3 And Satan came into Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve.
4 And he went away and had a discussion with the chief priests and the rulers, about how he might give him up to them.
5 And they were glad, and undertook to give him money.
6 And he made an agreement with them to give him up to them, if he got a chance, when the people were not present.
7 And the day of unleavened bread came, when the Passover lamb is put to death.

9 And they said to him, Where are we to get it ready?
10 And he said to them, When you go into the town you will see a man coming to you with a vessel of water; go after him into the house into which he goes.

12 And he will take you up to a great room with a table and seats: there make ready.
13 And they went, and it was as he had said: and they made the Passover ready.
14 And when the time had come, he took his seat, and the Apostles with him.

16 For I say to you, I will not take it till it is made complete in the kingdom of God.
