The Agony in the Garden

Saint Luke - Chapter 22

The Grotto of the Agony. J-J Tissot

[40] Et cum pervenisset ad locum, dixit illis : Orate ne intretis in tentationem.
And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

[41] Et ipse avulsus est ab eis quantum jactus est lapidis : et positis genibus orabat,
And he was withdrawn away from them a stone's cast; and kneeling down, he prayed,

[42] dicens : Pater, si vis, transfer calicem istum a me : verumtamen non mea voluntas, sed tua fiat.
Saying: Father, if thou wilt, remove this chalice from me: but yet not my will, but thine be done.

[43] Apparuit autem illi angelus de caelo, confortans eum. Et factus in agonia, prolixius orabat.
And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed the longer.

[44] Et factus est sudor ejus sicut guttae sanguinis decurrentis in terram.
And his sweat became as drops of blood, trickling down upon the ground.

Totus tuus ego sum 

Et omnia mea tua sunt;

Tecum semper tutus sum:
Ad Jesum per Mariam
