The Last Passover

^20 (A)Now when evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the twelve disciples. ²¹ As they were eating, He said, “^(B)Truly I say to you that one of you will betray Me.” ²² Being deeply grieved, they ^[a]each one began to say to Him, “Surely not I, Lord?” ²³ And He answered, “^(C)He who dipped his hand with Me in the bowl is the one who will betray Me. ²⁴ The Son of Man is to go, ^(D)just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! ^(E)It would have been good ^[b]for that man if he had not been born.”

The Lord’s Supper

^14 (A)When the hour had come, He reclined at the table, and ^(B)the apostles with Him.

^21 (A)But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with ^[a]Mine on the table. ²² For indeed, the Son of Man is going ^(B)as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” ²³ And they began to discuss among themselves which one of them it might be who was going to do this thing.

^18 (A)I do not speak of all of you. I know the ones I have ^(B)chosen; but it is ^(C)that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘^(D)He who eats My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’ ¹⁹ From now on ^(E)I am telling you before it comes to pass, so that when it does occur, you may believe that ^(F)I am He. ²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(G)he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”

Jesus Predicts His Betrayal

²¹ When Jesus had said this, He ^(H)became troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, that ^(I)one of you will ^[a]betray Me.” ²² The disciples began looking at one another, ^(J)at a loss to know of which one He was speaking. ²³ There was reclining on ^(K)Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, ^(L)whom Jesus loved. ²⁴ So Simon Peter *gestured to him, and *said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking.” ²⁵ He, ^(M)leaning back thus on Jesus’ bosom, *said to Him, “Lord, who is it?” ²⁶ Jesus then *answered, “That is the one for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the morsel, He *took and *gave it to Judas, ^(N)the son of Simon Iscariot. ²⁷ After the morsel, ^(O)Satan then ^(P)entered into him. Therefore Jesus *said to him, “What you do, do quickly.” ²⁸ Now no one of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him. ²⁹ For some were supposing, because Judas ^(Q)had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we have need of ^(R)for the feast”; or else, that he should ^(S)give something to the poor. ³⁰ So after receiving the morsel he went out immediately; and ^(T)it was night.

³¹ Therefore when he had gone out, Jesus *said, “Now ^[b]is ^(U)the Son of Man ^(V)glorified, and ^(W)God ^[c]is glorified in Him; ^32 [d]if God is glorified in Him, ^(X)God will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately. ^33 (Y)Little children, I am with you ^(Z)a little while longer. ^(AA)You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’ ³⁴ A ^(AB)new commandment I give to you, ^(AC)that you love one another, ^(AD)even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. ^35 (AE)By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

³⁶ Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?” Jesus answered, “^(AF)Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but ^(AG)you will follow later.” ³⁷ Peter *said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You right now? ^(AH)I will lay down my life for You.” ³⁸ Jesus *answered, “Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(AI)a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.
