Satan entered into Judas, who was surnamed Iscariot, who was numbered with the twelve.

Luke 22:4

He went away, and talked with the chief priests and captains about how he might deliver him to them.

Luke 22:5

They were glad, and agreed to give him money.

Luke 22:6

Luke 22:7

The day of unleavened bread came, on which the Passover must be sacrificed.

Luke 22:21

But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.



Luke 22:22

The Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!"

Luke 22:23

They began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.

Luke 22:24

There arose also a contention among them, which of them was considered to be greatest.

Luke 22:25

He said to them, "The kings of the nations lord it over them, and those who have authority over them are called 'benefactors.'

Luke 22:26

But not so with you. But one who is the greater among you, let him become as the younger, and one who is governing, as one who serves.

Luke 22:27

For who is greater, one who sits at the table, or one who serves? Isn't it he who sits at the table? But I am in the midst of you as one who serves.

Luke 22:33

He said to him, "Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!"

Luke 22:35

He said to them, "When I sent you out without purse, and wallet, and shoes, did you lack anything?" They said, "Nothing."



Luke 22:36

Then he said to them, "But now, whoever has a purse, let him take it, and likewise a wallet. Whoever has none, let him sell his cloak, and buy a sword.

Luke 22:37

For I tell you that this which is written must still be fulfilled in me: 'He was counted with transgressors.' For that which concerns me has an end."

Luke 22:38

They said, "Lord, behold, here are two swords." He said to them, "That is enough."

Luke 22:39

He came out, and went, as his custom was, to the Mount of Olives. His disciples also followed him.

Luke 22:42

saying, "Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done."

Luke 22:52

Jesus said to the chief priests, captains of the temple, and elders, who had come against him, "Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?

After about one hour passed, another confidently affirmed, saying, "Truly this man also was with him, for he is a Galilean!"

Luke 22:60

But Peter said, "Man, I don't know what you are talking about!" Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

Luke 22:61

The Lord turned, and looked at Peter. Then Peter remembered the Lord's word, how he said to him, "Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times."

Luke 22:62

He went out, and wept bitterly.

Luke 22:63

The men who held Jesus mocked him and beat him.

Luke 22:64

Having blindfolded him, they struck him on the face and asked him, "Prophesy! Who is the one who struck you?"

Luke 22:65

They spoke many other things against him, insulting him.

Luke 22:66

As soon as it was day, the assembly of the elders of the people was gathered together, both chief priests and scribes, and they led him away into their council, saying,

Luke 22:67

"If you are the Christ, tell us." But he said to them, "If I tell you, you won't believe,

Luke 22:68

and if I ask, you will in no way answer me or let me go.

Luke 22:69

From now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the power of God."

Luke 22:70
