Luke 22:39-46

He came out and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives; and the
disciples followed him.  When he reached the place, he said to them, "Pray
that you may not come into the time of trial."  Then he withdrew from them
about a stone's throw, knelt down, and prayed, "Father, if you are
willing, remove this cup from me; yet, not my will but yours be done."
Then an angel from heaven appeared to him and gave him strength.  In his
anguish he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat became like great drops of
blood falling down on the ground.  When he got up from prayer, he came to
the disciples and found them sleeping because of grief, and he said to
them, "Why are you sleeping?  Get up and pray that you may not come into
the time of trial."
