1
And the feast of the unleavened food was coming nigh, that is called Passover,
2
and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how they may take him up, for they were afraid of the people.
3
And the Adversary entered into Judas, who is surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve,
4
and he, having gone away, spake with the chief priests and the magistrates, how he might deliver him up to them,
5
and they rejoiced, and covenanted to give him money,
6
and he agreed, and was seeking a favourable season to deliver him up to them without tumult.
7
And the day of the unleavened food came, in which it was behoving the passover to be sacrificed,
8
and he sent Peter and John, saying, `Having gone on, prepare to us the passover, that we may eat;'
9
and they said to him, `Where wilt thou that we might prepare?'
10
And he said to them, `Lo, in your entering into the city, there shall meet you a man, bearing a pitcher of water, follow him to the house where he doth go in,
11
and ye shall say to the master of the house, The Teacher saith to thee, Where is the guest-chamber where the passover with my disciples I may eat?
