Luke 22:1–23
1 aNow the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the bPassover, was approaching.
2 The chief priests and the scribes awere seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.
3 aAnd bSatan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, 1belonging to the number of the twelve.
4 And he went away and discussed with the chief priests and aofficers how he might betray Him to them.
5 They were glad and agreed to give him money.
6 So he consented, and began seeking a good opportunity to betray Him to them 1apart from the crowd.
7 aThen came the first day of Unleavened Bread on which bthe Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.
8 And Jesus sent aPeter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, so that we may eat it.”
9 They said to Him, “Where do You want us to prepare it?”
10 And He said to them, “When you have entered the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house that he enters.
11 “And you shall say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room in which I may eat the Passover with My disciples?” ’
12 “And he will show you a large, furnished upper room; prepare it there.”
13 And they left and found everything just as He had told them; and they prepared the Passover.
14 aWhen the hour had come, He reclined at the table, and bthe apostles with Him.
15 And He said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer;
16 for I say to you, I shall never again eat it auntil it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
17 aAnd when He had taken a cup and bgiven thanks, He said, “Take this and share it among yourselves;
18 for aI say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine from now on until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 And when He had taken some bread and agiven thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body which is given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”
20 And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup which is apoured out for you is the bnew covenant in My blood.
21 “aBut behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with 1Mine on the table.
22 “For indeed, the Son of Man is going aas it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”
23 And they began to discuss among themselves which one of them it might be who was going to do this thing.
