And no one considers within his heart, nor is there perception nor understanding to say, I have burned part of it in the fire; indeed, also I have baked bread on its coals; I have roasted flesh and eaten; and shall I make the rest of it into an abomination? Shall I prostrate myself to a piece of wood?

Assemble yourselves and come; draw near together, you who have escaped from the nations. Those who set up the wood of their graven image, and those that pray to a god that cannot save, they know nothing.

And He came to the disciples and found them asleep, and said to Peter, What? Were you not able to watch with Me one hour?

Watch and pray, that you not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

And He came and found them asleep again, for their eyes were heavy.

Then He came to His disciples and said to them, Sleep on and rest. Behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being delivered into the hands of sinners.

And He said to them, Why do you sleep? Rise and pray, that you do not enter into temptation.
