| Matthew 26:34 | Jesus said to him (autō | αὐτῷ | dat sg masc3rd), “I tell you the truth, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” |
| Matthew 26:35 | Peter said to him (autō | αὐτῷ | dat sg masc3rd), “Even though I must die with you, I will never deny you!” And all the disciples said the same. |
| Matthew 26:36 | Then Jesus went with them (autōn | αὐτῶν | gen pl masc3rd) to a place called Gethsemane and he said to his disciples, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.” |
| Matthew 26:38 | Then he said to them (autois | αὐτοῖς | dat pl masc3rd), “My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, to the point of death; remain here and keep watch with me.” |
| Matthew 26:39 | And going a short distance beyond them, he threw face himself (autou | αὐτοῦ | gen sg masc3rd) face, to the ground, praying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me! Yet not as I will but as you will.” |
| Matthew 26:40 | Then he went to the disciples and found them (autous | αὐτούς | acc pl masc3rd) sleeping. He said to Peter, “So, could you men not keep watch with me for a single hour? |
| Matthew 26:42 | Once again he went away and prayed, saying, “My Father, if this cannot pass unless I drink it (auto | αὐτό | acc sg neut3rd), may your will be done.” |
| Matthew 26:43 | Then he returned and found them (autous | αὐτούς | acc pl masc3rd) sleeping, for their (autōn | αὐτῶν | gen pl masc3rd) eyes were heavy. |
| Matthew 26:44 | So he left them (autous | αὐτούς | acc pl masc3rd) and went away, and for the third time prayed again using the same (auton | αὐτόν | acc sg masc) words. |
| Matthew 26:45 | Then he returned to his disciples and said to them (autois | αὐτοῖς | dat pl masc3rd), “Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? Look, the hour has come, and the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of sinners. |

| Matthew 26:49 | Without hesitation Judas went up to Jesus and said, “Greetings, Rabbi!” and kissed him (auton | αὐτόν | acc sg masc3rd). |
| Matthew 26:50 | Jesus said to him (autō | αὐτῷ | dat sg masc3rd), “Comrade, do what you came to do.” Then they came forward, laid hands on Jesus and took him (auton | αὐτόν | acc sg masc3rd) into custody. |
| Matthew 26:51 | But one of those with Jesus stretched out his hand, drew his (autou | αὐτοῦ | gen sg masc3rd) sword, and struck the slave of the high priest, cutting off his (autou | αὐτοῦ | gen sg masc3rd) ear. |
| Matthew 26:52 | Then Jesus said to him (autō | αὐτῷ | dat sg masc3rd), “Put your sword back into its (autēs | αὐτῆς | gen sg fem3rd) place! For all who draw the sword will die by the sword. |
