Scriptures

New Living Translation (NLT)

Luke 22
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 to remember 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.”
