The chief priests and the scribes were looking for some underhanded way to arrest Jesus and to kill him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-2.htm"><b>2</b></a></span>However, they said, "We shouldn't arrest him during the festival, or else there will be a riot among the people."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-3.htm"><b>3</b></a></span>Jesus was in Bethany at the home of Simon, a man who had suffered from a skin disease. While Jesus was sitting there, a woman went to him. She had a bottle of very expensive perfume made from pure nard. She opened the bottle and poured the perfume on his head. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-4.htm"><b>4</b></a></span>Some who were there were irritated and said to one another, "Why was the perfume wasted like this? <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-5.htm"><b>5</b></a></span>This perfume could have been sold for a high price, and the money could have been given to the poor." So they said some very unkind things to her. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-6.htm"><b>6</b></a></span>Jesus said, "Leave her alone! Why are you bothering her? She has done a beautiful thing for me. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-7.htm"><b>7</b></a></span>You will always have the poor with you and can help them whenever you want. But you will not always have me with you. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-8.htm"><b>8</b></a></span>She did what she could. She came to pour perfume on my body before it is placed in a tomb. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-9.htm"><b>9</b></a></span>I can guarantee this truth: Wherever the Good News is spoken in the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-10.htm"><b>10</b></a></span>Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve apostles, went to the chief priests to betray Jesus. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-11.htm"><b>11</b></a></span>They were pleased to hear what Judas had to say and promised to give him money. So he kept looking for a chance to betray Jesus.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-12.htm"><b>12</b></a></span>Killing the Passover lamb was customary on the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread. The disciples asked Jesus, "Where do you want us to prepare the Passover meal for you?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-13.htm"><b>13</b></a></span>He sent two of his disciples and told them, "Go into the city. You will meet a man carrying a jug of water. Follow him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-14.htm"><b>14</b></a></span>When he goes into a house, tell the owner that the teacher asks, 'Where is my room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?' <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-15.htm"><b>15</b></a></span>He will take you upstairs and show you a large room. The room will be completely furnished. Get everything ready for us there." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-16.htm"><b>16</b></a></span>The disciples left. They went into the city and found everything as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-17.htm"><b>17</b></a></span>When evening came, Jesus arrived with the twelve apostles. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-18.htm"><b>18</b></a></span>While they were at the table eating, Jesus said, "I can guarantee this truth: One of you is going to betray me, one who is eating with me!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-19.htm"><b>19</b></a></span>Feeling hurt, they asked him one by one, "You don't mean me, do you?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-20.htm"><b>20</b></a></span>He said to them, "It's one of you twelve, someone dipping his hand into the bowl with me. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-21.htm"><b>21</b></a></span>The Son of Man is going to die as the Scriptures say he will. But how horrible it will be for that person who betrays the Son of Man! It would have been better for that person if he had never been born."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-22.htm"><b>22</b></a></span>While they were eating, Jesus took bread and blessed it. He broke the bread, gave it to them, and said, "Take this. This is my body." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-23.htm"><b>23</b></a></span>Then he took a cup, spoke a prayer of thanksgiving, and gave the cup to them. They all drank from it. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-24.htm"><b>24</b></a></span>He said to them, "This is my blood, the blood of the promise. It is poured out for many people. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-25.htm"><b>25</b></a></span>"I can guarantee this truth: I won't drink this wine again until that day when I drink new wine in the kingdom of God."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-26.htm"><b>26</b></a></span>After they sang a hymn, they went to the Mount of Olives.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-27.htm"><b>27</b></a></span>Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will abandon me. Scripture says, 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.' <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-28.htm"><b>28</b></a></span>"But after I am brought back to life, I will go to Galilee ahead of you." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-29.htm"><b>29</b></a></span>Peter said to him, "Even if everyone else abandons you, I won't." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-30.htm"><b>30</b></a></span>Jesus said to Peter, "I can guarantee this truth: Tonight, before a rooster crows twice, you will say three times that you don't know me." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-31.htm"><b>31</b></a></span>But Peter said very strongly, "Even if I have to die with you, I will never say that I don't know you." All the other disciples said the same thing.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-32.htm"><b>32</b></a></span>Then they came to a place called Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, "Stay here while I pray." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-33.htm"><b>33</b></a></span>He took Peter, James, and John with him and began to feel distressed and anguished. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-34.htm"><b>34</b></a></span>He said to them, "My anguish is so great that I feel as if I'm dying. Wait here, and stay awake." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-35.htm"><b>35</b></a></span>After walking a little farther, he fell to the ground and prayed that if it were possible he might not have to suffer what was ahead of him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-36.htm"><b>36</b></a></span>He said, "Abba! Father! You can do anything. Take this cup [of suffering] away from me. But let your will be done rather than mine." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-37.htm"><b>37</b></a></span>He went back and found them asleep. He said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn't you stay awake for one hour? <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-38.htm"><b>38</b></a></span>Stay awake, and pray that you won't be tempted. You want to do what's right, but you're weak." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-39.htm"><b>39</b></a></span>He went away again and prayed the same prayer as before. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-40.htm"><b>40</b></a></span>He found them asleep because they couldn't keep their eyes open. They didn't even know what they should say to him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-41.htm"><b>41</b></a></span>He came back a third time and said to them, "You might as well sleep now. It's all over. The time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to sinners. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-42.htm"><b>42</b></a></span>Get up! Let's go! The one who is betraying me is near."</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-43.htm"><b>43</b></a></span>Just then, while Jesus was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve apostles, arrived. A crowd carrying swords and clubs was with him. They were from the chief priests, scribes, and leaders of the people. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-44.htm"><b>44</b></a></span>Now, the traitor had given them a signal. He said, "The one I kiss is the man you want. Arrest him, and guard him closely as you take him away." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-45.htm"><b>45</b></a></span>Then Judas quickly stepped up to Jesus and said, "Rabbi!" and kissed him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-46.htm"><b>46</b></a></span>Some men took hold of Jesus and arrested him. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-47.htm"><b>47</b></a></span>One of those standing there pulled out his sword and cut off the ear of the chief priest's servant. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-48.htm"><b>48</b></a></span>Jesus asked them, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me as if I were a criminal? <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-49.htm"><b>49</b></a></span>I used to teach in the temple courtyard every day. But you didn't arrest me then. But what the Scriptures say must come true." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-50.htm"><b>50</b></a></span>Then all the disciples abandoned him and ran away.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-51.htm"><b>51</b></a></span>A certain young man was following Jesus. He had nothing on but a linen sheet. They tried to arrest him, <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-52.htm"><b>52</b></a></span>but he left the linen sheet behind and ran away naked.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-53.htm"><b>53</b></a></span>The men took Jesus to the chief priest. All the chief priests, leaders, and scribes had gathered together. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-54.htm"><b>54</b></a></span>Peter followed him at a distance and went into the chief priest's courtyard. He sat with the guards and warmed himself facing the glow of a fire. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-55.htm"><b>55</b></a></span>The chief priests and the whole Jewish council were searching for some testimony against Jesus in order to execute him. But they couldn't find any. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-56.htm"><b>56</b></a></span>Many gave false testimony against him, but their statements did not agree. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-57.htm"><b>57</b></a></span>Then some men stood up and gave false testimony against him. They said, <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-58.htm"><b>58</b></a></span>"We heard him say, 'I'll tear down this temple made by humans, and in three days I'll build another temple, one not made by human hands.'" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-59.htm"><b>59</b></a></span>But their testimony did not agree even on this point. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-60.htm"><b>60</b></a></span>So the chief priest stood up in the center and asked Jesus, "Don't you have any answer to what these men testify against you?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-61.htm"><b>61</b></a></span>But he was silent. The chief priest asked him again, "Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-62.htm"><b>62</b></a></span>Jesus answered, "Yes, I am, and you will see the Son of Man in the highest position in heaven. He will be coming with the clouds of heaven." <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-63.htm"><b>63</b></a></span>The chief priest tore his clothes in horror and said, "Why do we need any more witnesses? <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-64.htm"><b>64</b></a></span>You've heard him dishonor God! What's your verdict?" All of them condemned him with the death sentence. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-65.htm"><b>65</b></a></span>Some of them began to spit on him. They covered his face and hit him with their fists. They said to him, "Prophesy!" Even the guards took him and slapped him.</p> <p class="reg"><span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-66.htm"><b>66</b></a></span>Peter was in the courtyard. One of the chief priest's female servants <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-67.htm"><b>67</b></a></span>saw Peter warming himself. She looked at him and said, "You, too, were with Jesus from Nazareth!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-68.htm"><b>68</b></a></span>But Peter denied it by saying, "I don't know him, and I don't understand what you're talking about." He went to the entrance. Then a rooster crowed. <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-69.htm"><b>69</b></a></span>The servant saw him. Once again she said to those who were standing around, "This man is one of them!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-70.htm"><b>70</b></a></span>Peter again denied it. After a little while the men standing there said to Peter again, "It's obvious you're one of them. You're a Galilean!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-71.htm"><b>71</b></a></span>Then Peter began to curse and swear with an oath, "I don't know this man you're talking about!" <span class="reftext"><a href="/mark/14-72.htm"><b>72</b></a></span>Just then a rooster crowed a second time. Peter remembered that Jesus said to him, "Before a rooster crows twice, you will say three times that you don't know me." Then Peter began to cry very hard.</p></div></div><div id="botbox"><div class="padbot"><div align="center">GOD'S WORD® is a copyrighted work of <a href="//www.godsword.org" target="_top">God's Word to the Nations</a>.
