17 Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover? |
18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples. |
19 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover. |
20 Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve. |
21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me. |
22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I? |
23 And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me. |
24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born. |
25 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said. |
26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body. |
27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it; |
28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. |
29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom. |
30 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives. |
31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad. |
32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee. |
33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended. |
34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. |
35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples. |
