New Living Translation (NLT)

Luke 22
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 to remember me.”
