41. Stay awake and pray that you won't be tested. You want to do what is right, but you are weak.”

42. Again Jesus went to pray and said, “My Father, if there is no other way, and I must suffer, I will still do what you want.”

43. Jesus came back and found them sleeping again. They simply could not keep their eyes open.

44. He left them and prayed the same prayer once more.

45. Finally, Jesus returned to his disciples and said, “Are you still sleeping and resting? The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinners.

46. Get up! Let's go. The one who will betray me is already here.”
