Luke 22

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

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

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

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

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

⁶ And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

⁷ Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

⁸ And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

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

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.

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?

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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.

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.

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

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

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

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

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

⁴³ And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

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.

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

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

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 Jesus to kiss him.

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

⁴⁹ When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

⁵⁰ And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹ And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus 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?

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

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.

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

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

⁶² And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.

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

⁶⁵ And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

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,

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

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

⁶⁹ Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

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

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

The Jewish Leaders Plan to Kill Jesus ^{( A )}

22 It was almost time for the Jewish Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover. ² The leading priests and teachers of the law wanted to kill Jesus. But they were trying to find a quiet way to do it, because they were afraid of what the people would do.

Judas Agrees to Help Jesus’ Enemies ^{( B )}

³ One of Jesus’ twelve apostles was named Judas Iscariot. Satan entered him, ⁴ and he went and talked with the leading priests and some of the soldiers who guarded the Temple. He talked to them about a way to hand Jesus over to them. ⁵ The priests were very happy about this. They promised to give Judas money for doing this. ⁶ He agreed. Then he waited for the best time to hand him over to them. He wanted to do it when no one was around to see it.

The Passover Meal ^{( C )}

⁷ The Day of Unleavened Bread ^{[ a ]} came. This was the day when the Jews always killed the lambs for the Passover. ⁸ Jesus said to Peter and John, “Go and prepare the Passover meal for us to eat.”

⁹ They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare the meal?”

He said to them, ¹⁰ “When you go into the city, you will see a man carrying a jar of water. Follow him. He will go into a house. ¹¹ Tell the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks that you please show us the room where he and his followers can eat the Passover meal.’ ¹² Then the owner will show you a large room upstairs that is ready for us. Prepare the meal there.”

¹³ So Peter and John left. Everything happened the way Jesus said. So they prepared the Passover meal.

The Lord’s Supper ^{( D )}

¹⁴ The time came for them to eat the Passover meal. Jesus and the apostles were together at the table. ¹⁵ Jesus said to them, “I wanted very much to eat this Passover meal with you before I die. ¹⁶ I will never eat another Passover meal until it is given its full meaning in God’s kingdom.”

¹⁷ Then Jesus took a cup of wine. He gave thanks to God for it and said, “Take this cup and give it to everyone here. ¹⁸ I will never drink wine again until God’s kingdom comes.”

¹⁹ Then he took some bread and thanked God for it. He broke off some pieces, gave them to the apostles and said, “This bread is my body that I am giving for you. Eat this to remember me.” ²⁰ In the same way, after supper, Jesus took the cup of wine and said, “This wine represents the new agreement from God to his people. It will begin when my blood is poured out for you.” ^{[ b ]}

Who Will Turn Against Jesus?

²¹ Jesus said, “But here on this table is the hand of the one who will hand me over to my enemies. ²² The Son of Man will do what God has planned. But it will be very bad for the one who hands over the Son of Man to be killed.”

²³ Then the apostles asked each other, “Which one of us would do that?”

Be Like a Servant

²⁴ Later, the apostles began to argue about which one of them was the most important. ²⁵ But Jesus said to them, “The kings of the world rule over their people, and those who have authority over others want to be called ‘the great providers for the people.’ ²⁶ But you must not be like that. The one with the most authority among you should act as if he is the least important. The one who leads should be like one who serves. ²⁷ Who is more important: the one serving or the one sitting at the table being served? Everyone thinks it’s the one being served, right? But I have been with you as the one who serves.

²⁸ “You men have stayed with me through many struggles. ²⁹ So I give you authority to rule with me in the kingdom the Father has given me. ³⁰ You will eat and drink at my table in that kingdom. You will sit on thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

Peter Will Be Tested and Fail ^{( E )}

³¹ “Satan has asked to test you men like a farmer tests his wheat. O Simon, Simon, ^{[ c ]} ³² I have prayed that you will not lose your faith! Help your brothers be stronger when you come back to me.”

³³ But Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, I am ready to go to jail with you. I will even die with you!”

³⁴ But Jesus said, “Peter, before the rooster crows tomorrow morning, you will say you don’t know me. You will say this three times.”

