Matthew 26
26
The Plot Against Jesus
1When Jesus had finished saying all these things, he said to his disciples, 2“As you know, the Passover is two days away—and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified.”
3Then the chief priests and the elders of the people assembled in the palace of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas, 4and they schemed to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him. 5“But not during the festival,” they said, “or there may be a riot among the people.”
Jesus Anointed at Bethany
6While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of Simon the Leper, 7a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume, which she poured on his head as he was reclining at the table.
8When the disciples saw this, they were indignant. “Why this waste?” they asked. 9“This perfume could have been sold at a high price and the money given to the poor.”
10Aware of this, Jesus said to them, “Why are you bothering this woman? She has done a beautiful thing to me. 11The poor you will always have with you,#26:11 See Deut. 15:11. but you will not always have me. 12When she poured this perfume on my body, she did it to prepare me for burial. 13Truly I tell you, wherever this gospel is preached throughout the world, what she has done will also be told, in memory of her.”
Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
14Then one of the Twelve—the one called Judas Iscariot—went to the chief priests 15and asked, “What are you willing to give me if I deliver him over to you?” So they counted out for him thirty pieces of silver. 16From then on Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over.
The Last Supper
17On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?”
18He replied, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’ ” 19So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.
20When evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the Twelve. 21And while they were eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.”
22They were very sad and began to say to him one after the other, “Surely you don’t mean me, Lord?”
23Jesus replied, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. 24The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”
25Then Judas, the one who would betray him, said, “Surely you don’t mean me, Rabbi?”
Jesus answered, “You have said so.”
26While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”
27Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28This is my blood of the#26:28 Some manuscripts the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. 29I tell you, I will not drink from this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father’s kingdom.”
30When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
31Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me, for it is written:
“ ‘I will strike the shepherd,
and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ # 26:31
Zech. 13:7
32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
33Peter replied, “Even if all fall away on account of you, I never will.”
34 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.”
35But Peter declared, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.” And all the other disciples said the same.
Gethsemane
36Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” 37He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him, and he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 38Then he said to them, “My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.”
39Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. Yet not as I will, but as you will.”
40Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. “Couldn’t you men keep watch with me for one hour?” he asked Peter. 41“Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
42He went away a second time and prayed, “My Father, if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, may your will be done.”
43When he came back, he again found them sleeping, because their eyes were heavy. 44So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time, saying the same thing.
45Then he returned to the disciples and said to them, “Are you still sleeping and resting? Look, the hour has come, and the Son of Man is delivered into the hands of sinners. 46Rise! Let us go! Here comes my betrayer!”
Jesus Arrested
47While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent from the chief priests and the elders of the people. 48Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them: “The one I kiss is the man; arrest him.” 49Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed him.
50Jesus replied, “Do what you came for, friend.”#26:50 Or “Why have you come, friend?”
Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him. 51With that, one of Jesus’ companions reached for his sword, drew it out and struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his ear.
52 “Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. 53Do you think I cannot call on my Father, and he will at once put at my disposal more than twelve legions of angels? 54But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this way?”
55In that hour Jesus said to the crowd, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come out with swords and clubs to capture me? Every day I sat in the temple courts teaching, and you did not arrest me. 56But this has all taken place that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled.” Then all the disciples deserted him and fled.
Jesus Before the Sanhedrin
57Those who had arrested Jesus took him to Caiaphas the high priest, where the teachers of the law and the elders had assembled. 58But Peter followed him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high priest. He entered and sat down with the guards to see the outcome.
59The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for false evidence against Jesus so that they could put him to death. 60But they did not find any, though many false witnesses came forward.
Finally two came forward 61and declared, “This fellow said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’ ”
62Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, “Are you not going to answer? What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you?” 63But Jesus remained silent.
The high priest said to him, “I charge you under oath by the living God: Tell us if you are the Messiah, the Son of God.”
64 “You have said so,” Jesus replied. “But I say to all of you: From now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”#26:64 See Psalm 110:1; Daniel 7:13.
65Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, “He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we need any more witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy. 66What do you think?”
“He is worthy of death,” they answered.
67Then they spit in his face and struck him with their fists. Others slapped him 68and said, “Prophesy to us, Messiah. Who hit you?”
Peter Disowns Jesus
69Now Peter was sitting out in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him. “You also were with Jesus of Galilee,” she said.
