14:12	And on the first day of Unleavened Bread, when they immolate the Passover, the disciples said to him, “Where do you want us to go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?”
14:13	And he sent two of his disciples, and he said to them: “Go into the city. And you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him.
14:14	And wherever he will have entered, say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says: Where is my dining room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’
14:15	And he will show you a large cenacle, fully furnished. And there, you shall prepare it for us.”
14:16	And his disciples departed and went into the city. And they found it just as he had told them. And they prepared the Passover.
14:22	And while eating with them, Jesus took bread. And blessing it, he broke it and gave it to them, and he said: “Take. This is my body.”
14:23	And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them. And they all drank from it.
14:24	And he said to them: “This is my blood of the new covenant, which shall be shed for many.
14:25	Amen I say to you, that I will no longer drink from this fruit of the vine, until that day when I will drink it new in the kingdom of God.”
14:26	And having sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
