GERMAN (original)
Evangelist (T), Jesus (B)

[Evangelist]
Und da sie den Lobgesang gesprochen hatten, gingen sie hinaus an den Ölberg. Da sprach Jesus zu ihnen:

[Jesus]
In dieser Nacht werdet ihr euch alle ärgern an mir. Denn es stehet geschrieben: Ich werde den Hirten schlagen, und die Schafe der Herde werden sich zerstreuen. Wenn ich aber auferstehe, will ich vor euch hingehen in Galiläam.
ENGLISH (translation)

(Evangelist)
But after the song of praise had been recited, they went out to the Mount of Olives. And there Jesus said to them:

(Jesus)
In this same night ye will all become annoyed for my sake. For it standeth in the scripture: I shall strike down then the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will by themselves be scattered. When, however, I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.
