Luke 22:1-22 ▼

1 And the feast of the unleavened bread, called the passover, was nigh.

2 And the chief priests and scribes were seeking how they might kill Him; for they feared the people.

3 And Satan entered into Judas called Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

4 And having gone away, he spoke with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might betray Him to them.

5 And they rejoiced, and promised to give him money.

6 And he promised them, and was seeking an opportunity to deliver Him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

7 And the day of the unleavened bread came, in which it behooved to slay the passover.

8 And He sent Peter and John, saying, Going prepare for us the passover, in order that we may eat it.

9 And they said to Him, Where do you wish that we may prepare it?

10 And He said to them, Behold, you having come into the city, a man will meet you carrying a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he is going.

11 And say to the landlord, The Teacher says to thee, Where is the guest-chamber, where I may eat the passover with my disciples?

12 And he will show you a large upper room furnished: there prepare.

13 And having gone away, they found as He told them; and prepared the passover.

14 And when the hour arrived, He sat down and the apostles along with Him.

15 And He said to them, I desired with desire to eat this passover with you before I suffer: for I say to you,

16 I eat this no more, until it may be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

17 And receiving the cup, having given thanks, He said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves;

18 for I say to you, I shall from now drink no more from the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God may come.

19 And taking bread, blessing it, He broke it, and gave it to them, saying, This is my body given for you: do this in remembrance of me.

20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out in your behalf.

21 Moreover behold, the hand of the one betraying me is with me at the table.

22 Indeed the Son of man goes, according to that which has been appointed: but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!