70But he denied it before them all. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” he said.
71Then he went out to the gateway, where another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
72He denied it again, with an oath: “I don’t know the man!”
73After a little while, those standing there went up to Peter and said, “Surely you are one of them; your accent gives you away.”
74Then he began to call down curses, and he swore to them, “I don’t know the man!”
Immediately a rooster crowed. 75Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken: “Before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.

馬太福音 26
26
商議怎樣殺害耶穌(可14:1~2;路22:1~2)
1耶穌說完了這一切話,就對門徒說:2“你們知道兩天之後就是逾越節,人子將要被交給人,釘在十字架上。”3那時,祭司長和民間的長老聚集在大祭司該亞法的官邸,4商議怎樣用詭計逮捕耶穌,把他殺害。5不過他們說:“不可在節期下手,免得引起民眾暴動。”
有女人用香膏膏主(可14:3~9;約12:1~8。參路7:36~50)
6耶穌在伯大尼,在患痲風的西門家裡的時候,7有一個女人拿著一瓶珍貴的香膏前來,當耶穌坐席的時候,把它澆在耶穌的頭上。8門徒看見了,就很生氣,說:“為甚麼這樣浪費呢?9這香膏可以賣很多錢,賙濟窮人。”10耶穌知道了,就說:“為甚麼難為這個女人呢?她為我作了一件美事。11你們常常有窮人跟你們在一起,然而卻不常有我。12她把這香膏澆在我身上,是為了安葬我而作的。13我實在告訴你們,這福音無論傳到世界上甚麼地方,這女人所作的都要傳講,來記念她。”
猶大出賣耶穌(可14:10~11;路22:3~6)
14那時,十二門徒中的一個,就是加略人猶大,去見祭司長,說:15“如果我把他交給你們,你們願意給我甚麼呢?”他們就給了他三十塊銀子。16從那時起,他就找機會把耶穌交給他們。
最後的晚餐(可14:12~26;路22:7~23;約13:21~30)
17除酵節的第一天,門徒前來問耶穌:“你要我們在哪裡為你預備逾越節的晚餐呢?”18他說:“你們到城裡去見某人,對他說,老師說:‘我的時候快到了;我要到你那裡和我的門徒守逾越節。’”19門徒照耶穌的指示去作,預備好了逾越節的晚餐。20到了晚上,耶穌和十二門徒一同吃晚餐。21他們吃的時候,耶穌說:“我實在告訴你們,你們中間有一個人要出賣我。”22他們就很憂愁,一個一個地問他:“主啊,是我嗎?”23他回答:“那和我一同把手蘸在盤子裡的人,他要出賣我。24正如經上指著人子所說的,他固然要離世,但出賣人子的那人有禍了!他沒有生下來倒好。”25那出賣耶穌的猶大說:“拉比,是我嗎?”他說:“這是你說的。”
26他們吃的時候,耶穌拿起餅來,祝謝了就擘開,遞給門徒,說:“你們拿去吃吧,這是我的身體。”27耶穌又拿起杯來,祝謝了就遞給他們,說:“你們都喝吧,28這是我的血,是為立約的,為許多人流出來,使罪得赦。29我告訴你們,從今以後我必不再喝這葡萄酒,直到我和你們在我父的國裡喝新酒的那一天。”30他們唱完了詩,就出來往橄欖山去。
預言彼得不認主(可14:27~31;路22:31~34;約13:36~38)
31那時,耶穌對他們說:“今天晚上,你們因我的緣故都要後退,因為經上記著:
‘我要擊打牧人,
羊群就分散了。’
