St Matthew 26:40-45 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

40. And he cometh to his disciples, and findeth them asleep, and he saith to Peter: What? Could you not watch one hour with me?

41. Watch ye, and pray that ye enter not into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh weak.

42. Again the second time, he went and prayed, saying: My Father, if this chalice may not pass away, but I must drink it, thy will be done.

43. And he cometh again and findeth them sleeping: for their eyes were heavy.

44. And leaving them, he went again: and he prayed the third time, saying the selfsame word.

45. Then he cometh to his disciples, and saith to them: Sleep ye now and take your rest; behold the hour is at hand, and the Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
