6. But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. Why do you cause trouble for her? She’s done Me a mitzvah.
7. For you always have the poor with you, and you can do good for them whenever you want; but you won’t always have Me.
8. She did what she could—she came beforehand to anoint My body for burial.
9. Amen, I tell you, wherever the Good News is proclaimed in all the world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.”
10. Then Judah from Kriot, one of the Twelve, went out to the ruling kohanim to betray Yeshua to them.
11. They were delighted when they heard this and promised to give him money. And Judah began looking for a chance to hand Him over.
12. Now on the first day of matzah , when they were slaughtering the Passover lamb, Yeshua’s disciples say to Him, “Where do You want us to go and prepare for You to eat the Passover?”
13. He sends two of His disciples and tells them, “Go into the city, and a man carrying a jar of water will meet you. Follow him,
14. and wherever he enters, tell the homeowner, ‘The Teacher says, “Where is My guest room, where I may eat the Passover with My disciples?”’
15. He will show you a large upper room, furnished and ready. Make preparations for us there.”
16. The disciples went out, came to the city, and found just what Yeshua had told them. And they prepared the Passover.
17. When it was evening, He came with the Twelve.
18. As they were reclining and eating, Yeshua said, “Amen, I tell you, one of you who is eating with Me will betray Me.”
19. They began to be sorrowful and to say to Him one by one, “I’m not the one, am I?”
20. He said to them, “It’s one of the Twelve, one who dips with Me in the bowl.
21. For the Son of Man indeed goes, just as it is written about Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been better for that man if he had not been born!”
22. And while they were eating, He took matzah ; and after He offered the bracha, He broke it and gave it to them and said, “Take; this is My body.”
23. And He took a cup; and after giving thanks, He gave to them and they all drank from it.
