THE same night in which he was betrayed, the Lord Jesus took bread, and gave thanks, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to his disciples, and said,
As they sat and did eat, Jesus said,
¶But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table. And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!
I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit; and testified,
The disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake. They were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto Jesus, one by one, Lord, is it I? and another, Is it I? He answered,
The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.
Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one whom Jesus loved. † Simon Peter beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom
He dipped the sop: he gave it to Judas Iscariot: then said unto him,
Judas said, Master, is it I? Jesus said unto him,
Judas went immediately out: and it was night. When he was gone, Jesus said,
Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, * so now I say to you, Whither I go, ye cannot come.
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
¶Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered,
Peter said, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake. Jesus answered,
¶There was a strife among the disciples, which of them should be accounted the greatest. And Jesus said unto them,
For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.
Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. And I
¶And the Lord said,
And Simon said, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. And Jesus said,
And he said unto them,
They said, Nothing. Then said Jesus,
For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors.
For the things concerning me have an end.
And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he answered,
When he had supped, Jesus after the same manner took the cup, and when he had given thanks, gave it to them, saying,
And they all drank of it. And he said unto them,
Verily I say unto you, I will drink henceforth no more of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of God, my Father's kingdom.
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
