But the days of therf loaves came, in which it was need, that the sacrifice of pask were slain [in which it was need, that pask, that is, the sacrifice of pask, be slain].

And he sent Peter and John, and said [saying], Go ye, and make ready to us the pask, that we eat.

And they said, Where wilt thou, that we make ready?

10 And he said to them, Lo! when ye shall enter into the city, a man bearing a vessel of water shall meet you; follow ye him into the house, into which he entereth.

11 And ye shall say to the husbandman of the house, The master saith to thee, Where is a chamber [Where is the harbourgerie], where I shall eat the pask with my disciples?

12 And he shall show to you a great supping place strewed, and there make ye ready.

13 And they went, and found as he said to them, and they made ready the pask.

14 And when the hour was come, he sat to the meat [he sat to meat], and the twelve apostles with him.

21 Nevertheless lo! the hand of him that betrayeth me, is with me at the table.
