Death Plot and Anointing |
|
|
 |
|
Mark 14:1
|
|
Now the Passover and Unleavened Bread were two
days away; and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to seize Him
by stealth and kill Him; |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:2
|
|
for they were saying, "Not during the festival,
otherwise there might be a riot of the people." |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:3
|
|
While He was in Bethany at the home of Simon
the leper, and reclining at the table, there came a woman with an alabaster vial
of very costly perfume of pure nard; and she broke the vial and poured it over
His head. |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:4
|
|
But some were indignantly remarking to one another,
"Why has this perfume been wasted? |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:5
|
|
For this perfume might have been sold for over
three hundred denarii, and the money given to the poor." And they were scolding
her. |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:6
|
|
But Jesus said, "Let her
alone; why do you bother her? She has done a good deed to Me. |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:7
|
|
For you always have the
poor with you, and whenever you wish you can do good to them; but you do not always
have Me. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:8
|
|
She has done what she
could; she has anointed My body beforehand for the burial. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:9
|
|
Truly I say to you, wherever
the gospel is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also
be spoken of in memory of her." |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:10
|
|
Then Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve,
went off to the chief priests in order to betray Him to them. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:11
|
|
They were glad when they heard this, and promised
to give him money. And he began seeking how to betray Him at an opportune time. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Last Passover |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:12
|
|
On the first day of Unleavened Bread, when
the Passover lamb was being sacrificed, His disciples *said
to Him, "Where do You want us to go and prepare for You to eat the Passover?" |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:13
|
|
And He *sent
two of His disciples and *said
to them, "Go into the city, and a man will meet you carrying
a pitcher of water; follow him; |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:14
|
|
and wherever he enters,
say to the owner of the house, 'The Teacher says, "Where is My guest room in which
I may eat the Passover with My disciples?"' |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:15
|
|
And he himself will show
you a large upper room furnished and ready; prepare for us there." |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:16
|
|
The disciples went out and came to the city,
and found it just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:17
|
|
When it was evening He *came
with the twelve. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:18
|
|
As they were reclining at the table and eating,
Jesus said, "Truly I say to you that one of you will betray
Me-one who is eating with Me." |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:19
|
|
They began to be grieved and to say to Him one
by one, "Surely not I?" |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:20
|
|
And He said to them,
"It is one of the twelve, one who dips with Me in the bowl. |
| |
|
|
|
Mark 14:21
|
|
For the Son of Man is
to go just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man
is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born." |
| |
|
|
| |
|
The Lord's Supper |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:22
|
|
While they were eating, He took some bread,
and after a blessing He broke it, and gave it to them, and said, "Take
it; this is My body." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:23
|
|
And when He had taken a cup and given thanks,
He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:24
|
|
And He said to them, "This
is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:25
|
|
Truly I say to you, I
will never again drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it
new in the kingdom of God." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:26
|
|
After singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount
of Olives. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:27
|
|
And Jesus *said
to them, "You will all fall away, because it is written,
'I WILL STRIKE DOWN THE SHEPHERD, AND THE SHEEP SHALL BE SCATTERED.' |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:28
|
|
But after I have been
raised, I will go ahead of you to Galilee." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:29
|
|
But Peter said to Him, " Even though all may
fall away, yet I will not." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:30
|
|
And Jesus *said
to him, "Truly I say to you, that this very night, before
a rooster crows twice, you yourself will deny Me three times." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:31
|
|
But Peter kept saying insistently, " Even if
I have to die with You, I will not deny You!" And they all were saying the same
thing also. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Jesus in Gethsemane |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:32
|
|
They *came
to a place named Gethsemane; and He *said
to His disciples, "Sit here until I have prayed." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:33
|
|
And He *took
with Him Peter and James and John, and began to be very distressed and troubled. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:34
|
|
And He *said
to them, "My soul is deeply grieved to the point of death;
remain here and keep watch." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:35
|
|
And He went a little beyond them, and fell to
the ground and began to pray that if it were possible, the hour might pass Him
by. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:36
|
|
And He was saying, "Abba!