Be Ready for Trouble

³⁵ Then Jesus said to the apostles, “Remember when I sent you out without money, a bag, or sandals? Did you need anything?”

The apostles said, “No.”

³⁶ Jesus said to them, “But now if you have money or a bag, carry that with you. If you don’t have a sword, sell your coat and buy one. ³⁷ The Scriptures say,

‘He was considered a criminal.’ ^{( F )}

This Scripture must happen. It was written about me, and it is happening now.”

³⁸ The followers said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.”

Jesus said to them, “That’s enough.” ^{[ d ]}

Jesus Prays Alone ^{( G )}

^39-40 Jesus left the city and went to the Mount of Olives. His followers went with him. (He went there often.) He said to his followers, “Pray for strength against temptation.”

⁴¹ Then Jesus went about 50 steps away from them. He knelt down and prayed, ⁴² “Father, if you are willing, please don’t make me drink from this cup. ^{[ e ]} But do what you want, not what I want.” ⁴³ Then an angel from heaven came to help him. ⁴⁴ Jesus was full of pain; he struggled hard in prayer. Sweat dripped from his face like drops of blood falling to the ground. ^{[ f ]} ⁴⁵ When he finished praying, he went to his followers. He found them asleep, worn out from their grieving. ⁴⁶ Jesus said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Get up and pray for strength against temptation.”

Jesus Is Arrested ^{( H )}

⁴⁷ While Jesus was speaking, a crowd came up. It was led by Judas, one of the twelve apostles. He came over to Jesus to kiss him.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you using the kiss of friendship to hand over the Son of Man to his enemies?” ⁴⁹ The followers of Jesus were standing there too. They saw what was happening and said to Jesus, “Lord, should we use our swords?” ⁵⁰ And one of them did use his sword. He cut off the right ear of the servant of the high priest.

⁵¹ Jesus said, “Stop!” Then he touched the servant’s ear and healed him.

⁵² Jesus spoke to the group that came to arrest him. They were the leading priests, the older Jewish leaders, and the Jewish soldiers. He said to them, “Why did you come out here with swords and clubs? Do you think I am a criminal? ⁵³ I was with you every day in the Temple area. Why didn’t you try to arrest me there? But this is your time—the time when darkness rules.”

Peter Is Afraid to Say He Knows Jesus ^{( I )}

⁵⁴ They arrested Jesus and took him away to the house of the high priest. Peter followed Jesus but stayed back at a distance. ⁵⁵ The soldiers started a fire in the middle of the yard and sat together. Peter sat with them. ⁵⁶ A servant girl saw him sitting there. She could see because of the light from the fire. She looked closely at Peter’s face. Then she said, “This man was also with Jesus.”

⁵⁷ But Peter said this was not true. He said, “Lady, I don’t know him.” ⁵⁸ A short time later, someone else saw Peter and said, “You are also one of them.”

But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ About an hour later, another man said, “It’s true. I’m sure this man was with him, because he is from Galilee.”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!”

Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. ⁶¹ Then the Lord turned and looked into Peter’s eyes. And Peter remembered what the Lord had said, “Before the rooster crows in the morning, you will say three times that you don’t know me.” ⁶² Then Peter went outside and cried bitterly.

The Guards Treat Jesus Badly ^{( J )}

⁶³ The men guarding Jesus made fun of him and beat him. ⁶⁴ They covered his eyes so that he could not see them. Then they hit him and said, “Be a prophet ^{[ g ]} and tell us who hit you!” ⁶⁵ And they shouted all kinds of insults at him.

Jesus Before the Jewish Leaders ^{( K )}

⁶⁶ The next morning, the older leaders of the people, the leading priests, and the teachers of the law came together. They led Jesus away to their high council. ⁶⁷ They said, “If you are the Messiah, then tell us that you are.”

Jesus said to them, “If I tell you I am the Messiah, you will not believe me. ⁶⁸ And if I ask you, you will not answer. ⁶⁹ But beginning now, the Son of Man will sit at the right side of God All-Powerful.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Then are you the Son of God?” Jesus said to them, “You are right in saying that I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need witnesses now? We all heard what he said!”

