Luke 22 - Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

22 And the feast of the unleavened food was coming nigh, that is called Passover,

² and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take him up, for they were afraid of the people.

³ And the Adversary entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve,

⁴ and he, having gone away, spake with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver him up to them,

⁵ and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,

⁶ and he agreed, and was seeking a favourable season to deliver him up to them without tumult.

⁷ And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,

⁸ and he sent Peter and John, saying, `Having gone on, prepare to us the passover, that we may eat;'

⁹ and they said to him, `Where wilt thou that we might prepare?'

¹⁰ And he said to them, `Lo, in your entering into the city, there shall meet you a man, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him to the house where he doth go in,

¹¹ and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where the passover with my disciples I may eat?

¹² and he shall show you a large upper room furnished, there make ready;'

¹³ and they, having gone away, found as he hath said to them, and they made ready the passover.

¹⁴ And when the hour come, he reclined (at meat), and the twelve apostles with him,

¹⁵ and he said unto them, `With desire I did desire to eat this passover with you before my suffering,

¹⁶ for I say to you, that no more may I eat of it till it may be fulfilled in the reign of God.'

¹⁷ And having taken a cup, having given thanks, he said, `Take this and divide to yourselves,

¹⁸ for I say to you that I may not drink of the produce of the vine till the reign of God may come.'

¹⁹ And having taken bread, having given thanks, he brake and gave to them, saying, `This is my body, that for you is being given, this do ye -- to remembrance of me.'

²⁰ In like manner, also, the cup after the supping, saying, `This cup [is] the new covenant in my blood, that for you is being poured forth.

²¹ `But, lo, the hand of him delivering me up [is] with me on the table,

²² and indeed the Son of Man doth go according to what hath been determined; but wo to that man through whom he is being delivered up.'

²³ And they began to reason among themselves, who then of them it may be, who is about to do this thing.

²⁴ And there happened also a strife among them -- who of them is accounted to be greater.

²⁵ And he said to them, `The kings of the nations do exercise lordship over them, and those exercising authority upon them are called benefactors;

²⁶ but ye [are] not so, but he who is greater among you -- let him be as the younger; and he who is leading, as he who is ministering;

²⁷ for who is greater? he who is reclining (at meat), or he who is ministering? is it not he who is reclining (at meat)? and I -- I am in your midst as he who is ministering.

²⁸ `And ye -- ye are those who have remained with me in my temptations,

²⁹ and I appoint to you, as my Father did appoint to me, a kingdom,

³⁰ that ye may eat and may drink at my table, in my kingdom, and may sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.'

³¹ And the Lord said, `Simon, Simon, lo, the Adversary did ask you for himself to sift as the wheat,

³² and I besought for thee, that thy faith may not fail; and thou, when thou didst turn, strengthen thy brethren.'

³³ And he said to him, `Sir, with thee I am ready both to prison and to death to go;'

³⁴ and he said, `I say to thee, Peter, a cock shall not crow to-day, before thrice thou mayest disown knowing me.'

³⁵ And he said to them, `When I sent you without bag, and scrip, and sandals, did ye lack anything?' and they said, `Nothing.'

³⁶ Then said he to them, `But, now, he who is having a bag, let him take [it] up, and in like manner also a scrip; and he who is not having, let him sell his garment, and buy a sword,

³⁷ for I say to you, that yet this that hath been written it behoveth to be fulfilled in me: And with lawless ones he was reckoned, for also the things concerning me have an end.'

³⁸ And they said, `Sir, lo, here [are] two swords;' and he said to them, `It is sufficient.'

³⁹ And having gone forth, he went on, according to custom, to the mount of the Olives, and his disciples also followed him,

⁴⁰ and having come to the place, he said to them, `Pray ye not to enter into temptation.'

⁴¹ And he was withdrawn from them, as it were a stone's cast, and having fallen on the knees he was praying,

⁴² saying, `Father, if Thou be counselling to make this cup pass from me --; but, not my will, but Thine be done.' --

⁴³ And there appeared to him a messenger from heaven strengthening him;

⁴⁴ and having been in agony, he was more earnestly praying, and his sweat became, as it were, great drops of blood falling upon the ground.

⁴⁵ And having risen up from the prayer, having come unto the disciples, he found them sleeping from the sorrow,

⁴⁶ and he said to them, `Why do ye sleep? having risen, pray that ye may not enter into temptation.'

⁴⁷ And while he is speaking, lo, a multitude, and he who is called Judas, one of the twelve, was coming before them, and he came nigh to Jesus to kiss him,

⁴⁸ and Jesus said to him, `Judas, with a kiss the Son of Man dost thou deliver up?'

⁴⁹ And those about him, having seen what was about to be, said to him, `Sir, shall we smite with a sword?'

⁵⁰ And a certain one of them smote the servant of the chief priest, and took off his right ear,

⁵¹ and Jesus answering said, `Suffer ye thus far,' and having touched his ear, he healed him.

⁵² And Jesus said to those having come upon him -- chief priests, and magistrates of the temple, and elders -- `As upon a robber have ye come forth, with swords and sticks?

⁵³ while daily I was with you in the temple, ye did stretch forth no hands against me; but this is your hour and the power of the darkness.'

⁵⁴ And having taken him, they led and brought him to the house of the chief priest. And Peter was following afar off,

⁵⁵ and they having kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and having sat down together, Peter was sitting in the midst of them,

⁵⁶ and a certain maid having seen him sitting at the light, and having earnestly looked at him, she said, `And this one was with him!'

⁵⁷ and he disowned him, saying, `Woman, I have not known him.'

⁵⁸ And after a little, another having seen him, said, `And thou art of them!' and Peter said, `Man, I am not.'

⁵⁹ And one hour, as it were, having intervened, a certain other was confidently affirming, saying, `Of a truth this one also was with him, for he is also a Galilean;'

⁶⁰ and Peter said, `Man, I have not known what thou sayest;' and presently, while he is speaking, a cock crew.

⁶¹ And the Lord having turned did look on Peter, and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him -- `Before a cock shall crow, thou mayest disown me thrice;'

⁶² and Peter having gone without, wept bitterly.

⁶³ And the men who were holding Jesus were mocking him, beating [him];

⁶⁴ and having blindfolded him, they were striking him on the face, and were questioning him, saying, `Prophesy who he is who smote thee?'

⁶⁵ and many other things, speaking evilly, they spake in regard to him.

⁶⁶ And when it became day there was gathered together the eldership of the people, chief priests also, and scribes, and they led him up to their own sanhedrim,

⁶⁷ saying, `If thou be the Christ, tell us.' And he said to them, `If I may tell you, ye will not believe;

⁶⁸ and if I also question [you], ye will not answer me or send me away;

⁶⁹ henceforth, there shall be the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of the power of God.'

⁷⁰ And they all said, `Thou, then, art the Son of God?' and he said unto them, `Ye say [it], because I am;'

⁷¹ and they said, `What need yet have we of testimony? for we ourselves did hear [it] from his mouth.'
