18. I will never drink wine again until God’s kingdom comes.”

20. In the same way, after supper, Jesus took the cup of wine and said, “This wine represents the new agreement from God to his people. It will begin when my blood is poured out for you.”

21. Jesus said, “But here on this table is the hand of the one who will hand me over to my enemies.

22. The Son of Man will do what God has planned. But it will be very bad for the one who hands over the Son of Man to be killed.”
