Luke 22:14-20

International Children’s Bible

The Lord’s Supper

¹⁴ When the time came, Jesus and the apostles were sitting at the table. ¹⁵ He said to them, “I wanted very much to eat this Passover meal with you before I die. ¹⁶ I will never eat another Passover meal until it is given its true meaning in the kingdom of God.”

¹⁷ Then Jesus took a cup. He gave thanks to God for it and said, “Take this cup and give it to everyone here. ¹⁸ I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine^[a] until God’s kingdom comes.”

¹⁹ Then Jesus took some bread. He thanked God for it, broke it, and gave it to the apostles. Then Jesus said, “This bread is my body^[b] that I am giving for you. Do this to remember me.” ²⁰ In the same way, after supper, Jesus took the cup and said, “This cup shows the new agreement that God makes with his people. This new agreement begins with my blood which is poured out for you.”
