Mark 14:33-40 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

33. And he took Peter, and James, and John with him. And he began to be afraid and wearied.

34. And he said to them: "My soul is sorrowful, even unto death. Remain here and be vigilant."

35. And when he had proceeded on a little ways, he fell prostrate on the ground. And he prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.

36. And he said: "Abba, Father, all things are possible to you. Take this chalice from me. But let it be, not as I will, but as you will."

37. And he went and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter: "Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not able to be vigilant for one hour?

38. Watch and pray, so that you may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

39. And going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.

40. And upon returning, he found them sleeping yet again, (for their eyes were heavy) and they did not know how to respond to him.
