1 And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples, 2 Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified. 3 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, 4 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him. 5 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.

6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, 7 There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat. 8 But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste? 9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor. 10 When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me. 11 For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always. 12 For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. 13 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.

14 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests, 15 And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver. 16 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

17 Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? 18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. 19 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover. 20 Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. 21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. 22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I? 23 And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. 24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born. 25 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. 27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; 28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. 29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom. 30 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives. 31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. 32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee. 33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended. 34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. 35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder. 37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy. 38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me. 39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt. 40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour? 41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak. 42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done. 43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy. 44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words. 45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

47 And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people. 48 Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast. 49 And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him. 50 And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus, and took him. 51 And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest’s, and smote off his ear. 52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword. 53 Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels? 54 But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be? 55 In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me. 56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

57 And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled. 58 But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest’s palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end. 59 Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death; 60 But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses, 61 And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days. 62 And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee? 63 But Jesus held his peace. And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God. 64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven. 65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy. 66 What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death. 67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands, 68 Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?

69 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee. 70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest. 71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth. 72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man. 73 And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee. 74 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew. 75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

1 耶稣说完了这一切话， 就对门徒说：

2 "你们知道两天之后就是逾越节， 人子将要被交给人， 钉在十字架上。"

3 那时， 祭司长和民间的长老聚集在大祭司该亚法的官邸，

4 商议怎样用诡计逮捕耶稣， 把他杀害。

5 不过他们说： "不可在节期下手， 免得引起民众暴动。"

6 耶稣在伯大尼， 在患痲风的西门家里的时候，

7 有一个女人拿着一瓶珍贵的香膏， 前来把它浇在耶稣的头上。

8 门徒看见了， 就很生气， 说： "为什么这样浪费呢？

9 这香膏可以卖很多钱， 赒济穷人。"

10 耶稣知道了， 就说： "为什么难为这个女人呢？她为我作了一件美事。

11 你们常常有穷人跟你们在一起， 然而却不常有我。

12 她把这香膏浇在我身上， 是为了安葬我而作的。

13 我实在告诉你们， 这福音无论传到世界上什么地方， 这女人所作的都要传讲， 来记念她。"

14 那时， 十二门徒中的一个， 就是加略人犹大， 去见祭司长， 说：

15 "如果我把他交给你们， 你们愿意给我什么呢？"他们就给了他三十块银子。

16 从那时起， 他就找机会把耶稣交给他们。

17 除酵节的第一天， 门徒前来问耶稣： "你要我们在哪里为你预备逾越节的晚餐呢？"

18 他说： "你们到城里去见某人， 对他说， 老师说： ‘我的时候快到了； 我要到你那里和我的门徒守逾越节。’"

19 门徒照耶稣的指示去作， 预备好了逾越节的晚餐。

20 到了晚上， 耶稣和十二门徒一同吃晚餐。

21 他们吃的时候， 耶稣说： "我实在告诉你们， 你们中间有一个人要出卖我。"

22 他们就很忧愁， 一个一个地问他： "主啊， 是我吗？"

23 他回答： "那和我一同把手蘸在盘子里的人， 他要出卖我。

24 正如经上指着人子所说的， 他固然要离世， 但出卖人子的那人有祸了！ 他没有生下来倒好。"

25 那出卖耶稣的犹大说： "拉比， 是我吗？"他说： "这是你说的。"

26 他们吃的时候， 耶稣拿起饼来， 祝谢了就擘开， 递给门徒， 说： "你们拿去吃吧， 这是我的身体。"

27 耶稣又拿起杯来， 祝谢了就递给他们， 说： "你们都喝吧，

28 这是我的血， 是为立约的， 为许多人流出来， 使罪得赦。

29 我告诉你们， 从今以后我必不再喝这葡萄酒， 直到我和你们在我父的国里喝新酒的那一天。"

30 他们唱完了诗， 就出来往橄榄山去。

31 那时， 耶稣对他们说： "今天晚上， 你们因我的缘故都要后退， 因为经上记着： ‘我要击打牧人， 羊群就分散了。’

32 我复活以后， 要比你们先到加利利去。"

33 彼得对他说： "就算所有的人都因你的缘故后退， 我却永不后退。"

34 耶稣对他说： "我实在告诉你， 今天晚上鸡叫以前， 你会三次不认我。"

35 彼得对他说： "就算必须与你一同死， 我也决不会不认你。"门徒也都这样说。

36 耶稣和门徒来到一个地方， 名叫客西马尼， 就对门徒说： "你们坐在这里， 我要到那边去祷告。"

