Book 40 : MATTHEW - Chapter 026

026:001

Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified

026:002

Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas

026:003

And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him

026:004

But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people

026:005

Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper

026:006

There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat

026:007

But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste

026:008

For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor

026:009

When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me

026:010

For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always

026:011

For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial

026:012

Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her

026:013

Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests

026:014

And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver

026:015

And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him

026:016

Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover

026:017

And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples

026:018

And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover

026:019

Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve

026:020

And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me

026:021

And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I

026:022

And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me

026:023

The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born

026:024

Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said

026:025

And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body

026:026

And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it

026:027

For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins

026:028

But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom

026:029

And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives

026:030

Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad

026:031

But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee

026:032

Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended

026:033

Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice

026:034

Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples

026:035

Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder

026:036

And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy

026:037

Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me

026:038

And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt

026:039

And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour

026:040

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

026:041

He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done

026:042

And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy

026:043

And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words

026:044

Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners

026:045

Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me

026:046

And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people

026:047

Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast

026:048

And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him

026:049

And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus and took him.

026:050

And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear

026:051

Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword

026:052

Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels

026:053

But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be

026:054

In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me

026:055

But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled

026:056

And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled

026:057

But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end

026:058

Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death

026:059

But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses

026:060

And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days

026:061

And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee

026:062

But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God

026:063

Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven

026:064

Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy

026:065

What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death

026:066

Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands

026:067

Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee

026:068

Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee

026:069

But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest

026:070

And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth

026:071

And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man

026:072

And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee

026:073

Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew

026:074

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly
