24 The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him.(A) But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.”

25 Then Judas, the one who would betray him,(B) said, “Surely you don’t mean me, Rabbi?”(C)

Jesus answered, “You have said so.”

26 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it(D) and gave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.”

27 Then he took a cup,(E) and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. 28 This is my blood of the[a] covenant,(F) which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.(G) 29 I tell you, I will not drink from this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it new with you(H) in my Father’s kingdom.”