22 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. ² And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death; for they feared the people.

³ And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. ⁴ And he went away, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might ^{[ a ]} deliver him unto them. ⁵ And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money. ⁶ And he consented, and sought opportunity to ^{[ b ]} deliver him unto them ^{[ c ]} in the absence of the multitude.

⁷ And the day of unleavened bread came, on which the passover must be sacrificed. ⁸ And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and make ready for us the passover, that we may eat. ⁹ And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we make ready? ¹⁰ And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house whereinto he goeth. ¹¹ And ye shall say unto the master of the house, The Teacher saith unto thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples? ¹² And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there make ready. ¹³ And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

¹⁴ And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the apostles with him. ¹⁵ And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: ¹⁶ for I say unto you, I shall not eat it, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God. ¹⁷ And he received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves: ¹⁸ for I say unto you, I shall not drink from henceforth of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come. ¹⁹ And he took ^{[ d ]} bread, and when he had given thanks, he brake it, and gave to them, saying, This is my body ^{[ e ]} which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. ²⁰ And the cup in like manner after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, even that which is poured out for you. ²¹ But behold, the hand of him that ^{[ f ]} betrayeth me is with me on the table. ²² For the Son of man indeed goeth, as it hath been determined: but woe unto that man through whom he is ^{[ g ]} betrayed! ²³ And they began to question among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

²⁴ And there arose also a contention among them, which of them was accounted to be ^{[ h ]} greatest. ²⁵ And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles have lordship over them; and they that have authority over them are called Benefactors. ²⁶ But ye shall not be so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. ²⁷ For which is greater, he that ^{[ i ]} sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that ^{[ j ]} sitteth at meat? but I am in the midst of you as he that serveth. ²⁸ But ye are they that have continued with me in my temptations; ²⁹ and ^{[ k ]} I appoint unto you a kingdom, even as my Father appointed unto me, ³⁰ that ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom; and ye shall sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

³¹ Simon, Simon, behold, Satan ^{[ l ]} asked to have you, that he might sift you as wheat: ³² but I made supplication for thee, that thy faith fail not; and do thou, when once thou hast turned again, establish thy brethren. ³³ And he said unto him, Lord, with thee I am ready to go both to prison and to death. ³⁴ And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, until thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

³⁵ And he said unto them, When I sent you forth without purse, and wallet, and shoes, lacked ye anything? And they said, Nothing. ³⁶ And he said unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet; ^{[ m ]} and he that hath none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword. ³⁷ For I say unto you, that this which is written must be fulfilled in me, ^{[ n ]} And he was reckoned with transgressors: for that which concerneth me hath ^{[ o ]} fulfilment. ³⁸ And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

³⁹ And he came out, and went, as his custom was, unto the mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed him. ⁴⁰ And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. ⁴¹ And he was parted from them about a stone’s cast; and he kneeled down and prayed, ⁴² saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. ⁴³ ^{[ p ]} And there appeared unto him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. ⁴⁴ And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became as it were great drops of blood falling down upon the ground. ⁴⁵ And when he rose up from his prayer, he came unto the disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow, ⁴⁶ and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, that ye enter not into temptation.

⁴⁷ While he yet spake, behold, a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them; and he drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. ⁴⁸ But Jesus said unto him, Judas, ^{[ q ]} betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss? ⁴⁹ And when they that were about him saw what would follow, they said, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? ⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the ^{[ r ]} servant of the high priest, and struck off his right ear. ⁵¹ But Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye them thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him. ⁵² And Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and elders, that were come against him, Are ye come out, as against a robber, with swords and staves? ⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched not forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ And they seized him, and led him away , and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed afar off. ⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat in the midst of them. ⁵⁶ And a certain maid seeing him as he sat in the light of the fire , and looking stedfastly upon him, said, This man also was with him. ⁵⁷ But he denied, saying, Woman, I know him not. ⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not. ⁵⁹ And after the space of about one hour another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this man also was with him; for he is a Galilaean. ⁶⁰ But Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest.

⁶³ And the men that held ^{[ s ]} Jesus mocked him, and beat him. ⁶⁴ And they blindfolded him, and asked him, saying, Prophesy: who is he that struck thee? ⁶⁵ And many other things spake they against him, reviling him.

