|
22:1 |
ow ye feast of vnleuened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passeouer. |
|
22:2 |
And the chiefe Priests and Scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people. |
|
22:3 |
Then entred Satan into Iudas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelue. |
|
22:4 |
And he went his way, and communed with the chiefe Priests and captaines, how he might betray him vnto them. |
|
22:5 |
And they were glad, and couenanted to giue him money. |
|
22:6 |
And he promised, and sought opportunitie to betray him vnto them in the absence of the multitude. |
|
22:7 |
Then came the day of vnleauened bread, when the Passeouer must be killed. |
|
22:8 |
And he sent Peter and Iohn, saying, Goe and prepare vs the Passeouer, that we may eate. |
|
22:9 |
And they said vnto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare? |
|
22:10 |
And he said vnto them, Behold, when ye are entred into the citie, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him into the house where he entreth in. |
|
22:11 |
And yee shall say vnto the goodman of the house, The Master saith vnto thee, Where is the ghest-chamber where I shall eate the Passeouer with my disciples? |
|
22:12 |
And he shall shew you a large vpper roume furnished, there make ready. |
|
22:13 |
And they went, and found as hee had said vnto them, and they made readie the Passeouer. |
|
22:14 |
And when the houre was come, he sate downe, and the twelue Apostles with him. |
|
22:15 |
And he said vnto them, With desire I haue desired to eate this Passeouer with you before I suffer. |
|
22:16 |
For I say vnto you, I will not any more eate thereof, vntill it be fulfilled in the kingdome of God. |
|
22:17 |
And hee tooke the cup, and gaue thanks, and said, Take this, and diuide it among your selues. |
|
22:18 |
For I say vnto you, I will not drinke of the fruit of the Uine, vntill the kingdome of God shall come. |
|
22:19 |
And hee tooke bread, and gaue thankes, and brake it, and gaue vnto them, saying, This is my body which is giuen for you, this doe 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 beholde, the hand of him that betrayeth mee, is with mee on the table. |
|
22:22 |
And truly the Sonne of man goeth as it was determined, but woe vnto that man by whom he is betraied. |
|
22:23 |
And they began to enquire among themselues, which of them it was that should doe this thing. |
|
22:24 |
And there was also a strife among them, which of them should bee accompted the greatest. |
|
22:25 |
And hee saide vnto them, The Kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship ouer them, & they that exercise authoritie vpon them, are called benefactors. |
|
22:26 |
But ye shall not be so; but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the yonger, and he that is chiefe, as he that doeth serue. |
|
22:27 |
For whether is greater, hee that sitteth at meat, or hee that serueth? is not he that sitteth at meat? But I am among you as he that serueth. |
|
22:28 |
Ye are they which haue continued with me in my temptations. |
|
22:29 |
And I appoint vnto you a kingdome, as my Father hath appointed vnto me, |
|
22:30 |
That yee may eate and drinke at my table in my kingdome, and sit on thrones iudging the twelue Tribes of Israel. |
|
22:31 |
And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, beholde, Satan hath desired to haue you, that he may sift you as wheat: |
|
22:32 |
But I haue prayed for thee, that thy faith faile not; and when thou art conuerted, strengthen thy brethren. |
|
22:33 |
And hee said vnto him, Lord, I am ready to goe with thee both into prison, and to death. |
|
22:34 |
And hee said, I tell thee Peter, the cocke shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrise denie that thou knowest me. |
|
22:35 |
And he said vnto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shooes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. |
|
22:36 |
Then saide hee vnto them, But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and hee that hath no sword, let him sel his garment, and buy one. |
|
22:37 |
For I say vnto you, that this that is written, must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: For the things concerning me haue an end. |
|
22:38 |
And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And hee saide vnto them, It is ynough. |
|
22:39 |
And he came out, and went, as hee was wont, to the mount of Oliues, and his disciples also followed him. |
|
22:40 |
And when he was at the place, he said vnto them, Pray, that yee enter not into temptation. |
|
22:41 |
And he was withdrawen from them about a stones cast, and kneeled downe, and prayed, |
|
22:42 |
Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remooue this cup from me: neuerthelesse, not my will, but thine be done. |
|
22:43 |
And there appeared an Angel vnto him from heauen, strengthening him. |
|
22:44 |
And being in an agonie, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling downe to the ground. |
|
22:45 |
And when he rose vp from prayer, and was come to his disciples, hee found them sleeping for sorrow, |
|
22:46 |
And said vnto them, Why sleepe yee? Rise, and pray, lest yee enter into temptation. |
|
22:47 |
And while he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and hee that was called Iudas, one of the twelue, went before them, and drewe neere vnto Iesus, to kisse him. |
|
22:48 |
But Iesus said vnto him, Iudas, betrayest thou the sonne of man with a kisse? |
|
22:49 |
When they which were about him, saw what would follow, they said vnto him, Lord, shall wee smite with the sword? |
|
22:50 |
And one of them smote the seruant of the high Priest, and cut off his right eare. |
|
22:51 |
And Iesus answered, and said, Suffer ye thus farre. And he touched his eare, and healed him. |
|
22:52 |
Then Iesus said vnto the chiefe Priests, and captaines of the Temple, and the Elders which were come to him, Be ye come out as against a thiefe, with swords and staues? |
|
22:53 |
When I was daily with you in the Temple, yee stretched foorth no hands against mee: but this is your houre, and the power of darkenesse. |
|
22:54 |
Then tooke they him, and led him, and brought him into the high Priests house, and Peter followed afarre off. |
|
22:55 |
And when they had kindled a fire in the middes of the hall, and were set downe together, Peter sate downe among them. |
|
22:56 |
But a certaine maide beheld him as he sate by the fire, and earnestly looked vpon 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, & said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. |
|
22:59 |
And about the space of one houre after, another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a trueth this fellow also was with him; for he is a Galilean. |
|
22:60 |
And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately while he yet spake, the cocke crew. |
|
22:61 |
And the Lord turned, and looked vpon Peter; and Peter remembred the word of the Lord, how he had said vnto him, Before the cocke crow, thou shalt deny me thrise. |
|
22:62 |
And Peter went out, and wept bitterly. |
|
22:63 |
And the men that helde Iesus, mocked him, and smote him. |
|
22:64 |
And when they had blindfolded him, they stroke him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesie, who is it that smote thee? |
|
22:65 |
And many other things blasphemously spake they against him. |
|
22:66 |
And assoone as it was day, the Elders of the people, & the chiefe Priests and the Scribes came together, and led him into their Councell, saying, |
|
22:67 |
Art thou the Christ? Tell vs. And hee said vnto them, If I tell you, you will not beleeue. |
|
22:68 |
And if I also aske you, you will not answere me, nor let me goe. |
|
22:69 |
Hereafter shal the sonne of man sit on the right hand of the power of God. |
|
22:70 |
Then said they all, Art thou then the Sonne of God? And hee said vnto them, Ye say that I am. |
|
22:71 |
And they said, What need we any further witnesse? For wee our selues haue heard of his owne mouth. |
