MATTHEW MARK LUKE JOHN

on another, doubting of whom he spake. • And they began to be • exceeding sorrowful, and
began every one of them to say unto him, • one by one, • Lord, • Is it I? And another said, Is
it I? • Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved. Simon

Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake. He
then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it? Jesus answered, • and said unto
them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth • his hand with me in the dish, • [h]e it is, to whom
I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it[;] • the same shall betray me. • And truly the Son of

man • indeed goeth, • as it was determined: • [A]s it is written of him: • [B]ut woe unto that
man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! [I]t had been good for that man if he had • {never
/ not} been born. • And they began to inquire among themselves, which of them it was that
should do this thing. • And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son
of Simon. • Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto

him, Thou hast said. • And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him,
That thou doest, do quickly. Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto
him. For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy
those things that we have need of against the feast; [O]r, that he should give something to

the poor. He then having received the sop went immediately out: [A]nd it was night. •

¶ And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.
And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise
authority upon them are called benefactors. But ye shall not be so: [B]ut he that is greatest among you,

let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve. For whether is greater, he that
sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? [I]s not he that sitteth at meat? [B]ut I am among you as he that
serveth. Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations. And I appoint unto you a
kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me; [t]hat ye may eat and drink at my table in my
kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. •
