40 And he came to his disciples, and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter, So, whether ye might not one hour wake with me? or might ye not one hour wake with me?
41 Wake ye, and pray ye, that ye enter not into temptation; for the spirit is ready, but the flesh is sick, or unstable, or unsteadfast.
42 Again the second time he went, and prayed, saying, My Father, if this cup may not pass, but I drink it, thy will be done.

37 And he came, and found them sleeping. And he said to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? mightest thou not wake with me one hour?