⁶⁶ And as soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes; and they led him away into their council, saying, ⁶⁷ If thou art the Christ, tell us. But he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe: ⁶⁸ and if I ask you , ye will not answer. ⁶⁹ But from henceforth shall the Son of man be seated at the right hand of the power of God. ⁷⁰ And they all said, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, ^{[ t ]} Ye say that I am. ⁷¹ And they said, What further need have we of witness? for we ourselves have heard from his own mouth.

22 Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching. ² The chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put him to death, for they feared the people. ³ Satan entered into Judas, who was also called Iscariot, who was counted with the twelve. ⁴ He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them. ⁵ They were glad, and agreed to give him money. ⁶ He consented, and sought an opportunity to deliver him to them in the absence of the multitude. ⁷ The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed. ⁸ Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat.”

⁹ They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare?”

¹⁰ He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered into the city, a man carrying a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house which he enters. ¹¹ Tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’ ¹² He will show you a large, furnished upper room. Make preparations there.”

¹³ They went, found things as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover. ¹⁴ When the hour had come, he sat down with the twelve apostles. ¹⁵ He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer, ¹⁶ for I tell you, I will no longer by any means eat of it until it is fulfilled in God’s Kingdom.” ¹⁷ He received a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this, and share it among yourselves, ¹⁸ for I tell you, I will not drink at all again from the fruit of the vine, until God’s Kingdom comes.”

¹⁹ He took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke, and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in memory of me.” ²⁰ Likewise, he took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you. ²¹ But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. ²² The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”

²³ They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing. ²⁴ A dispute also arose among them, which of them was considered to be greatest. ²⁵ He said to them, “The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ ²⁶ But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves. ²⁷ For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn’t it he who sits at the table? But I am among you as one who serves. ²⁸ But you are those who have continued with me in my trials. ²⁹ I confer on you a kingdom, even as my Father conferred on me, ³⁰ that you may eat and drink at my table in my Kingdom. You will sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

³¹ The Lord said, “Simon, Simon, behold, Satan asked to have all of you, that he might sift you as wheat, ³² but I prayed for you, that your faith wouldn’t fail. You, when once you have turned again, establish your brothers.” ^{[ a ]}

³³ He said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”

³⁴ He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will by no means crow today until you deny that you know me three times.”

³⁵ He said to them, “When I sent you out without purse, wallet, and sandals, did you lack anything?”

They said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then he said to them, “But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword. ³⁷ For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: ‘He was counted with transgressors.’ Isaiah 53:12 For that which concerns me has an end.”

³⁸ They said, “Lord, behold, here are two swords.”

He said to them, “That is enough.”

³⁹ He came out and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him. ⁴⁰ When he was at the place, he said to them, “Pray that you don’t enter into temptation.”

⁴¹ He was withdrawn from them about a stone’s throw, and he knelt down and prayed, ⁴² saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”

⁴³ An angel from heaven appeared to him, strengthening him. ⁴⁴ Being in agony he prayed more earnestly. His sweat became like great drops of blood falling down on the ground.

⁴⁵ When he rose up from his prayer, he came to the disciples, and found them sleeping because of grief, ⁴⁶ and said to them, “Why do you sleep? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

⁴⁷ While he was still speaking, a crowd appeared. He who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He came near to Jesus to kiss him. ⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, do you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?”

⁴⁹ When those who were around him saw what was about to happen, they said to him, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?” ⁵⁰ A certain one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹ But Jesus answered, “Let me at least do this” —and he touched his ear, and healed him. ⁵² Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? ⁵³ When I was with you in the temple daily, you didn’t stretch out your hands against me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”

⁵⁴ They seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the high priest’s house. But Peter followed from a distance. ⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard, and had sat down together, Peter sat among them. ⁵⁶ A certain servant girl saw him as he sat in the light, and looking intently at him, said, “This man also was with him.”

⁵⁷ He denied Jesus, saying, “Woman, I don’t know him.”

⁵⁸ After a little while someone else saw him, and said, “You also are one of them!”

