Luke 22:1-12 ▼

1 Now the feast of unleaven'd bread, which is call'd the passover,

2 being nigh, the chief priests consulted with the Scribes, how they might put Jesus to death; for they were afraid of the people.

3 now satan had inspired Judas surnam'd Iscariot, one of the twelve, what to do.

4 accordingly he went and conferr'd with the chief priests and officers of the temple, about the method of seizing him.

5 they were pleas'd with his proposal, and agreed to give him a certain sum.

6 Judas accepted the bargain, and sought an opportunity to secure him, without alarming the people.

7 The day of unleaven'd bread being come, when the paschal-lamb was to be sacrific'd,

8 Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, go, and make provision for our eating the paschal-lamb.

9 they ask'd him, where would you have us prepare it?

10 he answered, when you are in the city, you will meet a man with a pitcher of water; follow him to the house, where he goes in:

11 and say to the man of the house, our master sent to ask for a room, where he may eat the passover with his disciples.

12 and he will show you a large upper room ready fitted: there prepare the supper.
