Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me on this night, for it is written: 'I will strike the Shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Behold, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat.

But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers."

"These things I have spoken to you, so that you should not be made to stumble.

Indeed a time is coming, and now has come, that you will be scattered, each to his own, and you will leave Me alone. And yet I am not alone, because the Father is with Me.

At my first defense no one stood with me, but all forsook me. May it not be reckoned to them.

Awake, O sword, against My shepherds, and against the man who is My citizen, says the Lord Almighty; strike the shepherds, and draw out the sheep: and I will bring My hand upon the little ones.
