22 La fête des pains sans levain, appelée la Pâque, approchait.
2 Les principaux sacrificateurs et les scribes cherchaient les moyens de faire mourir Jésus; car ils craignaient le peuple.
3 Or, Satan entra dans Judas, surnommé Iscariot, qui était du nombre des douze.
4 Et Judas alla s'entendre avec les principaux sacrificateurs et les chefs des gardes, sur la manière de le leur livrer.
5 Ils furent dans la joie, et ils convinrent de lui donner de l'argent.
6 Après s'être engagé, il cherchait une occasion favorable pour leur livrer Jésus à l'insu de la foule.
7 Le jour des pains sans levain, où l'on devait immoler la Pâque, arriva,
8 et Jésus envoya Pierre et Jean, en disant: Allez nous préparer la Pâque, afin que nous la mangions.
9 Ils lui dirent: Où veux-tu que nous la préparions?
10 Il leur répondit: Voici, quand vous serez entrés dans la ville, vous rencontrerez un homme portant une cruche d'eau; suivez-le dans la maison où il entrera,
11 et vous direz au maître de la maison: Le maître te dit: Où est le lieu où je mangerai la Pâque avec mes disciples?
12 Et il vous montrera une grande chambre haute, meublée: c'est là que vous préparerez la Pâque.
13 Ils partirent, et trouvèrent les choses comme il le leur avait dit; et ils préparèrent la Pâque.
14 L'heure étant venue, il se mit à table, et les apôtres avec lui.
15 Il leur dit: J'ai désiré vivement manger cette Pâque avec vous, avant de souffrir;
16 car, je vous le dis, je ne la mangerai plus, jusqu'à ce qu'elle soit accomplie dans le royaume de Dieu.
17 Et, ayant pris une coupe et rendu grâces, il dit: Prenez cette coupe, et distribuez-la entre vous;
18 car, je vous le dis, je ne boirai plus désormais du fruit de la vigne, jusqu'à ce que le royaume de Dieu soit venu.
19 Ensuite il prit du pain; et, après avoir rendu grâces, il le rompit, et le leur donna, en disant: Ceci est mon corps, qui est donné pour vous; faites ceci en mémoire de moi.
20 Il prit de même la coupe, après le souper, et la leur donna, en disant: Cette coupe est la nouvelle alliance en mon sang, qui est répandu pour vous.
21 Cependant voici, la main de celui qui me livre est avec moi à cette table.
22 Le Fils de l'homme s'en va selon ce qui est déterminé. Mais malheur à l'homme par qui il est livré!
23 Et ils commencèrent à se demander les uns aux autres qui était celui d'entre eux qui ferait cela.
24 Il s'éleva aussi parmi les apôtres une contestation: lequel d'entre eux devait être estimé le plus grand?
25 Jésus leur dit: Les rois des nations les maîtrisent, et ceux qui les dominent sont appelés bienfaiteurs.
26 Qu'il n'en soit pas de même pour vous. Mais que le plus grand parmi vous soit comme le plus petit, et celui qui gouverne comme celui qui sert.
27 Car quel est le plus grand, celui qui est à table, ou celui qui sert? N'est-ce pas celui qui est à table? Et moi, cependant, je suis au milieu de vous comme celui qui sert.
28 Vous, vous êtes ceux qui avez persévéré avec moi dans mes épreuves;
29 c'est pourquoi je dispose du royaume en votre faveur, comme mon Père en a disposé en ma faveur,
30 afin que vous mangiez et buviez à ma table dans mon royaume, et que vous soyez assis sur des trônes, pour juger les douze tribus d'Israël.
31 Le Seigneur dit: Simon, Simon, Satan vous a réclamés, pour vous cribler comme le froment.
32 Mais j'ai prié pour toi, afin que ta foi ne défaille point; et toi, quand tu seras converti, affermis tes frères.
33 Seigneur, lui dit Pierre, je suis prêt à aller avec toi et en prison et à la mort.
34 Et Jésus dit: Pierre, je te le dis, le coq ne chantera pas aujourd'hui que tu n'aies nié trois fois de me connaître.
35 Il leur dit encore: Quand je vous ai envoyés sans bourse, sans sac, et sans souliers, avez-vous manqué de quelque chose? Ils répondirent: De rien.
