17 As the evening approached, Yeshua went in for dinner with his twelve trainees. 18 [ref]As they were sitting around eating, he told them, “I will tell you frankly that one of you eating with me here will hand me over to be arrested.” 19 That upset them, and several of them individually asked, “Surely it couldn’t be me?”

20 Then he continued, “It’s one of the twelve—the one who dips his bread in the sauce at the same time as me. 21 Indeed it’s written in the scriptures that humanity’s child will be arrested, but on the other hand, what a tragedy it will be for the one who hands him over—in fact it would be better for that man if he was never born.”

22 As the carried on eating, he took a bread roll, blessed God, broke the roll apart and gave a piece to them, saying, “Take this bread—it’s my body.”

23 Then he picked up a cup, gave thanks to God, and passed it around so they could each drink from it, 24 [ref]saying, “This is the blood of my contract that will be poured out for many people. 25 I can assure you that I won’t drink anything made from grapes until I drink new juice in God’s kingdom.”

26 And after they’d sung some songs, they left the town and went across to the Mount of Olives.
