Matthew 26:17-29
The time of the Passover now had come,
Jesus said my time is at hand.
I will keep the Passover with my disciples,
When evening was come he sat down with the twelve.
And as they were eating he said unto them,
One of you shall betray me.
And all were very sad and they began to cry,
Lord is it I? Lord is it I?
Then Jesus answered and said unto them,
He that dips his hand with me in the dish,
Is the one who shall betray me,
The Son of Man goes as it is written of him.
But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man,
It had been better if he had not been born.
Then Judas who betrayed him said, master is it I?
Jesus said to him, thou hast said.
And while they were eating Jesus took bread,
And blessed it and broke it and gave it to them.
He said take eat, this is my body,
And then he took the cup and he gave thanks,
He gave it to the disciples and said,
Drink all of it.
For this is my blood of the New Testament,
Which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
But I will not hence drink of this fruit of the vine,
Until the day I drink it new with you,
In my Father's kingdom.
The Son of man who will shed his blood,
Jesus the Passover Lamb of God.
The Son of God who shed his blood,
Jesus the Passover Lamb of God.
