22:41. And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast. And kneeling
down, he prayed.
22:42. Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but
yet not my will, but thine be done.
22:43. And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening
him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.
22:44. And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the
ground.
22:45. And when he rose up from prayer and was come to the disciples, he
found them sleeping for sorrow.
22:46. And he said to them: Why sleep you? Arise: pray: lest you enter
into temptation.
22:47. As he was yet speaking, behold a multitude; and he that was
called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them and drew near to
Jesus, for to kiss him.
22:48. And Jesus said to him: Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man
with a kiss?
22:49. And they that were about him, seeing what would follow, said to
him: Lord, shall we strike with the sword?
22:50. And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off
his right ear.
22:51. But Jesus answering, said: Suffer ye thus far. And when he had
touched his ear, he healed him.
22:52. And Jesus said to the chief priests and magistrates of the temple
and the ancients, that were come unto him: Are ye come out, as it were
against a thief, with swords and clubs?
22:53. When I was daily with you in the temple, you did not stretch
forth your hands against me: but this is your hour and the power of
darkness.
22:54. And apprehending him, they led him to the high priest's house.
But Peter followed afar off.
22:55. And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall and
were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them.
22:56. Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light
and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him.
22:57. But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not.
22:58. And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art
one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not.
Another, etc... Observe here, in order to reconcile the four
Evangelists, that divers persons concurred in charging Peter with being
Christ's disciple; till at length they brought him to deny him thrice.
1. The porteress that let him in, and afterwards seeing him at the fire,
first put the question to him; and then positively affirmed that he was
with Christ. 2. Another maid accused him to the standers by; and gave
occasion to the man here mentioned to renew the charge against him,
which caused the second denial. 3. Others of the company took notice of
his being a Galilean; and were seconded by the kinsman of Malchus, who
affirmed he had seen him in the garden. And this drew on the third
denial.
22:59. And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man
affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him: for he is also
a Galilean.
22:60. And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And
immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew.
22:61. And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the
word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny
thrice.
22:62. And Peter going out, wept bitterly.