36 Et il leur dit: Maintenant, au contraire, que celui qui a une bourse la prenne et que celui qui a un sac le prenne également, que celui qui n'a point d'épée vende son vêtement et achète une épée.
37 Car, je vous le dis, il faut que cette parole qui est écrite s'accomplisse en moi: Il a été mis au nombre des malfaiteurs. Et ce qui me concerne est sur le point d'arriver.
38 Ils dirent: Seigneur, voici deux épées. Et il leur dit: Cela suffit.
39 Après être sorti, il alla, selon sa coutume, à la montagne des Oliviers. Ses disciples le suivirent.
40 Lorsqu'il fut arrivé dans ce lieu, il leur dit: Priez, afin que vous ne tombiez pas en tentation.
41 Puis il s'éloigna d'eux à la distance d'environ un jet de pierre, et, s'étant mis à genoux, il pria,
42 disant: Père, si tu voulais éloigner de moi cette coupe! Toutefois, que ma volonté ne se fasse pas, mais la tienne.
43 Alors un ange lui apparut du ciel, pour le fortifier.
44 Étant en agonie, il priait plus instamment, et sa sueur devint comme des grumeaux de sang, qui tombaient à terre.
45 Après avoir prié, il se leva, et vint vers les disciples, qu'il trouva endormis de tristesse,
46 et il leur dit: Pourquoi dormez-vous? Levez-vous et priez, afin que vous ne tombiez pas en tentation.
47 Comme il parlait encore, voici, une foule arriva; et celui qui s'appelait Judas, l'un des douze, marchait devant elle. Il s'approcha de Jésus, pour le baiser.
48 Et Jésus lui dit: Judas, c'est par un baiser que tu livres le Fils de l'homme!
49 Ceux qui étaient avec Jésus, voyant ce qui allait arriver, dirent: Seigneur, frapperons-nous de l'épée?
50 Et l'un d'eux frappa le serviteur du souverain sacrificateur, et lui emporta l'oreille droite.
51 Mais Jésus, prenant la parole, dit: Laissez, arrêtez! Et, ayant touché l'oreille de cet homme, il le guérit.
52 Jésus dit ensuite aux principaux sacrificateurs, aux chefs des gardes du temple, et aux anciens, qui étaient venus contre lui: Vous êtes venus, comme après un brigand, avec des épées et des bâtons.
53 J'étais tous les jours avec vous dans le temple, et vous n'avez pas mis la main sur moi. Mais c'est ici votre heure, et la puissance des ténèbres.
54 Après avoir saisi Jésus, ils l'emmenèrent, et le conduisirent dans la maison du souverain sacrificateur. Pierre suivait de loin.
55 Ils allumèrent du feu au milieu de la cour, et ils s'assirent. Pierre s'assit parmi eux.
56 Une servante, qui le vit assis devant le feu, fixa sur lui les regards, et dit: Cet homme était aussi avec lui.
57 Mais il le nia disant: Femme, je ne le connais pas.
58 Peu après, un autre, l'ayant vu, dit: Tu es aussi de ces gens-là. Et Pierre dit: Homme, je n'en suis pas.
59 Environ une heure plus tard, un autre insistait, disant: Certainement cet homme était aussi avec lui, car il est Galiléen.
60 Pierre répondit: Homme, je ne sais ce que tu dis. Au même instant, comme il parlait encore, le coq chanta.
61 Le Seigneur, s'étant retourné, regarda Pierre. Et Pierre se souvint de la parole que le Seigneur lui avait dite: Avant que le coq chante aujourd'hui, tu me renieras trois fois.
62 Et étant sorti, il pleura amèrement.
63 Les hommes qui tenaient Jésus se moquaient de lui, et le frappaient.
64 Ils lui voilèrent le visage, et ils l'interrogeaient, en disant: Devine qui t'a frappé.
65 Et ils proféraient contre lui beaucoup d'autres injures.
66 Quand le jour fut venu, le collège des anciens du peuple, les principaux sacrificateurs et les scribes, s'assemblèrent, et firent amener Jésus dans leur sanhédrin.
67 Ils dirent: Si tu es le Christ, dis-le nous. Jésus leur répondit: Si je vous le dis, vous ne le croirez pas;
68 et, si je vous interroge, vous ne répondrez pas.
69 Désormais le Fils de l'homme sera assis à la droite de la puissance de Dieu.
70 Tous dirent: Tu es donc le Fils de Dieu? Et il leur répondit: Vous le dites, je le suis.
71 Alors ils dirent: Qu'avons-nous encore besoin de témoignage? Nous l'avons entendu nous-mêmes de sa bouche.

Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus(A)
22 Now the Festival of Unleavened Bread, called the Passover, was approaching,(B) 2 and the chief priests and the teachers of the law were looking for some way to get rid of Jesus,(C) for they were afraid of the people. 3 Then Satan(D) entered Judas, called Iscariot,(E) one of the Twelve. 4 And Judas went to the chief priests and the officers of the temple guard(F) and discussed with them how he might betray Jesus. 5 They were delighted and agreed to give him money.(G) 6 He consented, and watched for an opportunity to hand Jesus over to them when no crowd was present.
The Last Supper(H)(I)(J)(K)(L)
7 Then came the day of Unleavened Bread on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.(M) 8 Jesus sent Peter and John,(N) saying, “Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover.”
9 “Where do you want us to prepare for it?” they asked.
10 He replied, “As you enter the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him to the house that he enters, 11 and say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher asks: Where is the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 12 He will show you a large room upstairs, all furnished. Make preparations there.”
13 They left and found things just as Jesus had told them.(O) So they prepared the Passover.
14 When the hour came, Jesus and his apostles(P) reclined at the table.(Q) 15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.(R) 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”(S)
17 After taking the cup, he gave thanks and said, “Take this and divide it among you. 18 For I tell you I will not drink again from the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it,(T) and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”
20 In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant(U) in my blood, which is poured out for you.[a] 21 But the hand of him who is going to betray me is with mine on the table.(V) 22 The Son of Man(W) will go as it has been decreed.(X) But woe to that man who betrays him!” 23 They began to question among themselves which of them it might be who would do this.
24 A dispute also arose among them as to which of them was considered to be greatest.(Y) 25 Jesus said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who exercise authority over them call themselves Benefactors. 26 But you are not to be like that. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest,(Z) and the one who rules like the one who serves.(AA) 27 For who is greater, the one who is at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who is at the table? But I am among you as one who serves.(AB) 28 You are those who have stood by me in my trials. 29 And I confer on you a kingdom,(AC) just as my Father conferred one on me, 30 so that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom(AD) and sit on thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.(AE)
31 “Simon, Simon, Satan has asked(AF) to sift all of you as wheat.(AG) 32 But I have prayed for you,(AH) Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”(AI)
33 But he replied, “Lord, I am ready to go with you to prison and to death.”(AJ)
34 Jesus answered, “I tell you, Peter, before the rooster crows today, you will deny three times that you know me.”
35 Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you without purse, bag or sandals,(AK) did you lack anything?”
“Nothing,” they answered.
36 He said to them, “But now if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one. 37 It is written: ‘And he was numbered with the transgressors’[b];(AL) and I tell you that this must be fulfilled in me. Yes, what is written about me is reaching its fulfillment.”
38 The disciples said, “See, Lord, here are two swords.”
“That’s enough!” he replied.
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives(AM)
39 Jesus went out as usual(AN) to the Mount of Olives,(AO) and his disciples followed him. 40 On reaching the place, he said to them, “Pray that you will not fall into temptation.”(AP) 41 He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, knelt down(AQ) and prayed, 42 “Father, if you are willing, take this cup(AR) from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.”(AS) 43 An angel from heaven appeared to him and strengthened him.(AT) 44 And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground.[c]
45 When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. 46 “Why are you sleeping?” he asked them. “Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.”(AU)
Jesus Arrested(AV)
47 While he was still speaking a crowd came up, and the man who was called Judas, one of the Twelve, was leading them. He approached Jesus to kiss him, 48 but Jesus asked him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”
49 When Jesus’ followers saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?”(AW) 50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.
51 But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.
52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests, the officers of the temple guard,(AX) and the elders, who had come for him, “Am I leading a rebellion, that you have come with swords and clubs? 53 Every day I was with you in the temple courts,(AY) and you did not lay a hand on me. But this is your hour(AZ)—when darkness reigns.”(BA)
Peter Disowns Jesus(BB)
54 Then seizing him, they led him away and took him into the house of the high priest.(BC) Peter followed at a distance.(BD) 55 And when some there had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and had sat down together, Peter sat down with them. 56 A servant girl saw him seated there in the firelight. She looked closely at him and said, “This man was with him.”
