Mark 14:38 in Context — Mark 14

36 Il disait: Abba, Père, toutes choses te sont possibles, éloigne de moi cette coupe!Toutefois, non pas ce que je veux, mais ce que tu veux.

37 Et il vint vers les disciples, qu’il trouva endormis, et il dit à Pierre: Simon, tu dors! Tu n’as pu veiller une heure!

38 Veillez et priez, afin que vous ne tombiez pas en tentation;l’esprit est bien disposé, mais la chair est faible.

39 Il s’éloigna de nouveau, et fit la même prière.

40 Il revint, et les trouva encore endormis; car leurs yeux étaient appesantis. Ils ne surent que lui répondre.
