9. You may be sure that wherever the good news is told all over the world, people will remember what she has done. And they will tell others.
10. Judas Iscariot was one of the twelve disciples. He went to the chief priests and offered to help them arrest Jesus.
11. They were glad to hear this, and they promised to pay him. So Judas started looking for a good chance to betray Jesus.
12. It was the first day of the Festival of Thin Bread, and the Passover lambs were being killed. Jesus' disciples asked him, “Where do you want us to prepare the Passover meal?”
13. Jesus said to two of the disciples, “Go into the city, where you will meet a man carrying a jar of water. Follow him,
14. and when he goes into a house, say to the owner, ‘Our teacher wants to know if you have a room where he can eat the Passover meal with his disciples.’
15. The owner will take you upstairs and show you a large room furnished and ready for you to use. Prepare the meal there.”
16. The two disciples went into the city and found everything just as Jesus had told them. So they prepared the Passover meal.
17-18. While Jesus and the twelve disciples were eating together that evening, he said, “The one who will betray me is now eating with me.”
19. This made the disciples sad, and one after another they said to Jesus, “Surely you don't mean me!”
20. He answered, “It is one of you twelve men who is eating from this dish with me.
21. The Son of Man will die, just as the Scriptures say. But it is going to be terrible for the one who betrays me. That man would be better off if he had never been born.”