57 But he denied it. “Woman, I don’t know him,” he said.
58 A little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.”
“Man, I am not!” Peter replied.
59 About an hour later another asserted, “Certainly this fellow was with him, for he is a Galilean.”(BE)
60 Peter replied, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Just as he was speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 The Lord(BF) turned and looked straight at Peter. Then Peter remembered the word the Lord had spoken to him: “Before the rooster crows today, you will disown me three times.”(BG) 62 And he went outside and wept bitterly.
The Guards Mock Jesus(BH)
63 The men who were guarding Jesus began mocking and beating him. 64 They blindfolded him and demanded, “Prophesy! Who hit you?” 65 And they said many other insulting things to him.(BI)
Jesus Before Pilate and Herod(BJ)(BK)(BL)
66 At daybreak the council(BM) of the elders of the people, both the chief priests and the teachers of the law, met together,(BN) and Jesus was led before them. 67 “If you are the Messiah,” they said, “tell us.”
Jesus answered, “If I tell you, you will not believe me, 68 and if I asked you, you would not answer.(BO) 69 But from now on, the Son of Man will be seated at the right hand of the mighty God.”(BP)
70 They all asked, “Are you then the Son of God?”(BQ)
He replied, “You say that I am.”(BR)
71 Then they said, “Why do we need any more testimony? We have heard it from his own lips.”

English Standard Version
The Plot to Kill Jesus
22 (A)Now the Feast of Unleavened Bread drew near, which is called (B)the Passover. 2 And the chief priests and the scribes (C)were seeking how to put him to death, for they feared the people.
Judas to Betray Jesus
3 (D)Then (E)Satan entered into (F)Judas called Iscariot, who was of the number of the twelve. 4 He went away and conferred with the chief priests and (G)officers how he might betray him to them. 5 And they were glad, and agreed to give him money. 6 So he consented and sought an opportunity to (H)betray him to them in the absence of a crowd.
The Passover with the Disciples
7 (I)Then came (J)the day of Unleavened Bread, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed. 8 So Jesus[a] sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us, that we may eat it.” 9 They said to him, “Where will you have us prepare it?” 10 He said to them, “Behold, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters 11 and tell the master of the house, (K)‘The Teacher says to you, Where is (L)the guest room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ 12 And he will show you (M)a large upper room furnished; prepare it there.” 13 And they went and found it (N)just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.
Institution of the Lord's Supper
14 (O)And when the hour came, he reclined at table, and the apostles with him. 15 And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer. 16 For I tell you I will not eat it[b] (P)until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” 17 And he took a cup, and (Q)when he had given thanks he said, “Take this, and divide it among yourselves. 18 (R)For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine (S)until the kingdom of God comes.” 19 (T)And he took bread, and (U)when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, (V)“This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me.” 20 And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, (W)“This cup that is poured out for you is (X)the new (Y)covenant in my blood.[c] 21 (Z)But behold, the hand of him who betrays me is (AA)with me on the table. 22 For the Son of Man goes (AB)as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom he is betrayed!” 23 And they began to question one another, which of them it could be who was going to do this.
Who Is the Greatest?
24 (AC)A dispute also arose among them, as to which of them was to be regarded as the greatest. 25 (AD)And he said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles (AE)exercise lordship over them, and those in authority over them are called benefactors. 26 (AF)But not so with you. Rather, let (AG)the greatest among you become as the youngest, and the leader as one who serves. 27 For who is the greater, (AH)one who reclines at table or one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at table? But (AI)I am among you as the one who serves.
28 “You are those who have stayed with me (AJ)in my trials, 29 and (AK)I assign to you, as my Father assigned to me, a kingdom, 30 (AL)that you may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom and (AM)sit on thrones judging (AN)the twelve tribes of Israel.
Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial
31 “Simon, Simon, behold, (AO)Satan demanded to have you,[d] (AP)that he might sift you like wheat, 32 but (AQ)I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, (AR)strengthen your brothers.” 33 Peter[e] said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both (AS)to prison and (AT)to death.” 34 (AU)Jesus[f] said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you deny three times that you know me.”
Scripture Must Be Fulfilled in Jesus
35 And he said to them, (AV)“When I sent you out with no moneybag or knapsack or sandals, did you lack anything?” They said, “Nothing.” 36 He said to them, “But now let the one who has a moneybag take it, and likewise a knapsack. And let the one who has no sword sell his cloak and buy one. 37 For I tell you that (AW)this Scripture must be fulfilled in me: (AX)‘And he was numbered with the transgressors.’ For (AY)what is written about me has its fulfillment.” 38 And they said, “Look, Lord, here are two (AZ)swords.” And he said to them, (BA)“It is enough.”
Jesus Prays on the Mount of Olives
39 (BB)And he came out and went, (BC)as was his custom, to (BD)the Mount of Olives, and the disciples followed him. 40 (BE)And when he came to (BF)the place, he said to them, (BG)“Pray that you may not (BH)enter into temptation.” 41 And he withdrew from them about a stone's throw, and (BI)knelt down and prayed, 42 saying, (BJ)“Father, if you are willing, remove (BK)this cup from me. (BL)Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.” 43 And there appeared to him (BM)an angel from heaven, strengthening him. 44 And (BN)being in agony he prayed more earnestly; and his sweat became like great drops of blood falling down to the ground.[g] 45 And when he rose from prayer, he came to the disciples and found them sleeping for sorrow, 46 and he said to them, “Why are you sleeping? Rise and (BO)pray that you may not enter into temptation.”
Betrayal and Arrest of Jesus
47 (BP)While he was still speaking, there came a crowd, and the man called (BQ)Judas, one of the twelve, was leading them. He drew near to Jesus to kiss him, 48 but Jesus said to him, “Judas, would you betray the Son of Man with a kiss?” 49 And when those who were around him saw what would follow, they said, “Lord, shall we strike (BR)with the sword?” 50 And one of them struck the servant[h] of the high priest and cut off his right ear. 51 But Jesus said, “No more of this!” And he touched his ear and healed him. 52 Then Jesus said to the chief priests and (BS)officers of the temple and elders, who had come out against him, “Have you come out as against a robber, with swords and clubs? 53 When (BT)I was with you day after day in the temple, you did not lay hands on me. But this is (BU)your hour, and (BV)the power of darkness.”
Peter Denies Jesus
54 (BW)Then they seized him and led him away, bringing him into the high priest's house, (BX)and Peter was following at a distance. 55 (BY)And when they had kindled a fire in the middle of (BZ)the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them. 56 Then a servant girl, seeing him as he sat in the light and looking closely at him, said, “This man also was with him.” 57 But he denied it, saying, “Woman, I do not know him.” 58 And a little later someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.” 59 And after an interval of about an hour still another (CA)insisted, saying, “Certainly this man also was with him, for he too is a Galilean.” 60 But Peter said, “Man, I do not know what you are talking about.” And immediately, while he was still speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 And the Lord turned and (CB)looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, (CC)“Before the rooster crows today, you will (CD)deny me three times.” 62 And he went out and wept bitterly.
Jesus Is Mocked
63 (CE)Now the men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him. 64 (CF)They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, (CG)“Prophesy! (CH)Who is it that struck you?” 65 And they said many other things against him, (CI)blaspheming him.
Jesus Before the Council
66 (CJ)When day came, (CK)the assembly of the elders of the people gathered together, both chief priests and scribes. And they led him away to their (CL)council, and they (CM)said, 67 (CN)“If you are (CO)the Christ, tell us.” But he said to them, “If I tell you, you will not believe, 68 and if I ask you, you will not answer. 69 But from now on the Son of Man shall be seated (CP)at the right hand of the power of God.” 70 So they all said, “Are you (CQ)the Son of God, then?” And he said to them, (CR)“You say that I am.” 71 Then they said, “What further testimony do we need? We have heard it ourselves from his own lips.”

