Luke 22:7-18

7Then the day for the feast of Unleavened Bread came, on which the Passover lamb had to be sacrificed.

8Jesus sent Peter and John, saying, “Go and prepare the Passover for us to eat.”

9They said to him, “Where do you want us to prepare it?”

10He said to them, “Listen, when you have entered the city, a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him into the house that he enters,

11and tell the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says to you, “Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?”’

12Then he will show you a large furnished room upstairs. Make preparations there.”

13So they went and found things just as he had told them, and they prepared the Passover.

14Now when the hour came, Jesus took his place at the table and the apostles joined him.

15And he said to them, “I have earnestly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.

16For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”

17Then he took a cup, and after giving thanks he said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves.

18For I tell you that from now on I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
