Chapter 22 of LukeNew American Standard Bible (NASB)



  1. 1Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the 2Passover, was approaching.
  2. The chief priests and the scribes 3were seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.
  3. 4And 5Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, [a]belonging to the number of the twelve.
  4. And he went away and discussed with the chief priests and 6officers how he might betray Him to them.
  5. They were glad and agreed to give him money.
  6. So he consented, and began seeking a good opportunity to betray Him to them [b]apart from the crowd.
  7. 7Then came the first day of Unleavened Bread on which 8the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.
  8. And Jesus sent 9Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.”
  9. They said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare it?”
  10. And He said to them, “When you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters.
  11. And you shall say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’
  12. And he will show you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there.”
  13. And they left and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
  14. 10When the hour had come, He reclined at the table, and 11the apostles with Him.
  15. And He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;
  16. for I say to you, I shall never again eat it 12until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
  17. 13And when He had taken a cup and 14given thanks, He said, “Take this and share it among yourselves;
  18. for 15I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.”
  19. And when He had taken some bread and 16given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
  20. And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is 17poured out for you is the 18new covenant in My blood.
  21. 19But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with [c]Mine on the table.
  22. For indeed, the Son of Man is going 20as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”
  23. And they began to discuss among themselves which one of them it might be who was going to do this thing.
  24. ¶ And there arose also 21a dispute among them as to which one of them was regarded to be greatest.
  25. 22And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’
  26. But it is not this way with you, 23but the one who is the greatest among you must become like 24the youngest, and the leader like the servant.
  27. For 25who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But 26I am among you as the one who serves.
  28. ¶ “You are those who have stood by Me in My 27trials;
  29. and just as My Father has granted Me a 28kingdom, I grant you
  30. that you may 29eat and drink at My table in My 30kingdom, and 31you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
  31. ¶ “Simon, Simon, behold, 32Satan has [d]demanded permission to 33sift you like wheat;
  32. but I 34have prayed for you, that your faith may not fail; and you, when once you have turned again, 35strengthen your brothers.”
  33. 36But he said to Him, “Lord, with You I am ready to go both to prison and to death!”
  34. And He said, “I say to you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know Me.”
  35. ¶ And He said to them, “37When I sent you out without money belt and bag and sandals, you did not lack anything, did you?” They said, “No, nothing.”
  36. And He said to them, “But now, [e]whoever has a money belt is to take it along, likewise also a bag, and [f]whoever has no sword is to sell his [g]coat and buy one.
  37. For I tell you that this which is written must be fulfilled in Me, ‘38AND HE WAS NUMBERED WITH TRANSGRESSORS’; for 39that which refers to Me has its [h]fulfillment.”
  38. They said, “Lord, look, here are two 40swords.” And He said to them, “It is enough.”
  39. 41And He came out and proceeded 42as was His custom to 43the Mount of Olives; and the disciples also followed Him.
  40. 44When He arrived at the place, He said to them, “45Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
  41. And He withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and He 46knelt down and began to pray,
  42. saying, “Father, if You are willing, remove this 47cup from Me; 48yet not My will, but Yours be done.”
  43. [i]Now an 49angel from heaven appeared to Him, strengthening Him.
  44. And 50being in agony He was praying very fervently; and His sweat became like drops of blood, falling down upon the ground.
  45. When He rose from prayer, He came to the disciples and found them sleeping from sorrow,
  46. and said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Get up and 51pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
  47. 52While He was still speaking, behold, a crowd came, and the one called Judas, one of the twelve, was preceding them; and he approached Jesus to kiss Him.
  48. But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
  49. When those who were around Him saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the 53sword?”
  50. And one of them struck the slave of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
  51. But Jesus answered and said, “[j]Stop! No more of this.” And He touched his ear and healed him.
  52. Then Jesus said to the chief priests and 54officers of the temple and elders who had come against Him, “Have you come out with swords and clubs 55as you would against a robber?
  53. While I was with you daily in the temple, you did not lay hands on Me; but [k]this hour and the power of darkness are yours.”
  54. 56Having arrested Him, they led Him away and brought Him to the house of the high priest; but 57Peter was following at a distance.
  55. 58After they had kindled a fire in the middle of 59the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter was sitting among them.
  56. And a servant-girl, seeing him as he sat in the firelight and looking intently at him, said, “This man was with Him too.”
  57. But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know Him.”
  58. A little later, 60another saw him and said, “You are one of them too!” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”
  59. After about an hour had passed, another man began to insist, saying, “Certainly this man also was with Him, 61for he is a Galilean too.”
  60. But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” Immediately, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.
  61. 62The Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He had told him, “63Before a rooster crows today, you will deny Me three times.”
  62. And he went out and wept bitterly.
  63. 64Now the men who were holding [l]Jesus in custody were mocking Him and beating Him,
  64. and they blindfolded Him and were asking Him, saying, “65Prophesy, who is the one who hit You?”
  65. And they were saying many other things against Him, 66blaspheming.
  66. 67When it was day, 68the [m]Council of elders of the people assembled, both chief priests and scribes, and they led Him away to their 69council chamber, saying,
  67. 70If You are the [n]Christ, tell us.” But He said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe;
  68. and if I ask a question, you will not answer.
  69. 71But from now on 72THE SON OF MAN WILL BE SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND of the power OF GOD.”
  70. And they all said, “Are You 73the Son of God, then?” And He said to them, “[o]74Yes, I am.”
  71. Then they said, “What further need do we have of testimony? For we have heard it ourselves from His own mouth.”

