Matthew 26:39 Douay-Rheims

And going a little further, he fell upon his face, praying, and saying: My Father, if it be possible, let this chalice pass from me. Nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

(de Cons. Ev. iii. 4.) And that none might think that He limited His Father’s power, He said not, If thou canst do it, but If it may be, or, If it be possible; as much as to say, If thou wilt. For whatever God wills can be done, as Luke expresses more plainly; for he says not, If it be possible, but If thou wilt.
