Matthew 26:34-45
English Standard Version
Chapter 26
34Jesus said to him, "Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times." 35Peter said to him, "Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!" And all the disciples said the same.
36Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go over there and pray."
37And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled.
38Then he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch with me."
39And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will."
40And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter, "So, could you not watch with me one hour?
41Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."
42Again, for the second time, he went away and prayed, "My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, your will be done."
43And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
44So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words again.
45Then he came to the disciples and said to them, "Sleep and take your rest later on. See, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
