said to him, "Put your sword in its place, for all who take the sword will perish by the sword.

nkjv@Matthew:26:53 @ Or do you think that I cannot now pray to My Father, and He will provide Me with more than twelve legions of angels?

nkjv@Matthew:26:54 @ How then could the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must happen thus?"

nkjv@Matthew:26:55 @ In that hour Jesus said to the multitudes, "Have you come out, as against a robber, with swords and clubs to take Me? I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple, and you did not seize Me.

nkjv@Matthew:26:56 @ But all this was done that the Scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples forsook Him and fled.

nkjv@Matthew:26:57 @ And those who had laid hold of Jesus led Him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

nkjv@Matthew:26:58 @ But Peter followed Him at a distance to the high priest's courtyard. And he went in and sat with the servants to see the end.

nkjv@Matthew:26:59 @ Now the chief priests, the elders, and all the council sought false testimony against Jesus to put Him to death,

nkjv@Matthew:26:60 @ but found none. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they found none. But at last two false witnesses came forward

nkjv@Matthew:26:61 @ and said, "This fellow said, "I am able to destroy the temple of God and to build it in three days."'

nkjv@Matthew:26:62 @ And the high priest arose and said to Him, "Do You answer nothing? What is it these men testify against You?"

nkjv@Matthew:26:63 @ But Jesus kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, "I put You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God!"

nkjv@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus said to him, "It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."
