¹⁸But Jesus said: Go ye into the city to a certain man and say to him: The master saith, My time is near at hand. With thee I make the pasch with my disciples.

¹⁹And the disciples did as Jesus appointed to them: and they prepared the pasch.

²⁰But when it was evening, he sat down with his twelve disciples.

²¹And whilst they were eating, he said: Amen I say to you that one of you is about to betray me.

²²And they being very much troubled began every one to say: Is it I, Lord?

²³But he answering said: He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, he shall betray me.

²⁴The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him. But woe to that man by whom the Son of man shall be betrayed. It were better for him, if that man had not been born.

²⁵And Judas that betrayed him answering, said: Is it I, Rabbi? He saith to him: Thou hast said it.

²⁶And whilst they were at supper, Jesus took bread and blessed and broke and gave to his disciples and said: Take ye and eat. This is my body.

²⁷And taking the chalice, he gave thanks and gave to them, saying: Drink ye all of this.

²⁸For this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many unto remission of sins.

²⁹And I say to you, I will not drink from henceforth of this fruit of the vine until that day when I shall drink it with you new in the kingdom of my Father.
