Mark 14:35-38

J.B. Phillips New Testament

³⁵ Then he walked forward a little way and flung himself on the ground, praying that, if it were possible, he might not have to face the ordeal.

³⁶ “Dear Father,” he said, “all things are possible to you. Please—let me not have to drink this cup! Yet it is not what I want but what you want.”

^37-38 Then he came and found them fast asleep. He spoke to Peter, “Are you asleep, Simon? Couldn’t you manage to watch for a single hour? Watch and pray, all of you, that you may not have to face temptation. Your spirit is willing, but human nature is weak.”
