Luke:22:7-38
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Then came the day of unleavened bread ,
when the passover must be killed .
*
And he sent Peter and John ,
saying ,
Go and prepare us the passover ,
that we may eat .
*
And they said unto him ,
Where wilt thou that we prepare ?
*
And he said unto them ,
Behold ,
when ye are entered into the city ,
there shall a man meet you ,
bearing a pitcher of water ;
follow him into the house where he entereth in .
*
And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house ,
The Master saith unto thee ,
Where is the guestchamber ,
where I shall eat the passover with my disciples ?
*
And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished :
there make ready .
*
And they went ,
and found as he had said unto them :
and they made ready the passover .
*
And when the hour was come ,
he sat down ,
and the twelve apostles with him .
*
And he said unto them ,
With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer :
*
For I say unto you ,
I will not any more eat thereof ,
until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God .
*
And he took the cup ,
and gave thanks ,
and said ,
Take this ,
and divide it among yourselves :
*
For I say unto you ,
I will not drink of the fruit of the vine ,
until the kingdom of God shall come .
*
And he took bread ,
and gave thanks ,
and brake it ,
and gave unto them ,
saying ,
This is my body which is given for you :
this do in remembrance of me .
*
Likewise also the cup after supper ,
saying ,
This cup is the new testament in my blood ,
which is shed for you .
*
But ,
behold ,
the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table .
*
And truly the Son of man goeth ,
as it was determined :
but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed !
*
And they began to enquire among themselves ,
which of them it was that should do this thing .
*
And there was also a strife among them ,
which of them should be accounted the greatest .
*
And he said unto them ,
The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them ;
and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors .
*
But ye shall not be so :
but he that is greatest among you ,
let him be as the younger ;
and he that is chief ,
as he that doth serve .
*
For whether is greater ,
he that sitteth at meat ,
or he that serveth ?
is not he that sitteth at meat ?
but I am among you as he that serveth .
*
Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations .
*
And I appoint unto you a kingdom ,
as my Father hath appointed unto me ;
*
That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom ,
and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel .
*
And the Lord said ,
Simon ,
Simon ,
behold ,
Satan hath desired to have you ,
that he may sift you as wheat :
*
But I have prayed for thee ,
that thy faith fail not :
and when thou art converted ,
strengthen thy brethren .
*
And he said unto him ,
Lord ,
I am ready to go with thee ,
both into prison ,
and to death .
*
And he said ,
I tell thee ,
Peter ,
the cock shall not crow this day ,
before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me .
*
And he said unto them ,
When I sent you without purse ,
and scrip ,
and shoes ,
lacked ye any thing ?
And they said ,
Nothing .
*
Then said he unto them ,
But now ,
he that hath a purse ,
let him take it ,
and likewise his scrip :
and he that hath no sword ,
let him sell his garment ,
and buy one .
*
For I say unto you ,
that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me ,
And he was reckoned among the transgressors :
for the things concerning me have an end .
*
And they said ,
Lord ,
behold ,
here are two swords .
And he said unto them ,
It is enough .
