| 1 Ye know that after two days the passover takes place, and the Son of man is delivered up to be crucified. | 1 When Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said to his disciples, |
| 2 Then the chief priests and the elders of the people were gathered together to the palace of the high priest who was called Caiaphas, | 2 "You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of man will be delivered up to be crucified." |
| 3 and took counsel together in order that they might seize Jesus by subtlety and kill him; | 3 Then the chief priests and the elders of the people gathered in the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas, |
| 4 but they said, Not in the feast, that there be not a tumult among the people. | 4 and took counsel together in order to arrest Jesus by stealth and kill him. |
| 5 a woman, having an alabaster flask of very precious ointment, came to him and poured it out upon his head as he lay at table. | 5 But they said, "Not during the feast, lest there be a tumult among the people." |
| 6 But the disciples seeing it became indignant, saying, To what end {was} this waste? | 6 Now when Jesus was at Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, |
| 7 for this might have been sold for much and been given to the poor. | 7 a woman came up to him with an alabaster flask of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head, as he sat at table. |
| 8 But Jesus knowing {it} said to them, Why do ye trouble the woman? for she has wrought a good work toward me. | 8 But when the disciples saw it, they were indignant, saying, "Why this waste? |
| 9 For ye have the poor always with you, but me ye have not always. | 9 For this ointment might have been sold for a large sum, and given to the poor." |
| 10 For in pouring out this ointment on my body, she has done it for my burying. | 10 But Jesus, aware of this, said to them, "Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a beautiful thing to me. |
| 11 Verily I say to you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, that also which this {woman} has done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her. | 11 For you always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me. |
| 12 and said, What are ye willing to give me, and *I* will deliver him up to you? And they appointed to him thirty pieces of silver. | 12 In pouring this ointment on my body she has done it to prepare me for burial. |
| 13 And from that time he sought a good opportunity that he might deliver him up. | 13 Truly, I say to you, wherever this gospel is preached in the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her." |
| 14 And he said, Go into the city unto such a one, and say to him, The Teacher says, My time is near, I will keep the passover in thy house with my disciples. | 14 Then one of the twelve, who was called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests |
| 15 And the disciples did as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the passover. | 15 and said, "What will you give me if I deliver him to you?" And they paid him thirty pieces of silver. |
| 16 And when the evening was come he lay down at table with the twelve. | 16 And from that moment he sought an opportunity to betray him. |
| 17 And as they were eating he said, Verily I say to you, that one of you shall deliver me up. | 17 Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, "Where will you have us prepare for you to eat the passover?" |
| 18 And being exceedingly grieved they began to say to him, each of them, Is it *I*, Lord? | 18 He said, "Go into the city to a certain one, and say to him, 'The Teacher says, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at your house with my disciples.'" |
| 19 But he answering said, He that dips his hand with me in the dish, *he* it is who shall deliver me up. | 19 And the disciples did as Jesus had directed them, and they prepared the passover. |
| 20 The Son of man goes indeed, according as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is delivered up; it were good for that man if he had not been born. | 20 When it was evening, he sat at table with the twelve disciples; |
| 21 And Judas, who delivered him up, answering said, Is it *I*, Rabbi? He says to him, *Thou* hast said. | 21 and as they were eating, he said, "Truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me." |
| 22 And having taken {the} cup and given thanks, he gave {it} to them, saying, Drink ye all of it. | 22 And they were very sorrowful, and began to say to him one after another, "Is it I, Lord?" |
| 23 For this is my blood, that of the {new} covenant, that shed for many for remission of sins. | 23 He answered, "He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me, will betray me. |
| 24 But I say to you, that I will not at all drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father. | 24 The Son of man goes as it is written of him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born." |
| 25 Depois do canto dos Salmos, dirigiram-se eles para o monte das Oliveiras. | 25 Judas, who betrayed him, said, "Is it I, Master?" He said to him, "You have said so." |
