Matthew 26:26-30

The Lord’s Supper

26 Now [while] they were eating Jesus took bread and, [after] giving thanks, he broke [it], and giving [it] to the disciples, he said, "Take, eat, this is my body."

27 And [after] taking the cup and giving thanks he gave [it] to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you,

28 for this is my blood of the covenant which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.

29 But I tell you, from now [on] I will never drink of this fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father."

30 And [after they] had sung the hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
