*
And as they were eating ,
Jesus took bread ,
and blessed it ,
and broke it ,
and gave it to the disciples ,
and said ,
Take ,
eat ;
this is my body .
*
And he took the cup ,
and gave thanks ,
and gave it to them ,
saying ,
Drink of it ,
all of you ;
*
For this is my blood of the covenant ,
which is shed for many for the forgiveness of sins .
*
But I say to you ,
I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine ,
until that day when I drink it anew with you in my Father '
s kingdom .
*
And when they had sung a hymn ,
they went out to the mount of Olives .
*
Then Jesus said to them ,
This night all of you shall fall away because of me :
for it is written ,
I will strike the shepherd ,
and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered .
*
But after I have risen ,
I will go before you into Galilee .
*
Peter answered and said to him ,
Though all fall away because of you ,
yet I will never fall away .
*
Jesus said to him ,
Truly I say to you ,
That this night ,
before the cock crows ,
you shall deny me thrice .
*
Peter said to him ,
Though I die with you ,
yet I will not deny you .
And all the disciples said the same .