| 26 Disse-lhes então Jesus: Esta noite serei para todos vós uma ocasião de queda; porque está escrito: Ferirei o pastor, e as ovelhas do rebanho serão dispersadas {Zc 13,7}. | 26 Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it, and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is my body." |
| 27 Mas, depois da minha Ressurreição, eu vos precederei na Galiléia. | 27 And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you; |
| 28 Pedro interveio: Mesmo que sejas para todos uma ocasião de queda, para mim jamais o serás. | 28 for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. |
| 29 Disse-lhe Jesus: Em verdade te digo: nesta noite mesma, antes que o galo cante, três vezes me negarás. | 29 I tell you I shall not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom." |
| 30 Respondeu-lhe Pedro: Mesmo que seja necessário morrer contigo, jamais te negarei! E todos os outros discípulos diziam-lhe o mesmo. | 30 And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. |
| 31 Retirou-se Jesus com eles para um lugar chamado Getsêmani e disse-lhes: Assentai-vos aqui, enquanto eu vou ali orar. | 31 Then Jesus said to them, "You will all fall away because of me this night; for it is written, 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.' |
| 32 E, tomando consigo Pedro e os dois filhos de Zebedeu, começou a entristecer-se e a angustiar-se. | 32 But after I am raised up, I will go before you to Galilee." |
| 33 Disse-lhes, então: Minha alma está triste até a morte. Ficai aqui e vigiai comigo. | 33 Peter declared to him, "Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away." |
| 34 Adiantou-se um pouco e, prostrando-se com a face por terra, assim rezou: Meu Pai, se é possível, afasta de mim este cálice! Todavia não se faça o que eu quero, mas sim o que tu queres. | 34 Jesus said to him, "Truly, I say to you, this very night, before the cock crows, you will deny me three times." |
| 35 Foi ter então com os discípulos e os encontrou dormindo. E disse a Pedro: Então não pudestes vigiar uma hora comigo... | 35 Peter said to him, "Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you." And so said all the disciples. |
| 36 Vigiai e orai para que não entreis em tentação. O espírito está pronto, mas a carne é fraca. | 36 Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go yonder and pray." |
| 37 Afastou-se pela segunda vez e orou, dizendo: Meu Pai, se não é possível que este cálice passe sem que eu o beba, faça-se a tua vontade! | 37 And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled. |
| 38 Voltou ainda e os encontrou novamente dormindo, porque seus olhos estavam pesados. | 38 Then he said to them, "My soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and watch with me." |
| 39 Deixou-os e foi orar pela terceira vez, dizendo as mesmas palavras. | 39 And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, "My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt." |
| 40 Voltou então para os seus discípulos e disse-lhes: Dormi agora e repousai! Chegou a hora: o Filho do Homem vai ser entregue nas mãos dos pecadores... | 40 And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping; and he said to Peter, "So, could you not watch with me one hour? |
| 41 Levantai-vos, vamos! Aquele que me trai está perto daqui. | 41 Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." |
| 42 Jesus ainda falava, quando veio Judas, um dos Doze, e com ele uma multidão de gente armada de espadas e cacetes, enviada pelos príncipes dos sacerdotes e pelos anciãos do povo. | 42 Again, for the second time, he went away and prayed, "My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, thy will be done." |
| 43 O traidor combinara com eles este sinal: Aquele que eu beijar, é ele. Prendei-o! | 43 And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. |
| 44 Aproximou-se imediatamente de Jesus e disse: Salve, Mestre. E beijou-o. | 44 So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same words. |
| 45 Disse-lhe Jesus: É, então, para isso que vens aqui? Em seguida, adiantaram-se eles e lançaram mão em Jesus para prendê-lo. | 45 Then he came to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. |
| 46 Mas um dos companheiros de Jesus desembainhou a espada e feriu um servo do sumo sacerdote, decepando-lhe a orelha. | 46 Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand." |
| 47 Jesus, no entanto, lhe disse: Embainha tua espada, porque todos aqueles que usarem da espada, pela espada morrerão. | 47 While he was still speaking, Judas came, one of the twelve, and with him a great crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the elders of the people. |
| 48 Crês tu que não posso invocar meu Pai e ele não me enviaria imediatamente mais de doze legiões de anjos? | 48 Now the betrayer had given them a sign, saying, "The one I shall kiss is the man; seize him." |
| 49 Mas como se cumpririam então as Escrituras, segundo as quais é preciso que seja assim? | 49 And he came up to Jesus at once and said, "Hail, Master!" And he kissed him. |
| 50 Depois, voltando-se para a turba, falou: Saístes armados de espadas e porretes para prender-me, como se eu fosse um malfeitor. Entretanto, todos os dias estava eu sentado entre vós ensinando no templo e não me prendestes. | 50 Jesus said to him, "Friend, why are you here?" Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him. |
