Luke 22:19
know that the Kingdom of God is near. 32 I tell you the truth, this generation
will not pass from the scene until all these things have taken place. 33 Heaven
and earth will disappear, but my words will never disappear.
34 “Watch out! Don’t let your hearts be dulled by carousing and drunkenness, and by the worries of this life. Don’t let that day catch you unaware,
35 like a trap. For that day will come upon everyone living on the earth.
36 Keep alert at all times. And pray that you might be strong enough to escape
these coming horrors and stand before the Son of Man.”
37 Every day Jesus went to the Temple to teach, and each evening he returned to spend the night on the Mount of Olives. 38 The crowds gathered
at the Temple early each morning to hear him.
Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
The Festival of Unleavened Bread, which is also called Passover, was
approaching. 2 The leading priests and teachers of religious law were
plotting how to kill Jesus, but they were afraid of the people’s reaction.
3 Then Satan entered into Judas Iscariot, who was one of the twelve disciples, 4 and he went to the leading priests and captains of the Temple guard
to discuss the best way to betray Jesus to them. 5 They were delighted, and
they promised to give him money. 6 So he agreed and began looking for
an opportunity to betray Jesus so they could arrest him when the crowds
weren’t around.

The Last Supper
7 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread arrived, when the Passover lamb is
sacrificed. 8 Jesus sent Peter and John ahead and said, “Go and prepare the
Passover meal, so we can eat it together.”
9 “Where do you want us to prepare it?” they asked him.
10 He replied, “As soon as you enter Jerusalem, a man carrying a pitcher of
water will meet you. Follow him. At the house he enters, 11 say to the owner,
‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room where I can eat the Passover
meal with my disciples?’ 12 He will take you upstairs to a large room that is
already set up. That is where you should prepare our meal.” 13 They went off
to the city and found everything just as Jesus had said, and they prepared
the Passover meal there.
14 When the time came, Jesus and the apostles sat down together at the
table.* 15 Jesus said, “I have been very eager to eat this Passover meal with you
before my suffering begins. 16 For I tell you now that I won’t eat this meal again
until its meaning is fulfilled in the Kingdom of God.”
17 Then he took a cup of wine and gave thanks to God for it. Then he said,
“Take this and share it among yourselves. 18 For I will not drink wine again
until the Kingdom of God has come.”
19 He took some bread and gave thanks to God for it. Then he broke it in
pieces and gave it to the disciples, saying, “This is my body, which is given
for you. Do this in remembrance of me.”
20 After supper he took another cup of wine and said, “This cup is the new
covenant between God and his people—an agreement confirmed with my
blood, which is poured out as a sacrifice for you.*
21 “But here at this table, sitting among us as a friend, is the man who will
betray me. 22 For it has been determined that the Son of Man* must die. But
what sorrow awaits the one who betrays him.” 23 The disciples began to ask
each other which of them would ever do such a thing.
22:14 Or reclined together. 22:19-20 Some manuscripts do not include 22:19b‑20, which is given
for you . . . which is poured out as a sacrifice for you. 22:22 “Son of Man” is a title Jesus used for
himself.
