Mat. 26:2 (LIT/UBS4) “You have seen (oidate) that (hoti) with (meta) [the passing, AE] of two (duo) days (hēmeras) the (to) Passover (pascha) causes itself to comes to pass (ginetai), and (kai) the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) is passed aside (paradidotai) into (eis) the (to) [hands of the chief sacrificial priests, vMat. 20:18, 26:3, RE] to be staked (staurōthēnai)?”

Mat. 26:8 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) having seen (idontes) [she poured, v7, RE], the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) were very agitated (ēganaktēsan), saying (legontes), “Into (eis) the (hē) loss (apōleia)  of what (ti) [amount is, AE] this (hautē)?

 

Mat. 26:9 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) this (touto) was being inherently powered (edunato) to be sold (prathēnai) for much (pollou), and (kai) to be given (dothēnai) to poor ones (ptōchois)!”

 

Mat. 26:10 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) having known (gnous), he enunciated (eipen) to them (autois), “Why (ti) hold alongside (parechete) labors (kopous) to the (tē) female (gunaiki), because (gar) she caused herself to work (ērgasato) [a] beautiful (kalon) work (ergon) into (eis) me (eme)?

 

Mat. 26:11 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) you always have (pantote echete) the (tous) poor ones (ptōchous) with (meth’) yourselves (heautōn).

But (de) the ones (hoi) made stand (estēsan) for him (autō) thirty (triakonta) pieces of silver (arguria)!

Mat. 26:24 (LIT/UBS4) Truly (men), the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) gets underway (hupagei) down according to as (kathōs) it has been written (gegraptai) about (peri) him (autou)!

 

But (de) woe (ouai) to the (tō) mortal (anthrōpō), to that one (ekeinō) through (di’) whom (hou) the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) is passed aside (paradidotai)!  

 

It would have been (ēn) beautiful (kalon) for him (autō) if (ei) the (ho) mortal (anthrōpos), that one (ekeinos), was absolutely not generated (ouk egennēthē)!”

 

Mat. 26:25 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) Judas (Ioudas), the one (ho) passing him aside (paradidous auton), having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis) he enunciated (eipen), “What, not (mēti) I (egō) am (eimi) [the mortal, v24, RE], rabbi (rhabbi)?” 

 

He says (legei) to him (autō), “You (su) enunciated (eipas) [it, AE]”!

 

Mat. 26:26 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) of them (autōn) eating (esthiontōn), the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) having taken (labōn) [a] loaf of bread (arton) and (kai) having eulogized (eulogēsas), he broke (eklasen) [[the] bread, RE].

Mat. 26:28 (LIT/UBS4) Because (gar) this (touto) is (estin) the (to) blood (haima) of me (mou) of the (tēs) new (kainēs) covenant (diathēkēs), the (to) [blood, RE] being poured out (ekchunnomenon) about (peri) [the sake, AE] of many (pollōn), into (eis) [a] letting go (aphasin) of sins (hamartiōn)!

Because (gar) it has been written (gegraptai), ‘I shall strike (pataxō) the (ton) shepherd (poimena).

 

And (kai) the (ta) sheep (probata) of the (tēs) flock (poimnēs) shall be scattered through (diaskorpisthēsontai).’

Mat. 26:32 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) with (meta) [[the] passing, AE] of the (to) [time, AE] for me (me) to be awakened (egerthēnai), I shall lead before (proaxō) you (humas) into (eis) the (tēn) Galilee (Galilaian).”

 

Mat. 26:33 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) having been caused to make [a] decision (apokritheis), the (ho) Peter (Petros) enunciated (eipen) to him (autō), “If (ei) all (pantes) shall be scandalized (skandalisthēsontai) in (en) you (soi), l (egō) but absolutely not yet at any time (oudepote) shall be scandalized (skandalisthēsomai)!”

 

Mat. 26:34 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) shed light5346 (ephē) to him (autō), “Truly (amēn) I say (egē) to you (soi), that (hoti) in (en) the (tē) night (nukti) to this (tautē), before (prin) [a] rooster (alektora) is to sound  (phōnēsai), three times (tris) you shall cause yourself to deny (aparnēsē) me (me)!”

 

Mat. 26:35 (LIT/UBS4) The (ho) Peter (Petros) says (legei) to him (autō), “And if perhaps (kan) it may be necessary (deē) for me (me) to die away (apothanein) together with (sun) you (soi), no (mē), absolutely not (ou) shall I cause myself to deny (aparnēsomai) you (se)!”

 

All (pantes) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai) also (kai) enunciated (eipan) likewise (homoiōs).

