Noyes - Luke - 22

22:1  Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the passover, was drawing near;

22:2  and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

22:3  And Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve.

22:4  And he went away, and consulted with the chief priests and captains, how he might deliver him up to them.

22:5  And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

22:6  And he agreed with them, and sought a good opportunity to deliver him up to them in the absence of the multitude.

22:7  Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed;

22:8  and he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat it.

22:9  And they said to him, Where wilt thou that we make it ready?

22:10  And he said to them, Lo! when ye have entered the city, there will meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he goeth in;

22:11  and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

22:12  And he will show you a large upper room furnished; there make ready.

22:13  And they went and found as he had said to them; and they made ready the passover.

22:14  And when the hour had come, he placed himself at table, and the apostles with him.

22:15  And he said to them, Earnestly have I desired to eat this passover with you, before I suffer.

22:16  For I say to you, that I shall eat it no more, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

22:17  And he took a cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves.

22:18  For I say to you, that I shall not drink henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall have come.

22:19  And he took a loaf, and gave thanks, and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me.

22:20  And in like manner he took the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is about to be shed for you.

22:21  But lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

22:22  For the Son of man indeed goeth away, as it hath been determined; but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed.

22:23  And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that was about to do this.

22:24  And there arose also a contention among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

22:25  And he said to them, The kings of the nations rule as lords over them, and they who exercise authority over them are called benefactors.

22:26  But it is not to be so with you; but let the greatest among you be as the youngest; and he that is chief, as he that serveth.

22:27  For which is greater? he who reclineth at the table, or he who serveth? Is not he that reclineth at the table? But I am in the midst of you as he who serveth.

22:28  Ye however are they who have continued steadfastly with me in my trials.

22:29  And I appoint to you a kingdom, as my Father appointed to me;

22:30  that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

22:31  Simon, Simon, lo! Satan hath asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat.

22:32  But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not. And do thou, when thou hast returned to me, strengthen thy brethren.

22:33  And he said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee both to prison and to death.

22:34  And he said, I tell thee, Peter, a cock will not crow this day, till thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.

22:35  And he said to them, When I sent you without purse, or bag, or sandals, were ye in need of anything? And they said, Of nothing. Then he said to them,

22:36  But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a bag; and he that hath not, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword.

22:37  For I say to you, that this which is written must be accomplished in me: "And he was reckoned among transgressors." For that which concerneth me also hath an end.

22:38  And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said to him, It is enough!

22:39  And going out, he went, as he was wont, to the Mount of Olives; and the disciples followed him.

22:40  And when he was at the place, he said to them, Pray that ye may not enter into temptation.

22:41  And he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw; and kneeling down he prayed,

22:42  saying, Father, if thou art willing to remove this cup from me—yet not my will, but thine be done!

22:43  And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.

22:44  And being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly. And his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling to the ground.

22:45  And rising up from prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow,

22:46  and said to them, Why sleep ye? Rise, and pray that ye may not enter into temptation.

22:47  While he was yet speaking, lo! a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, was at the head of them; and he drew near to Jesus to kiss him.

22:48  But Jesus said to him, Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss?

22:49  And they who were about him, seeing what would follow, said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

22:50  And one of them smote the servant of the high-priest, and cut off his right ear.

22:51  But Jesus answering said, Permit thus far; and touched his ear, and healed him.

22:52  Then Jesus said to the chief priests and captains of the temple and elders who had come to him, Ye have come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs;

22:53  when I was daily with you in the temple, ye did not put forth your hands against me; but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

22:54  And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the high-priest. And Peter followed afar off.

22:55  And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down among them.

22:56  But a certain maid-servant saw him sitting at the fire, and steadily looking at him said, This man also was with him.

22:57  And he denied him, saying, Woman, I do not know him.

22:58  And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

22:59  And in about one hour’s time, another confidently affirmed, saying, In truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilaean.

22:60  And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crew.

22:61  And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before a cock crows this day, thou wilt thrice deny me.

22:62  And he went out, and wept bitterly.

22:63  And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and beat him;

22:64  and having blindfolded him, they asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?

22:65  And many other things did they scoffingly say against him.

22:66  And when it was day, the elders of the people, both chief priests and scribes, came together, and brought him before their council, saying,

22:67  If thou art the Christ, tell us. And he said to them, If I tell you, ye will not believe;

22:68  and if I ask, ye will not answer.

22:69  But from this time the Son of man will sit on the right hand of the power of God.

22:70  Then they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said to them, Ye say what is true; for I am.

22:71  And they said, What further need have we of testimony? For we have ourselves heard from his own mouth.
