Mark 14:12-16

International Standard Version

The Passover with the Disciples^(A)

¹² On the first day of the Festival^[a] of Unleavened Bread, when the Passover lamb is sacrificed, Jesus’^[b] disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to go and make preparations for you to eat the Passover meal?”

¹³ He sent two of his disciples, telling them, “Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a jug of water. Follow him. ¹⁴ When he goes into a house,^[c] say to its owner that the Teacher asks, ‘Where is my room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?’ ¹⁵ Then he will show you a large upstairs room that is furnished and ready. Get everything ready for us there.” ¹⁶ So the disciples left and went into the city. They found everything just as Jesus^[d] had told them, and they prepared the Passover meal.
