1Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover. 2And the hie Priests and Scribes sought how they might kill him: for they feared the people. 3Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve. 4And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them. 5So they were glad, and agreed to giue him money. 6And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude. 7Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed. 8And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat. 9And they saide to him, Where wilt thou, that we prepare it? 10Then he said vnto them, Beholde, when ye be entred into the citie, there shall a man meete you, bearing a pitcher of water: folowe him into the house that he entreth in, 11And say vnto the good man of the house, The Master saith vnto thee, Where is the lodging where I shall eate my Passeouer with my disciples? 12Then he shall shewe you a great hie chamber trimmed: there make it ready. 13So they went, and found as he had said vnto them, and made readie the Passeouer. 14And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him. 15And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer: 16For I say vnto you, Hencefoorth I will not eate of it any more, vntill it bee fulfilled in the kingdome of God. 17And hee tooke the cup, and gaue thankes, and said, Take this, and deuide it among you, 18For I say vnto you, I will not drinke of the fruite of the vine, vntill the kingdome of God be come. 19And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake [it], and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me. 20Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup [is] the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you. 21But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me [is] with me on the table. 22And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed! 23Then they began to enquire among themselues which of them it should be, that should do that. 24And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest. 25And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors. 26But yee shall not be so: but let the greatest among you be as the least: and the chiefest as he that serueth. 27For who is greater, he that sitteth at table, or he that serueth? Is not he that sitteth at table? And I am among you as he that serueth. 28Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. 29Therefore I appoint vnto you a kingdome, as my Father hath appointed vnto me, 30That ye may eate, and drinke at my table in my kingdome, and sit on seates, and iudge the twelue tribes of Israel. 31And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired [to have] you, that he may sift [you] as wheat: 32But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren. 33And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death. 34But he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cocke shall not crowe this day, before thou hast thrise denied that thou knewest me. 35And he saide vnto them, When I sent you without bagge, and scrip, and shooes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. 36Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take [it], and likewise [his] scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. 37For I say vnto you, That yet the same which is written, must be perfourmed in me, Euen with the wicked was he nombred: for doubtlesse those things which are written of me, haue an ende. 38And they said, Lord, beholde, here are two swordes; he said vnto them, It is ynough. 39And he came out, and went (as he was wont) to the mount of Oliues: and his disciples also followed him. 40And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation. 41And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42Saying, Father, if thou wilt, take away this cuppe from mee: neuerthelesse, not my will, but thine be done. 43And there appeared an Angell vnto him from heauen, comforting him. 44And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground. 45And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow, 46And he said vnto them, Why sleepe ye? rise and pray, least ye enter into tentation. 47And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him. 48And Iesus saide vnto him, Iudas, betrayest thou the Sonne of man with a kisse? 49When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword? 50And one of them smote a seruant of the hie Priest, and strooke off his right eare. 51Then Iesus answered, and said, Suffer them thus farre: and he touched his eare, & healed him. 52Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves? 53When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness. 54Then took they him, and led [him], and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off. 55And when they had kindled a fire in the middes of the hall, and were set downe together, Peter also sate downe among them. 56And a certaine mayde behelde him as hee sate by the fire, and hauing well looked on him, said, This man was also with him. 57But he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not. 58And after a little while, another man sawe him, and saide, Thou art also of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not. 59And about the space of an houre after, a certaine other affirmed, saying. Verely euen this man was with him: for he is also a Galilean. 60And Peter saide, Man, I knowe not what thou sayest; immediatly while hee yet spake, the cocke crewe. 61Then the Lorde turned backe, and looked vpon Peter: and Peter remembred the worde of the Lord, how he had said vnto him, Before the cocke crowe, thou shalt denie me thrise. 62And Peter went out, and wept bitterly. 63And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote [him]. 64And when they had blindfolded him, they smote him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophecie who it is that smote thee. 65And many other thinges blasphemously spake they against him. 66And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying, 67Saying, Art thou that Christ? tell vs; he said vnto them, If I tell you, ye wil not beleeue it. 68And if also I aske you, you will not answere me, nor let me goe. 69Hereafter shall the Sonne of man sit at the right hand of the power of God. 70Then sayd they all, Art thou then ye Sonne of God? And he sayd to them, Ye say, that I am. 71Then sayd they, What neede we any further witnes? for we our selues haue heard it of his owne mouth.
