Part 34

40:026:013 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.

40:026:014 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,

40:026:015 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.

40:026:016 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

40:026:017 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?

40:026:018 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.

40:026:019 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

40:026:020 Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.

40:026:021 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

40:026:022 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?

40:026:023 And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

40:026:024 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.

40:026:025 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

40:026:026 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.

40:026:027 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

40:026:028 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

40:026:029 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.

40:026:030 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

40:026:031 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.

40:026:032 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

40:026:033 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.

40:026:034 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

40:026:035 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

40:026:036 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.

40:026:037 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.

40:026:038 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.

40:026:039 And he went a little farther, 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.

40:026:040 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?
