17

Now on the first [day] of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where wilt thou that we make ready for thee to eat the passover?

18

And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Teacher saith, My time is at hand I keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.

19

And the disciples did as Jesus appointed them and they made ready the passover.

20

Now when even was come, he was sitting at meat with the twelve disciples

21

and as they were eating, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22

And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began to say unto him every one, Is it I, Lord?

23

And he answered and said, He that dipped his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

24

The Son of man goeth, even as it is written of him: but woe unto that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had not been born.

25

And Judas, who betrayed him, answered and said, Is it I, Rabbi? He saith unto him, Thou hast said.

26

And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it and he gave to the disciples, and said, Take, eat this is my body.

27

And he took a cup, and gave thanks, and gave to them, saying, Drink ye all of it

28

for this is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many unto remission of sins.

29

But I say unto you, I shall not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

30

And when they had sung a hymn, they went out unto the mount of Olives.