VI. LA PASSIONE
Complotto contro Gesù e tradimento di Giuda
22 Si avvicinava la festa degli Azzimi, chiamata Pasqua, 2 e i sommi sacerdoti e gli scribi cercavano come toglierlo di mezzo, poiché temevano il popolo. 3 Allora satana entrò in Giuda, detto Iscariota, che era nel numero dei Dodici. 4 Ed egli andò a discutere con i sommi sacerdoti e i capi delle guardie sul modo di consegnarlo nelle loro mani. 5 Essi si rallegrarono e si accordarono di dargli del denaro. 6 Egli fu d'accordo e cercava l'occasione propizia per consegnarlo loro di nascosto dalla folla.
Preparativi della cena pasquale
7 Venne il giorno degli Azzimi, nel quale si doveva immolare la vittima di Pasqua. 8 Gesù mandò Pietro e Giovanni dicendo: «Andate a preparare per noi la Pasqua, perché possiamo mangiare». 9 Gli chiesero: «Dove vuoi che la prepariamo?». 10 Ed egli rispose: «Appena entrati in città, vi verrà incontro un uomo che porta una brocca d'acqua. Seguitelo nella casa dove entrerà 11 e direte al padrone di casa: Il Maestro ti dice: Dov'è la stanza in cui posso mangiare la Pasqua con i miei discepoli? 12 Egli vi mostrerà una sala al piano superiore, grande e addobbata; là preparate». 13 Essi andarono e trovarono tutto come aveva loro detto e prepararono la Pasqua.
La cena pasquale
14 Quando fu l'ora, prese posto a tavola e gli apostoli con lui, 15 e disse: «Ho desiderato ardentemente di mangiare questa Pasqua con voi, prima della mia passione, 16 poiché vi dico: non la mangerò più, finché essa non si compia nel regno di Dio». 17 E preso un calice, rese grazie e disse: «Prendetelo e distribuitelo tra voi, 18 poiché vi dico: da questo momento non berrò più del frutto della vite, finché non venga il regno di Dio».
Istituzione dell'Eucaristia
19 Poi, preso un pane, rese grazie, lo spezzò e lo diede loro dicendo: «Questo è il mio corpo che è dato per voi; fate questo in memoria di me». 20 Allo stesso modo dopo aver cenato, prese il calice dicendo: «Questo calice è la nuova alleanza nel mio sangue, che viene versato per voi».
Annunzio del tradimento di Giuda
21 «Ma ecco, la mano di chi mi tradisce è con me, sulla tavola. 22 Il Figlio dell'uomo se ne va, secondo quanto è stabilito; ma guai a quell'uomo dal quale è tradito!». 23 Allora essi cominciarono a domandarsi a vicenda chi di essi avrebbe fatto ciò.
Chi è il più grande?
24 Sorse anche una discussione, chi di loro poteva esser considerato il più grande. 25 Egli disse: «I re delle nazioni le governano, e coloro che hanno il potere su di esse si fanno chiamare benefattori. 26 Per voi però non sia così; ma chi è il più grande tra voi diventi come il più piccolo e chi governa come colui che serve. 27 Infatti chi è più grande, chi sta a tavola o chi serve? Non è forse colui che sta a tavola? Eppure io sto in mezzo a voi come colui che serve.
Ricompensa promessa agli apostoli
28 Voi siete quelli che avete perseverato con me nelle mie prove; 29 e io preparo per voi un regno, come il Padre l'ha preparato per me, 30 perché possiate mangiare e bere alla mia mensa nel mio regno e siederete in trono a giudicare le dodici tribù di Israele.
Annunzio del ritorno e del ringraziamento di Pietro
31 Simone, Simone, ecco satana vi ha cercato per vagliarvi come il grano; 32 ma io ho pregato per te, che non venga meno la tua fede; e tu, una volta ravveduto, conferma i tuoi fratelli». 33 E Pietro gli disse: «Signore, con te sono pronto ad andare in prigione e alla morte». 34 Gli rispose: «Pietro, io ti dico: non canterà oggi il gallo prima che tu per tre volte avrai negato di conoscermi».
L'ora del combattimento decisivo
35 Poi disse: «Quando vi ho mandato senza borsa, né bisaccia, né sandali, vi è forse mancato qualcosa?». Risposero: «Nulla». 36 Ed egli soggiunse: «Ma ora, chi ha una borsa la prenda, e così una bisaccia; chi non ha spada, venda il mantello e ne compri una. 37 Perché vi dico: deve compiersi in me questa parola della Scrittura: E fu annoverato tra i malfattori. Infatti tutto quello che mi riguarda volge al suo termine». 38 Ed essi dissero: «Signore, ecco qui due spade». Ma egli rispose «Basta!».
