v4
He went away and conferred with the chief priests and officers how he might betray him to them.
v5
And they were glad, and agreed to give him money.

v7
Then came the day of Unleavened Bread, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.
v8
So Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it.”
v9
They said to him, “Where will you have us prepare it?“
v10
He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters
v11
and tell the master of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?‘
v12
And he will show you a large upper room furnished; prepare it there.”
v13
And they went and found it just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.Institution of the Lord’s Supper
v14
And when the hour came, he reclined at table, and the apostles with him.
v15
And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.
v16
For I tell you I will not eat it until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
v17
And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he said, “Take this, and divide it among yourselves.
v18
For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
v19
And he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”
v20
And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood.
v21
But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is with me on the table.
v22
For the Son of Man goes as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!“
v23
And they began to question one another, which of them it could be who was going to do this.Who Is the Greatest?
v24
A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest.
v25
And he said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors.
v26
But not so with you. Rather, let the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves.
v27
For who is the greater, one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But I am among you as the one who serves.
v28
“You are those who have stayed with me in my trials,
v29
and I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom,
v30
that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.Jesus Foretells Peter’s Denial

v35
And he said to them, “When I sent you out with no moneybag or knapsack or sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.”
v36
He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one.
v37
For I tell you that this Scripture must be fulfilled in me: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors.’ For what is written about me has its fulfillment.”
v38
And they said, “Look, Lord, here are two swords.” And he said to them, “It is enough.”Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives
v39
And he came out and went, as was his custom, to the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him.
v40
And when he came to the place, he said to them, “Pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
v41
And he withdrew from them about a stone’s throw, and knelt down and prayed,
v42
saying, “Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.”
v43
And there appeared to him an angel from heaven, strengthening him.
v44
And being in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.
v45
And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow,
v46
and he said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise and pray that you may not enter into temptation.”Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus
v47
While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him,
v48
but Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?“
v49
And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike with the sword?“
v50
And one of them struck the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.
v51
But Jesus said, “No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him.
v52
Then Jesus said to the chief priests and officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs?
v53
When I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is your hour, and the power of darkness.”Peter Denies Jesus
v54
Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest’s house, and Peter was following at a distance.
v55
And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.
v56
Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the light and looking closely at him, said, “This man also was with him.”
v57
But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.”
v58
And a little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”
v59
And after an interval of about an hour still another insisted, saying, “Certainly this man also was with him, for he too is a Galilean.”
v60
But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed.
v61
And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.”
v62
And he went out and wept bitterly.Jesus Is Mocked
v63
Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him.

And they said many other things against him, blaspheming him.Jesus Before the Council
v66
When day came, the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. And they led him away to their council, and they said,
v67
“If you are the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe,
v68
and if I ask you, you will not answer.
v69
But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated at the right hand of the power of God.”
v70
So they all said, “Are you the Son of God, then?” And he said to them, “You say that I am.”
v71
Then they said, “What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips.”
