Luke 22:39-46

39Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives. His disciples followed him. 40When they reached the place, Jesus spoke. “Pray that you won’t fall into sin when you are tempted,” he said to them. 41Then he went a short distance away from them. There he got down on his knees and prayed. 42He said, “Father, if you are willing, take this cup of suffering away from me. But do what you want, not what I want.” 43An angel from heaven appeared to Jesus and gave him strength. 44Because he was very sad and troubled, he prayed even harder. His sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. 45After that, he got up from prayer and went back to the disciples. He found them sleeping. They were worn out because they were very sad. 46“Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up! Pray that you won’t fall into sin when you are tempted.”
