Bible verse
He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.
Matthew 26:37 · BSB
The verses around it, from Matthew 26.
33 Peter said to Him, “Even if all fall away on account of You, I never will.”
34 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus declared, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.”
35 Peter replied, “Even if I have to die with You, I will never deny You.” And all the other disciples said the same thing.
36 At that time Jesus went with His disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and He told them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
37 He took with Him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee and began to be sorrowful and deeply distressed.
38 Then He said to them, “My soul is consumed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.”
39 Going a little farther, He fell facedown and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I will, but as You will.”
40 Then Jesus returned to the disciples and found them sleeping. “Were you not able to keep watch with Me for one hour?” He asked Peter.
41 “Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak.”
