　　The Last Dinner

Jesus spent his last few hours of liberty quietly in thesuburb of Bethany. It was the day of Passover. TheJews observed this feast by eating roast lamb andunleavened bread.

Jesus asked his disciples to go to town and reservea room in one of the smaller inns and order a dinnerthat they might all be together.

When evening came, Judas, looking bland3 and innocent, left the house together with theothers. They went down the Mount of Olives and entered the city and found that everythingwas ready. They took their seats around one long table and began to eat.

But it was not a cheerful meal. They felt the dread of those coming events which already werecasting their terrible shadow over the small group of faithful friends.

Jesus spoke very little. The others sat in gloomy silence. At last Peter could stand it nolonger, and he blurted4 out what was in everybody’s mind . “Master, ”he said,“we want toknow. Do you have reason to suspect one of us?” Softly Jesus answered, “ Yes. One amongyou who is now sitting at this table will bring disaster upon us all. ” Then all the disciples got upand crowded around him. They protested their innocence. At that moment Judas slippedquietly out of the room. They now all knew what was to come. They could no longer remain inthat little room. They needed fresh air, and they left the inn and walked out of the gate andwent back to the Mount of Olives and opened the wicket to a garden which a friend had toldthem to use whenever they wished to be alone . It was called Gethsemane5 , after an old oil-press which stood in a corner. After a while Jesus walked away from the little group. But threeof the disciples who were closest to him, followed at a distance.

He turned around and bade them wait and watch while he prayed.

The time had come for a final decision. Escape was still possible , but escape would mean asilent confession of guilt and defeat for his ideas.

He was alone among the silent trees and fought his last great battle . He was a man in thefullness of his years. Life still held a great promise. Death, once his enemies captured him,would come in a most terrible form. He made his choice . He stayed. He went back to hisfriends. And behold! They were fast asleep . A moment later, the whole garden was in anuproar. Led by Judas, the guards of the Sanhedrin rushed upon the prophet. Judas was attheir head. He threw his arms around his master and kissed him. 6 That was the sign for whichthe soldiers had waited. At that moment, Peter realized what was happening.

　　參考譯文

　　最後的晚餐

耶穌在貝瑟尼郊區平靜地度過了生命中最後幾小時的自由行動時間。那天是逾越節,猶太人吃烤羔羊肉和無酵餅來慶祝這一節日。

耶穌讓門徒進城到一家小酒館訂了房間及晚餐, 他們將在那裏聚會。

夜色降臨, 猶大若無其事地和其他人一起離開了家。他們下了橄欖山, 進了城, 發現一切均已備好。他們圍着一張長桌坐了下來, 然後開始用餐。

可這並不是一頓讓人感到愉快的晚餐。即將發生的事早已在這一小羣忠實的教友中 間投下了可怕的陰影, 他們感到了恐懼。

耶穌沒怎麼説話。其他人憂鬱且安靜地坐着。

最後, 彼得再也無法忍受, 脱口道出了大家的心聲。 “ 老師, ”他説,“ 我們想知道, 您是否有充分的理由懷疑我們中間的一個? ” 耶穌輕聲地回答:“ 是的。現在坐在這張桌子旁的, 你們中間的一人將給我們大家帶來 災難。” 隨後, 所有的門徒都站起來圍在了他的四周, 聲辯各自的清白。 就在那一刻, 猶大悄悄溜出了房間。 這下他們都知道要發生什麼事了。他們再也無法呆在那個小房間裏了。他們需要呼吸一些新鮮的空氣, 就離開小酒館, 走出大門, 返回橄欖山, 然後打開通往 一個花園的邊門。一個朋友告訴他們, 無論何時只要他們想單獨呆一會, 都可以進那個花園。

那個花園叫客西馬尼, 就在角落裏榨油機的後面。

過了一會兒, 耶穌走開了。和他關係最近的三個門徒在不遠處跟着他。

他轉過身, 命令他的`門徒等待並守護着他做禱告。 做出最後決定的時刻來臨了。雖然他仍有可能逃跑, 但那將意味着默認自己有罪和承 認自己思想的失敗。 他獨自呆在靜悄悄的樹林裏, 作出了生前最英勇的鬥爭。 他正值壯年。生活仍有很多希望。 一旦敵人逮捕了他, 他將以一種很可怕的方式被處死。 他做出了抉擇。他不逃。他回到教友們中間。 看! 他們都睡熟了。 片刻之後, 整個花園一片喧譁。 一羣猶太教公會衞兵在猶大的帶領下, 向這位先知衝過來。 猶大就在最前面。 他摟着老師並親吻了他。 這正是士兵們等待的信號。 那一刻, 彼得終於明白髮生了什麼。
