* After two days was the feast of the passover , and of unleavened bread : and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft , and put him to death . * But they said , Not on the feast day , lest there be an uproar of the people . * And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper , as he sat at meat , there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious ; and she brake the box , and poured it on his head . * And there were some that had indignation within themselves , and said , Why was this waste of the ointment made ? * For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence , and have been given to the poor . And they murmured against her . * And Jesus said , Let her alone ; why trouble ye her ? she hath wrought a good work on me . * For ye have the poor with you always , and whensoever ye will ye may do them good : but me ye have not always . * She hath done what she could : she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying . * Verily I say unto you , Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world , this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her . * And Judas Iscariot , one of the twelve , went unto the chief priests , to betray him unto them . * And when they heard it , they were glad , and promised to give him money . And he sought how he might conveniently betray him . * And the first day of unleavened bread , when they killed the passover , his disciples said unto him , Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover ? * And he sendeth forth two of his disciples , and saith unto them , Go ye into the city , and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water : follow him . * And wheresoever he shall go in , say ye to the goodman of the house , The Master saith , Where is the guestchamber , where I shall eat the passover with my disciples ? * And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared : there make ready for us . * And his disciples went forth , and came into the city , and found as he had said unto them : and they made ready the passover . * And in the evening he cometh with the twelve . * And as they sat and did eat , Jesus said , Verily I say unto you , One of you which eateth with me shall betray me . * And they began to be sorrowful , and to say unto him one by one , Is it I ? and another said , Is it I ? * And he answered and said unto them , It is one of the twelve , that dippeth with me in the dish . * The Son of man indeed goeth , as it is written of him : but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed ! good were it for that man if he had never been born . * And as they did eat , Jesus took bread , and blessed , and brake it , and gave to them , and said , Take , eat : this is my body . * And he took the cup , and when he had given thanks , he gave it to them : and they all drank of it . * And he said unto them , This is my blood of the new testament , which is shed for many . * Verily I say unto you , I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine , until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God .
