Matthew 26:26-30 - The Lord's Supper

²⁶ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread and, when he had blessed it, he broke it and gave to his disciples, saying, "Take, eat, this is my body." ²⁷ And when he had taken the cup and given thanks, he gave it to them, saying. ²⁸ "Drink from it, all of you; for this is my blood of the Covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. ²⁹ "But I say to you, I will never again drink of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in the kingdom of my Father." ³⁰ So after singing a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

²² And as they were eating he took bread, and after the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "Take it, this is my body."

²³ Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank of it, ²⁴ and he said: "This is my covenant blood, which is poured out for many. ²⁵ Solemnly I tell you I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day I drink it new in the kingdom of God." ²⁶ Then they sang a hymn and went out to the Mount of Olives.

¹⁴ And when the hour was come he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him, ¹⁵ and he said to them. "With desire have I longed to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. ¹⁶ For I tell you that I certainly will not eat again until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God." ¹⁷ Then he had received a cup and given thanks, he said, ¹⁸ "Take this, and divide it among yourselves; for I tell you that I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God is come."

¹⁹ And he took a loaf, and after giving thanks, he broke it and gave it to them saying. "This is my body, which is given for you; this do in remembrance of me.'

²⁰ He gave them a cup in like manner, after supper saying. "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, poured out for your sake. ²¹ "But behold, the hand of my betrayer is at the table with me! ²² "The Son of man indeed goes on his way, as it has been determined; but woe to that man by who he is betrayed."

²³ And they began to question among themselves which of them it could be who was going to do such a thing.
