8Jesus sent Peter and John and told them, “Go, prepare the Passover lamb for us to eat.” 9They asked him, “Where do you want us to prepare it?” He told them, “Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a jug of water. Follow him into the house he enters. 11Tell the owner of the house that the teacher asks, ‘Where is the room where I can eat the Passover meal with my disciples?’ 12He will take you upstairs and show you a large furnished room. Get things ready there.”
