37. When he returned he found them asleep. He said to Peter, “Simon, are you asleep? Could you not keep watch for one hour?
38. Watch and pray that you may not undergo the test. The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.”
39. Withdrawing again, he prayed, saying the same thing.
40. Then he returned once more and found them asleep, for they could not keep their eyes open and did not know what to answer him.
41. He returned a third time and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? It is enough. The hour has come. Behold, the Son of Man is to be handed over to sinners.
42. Get up, let us go. See, my betrayer is at hand.”
43. Then, while he was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived, accompanied by a crowd with swords and clubs who had come from the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders.
44. His betrayer had arranged a signal with them, saying, “The man I shall kiss is the one; arrest him and lead him away securely.”
45. He came and immediately went over to him and said, “Rabbi.” And he kissed him.
46. At this they laid hands on him and arrested him.
47. One of the bystanders drew his sword, struck the high priest’s servant, and cut off his ear.
48. Jesus said to them in reply, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs, to seize me?
49. Day after day I was with you teaching in the temple area, yet you did not arrest me; but that the scriptures may be fulfilled.”
50. And they all left him and fled.
51. Now a young man followed him wearing nothing but a linen cloth about his body. They seized him,
52. but he left the cloth behind and ran off naked.
