Matthew 26:22-30

22 Being deeply grieved, they each one began to say to Him, "Surely not I, Lord?"

23 And He answered, "¹He who dipped his hand with Me in the bowl is the one who will betray Me.

24 "The Son of Man is to go, ²just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! ³It would have been good for that man if he had not been born."

25 And ⁴Judas, who was betraying Him, said, "Surely it is not I, ⁵Rabbi?" Jesus said to him, "⁶You have said it yourself."

27 And when He had taken a cup and given thanks, He gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you;

28 for ⁹this is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for ¹⁰many for forgiveness of sins.

29 "But I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you in My Father's kingdom."