Father! All things are possible for You; remove this cup from Me; yet not what
I will, but what You will." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:37
|
|
And He *came
and *found
them sleeping, and *said
to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not keep watch
for one hour? |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:38
|
|
Keep watching and praying
that you may not come into temptation; the spirit is willing, but the flesh is
weak." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:39
|
|
Again He went away and prayed, saying the same
words. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:40
|
|
And again He came and found them sleeping, for
their eyes were very heavy; and they did not know what to answer Him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:41
|
|
And He *came
the third time, and *said
to them, "Are you still sleeping and resting? It is enough;
the hour has come; behold, the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of
sinners. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:42
|
|
Get up, let us be going;
behold, the one who betrays Me is at hand!" |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Betrayal and Arrest |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:43
|
|
Immediately while He was still speaking, Judas,
one of the twelve, *came
up accompanied by a crowd with swords and clubs, who were from the chief priests
and the scribes and the elders. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:44
|
|
Now he who was betraying Him had given them
a signal, saying, "Whomever I kiss, He is the one; seize Him and lead Him away
under guard." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:45
|
|
After coming, Judas immediately went to Him,
saying, "Rabbi!" and kissed Him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:46
|
|
They laid hands on Him and seized Him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:47
|
|
But one of those who stood by drew his sword,
and struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his ear. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:48
|
|
And Jesus said to them,
"Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me, as you would against a
robber? |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:49
|
|
Every day I was with you
in the temple teaching, and you did not seize Me; but this has taken place to
fulfill the Scriptures." |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:50
|
|
And they all left Him and fled. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:51
|
|
A young man was following Him, wearing nothing
but a linen sheet over his naked body; and they *seized
him. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:52
|
|
But he pulled free of the linen sheet and escaped
naked. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Jesus before His Accusers |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:53
|
|
They led Jesus away to the high priest; and
all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes *gathered
together. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:54
|
|
Peter had followed Him at a distance, right
into the courtyard of the high priest; and he was sitting with the officers and
warming himself at the fire. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:55
|
|
Now the chief priests and the whole tCouncil
kept trying to obtain testimony against Jesus to put Him to death, and they were
not finding any.56 |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:56
|
|
For many were giving false testimony against
Him, but their testimony was not consistent. |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:57
|
|
Some stood up and began to give false testimony
against Him, saying, |
|
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:58
|
|
"We heard Him say, 'I will destroy this temple
made with hands, and in three days I will build another made without hands.'" |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:59
|
|
Not even in this respect was their testimony
consistent. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:60
|
|
The high priest stood up and came forward and
questioned Jesus, saying, "Do You not answer? What is it that these men are testifying
against You?" |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:61
|
|
But He kept silent and did not answer. Again
the high priest was questioning Him, and saying to Him, "Are You the Christ, the
Son of the Blessed One? " |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:62
|
|
And Jesus said, "I am;
and you shall see THE SON OF MAN SITTING AT THE RIGHT HAND OF POWER, and COMING
WITH THE CLOUDS OF HEAVEN." |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:63
|
|
Tearing his clothes, the high priest *said,
"What further need do we have of witnesses? |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:64
|
|
You have heard the blasphemy; how does it seem
to you?" And they all condemned Him to be deserving of death. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:65
|
|
Some began to spit at Him, and to blindfold
Him, and to beat Him with their fists, and to say to Him, "Prophesy!" And the
officers received Him with slaps in the face. |
| |
|
|
| |
|
Peter's Denials |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:66
|
|
As Peter was below in the courtyard, one of
the servant-girls of the high priest *came, |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:67
|
|
and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked
at him and *said,
"You also were with Jesus the Nazarene." |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:68
|
|
But he denied it, saying, "I neither know nor
understand what you are talking about." And he went out onto the porch. |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:69
|
|
The servant-girl saw him, and began once more
to say to the bystanders, "This is one of them!" |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:70
|
|
But again he denied it. And after a little while
the bystanders were again saying to Peter, "Surely you are one of them, for you
are a Galilean too." |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:71
|
|
But he began to curse and swear, "I do not
know this man you are talking about!" |
|
|
|
|
Mark 14:72
|
|
Immediately a rooster crowed a second time.
And Peter remembered how Jesus had made the remark to him, "Before
a rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times." And he began to weep. |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| |
|
|