Sul monte degli Ulivi
39 Uscito se ne andò, come al solito, al monte degli Ulivi; anche i discepoli lo seguirono. 40 Giunto sul luogo, disse loro: «Pregate, per non entrare in tentazione». 41 Poi si allontanò da loro quasi un tiro di sasso e, inginocchiatosi, pregava: 42 «Padre, se vuoi, allontana da me questo calice! Tuttavia non sia fatta la mia, ma la tua volontà». 43 Gli apparve allora un angelo dal cielo a confortarlo. 44 In preda all'angoscia, pregava più intensamente; e il suo sudore diventò come gocce di sangue che cadevano a terra. 45 Poi, rialzatosi dalla preghiera, andò dai discepoli e li trovò che dormivano per la tristezza. 46 E disse loro: «Perché dormite? Alzatevi e pregate, per non entrare in tentazione».
L'arresto di Gesù
47 Mentre egli ancora parlava, ecco una turba di gente; li precedeva colui che si chiamava Giuda, uno dei Dodici, e si accostò a Gesù per baciarlo. 48 Gesù gli disse: «Giuda, con un bacio tradisci il Figlio dell'uomo?». 49 Allora quelli che eran con lui, vedendo ciò che stava per accadere, dissero: «Signore, dobbiamo colpire con la spada?». 50 E uno di loro colpì il servo del sommo sacerdote e gli staccò l'orecchio destro. 51 Ma Gesù intervenne dicendo: «Lasciate, basta così!». E toccandogli l'orecchio, lo guarì. 52 Poi Gesù disse a coloro che gli eran venuti contro, sommi sacerdoti, capi delle guardie del tempio e anziani: «Siete usciti con spade e bastoni come contro un brigante? 53 Ogni giorno ero con voi nel tempio e non avete steso le mani contro di me; ma questa è la vostra ora, è l'impero delle tenebre».
Rinnegamenti di Pietro
54 Dopo averlo preso, lo condussero via e lo fecero entrare nella casa del sommo sacerdote. Pietro lo seguiva da lontano. 55 Siccome avevano acceso un fuoco in mezzo al cortile e si erano seduti attorno, anche Pietro si sedette in mezzo a loro. 56 Vedutolo seduto presso la fiamma, una serva fissandolo disse: «Anche questi era con lui». 57 Ma egli negò dicendo: «Donna, non lo conosco!». 58 Poco dopo un altro lo vide e disse: «Anche tu sei di loro!». Ma Pietro rispose: «No, non lo sono!». 59 Passata circa un'ora, un altro insisteva: «In verità, anche questo era con lui; è anche lui un Galileo». 60 Ma Pietro disse: «O uomo, non so quello che dici». E in quell'istante, mentre ancora parlava, un gallo cantò. 61 Allora il Signore, voltatosi, guardò Pietro, e Pietro si ricordò delle parole che il Signore gli aveva detto: «Prima che il gallo canti, oggi mi rinnegherai tre volte». 62 E, uscito, pianse amaramente.
Primi oltraggi
63 Frattanto gli uomini che avevano in custodia Gesù lo schernivano e lo percuotevano, 64 lo bendavano e gli dicevano: «Indovina: chi ti ha colpito?». 65 E molti altri insulti dicevano contro di lui.
Gesù davanti al sinedrio
66 Appena fu giorno, si riunì il consiglio degli anziani del popolo, con i sommi sacerdoti e gli scribi; lo condussero davanti al sinedrio e gli dissero: 67 «Se tu sei il Cristo, diccelo». Gesù rispose: «Anche se ve lo dico, non mi crederete; 68 se vi interrogo, non mi risponderete. 69 Ma da questo momento starà il Figlio dell'uomo seduto alla destra della potenza di Dio». 70 Allora tutti esclamarono: «Tu dunque sei il Figlio di Dio?». Ed egli disse loro: «Lo dite voi stessi: io lo sono». 71 Risposero: «Che bisogno abbiamo ancora di testimonianza? L'abbiamo udito noi stessi dalla sua bocca».
