The Plot to Kill Jesus

(Mat 26:1–5, 14–16; Mar 14:1, 2, 10, 11; Jhn 11:45–53 )

Now^G1161 the Feast^G1859 of Unleavened^G106 Bread, which is called^G3004 the Passover^G3957, was drawing^G1448 near^G1448.

Luk 22:2

Luk 22:2And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.

Luk 22:3

And Satan^G4567 entered^G1525 into Judas^G2455 who was called^G2564 Iscariot^G2469, who [fn]belonged^G1510^G1537 to the number^G706 of the twelve^G1427.

Luk 22:4

Luk 22:4And he went away and discussed with the chief priests and officers how he might betray Him to them.

Luk 22:5

Luk 22:5And they were glad and agreed to give him money.

Luk 22:6

Luk 22:6So he consented, and began seeking a good opportunity to betray Him to them [fn]apart from the crowd.

The Passover Meal

Luk 22:7

Then^G1161 came^G2064 the first day^G2250 of Unleavened^G106 Bread on which^G3739 the Passover^G3957 lamb^G3957 had^G1163 to be sacrificed^G2380.

Luk 22:8

Luk 22:8And Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.”

Luk 22:9

Luk 22:9And they said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare it?”

Luk 22:10

Luk 22:10And He said to them, “Behold, after you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters.

Luk 22:11

Luk 22:11“And you shall say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’

Luk 22:12

Luk 22:12“And he will show you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there.”

Luk 22:13

Luk 22:13And they left and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.

The Lord’s Supper

Luk 22:14

And when^G3753 the hour^G5610 had come^G1096, He reclined^G377 at the table, and the apostles^G652 with Him.

Luk 22:15

Luk 22:15And He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;

Luk 22:16

Luk 22:16for I say to you, I shall never again eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”

Luk 22:17

Luk 22:17And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He said, “Take this and share it among yourselves.

Luk 22:18

Luk 22:18“For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.”

Luk 22:19

Luk 22:19And when He had taken some bread and given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of Me.”

Luk 22:20

Luk 22:20And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is poured out for you is the new covenant in My blood.

Luk 22:21

Luk 22:21“But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with Me on the table.

Luk 22:22

Luk 22:22“For indeed, the Son of Man is going as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”

Luk 22:23

Luk 22:23And they began to argue among themselves which one of them it might be who was going to do this thing.

Who Is Greatest?

Luk 22:24

And there arose^G1096 also^G2532 a dispute^G5379 among^G1722 them as to which^G5101 one of them was regarded^G1380 to be greatest^G3173.

Luk 22:25

Luk 22:25And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’

Luk 22:26

Luk 22:26“But not so with you; rather the one who is the greatest among you must become like the youngest, and the leader like the servant.

Luk 22:27

Luk 22:27“For who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines? But I am among you as the one who serves.

Luk 22:28

“Now you are those^G3588 who have stood^G1265 by Me in My trials^G3986,

Luk 22:29

Luk 22:29and I grant you a kingdom, just as My Father granted one to Me,

Luk 22:30

Luk 22:30that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, and you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

(Mat 26:31–35; Mar 14:27–31; Jhn 13:36–38 )

Luk 22:31

“Simon^G4613, Simon^G4613, behold^G2400, Satan^G4567 has^G2192 [fn]demanded^G1809 to sift^G4617 all of you like^G5613 wheat^G4621.

Luk 22:32

Luk 22:32“But I have prayed earnestly for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, once you have returned, strengthen your brothers.”

Luk 22:33

Luk 22:33But he said to Him, “Lord, with You I am ready to go both to prison and to death!”

Luk 22:34

Luk 22:34And He said, “I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”

Luk 22:35

And He said^G3004 to them, “When^G3753 I sent^G649 you out^G649 without^G817 money^G905 belt^G905 and bag^G4082 and sandals^G5266, did you lack^G5302 anything^G5100?” They said^G3004, “Not a thing^G3762.”

Luk 22:36

Luk 22:36And He said to them, “But now, [fn]whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and [fn]whoever has no sword should sell his garment and buy one.