But Peter answered, “Man, I am not!”

⁵⁹ After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, “Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!”

⁶⁰ But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you are talking about!” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed. ⁶¹ The Lord turned and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord’s word, how he said to him, “Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times.” ⁶² He went out, and wept bitterly.

⁶³ The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him. ⁶⁴ Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, “Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?” ⁶⁵ They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

⁶⁶ As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people were gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying, ⁶⁷ “If you are the Christ, tell us.”

But he said to them, “If I tell you, you won’t believe, ⁶⁸ and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go. ⁶⁹ From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”

⁷⁰ They all said, “Are you then the Son of God?”

He said to them, “You say it, because I am.”

⁷¹ They said, “Why do we need any more witness? For we ourselves have heard from his own mouth!”

22:32 The word for “brothers” here may be also correctly translated “brothers and sisters” or “siblings.”

22 And the feast of the unleavened food was coming nigh, that is called Passover,

² and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take him up, for they were afraid of the people.

³ And the Adversary entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve,

⁴ and he, having gone away, spake with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver him up to them,

⁵ and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,

⁶ and he agreed, and was seeking a favourable season to deliver him up to them without tumult.

⁷ And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,

⁸ and he sent Peter and John, saying, `Having gone on, prepare to us the passover, that we may eat;'

⁹ and they said to him, `Where wilt thou that we might prepare?'

¹⁰ And he said to them, `Lo, in your entering into the city, there shall meet you a man, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him to the house where he doth go in,

¹¹ and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where the passover with my disciples I may eat?

¹² and he shall show you a large upper room furnished, there make ready;'

¹³ and they, having gone away, found as he hath said to them, and they made ready the passover.

¹⁴ And when the hour come, he reclined (at meat), and the twelve apostles with him,

¹⁵ and he said unto them, `With desire I did desire to eat this passover with you before my suffering,

¹⁶ for I say to you, that no more may I eat of it till it may be fulfilled in the reign of God.'

¹⁷ And having taken a cup, having given thanks, he said, `Take this and divide to yourselves,

¹⁸ for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine till the reign of God may come.'

¹⁹ And having taken bread, having given thanks, he brake and gave to them, saying, `This is my body, that for you is being given, this do ye -- to remembrance of me.'

²⁰ In like manner, also, the cup after the supping, saying, `This cup [is] the new covenant in my blood, that for you is being poured forth.

²¹ `But, lo, the hand of him delivering me up [is] with me on the table,

²² and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but wo to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'

²³ And they began to reason among themselves, who then of them it may be, who is about to do this thing.

²⁴ And there happened also a strife among them -- who of them is accounted to be greater.

²⁵ And he said to them, `The kings of the nations do exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority upon them are called benefactors;

²⁶ but ye [are] not so, but he who is greater among you -- let him be as the younger; and he who is leading, as he who is ministering;

²⁷ for who is greater? he who is reclining (at meat), or he who is ministering? is it not he who is reclining (at meat)? and I -- I am in your midst as he who is ministering.

²⁸ `And ye -- ye are those who have remained with me in my temptations,

²⁹ and I appoint to you, as my Father did appoint to me, a kingdom,

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

³¹ And the Lord said, `Simon, Simon, lo, the Adversary did ask you for himself to sift as the wheat,

³² and I besought for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and thou, when thou didst turn, strengthen thy brethren.'

³³ And he said to him, `Sir, with thee I am ready both to prison and to death to go;'

³⁴ and he said, `I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'

³⁵ And he said to them, `When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and sandals, did ye lack anything?' and they said, `Nothing.'

³⁶ Then said he to them, `But, now, he who is having a bag, let him take [it] up, and in like manner also a scrip; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,

³⁷ for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'

³⁸ And they said, `Sir, lo, here [are] two swords;' and he said to them, `It is sufficient.'

³⁹ And having gone forth, he went on, according to custom, to the mount of the Olives, and his disciples also followed him,

⁴⁰ and having come to the place, he said to them, `Pray ye not to enter into temptation.'

