"We are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the high priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death, and hand him over to the heathen to be mocked and flogged and crucified, and on the third day he will be raised to life."

But he answered, "Only a wicked and faithless age insists upon a sign, and no sign will be given it but the sign of the prophet Jonah. For just as Jonah was in the maw of the whale for three days and nights, the Son of Man will be three days and nights in the heart of the earth.

As they were going about in Galilee, Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is going to be handed over to men, and they will kill him, but on the third day he will be raised to life again." And they were greatly distressed.

"You know that in two days the Passover Festival will come, and the Son of Man will be handed over to be crucified."


He answered, "The man who just dipped his hand in the same dish with me is going to betray me. The Son of Man is to go away as the Scriptures say of him, but alas for the man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had never been born!"

Then he came back to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? See, the time has come for the Son of Man to be handed over to wicked men! Get up! Let us be going! Look! Here comes my betrayer!"

for he was teaching his disciples, saying to them, "The Son of Man is to be handed over to men, and they will kill him, and three days after he is killed he will rise again."

As they went on their way up to Jerusalem, Jesus walked ahead of them, and they were in dismay, and those who still followed were afraid. And he took the Twelve aside again and began to tell them what was going to happen to him. "See!" he said, "we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be handed over to the high priests and scribes, and they will condemn him to death and hand him over to the heathen and they will ridicule him and spit on him and flog him and kill him; and three days after he will rise again."

and said, "The Son of Man must endure great suffering and be refused by the elders, the high priests, and the scribes, and be killed, and be raised to life on the third day." And he said to everyone, "If anyone wants to go with me, he must disregard himself, and take his cross day after day and follow me. For whoever wants to preserve his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for me will preserve it.

And he took the Twelve aside and said to them, "See! we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything written in the prophets about the Son of Man will be fulfilled. For he will be handed over to the heathen, and ridiculed and insulted and spat upon, and they will flog him and kill him, and on the third day he will rise again."

I do not mean all of you; I know whom I have chosen; but let the Scripture be fulfilled: " 'He who is eating my bread Has raised his heel against me.' From now on I will tell you things before they happen, so that when they do happen you may believe that I am what I say. I assure you, whoever welcomes any messenger of mine welcomes me and whoever welcomes me welcomes him who has sent me." read more.
After Jesus had said this he was greatly moved and said solemnly, "I tell you, it is one of you that will betray me!" The disciples looked at one another in doubt as to which of them he meant. Next to Jesus, at his right at the table, was one of his disciples whom Jesus especially loved. So Simon Peter nodded to him and said to him, "Tell us whom he means." He leaned back from where he lay, on Jesus' breast, and said to him, "Master, who is it?" Jesus answered, "It is the one to whom I am going to give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish." So he dipped the piece of bread and took it and gave it to Judas, Simon Iscariot's son. After he took the bread, Satan took possession of him. Then Jesus said to him, "Be quick about your business."

Simon Peter said to him, "Master, where are you going?" Jesus answered, "I am going where you cannot follow me now, but you will follow me later." Peter said to him, "Master, why cannot I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you." Jesus answered, "You will lay down your life for me? I tell you, before a cock crows, you will disown me thrice over!

It might have been sold for more than sixty dollars, and the money have been given to the poor." read more.
And they grumbled at her. But Jesus said, "Leave her alone. Why do you bother her? It is a fine thing that she has done to me. For you always have the poor among you, and whenever you please you can do for them, but you will not always have me. She has done all she could; she has perfumed my body in preparation for my burial. I tell you, wherever the good news is preached all over the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her."
