Tristis est anima mea usque ad mortem: sustinete hic, et vigilate mecum: nunc videbitis turbam, quæ circumdabit me: Vos fugam capietis, et ego vadam immolari pro vobis. Ecce appropinquat hora, et Filius hominis tradetur in manus peccatorum.

La mia anima è triste fino alla morte: sostate qui e vegliate con me: presto vedrete una folla che mi circonderà. Voi fuggirete e io andrò ad immolarmi per voi. Ecco, si avvicina l'ora e il Figlio dell'uomo sarà consegnato alle mani dei peccatori.
