Mark 14:12-18

New Catholic Bible

¹² The Preparations for the Passover.^[a] On the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread, when it was customary to sacrifice the Passover lamb, the disciples said to Jesus, “Where do you want us to go and make the preparations for you to eat the Passover?”

¹³ He sent forth two of his disciples, instructing them: “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jug of water will meet you. Follow him! ¹⁴ Wherever he enters, say to the master of the house, ‘The Teacher asks: “Where is the room where I can eat the Passover with my disciples?” ’ ¹⁵ Then he will show you a large upper room furnished and ready. Make the preparations for us there.” ¹⁶ The disciples went forth, entered the city, and found everything just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

¹⁷ The Treachery of Judas Foretold.^[b] Now when evening came, he arrived with the Twelve. ¹⁸ And as they reclined at table and were eating, Jesus said, “Amen, I say to you, one of you will betray me, one who is eating with me.”