37 他带了彼得和西庇太的两个儿子一起去， 心里忧愁难过，

38 对他们说： "我的心灵痛苦得快要死了； 你们留在这里， 与我一同警醒吧。"

39 他稍往前走， 把脸俯伏在地上， 祷告说： "我的父啊！ 可能的话， 求你使这杯离开我； 但不要照我的意思， 只要照你的旨意。"

40 耶稣回到门徒那里， 看见他们都睡着了， 就对彼得说： "你们连一个小时也不能同我警醒吗？

41 应当警醒、祷告， 免得陷入试探； 你们心灵虽然愿意， 肉体却是软弱的。"

42 他又再次走开， 祷告说： "我的父啊！ 如果这杯不能离开我， 一定要我喝， 就愿你的旨意成全。"

43 他再回来的时候， 看见门徒睡着了， 因为他们十分疲倦。

44 他又离开他们， 第三次去祷告， 说的也是同样的话。

45 然后， 他回到门徒那里， 对他们说： "你们还在睡觉休息吗？看哪， 时候到了， 人子要被交在罪人的手里了。

46 起来， 我们走吧！ 出卖我的人来了。"

47 耶稣还在说话的时候， 十二门徒中的犹大， 带着一大群拿着刀棒的人来到， 他们是祭司长和民间的长老派来的。

48 出卖耶稣的人给他们一个暗号， 说： "我跟谁亲嘴， 谁就是他； 你们可以抓住他。"

49 他立刻前来对耶稣说： "拉比， 你好。"跟着就与他亲嘴。

50 耶稣对他说： "朋友， 你来要作的事， 快作吧！ "于是那些人上前来， 动手拿住耶稣， 逮捕了他。

51 有一个与耶稣在一起的人， 伸手拔出刀来， 砍了大祭司的仆人一刀， 削掉他的一只耳朵。

52 耶稣对他说： "把你的刀收回原处！ 凡动刀的必死在刀下。

53 你以为我不能求我的父， 他就马上给我派十二营以上的天使下来吗？

54 如果这样， 经上预言这事必须发生， 怎能应验呢？"

55 那时， 耶稣对众人说： "你们带着刀棒出来， 把我当作强盗捉拿吗？我天天坐在殿里教导人， 你们却没有逮捕我。

56 但这整件事的发生， 是要应验先知书上的话。"那时， 门徒都离开他逃跑了。

57 那些逮捕了耶稣的人， 把他押去见大祭司该亚法。那时经学家和长老已经聚集在那里了。

58 彼得远远地跟着耶稣， 直到大祭司的官邸。他进到里面， 和差役坐在一起， 要看事情怎样了结。

59 祭司长和公议会全体都想找假证供来控告耶稣， 好把他处死；

60 虽然有许多人前来作假证供， 却找不着证据。最后有两个人前来说：

61 "这人说过： ‘我可以拆毁 神的圣所， 三日之内又把它建造起来。’"

62 大祭司就站起来， 对耶稣说： "你为什么不回答？这些人作证， 控告你的是什么呢？"

63 耶稣却不作声。大祭司又对他说： "我指着永生的 神要你起誓， 告诉我们你是不是基督、 神的儿子。"

64 耶稣回答： "这是你说的； 但我告诉你们： 从今以后， 你们要看见人子， 坐在权能者的右边， 驾着天上的云降临。"

65 大祭司就撕开衣服， 说： "他说了亵渎的话， 我们还要什么证人呢？你们现在听见了这亵渎的话，

66 认为怎样呢？"他们回答： "他是该死的。"

67 于是他们吐唾沫在他的脸上， 用拳头打他， 也有人用掌掴他， 说：

68 "基督啊， 向我们说预言吧！ 是谁打你呢？"

69 彼得坐在外面的院子里， 有一个婢女走过来对他说： "你也是和加利利人耶稣一伙的。"

70 彼得却当众否认， 说： "我不知道你说什么。"

71 他出到门口， 又有一个婢女看见他， 就对那里的人说： "这人是和拿撒勒人耶稣一伙的。"

72 彼得再次否认， 并且发誓说： "我不认识那个人。"

73 过了一会， 站在那里的人前来对他说： "你的确是他们中间的一个， 因为一听你的口音就认出来了。"

74 彼得就发咒起誓说： "我不认识那一个人。"立刻鸡就叫了。

75 彼得想起耶稣所说的话： "鸡叫以前， 你会三次不认我"， 他就出去痛哭。