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone's cast, and having fallen on the knees he was praying,

⁴² saying, `Father, if Thou be counselling to make this cup pass from me --; but, not my will, but Thine be done.' --

⁴³ And there appeared to him a messenger from heaven strengthening him;

⁴⁴ and having been in agony, he was more earnestly praying, and his sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling upon the ground.

⁴⁵ And having risen up from the prayer, having come unto the disciples, he found them sleeping from the sorrow,

⁴⁶ and he said to them, `Why do ye sleep? having risen, pray that ye may not enter into temptation.'

⁴⁷ And while he is speaking, lo, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them, and he came nigh to Jesus to kiss him,

⁴⁸ and Jesus said to him, `Judas, with a kiss the Son of Man dost thou deliver up?'

⁴⁹ And those about him, having seen what was about to be, said to him, `Sir, shall we smite with a sword?'

⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,

⁵¹ and Jesus answering said, `Suffer ye thus far,' and having touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said to those having come upon him -- chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders -- `As upon a robber have ye come forth, with swords and sticks?

⁵³ while daily I was with you in the temple, ye did stretch forth no hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.'

⁵⁴ And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,

⁵⁵ and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,

⁵⁶ and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, `And this one was with him!'

⁵⁷ and he disowned him, saying, `Woman, I have not known him.'

⁵⁸ And after a little, another having seen him, said, `And thou art of them!' and Peter said, `Man, I am not.'

⁵⁹ And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, `Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'

⁶⁰ and Peter said, `Man, I have not known what thou sayest;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him -- `Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;'

⁶² and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking him, beating [him];

⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him, they were striking him on the face, and were questioning him, saying, `Prophesy who he is who smote thee?'

⁶⁵ and many other things, speaking evilly, they spake in regard to him.

⁶⁶ And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led him up to their own sanhedrim,

⁶⁷ saying, `If thou be the Christ, tell us.' And he said to them, `If I may tell you, ye will not believe;

⁶⁸ and if I also question [you], ye will not answer me or send me away;

⁶⁹ henceforth, there shall be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.'

⁷⁰ And they all said, `Thou, then, art the Son of God?' and he said unto them, `Ye say [it], because I am;'

⁷¹ and they said, `What need yet have we of testimony? for we ourselves did hear [it] from his mouth.'

22 Now the feast of unleavened bread, which is called the pasch, was at hand.

² And the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might put Jesus to death: but they feared the people.

³ And Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, one of the twelve.

⁴ And he went, and discoursed with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might betray him to them.

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

⁶ And he promised. And he sought opportunity to betray him in the absence of the multitude.

⁷ And the day of the unleavened bread came, on which it was necessary that the pasch should be killed.

⁸ And he sent Peter and John, saying: Go, and prepare for us the pasch, that we may eat.

⁹ But they said: Where wilt thou that we prepare?

¹⁰ And he said to them: Behold, as you go into the city, there shall meet you a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him into the house where he entereth in.

¹¹ And you shall say to the goodman of the house: The master saith to thee, Where is the guest chamber, where I may eat the pasch with my disciples?

¹² And he will shew you a large dining room, furnished; and there prepare.

¹³ And they going, found as he had said to them, and made ready the pasch.

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

¹⁵ And he said to them: With desire I have desired to eat this pasch with you, before I suffer.

¹⁶ For I say to you, that from this time I will not eat it, till it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

¹⁷ And having taken the chalice, he gave thanks, and said: Take, and divide it among you:

¹⁸ For I say to you, that I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, till the kingdom of God come.

¹⁹ And taking bread, he gave thanks, and brake; and gave to them, saying: This is my body, which is given for you. Do this for a commemoration of me.

²⁰ In like manner the chalice also, after he had supped, saying: This is the chalice, the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you.

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

²² And the Son of man indeed goeth, according to that which is determined: but yet, woe to that man by whom he shall be betrayed.

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

²⁴ And there was also a strife amongst them, which of them should seem to be the greater.

²⁵ And he said to them: The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and they that have power over them, are called beneficent.

²⁶ But you not so: but he that is the greater among you, let him become as the younger; and he that is the leader, as he that serveth.

