20 And when the evening was come he lay down at table with the twelve.
And when evening was come, he comes with the twelve. And as they lay at table and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I say to you, One of you shall deliver me up; he who is eating with me. And they began to be grieved, and to say to him, one by one, Is it *I*? [and another, Is it *I*?] But he answered and said to them, One of the twelve, he who dips with me in the dish. The Son of man goes indeed as it is written concerning him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is delivered up; [it were] good for that man if he had not been born.
Having said these things, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you shall deliver me up.
While the king is at his table, My spikenard sendeth forth its fragrance.
And when the hour was come, he placed himself at table, and the [twelve] apostles with him. And he said to them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer. For I say unto you, that I will not eat any more at all of it until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.
