About
"And going a little farther, he fell on his face and prayed, saying 'O my Father if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; yet not as I will, but as thou wilt.'"
"And these appeared to him an angel from heaven strengthening him. And being in an agony, he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down on the ground."
Matthew 26:39, Luke 22:43–44