²⁷ For which is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serveth? Is it not he that sitteth at table? But I am in the midst of you, as he that serveth:

²⁸ And you are they who have continued with me in my temptations:

²⁹ And I dispose to you, as my Father hath disposed to me, a kingdom;

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

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

³² But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and thou, being once converted, confirm thy brethren.

³³ Who said to him: Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.

³⁴ And he said: I say to thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, till thou thrice deniest that thou knowest me. And he said to them:

³⁵ When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, did you want anything?

³⁶ But they said: Nothing. Then said he unto them: But now he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise a scrip; and he that hath not, let him sell his coat, and buy a sword.

³⁷ For I say to you, that this that is written must yet be fulfilled in me: And with the wicked was he reckoned. For the things concerning me have an end.

³⁸ But they said: Lord, behold here are two swords. And he said to them, It is enough.

³⁹ And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him.

⁴⁰ And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,

⁴² Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.

⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.

⁴⁴ And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground.

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

⁴⁶ And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation.

⁴⁷ As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near to Jesus, for to kiss him.

⁴⁸ And Jesus said to him: Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ And they that were about him, seeing what would follow, said to him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?

⁵⁰ And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

⁵¹ But Jesus answering, said: Suffer ye thus far. And when he had touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said to the chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and the ancients, that were come unto him: Are ye come out, as it were against a thief, with swords and clubs?

⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth your hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ And apprehending him, they led him to the high priest's house. But Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them.

⁵⁶ Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light, and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him.

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

⁵⁸ And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not.

⁵⁹ And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him; for he is also a Galilean.

⁶⁰ And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

⁶² And Peter going out, wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that held him, mocked him, and struck him.

⁶⁴ And they blindfolded him, and smote his face. And they asked him, saying: Prophesy, who is it that struck thee?

⁶⁵ And blaspheming, many other things they said against him.

⁶⁶ And as soon as it was day, the ancients of the people, and the chief priests and scribes, came together; and they brought him into their council, saying: If thou be the Christ, tell us.

⁶⁷ And he saith to them: If I shall tell you, you will not believe me.

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

⁶⁹ But hereafter the Son of man shall be sitting on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then said they all: Art thou then the Son of God? Who said: You say that I am.

⁷¹ And they said: What need we any further testimony? for we ourselves have heard it from his own mouth.

Christ is betrayed. They eat the Passover lamb. The institution of the sacrament. They dispute who should be greatest; he reproves them. He prays three times upon the mount. They seize him and bring him to the high priest’s house. Peter denies him three times, and they bring Jesus before the council.

22 The feast of sweet bread drew near, which is called the Passover. ² And the high priests and scribes were seeking how to kill Jesus, but they feared the people. ³ Then Satan entered into Judas, whose surname was Iscariot (who was of the number of the twelve), ⁴ and he went his way and communed with the high priests and officers, how he might betray Jesus to them. ⁵ And they were glad, and promised to give him money. ⁶ And he accepted, and sought an opportunity to betray Jesus to them when the people were away.

⁷ Then came the day of sweet bread, when of necessity the Passover lamb must be offered. ⁸ And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare for us the Passover lamb so that we may eat. ⁹ They said to him, Where would you like us to prepare it? ¹⁰ And he said to them, When you have entered into the city, there a man bearing a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the same house that he enters in, ¹¹ and say to the head of the house, The Master says to you, where is the guest chamber, where I may eat my Passover lamb with my disciples? ¹² And he will show you a large upper room furnished. There make ready.

¹³ And they went and found things as he had said to them, and made ready the Passover lamb.

¹⁴ And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. ¹⁵ And he said to them, I have inwardly desired to eat this Passover lamb with you before I suffer. ¹⁶ For I say to you, henceforth I will not eat of it any more until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God. ¹⁷ And he took the cup and gave thanks and said, Take this, and divide it among you. ¹⁸ For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God has come.

¹⁹ And he took bread, gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, This is my body, which is given for you. This do in the remembrance of me. ²⁰ Likewise also, when they had supped, he took the cup, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which shall be shed for you. ²¹ Yet behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table. ²² And the Son of man goes as it is appointed; but woe be to that man by whom he is betrayed.

²³ And they began to enquire among themselves which of them it could be that would do that.

