 <div class="p">1Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching, 2and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus, for they were afraid of the people. 3Then Satan entered Judas, called Iscariot, one of the Twelve. 4And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. 5They were delighted and agreed to give him money. 6He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.</div><div class="s1">The Last Supper</div><div class="p">7Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. 8Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, &#8220;Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.&#8221;</div><div class="p">9&#8220;Where do you want us to prepare for it?&#8221; they asked.</div><div class="p">10He replied, &#8220;As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, 11and say to the owner of the house, &#8216;The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?&#8217; 12He will show you a large room upstairs, all furnished. Make preparations there.&#8221;</div><div class="p">13They left and found things just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover.</div><div class="p">14When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles reclined at the table. 15And he said to them, &#8220;I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.&#8221;</div><div class="p">17After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, &#8220;Take this and divide it among you. 18For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.&#8221;</div><div class="p">19And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, &#8220;This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.&#8221;</div><div class="p">20In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, &#8220;This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for you.#22:19,20 Some manuscripts do not have given for you&#8230; poured out for you. 21But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table. 22The Son of Man will go as it has been decreed. But woe to that man who betrays him!&#8221; 23They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this.</div><div class="p">24A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest. 25Jesus said to them, &#8220;The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. 26But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who rules like the one who serves. 27For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves. 28You are those who have stood by me in my trials. 29And I confer on you a kingdom, just as my Father conferred one on me, 30so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.</div><div class="p">31 &#8220;Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift all of you as wheat. 32But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.&#8221;</div><div class="p">33But he replied, &#8220;Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.&#8221;</div><div class="p">34Jesus answered, &#8220;I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.&#8221;</div><div class="p">35Then Jesus asked them, &#8220;When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?&#8221;</div><div class="p">&#8220;Nothing,&#8221; they answered.</div><div class="p">36He said to them, &#8220;But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don&#8217;t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. 37It is written: &#8216;And he was numbered with the transgressors&#8217;#22:37 Isaiah 53:12; and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.&#8221;</div><div class="p">38The disciples said, &#8220;See, Lord, here are two swords.&#8221;</div><div class="p">&#8220;That&#8217;s enough!&#8221; he replied.</div><div class="s1">Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives</div><div class="p">39Jesus went out as usual to the Mount of Olives, and his disciples followed him. 40On reaching the place, he said to them, &#8220;Pray that you will not fall into temptation.&#8221; 41He withdrew about a stone&#8217;s throw beyond them, knelt down and prayed, 42&#8220;Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.&#8221; 43An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him. 44And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.#22:43,44 Many early manuscripts do not have verses 43 and 44.</div><div class="p">45When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. 46&#8220;Why are you sleeping?&#8221; he asked them. &#8220;Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.&#8221;</div>
