Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

36 gThen Jesus went with them hto a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, Sit here, while I go over there and pray.” 37And taking with him iPeter and jthe two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38Then he said to them, kMy soul is very sorrowful, even to death; remain here, and lwatch
Or keep awake; also verses 40, 41
with me.”
39And going a little farther he fell on his face nand prayed, saying, My Father, if it be possible, let othis cup pass from me; pnevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.” 40And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter, So, could you not watch with me one hour? 41 qWatch and rpray that you smay not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.” 42Again, for the second time, he went away and prayed, My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, tyour will be done.” 43And again he came and found them sleeping, for utheir eyes were heavy. 44So, leaving them again, he went away and prayed for vthe third time, saying the same words again. 45Then he came to the disciples and said to them, Sleep and take your rest later on.
Or Are you still sleeping and taking your rest?
See, xthe hour is at hand, and ythe Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
46Rise, let us be going; see, my betrayer is at hand.”

Luke 22:44

44And zbeing in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

John 17

The High Priestly Prayer

1When Jesus had spoken these words, abhe lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, acthe hour has come; adglorify your Son that the Son may aeglorify you, 2since afyou have given him authority over all flesh, agto give eternal life to all ahwhom you have given him. 3 aiAnd this is eternal life, ajthat they know you, akthe only altrue God, and amJesus Christ whom you have sent. 4I anglorified you on earth, aohaving accomplished the work that you gave me to do. 5And now, Father, apglorify me in your own presence with the glory aqthat I had with you arbefore the world existed.

6 as“I have manifested your name to the people atwhom you gave me out of the world. auYours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. 7Now they know that everything avthat you have given me is from you. 8For I have given them awthe words that you gave me, and they have received them and have come to know in truth that axI came from you; and aythey have believed that you sent me. 9I am praying for them. azI am not praying for the world but for those bawhom you have given me, for bbthey are yours. 10 bcAll mine are yours, and yours are mine, and bdI am glorified in them. 11And I am no longer in the world, but bethey are in the world, and bfI am coming to you. bgHoly Father, bhkeep them in your name, biwhich you have given me, bjthat they may be one, bkeven as we are one. 12 blWhile I was with them, I kept them in your name, which you have given me. I have bmguarded them, and bnnot one of them has been lost except bothe son of destruction, bpthat the Scripture might be fulfilled. 13But now bqI am coming to you, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have brmy joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 bsI have given them your word, and btthe world has hated them bubecause they are not of the world, bvjust as I am not of the world. 15I bwdo not ask that you bxtake them out of the world, but that you bykeep them from bzthe evil one.
Or  from evil
16 cbThey are not of the world, just as I am not of the world. 17 ccSanctify them

in the truth; ceyour word is truth.
18 cfAs you sent me into the world, so I have sent them into the world. 19And cgfor their sake chI consecrate myself,

20“I do not clask for these only, but also for those cmwho will believe in me through their word, 21 cnthat they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that cothey also may be in cpus, so that the world cqmay believe that you have sent me. 22 crThe glory that you have given me csI have given to them, ctthat they may be one even as we are one, 23 cuI in them and you in me, cvthat they may become perfectly one, cwso that the world may know that you sent me and cxloved them even as cyyou loved me. 24Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be czwith me dawhere I am, dbto see my glory that you have given me because you loved me dcbefore the foundation of the world. 25 ddO righteous Father, even though dethe world does not know you, I know you, and these know that you have sent me. 26 dfI made known to them your name, and I will continue to make it known, that the love dgwith which you have loved me may be in them, and dhI in them.”
