After two days was the feast of* the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him* to death.

2

But they said, Not on the feast day*, lest there be an uproar of the people.

3

¶ And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it* on his head.

4

And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

5

For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

6

And Jesus said, \+w Let|strong="G0863"\+w* \+w her|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w alone|strong="G0863"\+w*; \+w why|strong="G5101"\+w* \+w trouble ye|strong="G3930"\+w* \+w her|strong="G0846"\+w*? \+w she hath wrought|strong="G2038"\+w* \+w a good|strong="G2570"\+w* \+w work|strong="G2041"\+w* \+w on|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1691"\+w*.*

\+w For|strong="G1063"\+w* \+w ye have|strong="G2192"\+w* \+w the poor|strong="G4434"\+w* \+w with|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w you|strong="G1438"\+w* \+w always|strong="G3842"\+w*, \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w whensoever|strong="G3752"\+w* \+w ye will|strong="G2309"\+w* \+w ye may|strong="G1410"\+w* \+w do|strong="G4160"\+w* \+w them|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w good|strong="G2095"\+w*: \+w but|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1691"\+w* \+w ye have|strong="G2192"\+w* \+w not|strong="G3756"\+w* \+w always|strong="G3842"\+w*.*

8

\+w She|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w hath done|strong="G4160"\+w* \+w what|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w she could|strong="G2192"\+w*: \+w she is come aforehand|strong="G4301"\+w* \+w to|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w anoint|strong="G3462"\+w* \+w my|strong="G3450"\+w* \+w body|strong="G4983"\+w* \+w to the burying|strong="G1780"\+w*.*

9

\+w Verily|strong="G0281"\+w* \+w I say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w unto you|strong="G5213"\+w*, \+w Wheresoever|strong="G3699"\+w* \+w this|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w gospel|strong="G2098"\+w* \+w shall be preached|strong="G2784"\+w* \+w throughout|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w the whole|strong="G3650"\+w* \+w world|strong="G2889"\+w*, \+add this\+add* \+w also|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w that|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w she|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w hath done|strong="G4160"\+w* \+w shall be spoken of|strong="G2980"\+w* \+w for|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w a memorial|strong="G3422"\+w* \+w of her|strong="G0846"\+w*.*

10

¶ And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.

11

And when they heard it*, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

12

¶ And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?

13

And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, \+w Go ye|strong="G5217"\+w* \+w into|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w the city|strong="G4172"\+w*, \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w there shall meet|strong="G0528"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5213"\+w* \+w a man|strong="G0444"\+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*.*

14

\+w And|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w wheresoever|strong="G3699"\+w* \+w he shall go in|strong="G1525"\+w*, \+w say ye|strong="G2036"\+w* \+w to the goodman of the house|strong="G3617"\+w*, \+w The Master|strong="G1320"\+w* \+w saith|strong="G3004"\+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*?*

15

\+w And|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w he|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w will 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* \+add and\+add* \+w prepared|strong="G2092"\+w*: \+w there|strong="G1563"\+w* \+w make ready|strong="G2090"\+w* \+w for us|strong="G2254"\+w*.*

16

And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

17

And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.

18

And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, \+w Verily|strong="G0281"\+w* \+w I say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w unto you|strong="G5213"\+w*, \+w One|strong="G1520"\+w* \+w of|strong="G1537"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5216"\+w* \+w which|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w eateth|strong="G2068"\+w* \+w with|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1700"\+w* \+w shall betray|strong="G3860"\+w* \+w me|strong="G3165"\+w*.*

19

And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is* it I? and another said, Is* it I?