32我復活以後,要比你們先到加利利去。”33彼得對他說:“就算所有的人都因你的緣故後退,我卻永不後退。”34耶穌對他說:“我實在告訴你,今天晚上雞叫以前,你會三次不認我。”35彼得對他說:“就算必須與你一同死,我也決不會不認你。”門徒也都這樣說。
在客西馬尼禱告(可14:32~42;路22:39~46)
36耶穌和門徒來到一個地方,名叫客西馬尼,就對門徒說:“你們坐在這裡,我要到那邊去禱告。”37他帶了彼得和西庇太的兩個兒子一起去,心裡憂愁難過,38對他們說:“我的心靈痛苦得快要死了;你們留在這裡,與我一同警醒吧。”39他稍往前走,把臉俯伏在地上,禱告說:“我的父啊!可能的話,求你使這杯離開我;但不要照我的意思,只要照你的旨意。”40耶穌回到門徒那裡,看見他們都睡著了,就對彼得說:“你們連一個小時也不能同我警醒嗎?41應當警醒、禱告,免得陷入試探;你們心靈雖然願意,肉體卻是軟弱的。”42他又再次走開,禱告說:“我的父啊!如果這杯不能離開我,一定要我喝,就願你的旨意成全。”43他再回來的時候,看見門徒睡著了,因為他們十分疲倦。44他又離開他們,第三次去禱告,說的也是同樣的話。45然後,他回到門徒那裡,對他們說:“你們還在睡覺休息嗎?看哪,時候到了,人子要被交在罪人的手裡了。46起來,我們走吧!出賣我的人來了。”
耶穌被捕(可14:43~50;路22:47~53;約18:3~11)
47耶穌還在說話的時候,十二門徒中的猶大,帶著一大群拿著刀棒的人來到,他們是祭司長和民間的長老派來的。48出賣耶穌的人給他們一個暗號,說:“我跟誰親吻,誰就是他;你們可以抓住他。”49他立刻前來對耶穌說:“拉比,你好。”跟著就與他親吻。50耶穌對他說:“朋友,你來要作的事,快作吧!”於是那些人上前來,動手拿住耶穌,逮捕了他。51有一個與耶穌在一起的人,伸手拔出刀來,砍了大祭司的僕人一刀,削掉他的一隻耳朵。52耶穌對他說:“把你的刀收回原處!凡動刀的必死在刀下。53你以為我不能求我的父,他就馬上給我派十二營以上的天使下來嗎?54如果這樣,經上預言這事必須發生,怎能應驗呢?”55那時,耶穌對眾人說:“你們帶著刀棒出來,把我當作強盜捉拿嗎?我天天坐在殿裡教導人,你們卻沒有逮捕我。56但這整件事的發生,是要應驗先知書上的話。”那時,門徒都離開他逃跑了。
大祭司審問耶穌(可14:53~65;路22:54、66~71;約18:12~13、19~24)
57那些逮捕了耶穌的人,把他押去見大祭司該亞法。那時經學家和長老已經聚集在那裡了。58彼得遠遠地跟著耶穌,直到大祭司的官邸。他進到裡面,和差役坐在一起,要看事情怎樣了結。59祭司長和公議會全體都想找假證供來控告耶穌,好把他處死;60雖然有許多人前來作假證供,卻找不著證據。最後有兩個人前來說:61“這人說過:‘我可以拆毀 神的聖所,三日之內又把它建造起來。’”62大祭司就站起來,對耶穌說:“你為甚麼不回答?這些人作證,控告你的是甚麼呢?”63耶穌卻不作聲。大祭司又對他說:“我指著永生的 神要你起誓,告訴我們你是不是基督、 神的兒子。”64耶穌回答:“你已經說了#“你已經說了”或譯:“這是你說的”;但我告訴你們:
從今以後,你們要看見人子,
坐在權能者的右邊,
駕著天上的雲降臨。”
65大祭司就撕開衣服,說:“他說了褻瀆的話,我們還要甚麼證人呢?你們現在聽見了這褻瀆的話,66認為怎樣呢?”他們回答:“他是該死的。”67於是他們吐唾沫在他的臉上,用拳頭打他,也有人用掌摑他,說:68“基督啊,向我們說預言吧!是誰打你呢?”
彼得三次不認主(可14:66~72;路22:55~62;約18:16~18、25~27)
69彼得坐在外面的院子裡,有一個婢女走過來對他說:“你也是和加利利人耶穌一夥的。”70彼得卻當眾否認,說:“我不知道你說甚麼。”71他出到門口,又有一個婢女看見他,就對那裡的人說:“這人是和拿撒勒人耶穌一夥的。”72彼得再次否認,並且發誓說:“我不認識那個人。”73過了一會,站在那裡的人前來對他說:“你的確是他們中間的一個,因為一聽你的口音就認出來了。”74彼得就發咒起誓說:“我不認識那一個人。”立刻雞就叫了。75彼得想起耶穌所說的話:“雞叫以前,你會三次不認我”,他就出去痛哭。
