* And it came to pass (5633 ), when Jesus had finished (5656 ) all these sayings , he said (5627 ) unto his disciples , * Ye know (5758 ) that after two days is (5736 ) the feast of the passover , and the Son of man is betrayed (5743 ) to be crucified (5683 ). * Then assembled together (5681 ) the chief priests , and the scribes , and the elders of the people , unto the palace of the high priest , who was called (5746 ) Caiaphas , * And consulted (5668 ) that they might take (5661 ) Jesus by subtilty , and kill (5725 ) him . * But they said (5707 ), Not on the feast day , lest there be (5638 ) an uproar among the people . * Now when Jesus was (5637 ) in Bethany , in the house of Simon the leper , * There came (5627 ) unto him a woman having (5723 ) an alabaster box of very precious ointment , and poured it (5656 ) on his head , as he sat (5740 ) at meat . * But when his disciples saw (5631 ) it , they had indignation (5656 ), saying (5723 ), To what purpose is this waste ? * For this ointment might (5711 ) have been sold (5683 ) for much , and given (5683 ) to the poor . * When Jesus understood (5631 ) it , he said (5627 ) unto them , Why trouble ye (5719 ) the woman ? for she hath wrought (5662 ) a good work upon me . * For ye have (5719 ) the poor always with you ; but me ye have (5719 ) not always . * For in that she (5625 ) hath poured (5631 ) this ointment on my body , she did (5656 ) it for my burial (5658 ). * Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached (5686 ) in the whole world , there shall also this , that this woman (5625 ) hath done (5656 ), be told (5701 ) for a memorial of her . * Then one of the twelve , called (5746 ) Judas Iscariot , went (5679 ) unto the chief priests , * And said (5627 ) unto them , What will ye (5719 ) give (5629 ) me , and I will deliver (5692 ) him unto you ? And they covenanted (5627 ) with him for thirty pieces of silver . * And from that time he sought (5707 ) opportunity to betray (5632 ) him . * Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came (5656 ) to Jesus , saying (5723 ) unto him , Where wilt thou (5719 ) that we prepare (5661 ) for thee to eat (5629 ) the passover ? * And he said (5627 ), Go (5720 ) into the city to such a man , and say (5628 ) unto him , The Master saith (5719 ), My time is (5748 ) at hand ; I will keep (5719 ) the passover at thy house with my disciples . * And the disciples did (5656 ) as Jesus had appointed (5656 ) them ; and they made ready (5656 ) the passover . * Now when the even was come (5637 ), he sat down (5711 ) with the twelve . * And as they did eat (5723 ), he said (5627 ), Verily I say (5719 ) unto you , that one of you shall betray (5692 ) me . * And they were exceeding sorrowful (5746 ), and began (5662 ) every one of them to say (5721 ) unto him , Lord , is (5748 ) it I ? * And he answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ), He that dippeth (5660 ) his hand with me in the dish , the same shall betray (5692 ) me . * The Son of man goeth (5719 ) as it is written (5769 ) of him : but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed (5743 )! it had been (5713 ) good for that man if he had not been born (5681 ). * Then Judas , which betrayed (5723 ) him , answered (5679 ) and said (5627 ), Master , is (5748 ) it I ? He said (5719 ) unto him , Thou hast said (5627 ). * And as they were eating (5723 ), Jesus took (5631 ) bread , and blessed (5660 ) it , and brake (5656 ) it , and gave (5707 ) it to the disciples , and said (5627 ), Take (5628 ), eat (5628 ); this is (5748 ) my body . * And he took (5631 ) the cup , and gave thanks (5660 ), and gave (5656 ) it to them , saying (5723 ), Drink ye (5628 ) all of it ;
