Mark 14:18-32 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

18. And while reclining and eating with them at table, Jesus said, "Amen I say to you, that one of you, who eats with me, will betray me."

19. But they began to be sorrowful and to say to him, one at a time: "Is it I?"

20. And he said to them: "It is one of the twelve, who dips his hand with me in the dish.

21. And indeed, the Son of man goes, just as it has been written of him. But woe to that man by whom the Son of man will be betrayed. It would be better for that man if he had never been born."

22. And while eating with them, Jesus took bread. And blessing it, he broke it and gave it to them, and he said: "Take. This is my body."

23. And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them. And they all drank from it.

24. And he said to them: "This is my blood of the new covenant, which shall be shed for many.

25. Amen I say to you, that I will no longer drink from this fruit of the vine, until that day when I will drink it new in the kingdom of God."

26. And having sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

27. And Jesus said to them: "You will all fall away from me in this night. For it has been written: 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.'

28. But after I have risen again, I will go before you to Galilee."

29. Then Peter said to him, "Even if all will have fallen away from you, yet I will not."

30. And Jesus said to him, "Amen I say to you, that this day, in this night, before the rooster has uttered its voice twice, you will deny me three times."

31. But he spoke further, "Even if I must die along with you, I will not deny you." And they all spoke similarly also.

32. And they went to a country estate, by the name of Gethsemani. And he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I pray."
