Matthew 26:23-33

23 He answered, ¹"He who has dipped his hand in the dish with me will betray me.

24 The Son of Man goes ²as it is written of him, but ³woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! ⁴It would have been better for that man if he had not been born."

25 Judas, who would betray him, answered, "Is it I, ⁵Rabbi?" He said to him, ⁶"You have said so."

Institution of the Lord's Supper

26 ⁷Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and ⁸after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat; ⁹this is my body."

27 And he took a cup, and when he ¹⁰had given thanks he gave it to them, saying, "Drink of it, all of you,

28 for ¹¹this is my ¹²blood of the^[a] covenant, which is poured out for ¹³many ¹⁴for the forgiveness of sins.

29 I tell you I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you ¹⁵in my Father's kingdom."

Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial

30 ¹⁶And when they had sung a hymn, ¹⁷they went out to ¹⁸the Mount of Olives.

31 Then Jesus said to them, "You will all fall away because of me this night. For it is written, 'I will ¹⁹strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

32 But after I am raised up, ²⁰I will go before you to Galilee."

33 ²¹Peter answered him, "Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away."