    The NWT adds words to the text that are not in the greek Manuscripts to fit it's own doctrinal position for example

    Compare the wording of the NWT and the NKJV at Colossians 1:15-17

    NKJV says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or principalities or powers. All things were created through Him and for Him. 17 And He is before all things, and in Him all things consist.

    NWT says

    15 He is the image of the invisible God,the firstborn OF all creation;16 because by means of him all OTHER things were created in the heavens and on the earth, the things visible and the things invisible,whether they are thrones or lordships or governments or authorities. All OTHER things have been created through him and for him. 17 Also, he is before all OTHER things,and by means of him all OTHER things were made to exist,

    The word “other” is not in the Greek but they add it Why? So they can decieve their followers into thinking that Christ was created by the Father and that he then created other things, that is not what the Greek says.

      Truth is from God and those that follow him. As for lies? John8:44

      Kiamia, I noticed you used a modern version of kjv to make your point about the nwt.

      Why didn’t you use the original kjv of col1:15?

      Is it because it disproves your point? It proves the opposite of what you wrote?

      Here is kjv col1:15 ¶” Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn OF every creature:“

      Now I appeal to your Christian nature to correct your mistake as God is watching each of us, and let us bless the God of Jesus his father.

      Kjv 1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ….

    Joshua, Jehovah’s Witnesses have never denied the deity of the Messiah in his prehuman existence. While on Earth he was fully 100% human. I do not mean he was a mere human, he was not affected by Adam’s unfaithful behavior, he was sinless.

      The bible tells us to test the spirits. Satan disguises himself as angel of light. So yes some denomination are not teaching the truth. You are responsible for judging which ones are not. You have to judge the truth at all times. this is what the bible teaches

    The NWT is a very good translation. Dr. Jason David BeDuhn PhD attests to that in his book Truth in Translation. drive.google.com/...5p16melHzg8/view

      The NWT is Satanic filth to its very core.

      The JW Cult is Satanic to its very core.

      Praise Yahweh I will never be a victim of JW brainwashing. If I burn in Hell for eternity or I am ultimately annihilated so be it

      May Yahweh's curse rest on the Watchtower Society and its Satanic leadership

      NWT is a false translation that takes away from the deity of Jesus !

    Thank you for taking the time to provide this service. I like seeing the NASB on your web page in the same format as I read on paper. On other sites, the text area is smaller, and so I have to keep scrolling down to read and sometimes I lose the context. So I really appreciate the format.

    As far as the NWT, you are certainly free to do whatever you think best with your own web pages. I'd suggest that you make a note anytime you have a translation that is associated with only one denomination or church, for example:
    New World Translation (Jehovah's Witness version).

    In Jesus' parable of the wheat and the tares. the main idea seems to be that you can't easily distinguish between God's people and not-God's people on this earth, so our Lord's response is to wait until they are shown to be the kind of people they are inside. But the NWT seems like false teaching to me. So I think the warning passages from Jesus' apostles are more applicable, as in 2 Peter 3:15-16, when he talks about Paul's writings:
    "There are some things in them that are hard to understand, which the ignorant and unstable twist to their own destruction, as they do the other Scriptures."
    And we also have the positive exhortations, as in 2 Timothy 2:15:
    "Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth."

      Your suggestion regarding the denominational flagging is duly noted. But I can’t help but wonder, wouldn’t a Catholic also want “Protestant versions” marked as well?

      As for the parable, I’m pretty sure the slaves were convinced in their own minds that they could tell the tares from the wheat. After all, aren’t they the ones who identified the problem in the first place? But the master obviously thought otherwise.

      Furthermore, even at the time when Jesus himself was walking the earth, not everybody who claimed fellowship actually followed him causing John to inquire at Mark 9:39, “Teacher, we saw someone casting out demons in Your name, and we tried to prevent him because he was not following us.” But Jesus said, “Do not hinder him . . . for he who is not against us is for us.”

    Hello, question.. why have you included the NWT with other legitimate bible translations? Or why have you not atleast included a warning to readers? Don't you fear that someone could be influenced by the Watchtower's intentional heresies? Thank you.

      Please site these intentional heresies. I am well versed in the watch tower outline and agree they are in many ways incorrect but i also bet i can point many out from EVERY established or main denomination. There is much to learn from them all as one who drinks milk?

      Judge not lest ye be judged, that is not to pass judgement on you either brother.

      I debate with scripture. I don't hold it to be true that Michael is Y'Shua HaMeshiach but I also firmly hold it to be true that our G-d and Heavenly Father are not the word encarnate and only begotten son.

      I love not seeing "lord" which i relate to baal. I feel the catholic church is a satanic establishment and I am aware a freemason started the hovies but there are evil in high places and our fight is also with principalities.

      What i'm saying is that in my darkest hours, those two were some of if not the only ones who would bring a Bible and eucharist and pray with me.

      We all fall short of the glory of G-d.

      Don't forget the NWT was recognized as the most accurate translation on Jeopardy.

      Lastly, this is different I noted than the NWT i have read and am very familiar with. Pull up the watchtower page and compare. I truly look forward to getting this one!
