27 aFor who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet bI am among you as the One who serves.
30 that ayou may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, band sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
31 1And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, aSatan has asked for you, that he may bsift you as wheat.
32 But aI have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, bstrengthen your brethren.”
33 But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.”
34 aThen He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.”
Supplies for the Road
35 aAnd He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?” So they said, “Nothing.”
36 Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one.
37 For I say to you that this which is written must still be1 accomplished in Me: a‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”
38 So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”
The Prayer in the Garden
39 aComing out, bHe went to the Mount of Olives, as He was accustomed, and His disciples also followed Him.
40 aWhen He came to the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
41 aAnd He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and prayed,
42 saying, “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless anot My will, but Yours, be done.”
43 Then aan angel appeared to Him from heaven, strengthening Him.
44 aAnd being in agony, He prayed more earnestly. Then His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
