'This cup.' - The words appear in Matthew 26:39 -
"And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou [wilt]."
This cup was the cup of the wrath of God for the punishment of the sins of the whole world which Jesus drank for our sakes - "For he hath made him [to be] sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." (2 Corinthians 5:21). He then went willingly to the cross.

Why was Jesus in such agony in the garden of gethsemane?
There is no record of Jesus crying in Gethsemane. Though the Bible says he cried many times while praying - Hebrews 5.7Perhaps your question related to him sweating blood, in:Luke 22.44. And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.This happened while he was praying, and because, as he said to Peter James and John who he took with him:And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: (Mark 14.34.)And this was because he did not want to go to the cross, and asked his Heavenly Father if it could be avoided; thus:And he said, Abba, Father, all things [are] possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt. (Mark 14.36)
