I am telling you this now before it happens so that when it happens, you will believe that I am he.
20
I tell you the truth, whoever accepts anyone I send also accepts me. And whoever accepts me also accepts the One who sent me."
21
After Jesus said this, he was very troubled. He said openly, "I tell you the truth, one of you will turn against me."
22
The followers all looked at each other, because they did not know whom Jesus was talking about.
23
One of the followers sittingn next to Jesus was the follower Jesus loved.
24
Simon Peter motioned to him to ask Jesus whom he was talking about.
25
That follower leaned closer to Jesus and asked, "Lord, who is it?"
26
Jesus answered, "I will dip this bread into the dish. The man I give it to is the man who will turn against me." So Jesus took a piece of bread, dipped it, and gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
27
As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered him. Jesus said to him, "The thing that you will do -- do it quickly."
28
No one at the table understood why Jesus said this to Judas.
29
Since he was the one who kept the money box, some of the followers thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the feast or to give something to the poor.
