Jesus Prays in Gethsemane

40 And he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter, "So, could you not watch with me one hour? 41 q Watch and u pray that you v may not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." 42 Again, for the second time, he went away and prayed, "My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it, w your will be done." 43 And again he came and found them sleeping, for x their eyes were heavy.