Luk 22:37

Luk 22:37“For I tell you that this which is written must be [fn]completed in Me, ‘AND HE WAS NUMBERED WITH TRANSGRESSORS’; for that which refers to Me has its [fn]completion.”

Luk 22:38

Luk 22:38And they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”

Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

(Mat 26:36–46; Mar 14:32–42; Jhn 18:1 )

Luk 22:39

And He came^G1831 out^G1831 and went^G4198 as was His custom^G1485 to the Mount^G3735 of Olives^G1636; and the disciples^G3101 also^G2532 followed^G190 Him.

Luk 22:40

Luk 22:40Now when He arrived at the place, He said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

Luk 22:41

Luk 22:41And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He knelt down and began to pray,

Luk 22:42

Luk 22:42saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this cup from Me, yet not My will, but Yours be done.”

Luk 22:43

Luk 22:43 [fn]Now an angel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him.

Luk 22:44

Luk 22:44And being in agony He was praying very fervently, and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground.

Luk 22:45

Luk 22:45And when He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow,

Luk 22:46

Luk 22:46and said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise up and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”

The Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus

(Mat 26:47–56; Mar 14:43–52; Jhn 18:1–11 )

Luk 22:47

While He was still^G2089 speaking^G2980, behold^G2400, a crowd^G3793 came, and the one called^G3004 Judas^G2455, one^G1520 of the twelve^G1427, was coming^G4281 ahead^G4281 of them, and he approached^G1448 Jesus^G2424 to kiss^G5368 Him.

Luk 22:48

Luk 22:48But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

Luk 22:49

Luk 22:49And when those around Him saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?”

Luk 22:50

Luk 22:50And one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

Luk 22:51

Luk 22:51But Jesus answered and said, “[fn]Stop! No more of this.” And He touched his ear and healed him.

Luk 22:52

Luk 22:52Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders who had come against Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs as against a robber?

Luk 22:53

Luk 22:53“While I was with you daily in the temple, you did not stretch out your hands against Me, but [fn]this hour and the authority of darkness are yours.”

(Mat 26:69–75; Mar 14:66–72; Jhn 18:13–18, 25–27 )

Luk 22:54

Now having arrested^G4815 Him, they led^G71 Him away and brought^G1521 Him to the house^G3614 of the high^G749 priest^G749, but Peter^G4074 was following^G190 at^G3113 a^G3113 distance^G3113.

Luk 22:55

Luk 22:55And after they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter was sitting among them.

Luk 22:56

Luk 22:56And a servant-girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight and looking intently at him, said, “This man was with Him too.”

Luk 22:57

Luk 22:57But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”

Luk 22:58

Luk 22:58A little later, another saw him and said, “You are one of them too!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

Luk 22:59

Luk 22:59And after about an hour had passed, another man began to insist, saying, “Certainly this man was with Him too, for he also is a Galilean.”

Luk 22:60

Luk 22:60But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

Luk 22:61

Luk 22:61And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, “Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”

Luk 22:62

Luk 22:62And he went out and cried bitterly.

(Mat 26:67, 68; Mar 14:65 )

Luk 22:63

Now the men^G435 who were holding^G4912 [fn]Jesus in^G4912 custody^G4912 were mocking^G1702 Him while they beat^G1194 Him,

Luk 22:64

Luk 22:64and they blindfolded Him and were asking Him, saying, “Prophesy, who is the one who hit You?”

Luk 22:65

Luk 22:65And they were saying many other things against Him, blaspheming.

Jesus Before the Sanhedrin

(Mat 26:57–68; Mar 14:61–64; Jhn 18:12–14, 19–24 )

Luk 22:66

And as^G5613 the day^G2250 came^G1096, the Council^G4244 of^G4244 elders^G4244 of the people^G2992 assembled^G4863, both^G5037 chief^G749 priests^G749 and scribes^G1122, and they led^G520 Him away^G520 to their Sanhedrin^G4892, saying^G3004,
