James said, "Why does our dear master thus separate us from one another?"
John replied, "Alas, we are to be witnesses," and Peter continued, "Ye know, brethren, we were the witnesses of his transfiguration on the mountain, but now, what is it that we have to see?"
Slowly Peter, James and John, who were sitting apart, fell asleep.
Jesus having reached the grotto, said, "This hour must come upon me—the hour of darkness. For this it was that I came into the world." Then falling upon his knees he clasped his hands, and looking up to heaven cried, with a great and pitiful voice, "Father, my Father! If it be possible, and with thee all things are possible, let this cup pass from me!" Then Jesus fell upon his face on the ground and remained silent for a while. Then again he rose upon his knees and cried, "Yes, Father, not as I will, but as thou wilt!" Then standing up, he looked toward heaven and slowly returned to the three disciples.
And lo, when he approached he found them asleep. "Simon," he said.
Simon Peter, as in a dream, rubbed his head and said, "Alas, my master."
Jesus said, "Simon, dost thou sleep?"
Peter, rousing himself, said, "Master, here I am."
Jesus said, "Could you not watch with me one hour?"
Peter cried, "O, Master, forgive."
