Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.
And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.
¶ Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.
And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.
And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.
And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.
¶ Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.
And he sent Peter and John, saying, \+w Go|strong="G4198"\+w* \+w and prepare|strong="G2090"\+w* \+w us|strong="G2254"\+w* \+w the passover|strong="G3957"\+w*, \+w that|strong="G2443"\+w* \+w we may eat|strong="G5315"\+w*.*
And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?
And he said unto them, \+w Behold|strong="G2400"\+w*, \+w when ye|strong="G5216"\+w* \+w are entered|strong="G1525"\+w* \+w into|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w the city|strong="G4172"\+w*, \+w there shall|strong="G4876"\+w* \+w a man|strong="G0444"\+w* \+w meet|strong="G4876"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5213"\+w*, \+w bearing|strong="G0941"\+w* \+w a pitcher|strong="G2765"\+w* \+w of water|strong="G5204"\+w*; \+w follow|strong="G0190"\+w* \+w him|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w into|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w the house|strong="G3614"\+w* \+w where|strong="G3757"\+w* \+w he entereth in|strong="G1531"\+w*.*
\+w And|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w ye shall say|strong="G2046"\+w* \+w unto the goodman|strong="G3617"\+w* \+w of the house|strong="G3614"\+w*, \+w The Master|strong="G1320"\+w* \+w saith|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w unto thee|strong="G4671"\+w*, \+w Where|strong="G4226"\+w* \+w is|strong="G2076"\+w* \+w the guestchamber|strong="G2646"\+w*, \+w where|strong="G3699"\+w* \+w I shall eat|strong="G5315"\+w* \+w the passover|strong="G3957"\+w* \+w with|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w my|strong="G3450"\+w* \+w disciples|strong="G3101"\+w*?*
\+w And he|strong="G2548"\+w* \+w shall shew|strong="G1166"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5213"\+w* \+w a large|strong="G3173"\+w* \+w upper room|strong="G0508"\+w* \+w furnished|strong="G4766"\+w*: \+w there|strong="G1563"\+w* \+w make ready|strong="G2090"\+w*.*
And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.
And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.
And he said unto them, \+w With desire|strong="G1939"\+w* \+w I have desired|strong="G1937"\+w* \+w to eat|strong="G5315"\+w* \+w this|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w passover|strong="G3957"\+w* \+w with|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5216"\+w* \+w before|strong="G4253"\+w* \+w I|strong="G3165"\+w* \+w suffer|strong="G3958"\+w*:*

And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, \+w Take|strong="G2983"\+w* \+w this|strong="G5124"\+w*, \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w divide|strong="G1266"\+w* \+add it\+add* \+w among yourselves|strong="G1438"\+w*:*
\+w For|strong="G1063"\+w* \+w I say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w unto you|strong="G5213"\+w*, \+w I will|strong="G4095"\+w* \+w not|strong="G3361"\+w* \+w drink|strong="G4095"\+w* \+w of|strong="G0575"\+w* \+w the fruit|strong="G1081"\+w* \+w of the vine|strong="G0288"\+w*, \+w until|strong="G2193"\+w* \+w the kingdom|strong="G0932"\+w* \+w of God|strong="G2316"\+w* \+w shall come|strong="G2064"\+w*.*
¶ And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it*, and gave unto them, saying, \+w This|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w is|strong="G2076"\+w* \+w my|strong="G3450"\+w* \+w body|strong="G4983"\+w* \+w which|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w is given|strong="G1325"\+w* \+w for|strong="G5228"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5216"\+w*: \+w this|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w do|strong="G4160"\+w* \+w in|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w remembrance|strong="G0364"\+w* \+w of me|strong="G1699"\+w*.*
Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, \+w This|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w cup|strong="G4221"\+w* \+add is\+add* \+w the new|strong="G2537"\+w* \+w testament|strong="G1242"\+w* \+w in|strong="G1722"\+w* \+w my|strong="G3450"\+w* \+w blood|strong="G0129"\+w*, \+w which|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w is shed|strong="G1632"\+w* \+w for|strong="G5228"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5216"\+w*.*
¶ \+w But|strong="G4133"\+w*, \+w behold|strong="G2400"\+w*, \+w the hand|strong="G5495"\+w* \+w of him that|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w betrayeth|strong="G3860"\+w* \+w me|strong="G3165"\+w* \+add is\+add* \+w with|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1700"\+w* \+w on|strong="G1909"\+w* \+w the table|strong="G5132"\+w*.*

And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.
¶ And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
And he said unto them, \+w The kings|strong="G0935"\+w* \+w of the Gentiles|strong="G1484"\+w* \+w exercise lordship|strong="G2961"\+w* \+w over them|strong="G0846"\+w*; \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w they that|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w exercise authority upon|strong="G1850"\+w* \+w them|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w are called|strong="G2564"\+w* \+w benefactors|strong="G2110"\+w*.*
