RNKJV - Luke - 22

22:1  Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

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

22:3  Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

22:4  And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

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

22:6  And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto 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 Kepha and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

22:9  And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?

22:10  And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.

22:11  And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

22:12  And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

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

22:14  And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

22:15  And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

22:16  For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of יהוה.

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

22:18  For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of יהוה shall come.

22:19  And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

22:20  Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

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

22:22  And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

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

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

22:25  And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise rule over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

22:26  But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

22:27  For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

22:28  Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

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

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

22:31  And He said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:

22:32  But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

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

22:34  And he said, I tell thee, Kepha, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

22:35  And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

22:36  Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

22:37  For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

22:38  And they said, Rabbi, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

22:39  And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

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

22:41  And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

22:42  Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

22:43  And there appeared an angel unto him 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 down to the ground.

22:45  And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,

22:46  And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

22:47  And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Yahushua to kiss him.

22:48  But Yahushua said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

22:49  When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Rabbi, 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  And Yahushua answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

22:52  Then Yahushua said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?

22:53  When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

22:54  Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Kepha followed afar off.

22:55  And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Kepha sat down among them.

22:56  But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

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

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

22:59  And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.

22:60  And Kepha said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

22:61  And Yahushua turned, and looked upon Kepha. And Kepha remembered the word of Yahushua, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

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

22:63  And the men that held Yahushua mocked him, and smote him.

22:64  And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

22:65  And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

22:66  And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,

22:67  Art thou the Messiah? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

22:68  And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.

22:69  Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of יהוה.

22:70  Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of the Most High? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

22:71  And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.
