Thencame the day of unleavened bread,whenthepassovermust be killed.
8
And he sentPeterandJohn,saying, Go and prepareus the passover,that we may eat.
9
And they said unto him,Where wilt thou that we prepare?
10
And he said unto them,Behold, when ye are enteredinto the city, there shall a manmeetyou,bearing a pitcher of water;followhiminto the housewhere he entereth in.

For I say unto you*, I willnot any moreeatthereof*, untilit be fulfilledin the kingdom of God.
17
And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Takethis,anddivide it among yourselves:
18

19
And he tookbread, and gave thanks, and brake it, andgave unto them,saying, Thisismybodywhich is givenforyou:thisdo in remembranceofme.
20
Likewisealso the cupaftersupper, saying, Thiscup is the newtestamentinmyblood,which is shedforyou.

24
And there wasalso a strifeamongthem,which of them should be accounted* the greatest.
25
And he said unto them,The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship overthem;and they that exercise authority uponthem are calledbenefactors.
26
Butye shall not be so:but he that is greatestamongyou, let him beas the younger;and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

Forwhether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? butIamamong*youas he that serveth.
28
Yeare they which have continuedwithmeinmytemptations.
29
And Iappoint unto you a kingdom,asmyFather hath appointed unto me;

36
Then said he unto them,Butnow, he that hath a purse, let him take it, andlikewise his scrip:and he that hathnosword, let him sellhisgarment,andbuy one.

For I say unto you,thatthis that is writtenmustyet be accomplishedinme,And he was reckonedamong the transgressors:forthe things concerningmehave an end.
38
And they said, Lord,behold, here are twoswords.And he said unto them,It isenough.
