The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 48: Mark: The Challoner Revision
Bible. Mark
14:30. And Jesus saith to him: Amen I say to thee, to-day, even in this
night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.
Crow twice... The cocks crow at two different times of the night; viz.,
about midnight for the first time; and then about the time commonly
called the cock crowing; and this was the cock crowing our Saviour spoke
of; and therefore the other Evangelists take no notice of the first
crowing.
14:31. But he spoke the more vehemently: Although I should die together
with thee, I will not deny thee. And in like manner also said they all.
14:32. And they came to a farm called Gethsemani. And he saith to his
disciples: Sit you here, while I pray.
14:33. And he taketh Peter and James and John with him: and he began to
fear and to be heavy.
14:34. And he saith to them: My soul is sorrowful even unto death. Stay
you here and watch.
14:35. And when he was gone forward a little, he fell flat on the
ground: and he prayed that, if it might be, the hour might pass from
him.
14:36. And he saith: Abba, Father, all things are possible to thee:
remove this chalice from me; but not what I will, but what thou wilt.
14:37. And he cometh and findeth them sleeping. And he saith to Peter:
Simon, sleepest thou? Couldst thou not watch one hour?
14:38. Watch ye: and pray that you enter not into temptation. The spirit
indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
14:39. And going away again, he prayed, saying the same words.
14:40. And when he returned, he found them again asleep (for their eyes
were heavy): and they knew not what to answer him.
14:41. And he cometh the third time and saith to them: Sleep ye now and
take your rest. It is enough. The hour is come: behold the Son of man
shall be betrayed into the hands of sinners.
14:42. Rise up: let us go. Behold, he that will betray me is at hand.
14:43. And while he was yet speaking, cometh Judas Iscariot, one of the
twelve: and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the
chief priests and the scribes and the ancients.
14:44. And he that betrayed him had given them a sign, saying:
Whomsoever I shall kiss, that is he. Lay hold on him: and lead him away
carefully.
14:45. And when he was come, immediately going up to him he saith: Hail,
Rabbi! And he kissed him.
14:46. But they laid hands on him and held him.
14:47. And one of them that stood by, drawing a sword, struck a servant
of the chief priest and cut off his ear.
14:48. And Jesus answering, said to them: Are you come out as to a
robber, with swords and staves to apprehend me?
14:49. I was daily with you in the temple teaching: and you did not lay
hands on me. But that the scriptures may be fulfilled.
14:50. Then his disciples, leaving him, all fled away.
14:51. And a certain young man followed him, having a linen cloth cast
about his naked body. And they laid hold on him.
14:52. But he, casting off the linen cloth, fled from them naked.
