New Living Translation

Mark 14:39-44 New Living Translation (NLT)

39. Then Jesus left them again and prayed the same prayer as before.

40. When he returned to them again, he found them sleeping, for they couldn’t keep their eyes open. And they didn’t know what to say.

41. When he returned to them the third time, he said, “Go ahead and sleep. Have your rest. But no—the time has come. The Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42. Up, let’s be going. Look, my betrayer is here!”

43. And immediately, even as Jesus said this, Judas, one of the twelve disciples, arrived with a crowd of men armed with swords and clubs. They had been sent by the leading priests, the teachers of religious law, and the elders.

44. The traitor, Judas, had given them a prearranged signal: “You will know which one to arrest when I greet him with a kiss. Then you can take him away under guard.”