 

Mat. 26:36 (LIT/UBS4) Then (tote) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) causes himself to come (erchetai) with (met’) them (autōn) into (eis) [a] parcel (chōrion) being said (legomenon) [to be] Gethsemane (Gethsēmani).

 

And (kai) he says (legei) to the (tois) disciples (mathētai), “Sit down (kathisate) here (autou) until (heōs) of which (hou) [time, AE], I having gone away (apelthōn) there (ekei), I may cause myself to be well-thankful toward4336 (proseuxōmai) [God, AE].”

moreover (plēn), absolutely not (ouch) as (hōs) I (egō) desire (thelō), BUT (all’), as (hōs) you (su) [desire, RE]!”

 

Mat. 26:40 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) he causes himself to come (erchetai) to (pros) the (tous) disciples (mathētas), and (kai) he finds (heuriskei) them (autous) down sleeping (katheudontas).

 

And (kai) he says (legei) to the (tō) Peter (Petrō), “Thusly (houtōs), are you absolutely not strong enough (ouk ischusate) to stay awake (grēgorēsai) together with (met’) me (emou) for one (mian) hour (hōran)!?

 

Mat. 26:41 (LIT/UBS4) Stay awake (grēgoreite), and (kai) cause yourselves to be well-thankful to4336 (proseuchesthe) [God, AE], in order that (hina) you may not enter in (mē eiselthēte) into (eis) [a] testing (peirasmon)!

 

Truly (men) the (to) Spirit (pneuma) [is] passionately disposed (prothumon)!

 

But (de) the (hē) flesh (sarx) [is] disabled (asthenēs).”

 

Mat. 26:42 (LIT/UBS4) Out (ek) again (palin), [a] second (deuterou) [time, AE], he caused himself to be well-thankful to4336 (prosēuxato) [God, AE], saying (legōn), “Father (pater) of me (mou), if (ei) this (touto) can absolutely not be inherently powered (ou dunatai) to pass aside (parelthein) - if perhaps (ean) I may not drink (mē piō) it (auto), <let> the (to) desire (thelēma) of you (sou) be caused to come to pass (genēthētō)!”

 

(For Jesus Christ desiring not to do his own will, but the will of his heavenly Father, see Mat. 26:42; Luke 22:42; John 4:34, 5:30, 6:38.)

 

Mat. 26:43 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) he having come (elthōn) again (palin) he found (heuren) them (autous) down sleeping (katheudontas), because (gar) the (hoi) eyes (ophthalmoi) of them (autōn) were having been burdened (bebarēmenoi).

 

Mat. 26:44 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) he having let them go (apheis autous), he having gone away (apelthōn) again (palin), he caused himself to be well-thankful to4336 (prosēuxato) [God, AE] out (ek) [a] third (tritou) [time, AE], having enunciated (eipōn) the (ton) same (auton) word (logon).

 

Mat. 26:45 (LIT/UBS4) Then (tote) he causes himself to come (erchetai) to (pros) the (tous) disciples (mathētas), and (kai) he says (legei) to them (autois), Of the (to) remainder (loipon) [of time, AE] you are down asleep (katheudete), and (kai) rest yourselves up373 (anapauesthe)!?

 

Behold (idou), the (hē) hour (hōra) has come near1448 (ēngiken), and (kao) the (ho) Son (huios) of the (tou) Mortal (anthrōpou) is passed aside (paradidotai) into (eis) hands (cheiras) of sinful ones (hamartōlōn)!

 

Mat. 26:46 (LIT/UBS4) Be awakened (egeiresthe), may we be led (agōmen)

 

Behold (idou), the one (ho) passing me aside (paradidous me) has come near1448 (ēngiken)!”

 

Mat. 26:47 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) of him (autou) yet (eti) speaking (lalountos), behold (idou), Judas (Ioudas), one (heis) of the (tōn) twelve (dōdeka), came (ēlthe), and (kai) with (met) him (autou) much (polus) crowd (ochlos) with (meta) knives (machairōn) and (kai) staves (xulōn), from (apo) the (tōn) chief sacrificial priests (archiereōn) and (kai) elders (presbuterōn) of the (tou) people (loau)!

 

Mat. 26:48 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the one (ho) passing him aside (paradidous auton) gave (edōken) to them (autois) [a] sign (sēmeion), saying (legōn), “Perhaps (an) whomever (hon) I may love (philēsō), he (autos) is (estin) [the Son of the Mortal, v45, RE];

 

powerfully hold (kratēsate) him (auton)!”

 

Mat. 26:49 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) straightaway (eutheōs) having come to (proselthōn) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsou), he enunciated (eipen), “Rejoice (chaire), rabbi (rhabbi);” and (kai) he loved him down2705 (katephilēsen auton).

