we go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?"
014:013 So He sent two of His disciples with instructions, saying,
"Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a pitcher
of water: follow him,
014:014 and whatever house he enters, tell the master of the house,
`The Rabbi asks, Where is my room where I can eat the Passover
with my disciples?'
014:015 Then he will himself show you a large room upstairs, ready furnished:
there make preparation for us."
014:016 So the disciples went out and came to the city, and found everything
just as He had told them; and they got the Passover ready.
014:017 When it was evening, He came with the Twelve.
014:018 And while they were at table Jesus said, "I solemnly tell you
that one of you will betray me--one who is eating with me."
014:019 They were filled with sorrow, and began asking Him, one by one,
"Not I, is it?"
014:020 "It is one of the Twelve," He replied; "he who is dipping
his fingers in the dish with me.
014:021 For the Son of Man is going His way as it is written about Him;
but alas for the man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed!
It had been a happy thing for that man, had he never been born."
014:022 Also during the meal He took a Passover biscuit, blessed it,
and broke it. He then gave it to them, saying, "Take this,
it is my body."
014:023 Then He took the cup, gave thanks, and handed it to them,
and they all of them drank from it.
014:024 "This is my blood," He said, "which is to be poured out on
behalf of many--the blood which makes the Covenant sure.
014:025 I solemnly tell you that never again will I taste the produce
of the vine till I shall drink the new wine in the Kingdom of God."
