## Matthew 26:20-25 in Context (Verses 17–28 KJV)
 
 [17 ](/kjv/matthew/26/17) ¶ Now the first *day* of the feast of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?
 
 [18 ](/kjv/matthew/26/18) And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.
 
 [19 ](/kjv/matthew/26/19) And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.
 
 [20 ](/kjv/matthew/26/20) Now when the even was come, he sat down with the twelve.
 
 [21 ](/kjv/matthew/26/21) And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/matthew/26/22) And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?
 
 [23 ](/kjv/matthew/26/23) And he answered and said, He that dippeth *his* hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/matthew/26/24) The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/matthew/26/25) Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/matthew/26/26) ¶ And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed *it*, and brake *it*, and gave *it* to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/matthew/26/27) And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave *it* to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
 
 [28 ](/kjv/matthew/26/28) For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
