Mark 14 :: New American Standard Bible 1995 (NASB95)

Death Plot and Anointing

(Mat 26:1–5; Luk 22:1, 2; Jhn 11:45–53 )

Mar 14:1

Mar 14:1Now the Passover and Unleavened Bread were two days away; and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to seize Him by stealth and kill Him;

Mar 14:2

Mar 14:2for they were saying, “Not during the festival, otherwise there might be a riot of the people.”

Mar 14:3

Mar 14:3While He was in Bethany at the home of Simon the leper, and reclining at the table, there came a woman with an alabaster vial of very costly perfume of pure [fn]nard; and she broke the vial and poured it over His head.

Mar 14:4

Mar 14:4But some were indignantly remarking to one another, “Why has this perfume been wasted?

Mar 14:5

Mar 14:5“For this perfume might have been sold for over three hundred [fn]denarii, and the money given to the poor.” And they were scolding her.

Mar 14:6

Mar 14:6But Jesus said, “Let her alone; why do you bother her? She has done a good deed to Me.

Mar 14:7

Mar 14:7“For you always have the poor with you, and whenever you wish you can do good to them; but you do not always have Me.

Mar 14:8

Mar 14:8“She has done what she could; she has anointed My body beforehand for the burial.

Mar 14:9

Mar 14:9“Truly I say to you, wherever the gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of in memory of her.”

Mar 14:10

Mar 14:10Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve, went off to the chief priests in order to [fn]betray Him to them.

Mar 14:11

Mar 14:11They were glad when they heard this, and promised to give him money. And he began seeking how to betray Him at an opportune time.

Mar 14:12

Mar 14:12On the first day of Unleavened Bread, when [fn]the Passover lamb was being sacrificed, His disciples *said to Him, “Where do You want us to go and prepare for You to eat the Passover?”

Mar 14:13

Mar 14:13And He *sent two of His disciples and *said to them, “Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him;

Mar 14:14

Mar 14:14and wherever he enters, say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says, “Where is My guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’

Mar 14:15

Mar 14:15“And he himself will show you a large upper room furnished and ready; prepare for us there.”

Mar 14:16

Mar 14:16The disciples went out and came to the city, and found it just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.

Mar 14:17

Mar 14:17When it was evening He *came with the twelve.

Mar 14:18

Mar 14:18As they were reclining at the table and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I say to you that one of you will [fn]betray Me—[fn]one who is eating with Me.”

Mar 14:19

Mar 14:19They began to be grieved and to say to Him one by one, “Surely not I?”

Mar 14:20

Mar 14:20And He said to them, “It is one of the twelve, [fn]one who dips with Me in the bowl.

Mar 14:21

Mar 14:21“For the Son of Man is to go just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man [fn]by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good [fn]for that man if he had not been born.”

Mar 14:22

Mar 14:22While they were eating, He took some bread, and [fn]after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, “Take it; this is My body.”

Mar 14:23

Mar 14:23And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

Mar 14:24

Mar 14:24And He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

Mar 14:25

Mar 14:25“Truly I say to you, I will never again drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”

Mar 14:26

Mar 14:26After singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

Mar 14:27

Mar 14:27And Jesus *said to them, “You will all [fn]fall away, because it is written, ‘I WILL STRIKE DOWN THE SHEPHERD, AND THE SHEEP SHALL BE SCATTERED.’

Mar 14:28

Mar 14:28“But after I have been raised, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.”

Mar 14:29

Mar 14:29But Peter said to Him, “Even though all may [fn]fall away, yet I will not.”

Mar 14:30

Mar 14:30And Jesus *said to him, “Truly I say to you, that [fn]this very night, before a rooster crows twice, you yourself will deny Me three times.”

Mar 14:31

Mar 14:31But Peter kept saying insistently, “Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!” And they all were saying the same thing also.

Jesus in Gethsemane

(Mat 26:36–46; Luk 22:39–46 )

Mar 14:32

Mar 14:32They *came to a place named Gethsemane; and He *said to His disciples, “Sit here until I have prayed.”

Mar 14:33

Mar 14:33And He *took with Him Peter and [fn]James and John, and began to be very distressed and troubled.

Mar 14:34

Mar 14:34And He *said to them, “My soul is deeply grieved to the point of death; remain here and keep watch.”

Mar 14:35

Mar 14:35And He went a little beyond them, and fell to the ground and began to pray that if it were possible, the hour might [fn]pass Him by.

Mar 14:36

Mar 14:36And He was saying, “Abba! Father! All things are possible for You; remove this cup from Me; yet not what I will, but what You will.”

