38 Then He says to them, “My soul is deeply-grieved, to the point of death. Stay here and keep-watching with Me”. 39 And having gone ahead a little, He fell on His face while praying and saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me. Yet not as I want[a], but as You want ”. 40 And He comes to the disciples and finds them sleeping. And He says to Peter, “So were you[b] [three] not strong-enough[c] to keep watch with Me for one hour?
