Being conspired against, betrayed, and loved
14:1-11
Mark 14
:1
14:1
1Now the
aPassover and the
Feast of bUnleavened Bread were
ctwo days away. And the chief priests and the scribes were seeking a way to
dseize Him by craftiness and
ekill Him,
Mark 14
:2
14:2
For they said, Not at the feast, lest there be a
atumult by the people.
Mark 14
:3
14:3
1And while He was in
aBethany in the
bhouse of Simon the
cleper, as He reclined
at table, a woman came, having an alabaster flask of ointment, of very costly pure nard, and she broke the alabaster flask and poured
it over His head.
Mark 14
:4
14:4
But there were some who were indignantly commenting among themselves: Why has this waste of the ointment
1been made?
Mark 14
:5
14:5
For this ointment could have been sold for over
athree hundred
1denarii and given to the
bpoor. And they were infuriated with her.
Mark 14
:6
14:6
But Jesus said, Leave her alone. Why do you trouble her? She has done a noble deed on Me.
Mark 14
:7
14:7
For you always have the
apoor with you, and whenever you want, you can do good for them. But you do not always have
1Me.
Mark 14
:8
14:8
1She has done what she could; she has
2anointed My body beforehand for the
aburial.
Mark 14
:9
14:9
And truly I say to you, Wherever the gospel is
1proclaimed in the whole
aworld, what this woman has done shall also be told as a
bmemorial of her.
Mark 14
:10
14:10
And aJudas Iscariot, one of the
btwelve, went off to the chief priests to
cdeliver Him up to them.
Mark 14
:11
14:11
And when they heard
this, they rejoiced and promised to give him
1money. And he sought a way to
2deliver Him up opportunely.
3.
Instituting His supper
14:12-26
Mark 14
:12
14:12
And on the first day of the
1Feast of aUnleavened Bread, when they
2sacrificed the
bpassover, His disciples said to Him, Where do You want us to go and prepare so that You may eat the passover?
Mark 14
:13
14:13
And He
asent two of His disciples and said to them, Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you; follow him;
Mark 14
:14
14:14
And wherever he enters, say to the
1master of the house, The
aTeacher says, Where is My guest room, where I may eat the
bpassover with My disciples?
Mark 14
:15
14:15
And he will show you a large
aupper room, furnished
and ready. And there prepare for us.
Mark 14
:16
14:16
And the disciples went out and came into the city and found
it even as He had told them, and they prepared the passover.
Mark 14
:17
14:17
And when
aevening fell, He came with the twelve.
Mark 14
:18
14:18
And as they were reclining
at table and
1eating, Jesus said, Truly I say to you that
2one of you will
abetray Me, one who is
beating with Me.
Mark 14
:19
14:19
They began to be grieved and to say to Him one by one, Surely not
1I?
Mark 14
:20
14:20
And He said to them, It will be one of the twelve,
1one who dips with Me in the dish.
Mark 14
:21
14:21
For the Son of Man is
1going away, even as it is
awritten concerning Him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.
Mark 14
:22
14:22
1And as they were
2eating, He took
abread and
bblessed it, and He broke
it and gave
it to them, and said, Take; this is My
cbody.
Mark 14
:23
14:23
And He took a cup and gave thanks, and He gave
it to them; and they all drank of it.
Mark 14
:24
14:24
And He said to them, This is My
ablood of the
1covenant, which is being poured out for
bmany.
Mark 14
:25
14:25
Truly I say to you, I shall by no means drink of the
1product of the vine anymore until that day when I drink it new in the
akingdom of God.
Mark 14
:26
14:26
And after
asinging a hymn, they went out to the
bMount of Olives.
4.
Warning the disciples
14:27-31
Mark 14
:27
14:27
And Jesus said to them, You will all be
astumbled, because it is written,"I will smite the Shepherd, and the sheep will be
bscattered.''
Mark 14
:28
14:28
But after I have been raised, I will go before you into
aGalilee.
Mark 14
:29
14:29
But Peter said to Him, Even if all will be stumbled, yet I will not!
Mark 14
:30
14:30
And Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you that today in this night, before a
arooster crows twice, you will
1deny Me three times.
Mark 14
:31
14:31
But he went on speaking more intensely,
Even if I must
adie with You, I will by no means deny You! And they all said similarly.
5.
Experiencing Gethsemane — charging the disciples to watch and pray
14:32-42
Mark 14
:32
14:32
1And they came to a place named Gethsemane, and He
asaid to His disciples, Sit here while I pray.
Mark 14
:33
14:33
And He took
aPeter and James and John with Him and began to be
1awestruck and deeply distressed.
Mark 14
:34
14:34
And He said to them, My soul is exceedingly
asorrowful, even to death. Remain here and
bwatch.
Mark 14
:35
14:35
And going forward a little, He fell on the ground and
aprayed that, if it were possible, the
1bhour would pass from Him.
