37And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and sore troubled.

38Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: abide ye here, and watch with me.

39And he went forward a little, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass away from me: nevertheless, not as I will, but as thou wilt.

40And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?

41Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

42Again a second time he went away, and prayed, saying, My Father, if this cannot pass away, except I drink it, thy will be done.

43And he came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy.
