Luke 22:10-20

10 He answered, "As you go into the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters,
11 and say to the owner of the house: "The Teacher says to you, Where is the room where my disciples and I will eat the Passover meal?'
12 He will show you a large furnished room upstairs, where you will get everything ready."
13 They went off and found everything just as Jesus had told them, and they prepared the Passover meal.
14 When the hour came, Jesus took his place at the table with the apostles.
15 He said to them, "I have wanted so much to eat this Passover meal with you before I suffer!
16 For I tell you, I will never eat it until it is given its full meaning in the Kingdom of God."
17 Then Jesus took a cup, gave thanks to God, and said, "Take this and share it among yourselves.
18 I tell you that from now on I will not drink this wine until the Kingdom of God comes."
19 Then he took a piece of bread, gave thanks to God, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in memory of me."
20 In the same way, he gave them the cup after the supper, saying, "This cup is God's new covenant sealed with my blood, which is poured out for you. 1