Mark 14
:36
14:36
And He said,
aAbba Father, all things are
bpossible to You; remove this
ccup from Me; yet not what I
dwill, but what
1You will.
Mark 14
:37
14:37
And He came and found them sleeping. And He said to Peter, Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not able to watch for one hour?
Mark 14
:38
14:38
aWatch and
bpray that you may not come into
ctemptation. The
dspirit is willing, but the
eflesh is weak.
Mark 14
:39
14:39
And going away again, He prayed, saying the same thing.
Mark 14
:40
14:40
And coming again, He found them sleeping, for their eyes were very heavy. And they did
anot know what to answer Him.
Mark 14
:41
14:41
And He came the third time and said to them, Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough. The
ahour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being
bdelivered into the hands of sinners.
Mark 14
:42
14:42
Arise, let us be going. Behold, the one betraying Me has drawn near.

Arrested
14:43-52
Mark 14
:43
14:43
And aimmediately, while He was still
bspeaking,
cJudas, one of the twelve, appeared, and with him a crowd with swords and clubs, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.
Mark 14
:44
14:44
Now the one who was
abetraying Him had given them a signal, saying, Whomever I kiss, He is the one. Seize Him and lead
Him away securely.
Mark 14
:45
14:45
And when he came, he
aimmediately approached Him and said,
bRabbi! and
ckissed Him affectionately.
Mark 14
:46
14:46
And they laid hands on Him and
aseized Him.
Mark 14
:47
14:47
But a certain
1one of those standing by drew his
asword and struck the slave of the high priest, and took off his ear.
Mark 14
:48
14:48
And Jesus answered and said to them, Have you come out as against a robber with swords and clubs to arrest Me?
Mark 14
:49
14:49
Day after day I was with you in the
1temple 2ateaching and you did not seize Me. But may the
bScriptures be
cfulfilled.
Mark 14
:50
14:50
And they all
aleft Him and fled.
Mark 14
:51
14:51
And a certain young man was accompanying Him, clothed with a linen cloth over
his naked body; and they seized him.
Mark 14
:52
14:52
But he left the linen cloth behind and fled naked.

Judged
14:53—15:15
a.
By the Jewish leaders, representing the Jews
14:53-72
Mark 14
:53
14:53
1And they
2aled Jesus away to the high priest, and all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes came together.
Mark 14
:54
14:54
And Peter
afollowed Him at a distance until
he was within the
bcourtyard of the high priest. And he was
there sitting with the
cattendants and warming himself in the light
of the fire.
Mark 14
:55
14:55
Now the chief priests and the whole
1aSanhedrin were seeking testimony against Jesus in order to put Him to death, and they could not find
it.
Mark 14
:56
14:56
For many gave
afalse testimony against Him, yet the testimonies were not consistent.
Mark 14
:57
14:57
And asome stood up and testified falsely against Him, saying,
Mark 14
:58
14:58
We heard Him say, I will
adestroy this temple made with
bhands, and
1in three days I will build another made without hands.
Mark 14
:59
14:59
And neither in this regard was their testimony consistent.
Mark 14
:60
14:60
And the high priest stood up in the midst and questioned Jesus, saying, Do You not answer anything? What
is this that these testify against You?
Mark 14
:61
14:61
But He was silent and did not answer
aanything. Again the high priest questioned Him and said to Him, Are
bYou the
cChrist, the Son of the
1dBlessed?
Mark 14
:62
14:62
And Jesus said,
1I am. And you shall see the
aSon of Man sitting at the
bright hand of Power and coming with the clouds of heaven.
Mark 14
:63
14:63
And the high priest,
atearing his
1garments, said, What further need do we have of witnesses?
Mark 14
:64
14:64
You heard the
1ablasphemy! How does it appear to you? And they all condemned Him of being worthy of
bdeath.
Mark 14
:65
14:65
And some began to
1aspit at Him and to
bblindfold His face and to
cbeat Him with their fists and to say to Him,
2Prophesy! And the attendants,
3dslapping Him about, took Him.
Mark 14
:66
14:66
1And while Peter was below in the
acourtyard, one of the servant girls of the high priest came,
Mark 14
:67
14:67
And seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, You also were with the
aNazarene, Jesus.
Mark 14
:68
14:68
But he denied
it, saying, I neither know nor understand what you are talking about. And he went outside into the forecourt, and a rooster crowed.
Mark 14
:69
14:69
And the servant girl, seeing him, began again to say to those standing by, This man is
one of them!
Mark 14
:70
14:70
But again he denied
it. And after a little while, those standing by again said to Peter, Surely you are
one of them, for you are a
aGalilean as
1well.
Mark 14
:71
14:71
But he began to
1curse and to swear, I do not know this man of whom you speak!
Mark 14
:72
14:72
And aimmediately a
brooster crowed a second time. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus had said to him, Before a rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times. And thinking upon it, he wept.