| 51 Mas tudo isto aconteceu porque era necessário que se cumprissem os oráculos dos profetas. Então os discípulos o abandonaram e fugiram. | 51 And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword, and struck the slave of the high priest, and cut off his ear. |
| 52 Os que haviam prendido Jesus levaram-no à casa do sumo sacerdote Caifás, onde estavam reunidos os escribas e os anciãos do povo. | 52 Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back into its place; for all who take the sword will perish by the sword. |
| 53 Pedro seguia-o de longe, até o pátio do sumo sacerdote. Entrou e sentou-se junto aos criados para ver como terminaria aquilo. | 53 Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? |
| 54 Enquanto isso, os príncipes dos sacerdotes e todo o conselho procuravam um falso testemunho contra Jesus, a fim de o levarem à morte. | 54 But how then should the scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?" |
| 55 Mas não o conseguiram, embora se apresentassem muitas falsas testemunhas. | 55 At that hour Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs to capture me? Day after day I sat in the temple teaching, and you did not seize me. |
| 56 Por fim, apresentaram-se duas testemunhas, que disseram: Este homem disse: Posso destruir o templo de Deus e reedificá-lo em três dias. | 56 But all this has taken place, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples forsook him and fled. |
| 57 Levantou-se o sumo sacerdote e lhe perguntou: Nada tens a responder ao que essa gente depõe contra ti? | 57 Then those who had seized Jesus led him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered. |
| 58 Jesus, no entanto, permanecia calado. Disse-lhe o sumo sacerdote: Por Deus vivo, conjuro-te que nos digas se és o Cristo, o Filho de Deus? | 58 But Peter followed him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest, and going inside he sat with the guards to see the end. |
| 59 Jesus respondeu: Sim. Além disso, eu vos declaro que vereis doravante o Filho do Homem sentar-se à direita do Todo-poderoso, e voltar sobre as nuvens do céu. | 59 Now the chief priests and the whole council sought false testimony against Jesus that they might put him to death, |
| 60 A estas palavras, o sumo sacerdote rasgou suas vestes, exclamando: Que necessidade temos ainda de testemunhas? Acabastes de ouvir a blasfêmia! | 60 but they found none, though many false witnesses came forward. At last two came forward |
| 61 Qual o vosso parecer? Eles responderam: Merece a morte! | 61 and said, "This fellow said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.'" |
| 62 Cuspiram-lhe então na face, bateram-lhe com os punhos e deram-lhe tapas, | 62 And the high priest stood up and said, "Have you no answer to make? What is it that these men testify against you?" |
| 63 dizendo: Adivinha, ó Cristo: quem te bateu? | 63 But Jesus was silent. And the high priest said to him, "I adjure you by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God." |
| 64 Enquanto isso, Pedro estava sentado no pátio. Aproximou-se dele uma das servas, dizendo: Também tu estavas com Jesus, o Galileu. | 64 Jesus said to him, "You have said so. But I tell you, hereafter you will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven." |
| 65 Mas ele negou publicamente, nestes termos: Não sei o que dizes. | 65 Then the high priest tore his robes, and said, "He has uttered blasphemy. Why do we still need witnesses? You have now heard his blasphemy. |
| 66 Dirigia-se ele para a porta, a fim de sair, quando outra criada o viu e disse aos que lá estavam: Este homem também estava com Jesus de Nazaré. | 66 What is your judgment?" They answered, "He deserves death." |
| 67 Pedro, pela segunda vez, negou com juramento: Eu nem conheço tal homem. | 67 Then they spat in his face, and struck him; and some slapped him, |
| 68 Pouco depois, os que ali estavam aproximaram-se de Pedro e disseram: Sim, tu és daqueles; teu modo de falar te dá a conhecer. | 68 saying, "Prophesy to us, you Christ! Who is it that struck you?" |
| 69 Pedro então começou a fazer imprecações, jurando que nem sequer conhecia tal homem. E, neste momento, cantou o galo. | 69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. And a maid came up to him, and said, "You also were with Jesus the Galilean." |
| 70 Pedro recordou-se do que Jesus lhe dissera: Antes que o galo cante, negar-me-ás três vezes. E saindo, chorou amargamente. | 70 But he denied it before them all, saying, "I do not know what you mean." |
| 71 And when he went out to the porch, another maid saw him, and she said to the bystanders, "This man was with Jesus of Nazareth." |
| 72 And again he denied it with an oath, "I do not know the man." |
| 73 After a little while the bystanders came up and said to Peter, "Certainly you are also one of them, for your accent betrays you." |
| 74 Then he began to invoke a curse on himself and to swear, "I do not know the man." And immediately the cock crowed. |
| 75 And Peter remembered the saying of Jesus, "Before the cock crows, you will deny me three times." And he went out and wept bitterly. |
