Judas’ Bargain

^14 (A)Then one of the twelve, named ^(B)Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests

²³ And He answered, “^(A)He who dipped his hand with Me in the bowl is the one who will betray Me.

Jesus’ Betrayal and Arrest

^47 (A)And while He was still speaking, behold, ^(B)Judas, one of the twelve, came ^[a]accompanied by a large crowd with swords and clubs, who came from the chief priests and elders of the people. ⁴⁸ Now he who was betraying Him gave them a sign previously, saying, “Whomever I kiss, He is the one; arrest Him.” ⁴⁹ And immediately Judas went up to Jesus and said, “Greetings, ^(C)Rabbi!” and kissed Him. ⁵⁰ But Jesus said to him, “^(D)Friend, do what you have come for.” Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and arrested Him.

^17 (A)When it was evening He *came with the twelve. ¹⁸ And as they were reclining at the table and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I say to you that one of you will ^[a]betray Me—^[b]one who is eating with Me.” ¹⁹ They began to be grieved and to say to Him one by one, “Surely not I?” ²⁰ But He said to them, “It is one of the twelve, the one who dips bread with Me in the bowl. ²¹ For the Son of Man is going away just as it is written about Him; but woe to that man ^[c]by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good ^[d]for that man if he had not been born.”

¹⁹ And when He had taken some bread and ^(A)given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, which is being given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” ²⁰ And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup, which is ^(B)poured out for you, is the ^(C)new covenant in My blood. ^21 (D)But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with ^[a]Mine on the table. ²² For indeed, the Son of Man is going ^(E)as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” ²³ And they began to debate among themselves which one of them it was who was going to do this.

⁴⁸ But Jesus said to him, “Judas, are you betraying the Son of Man with a kiss?”

^18 (A)I am not speaking about all of you. I know the ones whom I have ^(B)chosen; but this is happening ^(C)so that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘^(D)He who eats My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’ ¹⁹ From now on ^(E)I am telling you before it happens, so that when it does happen, you may believe that ^(F)I am He. ²⁰ Truly, truly I say to you, ^(G)the one who ^[a]receives anyone I send, ^[b]receives Me; and the one who ^[c]receives Me ^[d]receives Him who sent Me.”

Jesus Predicts His Betrayal

²¹ When Jesus had said these things, He ^(H)became troubled in spirit, and ^[e]testified and said, “Truly, truly I say to you that ^(I)one of you will ^[f]betray Me.” ²² The disciples began looking at one another, ^(J)at a loss to know of which one He was speaking. ²³ Lying back on ^(K)Jesus’ chest was one of His disciples, ^(L)whom Jesus loved. ²⁴ So Simon Peter *nodded to this disciple and *said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking.” ²⁵ He then simply ^(M)leaned back on Jesus’ chest and *said to Him, “Lord, who is it?” ²⁶ Jesus then *answered, “That man is the one for whom I shall dip the piece of bread and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the piece of bread, He *took and *gave it to Judas, ^(N)the son of Simon Iscariot. ²⁷ After ^[g]this, ^(O)Satan then ^(P)entered him. Therefore Jesus *said to him, “What you are doing, do it quickly.” ²⁸ Now none of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him. ²⁹ For some were assuming, since Judas ^(Q)kept the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we need ^(R)for the feast”; or else, that he was to ^[h](S)give something to the poor. ³⁰ So after receiving the piece of bread, he left immediately; and ^(T)it was night.

² Now Judas, who was ^[a]betraying Him, also knew the place, because Jesus had ^(A)often met there with His disciples. ^3 (B)So Judas, having obtained ^(C)the Roman ^[b]cohort and ^(D)officers from the chief priests and the Pharisees, *came there with lanterns, ^(E)torches, and weapons. ⁴ Jesus therefore, ^(F)knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, came out into the open and *said to them, “^(G)Whom are you seeking?” ⁵ They answered Him, “Jesus the Nazarene.” He *said to them, “I am He.” And Judas also, who was betraying Him, was standing with them.
