Luke 22:1-13 ▼

1 Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread, which is called the Passover, was approaching.

2 The chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they might put Him to death; for they were afraid of the people.

3 And Satan entered into Judas who was called Iscariot, belonging to the number of the twelve.

4 And he went away and discussed with the chief priests and officers 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 apart from the crowd.

7 Then came the [first] day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover [lamb] had to be sacrificed.

8 And Jesus sent Peter 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.