 

Mat. 26:50 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to him (autō), “Fellow worker (hetaire), over (eph’) [the sake, AE] of what (ho) are you here (parei)!?”

 

Then (tote), having come to (proselthontes) [the Jesus, RE], they threw (epebalon) the (tas) hands (cheiras) [of them, AE] upon (epi) the (ton) Jesus (Iēsoun) and (kai) they powerfully held (ekratēsan) him (auton).

 

Mat. 26:51 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) behold (idou), one (heis) of the ones (tōn) with (meta) Jesus (Iēsou), having stretched out (ekteinas) the (tēn) hand (cheira), he drew away (apespasen) the (tēn) knife (machairan) of him (autou).

 

And (kai) having struck (pataxas) the (ton) slave (doulon) of the (tou) chief sacrificial priest (archiereōs), he seized away (apheilen) the (to) ear lobe (ōtion) of him (autou).

 

Mat. 26:52 (LIT/UBS4) Then (tote) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) says (legei) to him (autō), “Turn away (apostrepson) the (tēn) knife (machairan) of you (sou) into (eis) the (ton) place (topon) of it (autēs)!

 

Because (gar) all (pantes) the ones (hoi) having taken (labontes) [a] knife (machairan) shall lose themselves (apolountai) in (en) [a] knife (machairē) [fight, AE]!

 

Mat. 26:53 (LIT/UBS4) Or (ē) do you conclude (dokeis) that (hoti) I can absolutely not inherently power myself (ou dunamai) to call alongside (parakalesai) the (ton) Father (patera) of me (mou), and (kai) he shall stand alongside (parastēsei) to me (moi) at this time (arti) more than (pleiō) twelve (dōdeka) legions (legiōnas) of messengers (angelōn)!?

 

Mat. 26:54 (LIT/UBS4) Therefore (oun), how (pōs) may be fulfilled (plērōthōsin) the (hai) writings (graphai), that (hoti) thusly (houtōs) it is required (dei) [of the writings, RE] to cause themselves to come to pass (genesthai)!?”

 

Mat. 26:55 (LIT/UBS4) In (en) the (tē) hour (hōra) of that (ekeinē) the (ho) Jesus (Iēsous) enunciated (eipen) to the (tois) crowds (ochlois), “As (hōs) over (epi) [the sake, AE] of [a] robber (lēstēn) you came out (exēlthate) together to take (sullabein) me (me), with (meta) knives (machairōn) and (kai) staves (xulōn)!? 

 

Down (kath’) each day (hēmeran) I was causing myself to sit down (ekathezomēn) teaching (didaskōn) in (en) the (tō) sacred place (hierō), and (kai) you absolutely did not powerfully hold (ouk ekratēsate) me (me)!”

 

Mat. 26:56 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) this (touto) whole thing (holon) has come to pass (gegonen) in order that (hina) the (hai) writings (graphai) of the (tōn) prophets (prophētōn) may be fulfilled (plērōthōsin)!"

 

Then (tote) the (hoi) disciples (mathētai), all (pantes) having let him go (aphentes auton), fled (ephugon).

 

Mat. 26:57 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the ones (hoi) having powerfully held (kratēsantes) the (ton) Jesus (Iēsoun), they led away (apēgagon) [the Jesus, RE] to (pros) Caiaphas (Kaiaphan), the (ton) chief sacrificial priest (archierea), where (hopou) the (hoi) writers (grammateis) and (kai) the (hoi) elders (presbuteroi) were brought together (sunēchthēsan).

 

Mat. 26:58 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (ho) Peter (Petros) was following (ēkolouthei) him (autō) from (apo) afar (makrothen), until (heōs) the (tēs) courtyard (aulēs) of the (tou) chief sacrificial priest (archiereōs).

 

And (kai) he having entered in (eiselthōn) inside (esō), he was causing himself to sit down (ekathēto) with (meta) the (tōn) under-oarsmen5257 (hupēretōn), to see (idein) the (to) completion (telos).

 

Mat. 26:59 (LIT/UBS4) But (de) the (hoi) chief sacrificial priests (archiereis), and (kai) the (ho) whole (holon) Sanhedrin (sunedrion), were searching (ezētoun) for [a] false witness (pseudomarturian) down against (kata) the (tou) Jesus (Iēsous), it so being that (hopōs) they might put him to death (auton thanatōsōsin)!

 

Mat. 26:60 (LIT/UBS4) And (kai) they absolutely did not find (ouch heuron) many (pollōn) false witnesses (pseudomarturōn) having come to (proselthontōn) [them, AE]!
