The Agony in the Garden


Luke 22
39 And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him
Et egressus ibat secundum consuetudinem in monte Olivarum. Secuti sunt autem illum et discipuli.


40 And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
Et cum pervenisset ad locum, dixit illis : Orate ne intretis in tentationem.

41 And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,
Et ipse avulsus est ab eis quantum jactus est lapidis : et positis genibus orabat,


42 Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.
dicens : Pater, si vis, transfer calicem istum a me : verumtamen non mea voluntas, sed tua fiat.

43 And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.
Apparuit autem illi angelus de caelo, confortans eum. Et factus in agonia, prolixius orabat.


44 And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground.
Et factus est sudor ejus sicut guttae sanguinis decurrentis in terram.

45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow.
Et cum surrexisset ab oratione et venisset ad discipulos suos, invenit eos dormientes prae tristitia.

46 And he said to them: Why sleep you? arise, pray, lest you enter into temptation.
Et ait illis : Quid dormitis? surgite, orate, ne intretis in tentationem.