20

And he answered and said unto them, \+add It is\+add* \+w one|strong="G1520"\+w* \+w of|strong="G1537"\+w* \+w the twelve|strong="G1427"\+w*, \+w that|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w dippeth|strong="G1686"\+w* \+w with|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w me|strong="G1700"\+w* \+w in|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w the dish|strong="G5165"\+w*.*

21

\+w The Son|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w of man|strong="G0444"\+w* \+w indeed|strong="G3303"\+w* \+w goeth|strong="G5217"\+w*, \+w as|strong="G2531"\+w* \+w it is written|strong="G1125"\+w* \+w of|strong="G4012"\+w* \+w him|strong="G0846"\+w*: \+w but|strong="G1161"\+w* \+w woe|strong="G3759"\+w* \+w to that|strong="G1565"\+w* \+w man|strong="G0444"\+w* \+w by|strong="G1223"\+w* \+w whom|strong="G3739"\+w* \+w the Son|strong="G5207"\+w* \+w of man|strong="G0444"\+w* \+w is betrayed|strong="G3860"\+w*! \+w good|strong="G2570"\+w* \+w were it|strong="G2258"\+w* \+w for that|strong="G1565"\+w* \+w man|strong="G0444"\+w* \+w if|strong="G1487"\+w* \+w he|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w had|strong="G1080"\+w* \+w never|strong="G3756"\+w* \+w been born|strong="G1080"\+w*.*

22

¶ And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it*, and gave to them, and said, \+w Take|strong="G2983"\+w*, \+w eat|strong="G5315"\+w*: \+w this|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w is|strong="G2076"\+w* \+w my|strong="G3450"\+w* \+w body|strong="G4983"\+w*.*

23

And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it* to them: and they all drank of it.

24

And he said unto them, \+w This|strong="G5124"\+w* \+w is|strong="G2076"\+w* \+w my|strong="G3450"\+w* \+w blood|strong="G0129"\+w* \+w of the new|strong="G2537"\+w* \+w testament|strong="G1242"\+w*, \+w which|strong="G3588"\+w* \+w is shed|strong="G1632"\+w* \+w for|strong="G4012"\+w* \+w many|strong="G4183"\+w*.*

25

\+w Verily|strong="G0281"\+w* \+w I say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w unto you|strong="G5213"\+w*, \+w I will drink|strong="G4095"\+w* \+w no more|strong="G3765"\+w* \+w of|strong="G1537"\+w* \+w the fruit|strong="G1081"\+w* \+w of the vine|strong="G0288"\+w*, \+w until|strong="G2193"\+w* \+w that|strong="G1565"\+w* \+w day|strong="G2250"\+w* \+w that|strong="G3752"\+w* \+w I drink|strong="G4095"\+w* \+w it|strong="G0846"\+w* \+w new|strong="G2537"\+w* \+w in|strong="G1722"\+w* \+w the kingdom|strong="G0932"\+w* \+w of God|strong="G2316"\+w*.*

26

¶ And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

27

And Jesus saith unto them, \+w All|strong="G3956"\+w* \+w ye shall be offended|strong="G4624"\+w* \+w because|strong="G1722"\+w* \+w of me|strong="G1698"\+w* \+w this|strong="G3778"\+w* \+w night|strong="G3571"\+w*: \+w for|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w it is written|strong="G1125"\+w*, \+w I will smite|strong="G3960"\+w* \+w the shepherd|strong="G4166"\+w*, \+w and|strong="G2532"\+w* \+w the sheep|strong="G4263"\+w* \+w shall be scattered|strong="G1287"\+w*.*

28

\+w But|strong="G0235"\+w* \+w after|strong="G3326"\+w* \+w that I|strong="G3165"\+w* \+w am risen|strong="G1453"\+w*, \+w I will go before|strong="G4254"\+w* \+w you|strong="G5209"\+w* \+w into|strong="G1519"\+w* \+w Galilee|strong="G1056"\+w*.*

29

But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will* not I.

30

And Jesus saith unto him, \+w Verily|strong="G0281"\+w* \+w I say|strong="G3004"\+w* \+w unto thee|strong="G4671"\+w*, \+w That|strong="G3754"\+w* \+w this day|strong="G4594"\+w*, \+add even\+add* \+w in|strong="G1722"\+w* \+w this|strong="G3778"\+w* \+w night|strong="G3571"\+w*, \+w before|strong="G4250"\+w* \+w the cock|strong="G0220"\+w* \+w crow|strong="G5455"\+w* \+w twice|strong="G1364"\+w*, \+w thou shalt deny|strong="G0533"\+w* \+w me|strong="G3165"\+w* \+w thrice|strong="G5151"\+w*.*
