Mateus 26

1 And it came to pass, when Jesus finished all these words, He said to His disciples, 2 "You have known that after two days the Passover comes, and the Son of Man is delivered up to be crucified." 3 Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, into the court of the chief priest who was called Caiaphas; 4 and they consulted together that they might take Jesus by guile, and kill [Him], 5 and they said, "Not in the celebration, that there may not be a tumult among the people." 6 And Jesus having been in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, 7 there came to Him a woman having an alabaster box of ointment, very precious, and she poured on His head as He is reclining. 8 And having seen [it], His disciples were much displeased, saying, "To what purpose [is] this waste? 9 For this ointment could have been sold for much, and given to the poor." 10 And Jesus having known, said to them, "Why do you give trouble to the woman? For a good work she worked for Me; 11 for you always have the poor with you, and you do not always have Me; 12 for she having put this ointment on My body—for My burial she did [it]. 13 Truly I say to you, wherever this good news may be proclaimed in the whole world, what this [one] did will also be spoken of—for a memorial of her." 14 Then one of the Twelve, who is called Judas Iscariot, having gone to the chief priests, said, 15 "What are you willing to give me, and I will deliver Him up to you?" And they weighed out to him thirty pieces of silver, 16 and from that time he was seeking a convenient season to deliver Him up. 17 And on the first [day] of the Unleavened [Bread] the disciples came near to Jesus, saying to Him, "Where will You [that] we may prepare for You to eat the Passover?" 18 And He said, "Go away into the city, to such a one, and say to him, The Teacher says, My time is near; near you I keep the Passover with My disciples"; 19 and the disciples did as Jesus appointed them, and prepared the Passover. 20 And evening having come, He was reclining with the Twelve, 21 and while they are eating, He said, "Truly I say to you that one of you will deliver Me up." 22 And being grieved exceedingly, they began to say to Him, each of them, "Is it I, Lord?" 23 And He answering said, "He who dipped with Me the hand in the dish, he will deliver Me up; 24 the Son of Man indeed goes, as it has been written concerning Him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is delivered up! It were good for him if that man had not been born." 25 And Judas—he who delivered Him up—answering said, "Is it I, Rabbi?" He says to him, "You have said." 26 And while they were eating, Jesus having taken the bread, and having blessed, broke, and was giving [it] to the disciples, and said, "Take, eat, this is My body"; 27 and having taken the cup, and having given thanks, He gave to them, saying, "Drink of it—all; 28 for this is My blood of the New Covenant, that is being poured out for many, for forgiveness of sins;
