Luke 22:4-24

⁴Judas went to the chief priests and captains and discussed with them how he would betray Jesus to them.

⁵They were glad, and agreed to give him money.

⁶He consented, and looked for an opportunity to deliver him to them away from the crowd.

⁷Then came the day of unleavened bread, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

⁸So Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare for us the Passover meal, so that we may eat it.”

⁹They said to him, “Where do you want us to make preparations?”

¹⁰He answered them, “Listen, when you have entered the city, a man bearing a pitcher of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he goes into.

¹¹Then say to the master of the house, 'The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room, where I will eat the Passover with my disciples?”'

¹²He will show you a large furnished upper room. Make the preparations there.”

¹³So they went, and found everything as he had said to them. Then they prepared the Passover meal.

¹⁴When the time came, he sat down with the apostles.

¹⁵Then he said to them, “I have greatly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.

¹⁶For I say to you, I will not eat it again, until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”

¹⁷Then Jesus took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he said, “Take this, and share it among yourselves.

¹⁸For I say to you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine again until the kingdom of God comes.”

¹⁹Then he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, and gave to them, saying, “This is my body which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”

²⁰He took the cup in the same way after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.

²¹But pay attention. The one who betrays me is with me at the table.

²²For the Son of Man indeed goes as it has been determined. But woe to that man through whom he is betrayed!”

²³They began to discuss among themselves which one of them it might be who would do this.

²⁴Then there arose also a quarrel among them about which of them was considered to be greatest.
