Luke 22:1-32 ▼

1 The feaste of swete breed drue nye whiche is called ester

2 and the hye prestes and Scribes sought how to kyll him but they feared the people.

3 Then entred Satan into Iudas whose syr name was Iscariot (which was of the nombre of the twelve)

4 and he went his waye and comuned with the hye Prestes and officers how he might betraye him to them.

5 And they were glad: and promysed to geve him money.

6 And he consented and sought oportunite to betraye him vnto them when the people were awaye.

7 Then came ye daye of swete breed when of necessite the esterlambe must be offered.

8 And he sent Peter and Iohn sayinge: Goo and prepare vs the ester lambe that we maye eate.

9 They sayde to him. Where wilt thou yt we prepare?

10 And he sayd vnto them. Beholde when ye be entred into the cite ther shall a man mete you bearinge a pitcher of water him folowe into the same housse yt he entreth in

11 and saye vnto ye good ma of ye housse. The master sayeth vnto ye: where is ye gest chamber where I shall eate myne ester lambe wt my disciples?

12 And he shall shew you a greate parloure paved. Ther make redy.

13 And they wet and foude as he had sayd vnto the: and made redy ye ester lambe.

14 And when the houre was come he sate doune and the twelve Apostles with him.

15 And he sayde vnto them: I have inwardly desyred to eate this ester lambe with you before yt I suffre.

16 For I saye vnto you: hence forthe I will no t eate of it eny moore vntill it be fulfilled in the kingdome of God.

17 And he toke the cup and gave thankes and sayde. Take this and devyde it amonge you.

18 For I saye vnto you: I will not drinke of the frute of the vyne vntill the kingdome of God be come.

19 And he toke breed gave thankes and gave to them sayinge: This is my body which is geven for you. This do in the remembraunce of me.

20 Lykewyse also when they had supped he toke the cup sayinge: This cup is the newe testament in my bloud which shall for you be shedde.

21 Yet beholde the honde of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

22 And ye sonne of man goeth as it is appoynted: But wo be to yt man by whom he is betrayed.

23 And they began to enquyre amoge them selves which of them it shuld be that shuld do that.

24 And ther was a stryfe amoge the which of them shuld be taken for the greatest.

25 And he sayde vnto them: the kynges of the getyls raygne over them and they that beare rule over them are called gracious lordes.

26 But ye shall not be so. But he that is greatest amonge you shalbe as the yongest: and he that is chefe shalbe as the minister.

27 For whether is greater he that sitteth at meate: or he that serveth? Is not he that sitteth at meate? And I am amoge you as he that ministreth.

28 Ye are they which have bidden with me in my temptacions.

29 And I apoynt vnto you a kyngdome as my father hath appoynted to me:

30 that ye maye eate and drynke at my table in my kyngdome and sit on seates and iudge the twelve tribes of Israell.

31 And the Lorde sayde: Simon Simon beholde Satan hath desired you to sifte you as it were wheate:

32 bnt I have prayed for the that thy faith fayle not. And when thou arte converted strengthe thy brethre.
