Matthew 26:42 in Context — Matthew 26

40 Et il vint vers les disciples, qu’il trouva endormis, et il dit à Pierre: Vous n’avez donc pu veiller une heure avec moi!

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

42 Il s’éloigna une seconde fois, et pria ainsi: Mon Père, s’il n’est pas possible que cette coupe s’éloigne sans que je la boive, que ta volonté soit faite!

43 Il revint, et les trouva encore endormis; car leurs yeux étaient appesantis.

44 Il les quitta, et, s’éloignant, il pria pour la troisième fois, répétant les mêmes paroles.