Mar 14:37

Mar 14:37And He *came and *found them sleeping, and *said to Peter, “Simon, are you asleep? Could you not keep watch for one hour?

Mar 14:38

Mar 14:38“Keep watching and praying that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”

Mar 14:39

Mar 14:39Again He went away and prayed, saying the same [fn]words.

Mar 14:40

Mar 14:40And again He came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him.

Mar 14:41

Mar 14:41And He *came the third time, and *said to them, “[fn]Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough; the hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being [fn]betrayed into the hands of sinners.

Mar 14:42

Mar 14:42“Get up, let us be going; behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!”

Betrayal and Arrest

(Mat 26:47–56; Luk 22:47–53; Jhn 18:1–11 )

Mar 14:43

Mar 14:43Immediately while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, *came up [fn]accompanied by a crowd with swords and clubs, who were from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

Mar 14:44

Mar 14:44Now he who was betraying Him had given them a signal, saying, “Whomever I kiss, He is the one; seize Him and lead Him away [fn]under guard.”

Mar 14:45

Mar 14:45After coming, Judas immediately went to Him, saying, “Rabbi!” and kissed Him.

Mar 14:46

Mar 14:46They laid hands on Him and seized Him.

Mar 14:47

Mar 14:47But one of those who stood by drew his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest and [fn]cut off his ear.

Mar 14:48

Mar 14:48And Jesus said to them, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me, as you would against a robber?

Mar 14:49

Mar 14:49“Every day I was with you in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this has taken place to fulfill the Scriptures.”

Mar 14:50

Mar 14:50And they all left Him and fled.

Mar 14:51

Mar 14:51A young man was following Him, wearing nothing but a linen sheet over his naked body; and they *seized him.

Mar 14:52

Mar 14:52But he [fn]pulled free of the linen sheet and escaped naked.

Jesus before His Accusers

(Mat 26:57–68; Luk 22:66–71; Jhn 18:12–14, 19–24 )

Mar 14:53

Mar 14:53They led Jesus away to the high priest; and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes *gathered together.

Mar 14:54

Mar 14:54Peter had followed Him at a distance, right into the courtyard of the high priest; and he was sitting with the [fn]officers and warming himself at the [fn]fire.

Mar 14:55

Mar 14:55Now the chief priests and the whole [fn]Council kept trying to obtain testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, and they were not finding any.

Mar 14:56

Mar 14:56For many were giving false testimony against Him, but their testimony was not consistent.

Mar 14:57

Mar 14:57Some stood up and began to give false testimony against Him, saying,

Mar 14:58

Mar 14:58“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this [fn]temple made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.’”

Mar 14:59

Mar 14:59Not even in this respect was their testimony consistent.

Mar 14:60

Mar 14:60The high priest stood up and came forward and questioned Jesus, saying, “Do You not answer? [fn]What is it that these men are testifying against You?”

Mar 14:61

Mar 14:61But He kept silent and did not answer. Again the high priest was questioning Him, and [fn]saying to Him, “Are You [fn]the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?”

Mar 14:62

Mar 14:62And Jesus said, “I am; and you shall see THE SON OF MAN SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF POWER, and COMING WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN.”

Mar 14:63

Mar 14:63Tearing his clothes, the high priest *said, “What further need do we have of witnesses?

Mar 14:64

Mar 14:64“You have heard the blasphemy; how does it seem to you?” And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death.

Mar 14:65

Mar 14:65Some began to spit at Him, and [fn]to blindfold Him, and to beat Him with their fists, and to say to Him, “Prophesy!” And the officers [fn]received Him with [fn]slaps in the face.

Mar 14:66

Mar 14:66As Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the servant-girls of the high priest *came,

Mar 14:67

Mar 14:67and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and *said, “You also were with Jesus the Nazarene.”

Mar 14:68

Mar 14:68But he denied it, saying, “I neither know nor understand what you are talking about.” And he went out onto the [fn]porch.[fn]

Mar 14:69

Mar 14:69The servant-girl saw him, and began once more to say to the bystanders, “This is one of them!”

Mar 14:70

Mar 14:70But again he denied it. And after a little while the bystanders were again saying to Peter, “Surely you are one of them, for you are a Galilean too.”

Mar 14:71

Mar 14:71But he began to [fn]curse and swear, “I do not know this man you are talking about!”

Mar 14:72

Mar 14:72Immediately a rooster crowed a second time. And Peter remembered how Jesus had made the remark to him, “Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.” [fn]And he began to weep.
