Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives

Luke 22

39 And he came out and went as he was wont to the mount of Olives, and his disciples also followed him. 40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41 And he withdrew from them about a stone’s cast and kneeled down and prayed, 42 saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me; nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. 43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And being in agony, he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. 45 And when he rose up from prayer and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow 46 and said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.
