*
Now on the first day of Unleavened Bread ,
when they killed the Passover lamb ,
his disciples said to him , »
Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover ?«
*
And he sent two of his disciples ,
and said to them , »
Go into the city ,
and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you ;
follow him .
*
And wherever he enters ,
say to the owner of the house ,
The Teacher says ,
where is my guest room ,
where I may eat the Passover with my disciples ?
*
He will show you a large upper room ,
furnished and ready ;
make preparations for us there .«
*
So the disciples set out and went to the city ,
and found it just as he had told them ;
and they prepared the Passover .
*
And when it was evening he came with the twelve .
*
And as they were at table eating ,
Jesus said , »
Truly ,
I say to you ,
one of you will betray me ,
one who is eating with me .«
*
They began to be sorrowful ,
and to say to him one by one , »
Is it I ?«
*
He said to them , »
It is one of the twelve ,
one who dips bread into the dish with me .
*
For the Son of Man goes just as it is written of him ,
but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed !
It would have been better for that man if he had not been born .«
*
And as they were eating ,
Jesus took bread ,
blessed and broke it ,
and gave it to them and said , »
Take ;
this is my body .«
*
Then he took the cup ,
and when he had given thanks he gave it to them ,
and they all drank from it .
*
And he said to them , »
This is my blood of the covenant ,
which is poured out for many .
*
Truly ,
I say to you ,
I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God .«
*
And when they had sung a hymn ,
they went out to the Mount of Olives .
*
And Jesus said to them , »
You will all fall away ;
for it is written :
*
But after I have been raised ,
I will go before you to Galilee .«
*
Peter said to him , »
Even if all fall away ,
I will not .«
*
Jesus said to him , »
Truly ,
I say to you that this very night ,
before the rooster crows twice ,
you will deny me three times .«
*
But he spoke more vehemently , »
If I have to die with you ,
I will not deny you !«
And they all said the same .
