What does Matthew 26:40 mean?

He came back to the disciples and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, 'Couldn't you stay awake with me for even one hour?' Matthew 26:40 - Modern Text Bible

(Jesus finds his friends asleep instead of supporting him. He singles out Peter, disappointed that they couldn't even stay awake for a short time.)
