Matthew 26:17–29
17 aNow on the first day of bUnleavened Bread the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do You want us to prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
18 And He said, “Go into the city to aa certain man, and say to him, ‘The Teacher says, “bMy time is near; I am to keep the Passover at your house with My disciples.” ’ ”
19 The disciples did as Jesus had directed them; and they prepared the Passover.
20 aNow when evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples.
21 As they were eating, He said, “aTruly I say to you that one of you will betray Me.”
22 Being deeply grieved, they 1each one began to say to Him, “Surely not I, Lord?”
23 And He answered, “aHe who dipped his hand with Me in the bowl is the one who will betray Me.
24 “The Son of Man is to go, ajust as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! bIt would have been good 1for that man if he had not been born.”
25 And aJudas, who was betraying Him, said, “Surely it is not I, bRabbi?” Jesus * said to him, “cYou have said it yourself.”
26 aWhile they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and 1bafter a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take, eat; this is My body.”
27 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you;
28 for athis is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for bmany for forgiveness of sins.
29 “But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father’s kingdom.”
