Mateus 26

1 And it was done, when Jesus had ended all these words, he said to his disciples,

2 Ye know, that after two days pask shall be made, and man’s Son shall be betaken to be crucified.

3 Then the princes of priests, and the elder men of the people were gathered into the hall of the prince of priests, that was said Caiaphas,

4 and made a counsel to hold Jesus with guile, and slay him;

5 but they said, Not in the holiday [or in the feast day], lest peradventure noise were made in the people.

6 And when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leprous,

7 a woman that had a box of alabaster of precious ointment, came to him, and shedded it out on the head of him resting.

8 And the disciples seeing had disdain, and said, Whereto is this loss?

9 for it might be sold for much [or this might have been sold for much], and be given to poor men.

10 But Jesus knew, and said to them, What be ye heavy to this woman? for she hath wrought in me a good work [or she hath wrought a good work in me].

11 For ye shall ever[more] have poor men with you, but ye shall not always have me.

12 For this woman sending this ointment into my body, did [for] to bury me.

13 Truly I say to you, wherever this gospel shall be preached in all the world, it shall be said, that she did this, in mind of him.

14 Then one of the twelve, that was called Judas Iscariot, went forth [or went] to the princes of priests,

15 and said to them, What will ye give to me, and I shall betake him to you? And they ordained to him thirty pieces of silver.

16 And from that time he sought opportunity, to betray him.

17 And in the first day of therf loaves the disciples came to Jesus, and said, Where wilt thou [that] we make ready to thee, to eat pask?

18 Jesus said, Go ye into the city to a man, and say to him, The master saith, My time is nigh; at thee I make pask with my disciples.

19 And the disciples did, as Jesus commanded to them; and they made the pask ready.

20 And when the eventide was come, he sat to [or at the] meat, with his twelve disciples.

21 And he said to them, as they ate, Truly I say to you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 And they full sorry, [or made sorrowful greatly], began each by himself to say, Lord, whether I am he?

23 And he answered, and said, He that putteth with me his hand in the platter, shall betray me.

24 Forsooth man’s Son goeth, as it is written of him; but woe to that man, by whom man’s Son shall be betrayed; it were good to him, if that man had not been born.

25 But Judas that betrayed him, answered, saying, Master, whether I am he? Jesus said to him, Thou hast said.

26 And while they supped, Jesus took bread, and blessed [it], and brake, and gave to his disciples, and said, Take ye, and eat; this is my body.

27 And he took the cup, and did thankings, and gave to them, and said, Drink ye all thereof;

28 this is my blood of the new testament, which shall be shed for many, into remission of sins.