²⁴ And there was a dispute among them, which of them should be taken for the greatest. ²⁵ And he said to them, The kings of the Gentiles reign over them, and those who bear rule over them are called gracious lords. ²⁶ But you shall not be like this. Rather, he who is greatest among you shall be as the youngest, and he who is chief shall be as the servant. ²⁷ For who is greater: he who sits at food, or he that serves? Is it not he who sits at food? But I am among you as he that serves. ²⁸ And you are those who have stayed with me in my trials. ²⁹ And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father has appointed to me, ³⁰ so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit upon seats, and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

³¹ And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold: Satan has desired you all, to sift you like wheat. ³² But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith should not fail. And when you have turned back again, strengthen your brethren. ³³ And Peter said to him, Lord, I am ready to go with you into prison, and to death. ³⁴ And he said, I tell you, Peter, the cock will not crow this day till you have three times denied that you knew me.

³⁵ And he said to them, When I sent you out without wallet or bag or shoes, did you lack anything? And they said, No. ³⁶ And he said to them, But now, let him who has a wallet take it up, and likewise his bag. And he who has no sword, let him sell his coat and buy one. ³⁷ For I say to you that that which is written must yet be performed in me: Even with the wicked was he numbered. For those things which are written of me have their fulfilment.

³⁸ And they said, Lord, see, here are two swords.

And he said to them, It is enough.

³⁹ And he came out and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives. And the disciples followed him. ⁴⁰ And when he came to the place, he said to them, Pray, lest you fall into temptation. ⁴¹ And he went apart by himself, about a stone’s throw from them, and kneeled down and prayed, saying, ⁴² Father, if you will, withdraw this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours be fulfilled.

⁴³ And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, comforting him. ⁴⁴ And he was in an agony, and prayed somewhat longer. And his sweat was like drops of blood trickling down to the ground.

⁴⁵ And he rose up from prayer and came to his disciples, and found them sleeping for sorrow, ⁴⁶ and said to them, Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, lest you fall into temptation.

⁴⁷ While he was yet speaking, behold, there came a band of men, and he who was called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. And he pressed near to Jesus to kiss him. ⁴⁸ And Jesus said to him, Judas, do you betray the Son of man with a kiss?

⁴⁹ When those who were with Jesus saw what would follow, they said to him, Lord, shall we smite with swords? ⁵⁰ And one of them struck a servant of the most high priest, and cut off his right ear. ⁵¹ But Jesus answered and said, Let it come to this. And he touched the servant’s ear and healed him.

⁵² Then Jesus said to the high priests and officers of the temple, and the elders who had approached him, Have you come out as if to a thief, with swords and clubs? ⁵³ When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch forth hands against me. But this is even your very hour, and the power of darkness.

⁵⁴ Then they took him and led him, and brought him to the home of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off.

⁵⁵ When they had kindled a fire in the centre courtyard of the palace and were sitting together, Peter also sat down among them. ⁵⁶ And one of the servant girls saw him as he sat by the fire, and took a good look at him and said, This man was also with him. ⁵⁷ Then he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. ⁵⁸ And after a little while another saw him and said, You are also one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not. ⁵⁹ And about the space of an hour afterwards, another affirmed, saying, Surely this fellow was with him, for he is from Galilee. ⁶⁰ And Peter said, Man, I don’t know what you are talking about.

And immediately, while he yet spoke, the cock crew. ⁶¹ And the Lord turned back and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the words of the Lord, how he said to him, Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times. ⁶² And Peter went out and wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men that stood about Jesus mocked him and beat him, ⁶⁴ and blindfolded him, and struck his face. And they asked him, saying, Prophesy! Who it is that hit you? ⁶⁵ And they said many other things despitefully against him.

⁶⁶ And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the high priests and scribes came together, and they led him into their council, saying, ⁶⁷ Are you the very Christ? Tell us.

And he said to them, If I tell you, you will not believe. ⁶⁸ And also if I ask you, you will not answer me or let me go. ⁶⁹ Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

⁷⁰ Then they all said, Are you then the Son of God?

He said to them, As you say, I am.

⁷¹ Then they said, Why do we need any further testimony? We ourselves have heard from his own mouth.
