Luke 22:1-22 ▼

1 Now the feast of vnleauened bread drewe neere, which is called the Passeouer.

2 And the hie Priests and Scribes sought how they might kill him: for they feared the people.

3 Then entred Satan into Iudas, who was called Iscariot, and was of the nomber of the twelue.

4 And he went his way, and communed with the hie Priestes and captaines, how he might betray him to them.

5 So they were glad, and agreed to giue him money.

6 And he consented, and sought opportunitie to betraye him vnto them, when the people were away.

7 Then came the day of vnleauened bread, when the Passeouer must be sacrificed.

8 And he sent Peter and Iohn, saying, Go and prepare vs the Passeouer, that we may eate it.

9 And they saide to him, Where wilt thou, that we prepare it?

10 Then he said vnto them, Beholde, when ye be entred into the citie, there shall a man meete you, bearing a pitcher of water: folowe him into the house that he entreth in,

11 And say vnto the good man of the house, The Master saith vnto thee, Where is the lodging where I shall eate my Passeouer with my disciples?

12 Then he shall shewe you a great hie chamber trimmed: there make it ready.

13 So they went, and found as he had said vnto them, and made readie the Passeouer.

14 And when the houre was come, hee sate downe, and the twelue Apostles with him.

15 Then he saide vnto them, I haue earnestly desired to eate this Passeouer with you, before I suffer.

16 For I say vnto you, Hencefoorth I will not eate of it any more, vntill it bee fulfilled in the kingdome of God.

17 And hee tooke the cup, and gaue thankes, and said, Take this, and deuide it among you,

18 For I say vnto you, I will not drinke of the fruite of the vine, vntill the kingdome of God be come.

19 And he tooke bread, and when he had giuen thankes, he brake it, and gaue to them, saying, This is my body, which is giuen for you: doe this in the remembrance of me.

20 Likewise also after supper he tooke the cup, saying, This cup is that newe Testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

21 Yet beholde, the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table.

22 And truely the Sonne of man goeth as it is appointed: but woe be to that man, by whom he is betrayed.
