When Jesus had finished saying all these things, he said to his disciples,
“You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be delivered up to be crucified.”

Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the courtyard of the high priest, whose name was Caiaphas,
and they plotted together to arrest Jesus secretly and kill him.
But they said, “Not during the feast, lest there be a riot among the people.”
Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it on his head as he reclined at the table.
When his disciples saw it, they were indignant and said, “Why this waste?
This ointment could have been sold for a large sum, and the money could have been given to the poor.”
Aware of this, Jesus said to them, “Why are you causing trouble for this woman? She has done a good deed to me.
You always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me.
She has put this ointment on my body to prepare me for burial.

On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and said to him, “Where do yoʋ want us to make preparations for yoʋ to eat the Passover?”

He said, “Go into the city to a certain man and say to him, ‘The Teacher says, “My time is near. I am going to keep the Passover with yoʋ, along with my disciples.”’”
So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover.
When evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the twelve.
As they were eating, he said, “Truly I say to you, one of you will betray me.”
Greatly distressed, they began to say to him one after another, “Surely not I, Lord?”
Jesus answered, “The one who has dipped his hand with me into the dish will betray me.

As they were eating, Jesus took the bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it, gave it to the disciples, and said, “Take and eat this bread; this is my body.”
Then he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, saying, “Drink of it, all of you,
for this is my blood of the new covenant, which is poured out for many for the remission of sins.

In that hour Jesus said to the crowds, “Have you come out to arrest me with swords and clubs as you would against a robber? I sat daily with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest me.

Now those who had arrested Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

But Peter was following him at a distance, coming as far as the courtyard of the high priest. After going inside, he sat with the officers to see the outcome.
Now the chief priests, the elders, and the whole Sanhedrin were seeking false testimony against Jesus, so that they could put him to death,
but they did not find any. Even though many false witnesses came forward, they did not find any.
But at last two false witnesses came forward and declared, “This man said, ‘I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.’”
So the high priest stood up and said to him, “Do yoʋ make no answer? What are these men testifying against yoʋ?”

But Jesus was silent. Then the high priest said to him, “I adjure yoʋ by the living God to tell us if yoʋ are the Christ, the Son of God.”

Then the high priest tore his garments and said, “He has blasphemed! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, you have now heard his blasphemy.
What do you think?” They answered, “He deserves death.”
Then they spit in his face and struck him. Others slapped him,
saying, “Prophesy to us, yoʋ Christ! Who is it that struck yoʋ?”

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him and said, “Yoʋ also were with Jesus the Galilean.”
But he denied it before them all, saying, “I do not know what yoʋ are talking about!”

Then he went out to the gateway, and another servant girl saw him and said to the people there, “This man also was with Jesus of Nazareth.”
But again he denied it with an oath: “I do not know the man.”

After a little while, the people standing there came up and said to Peter, “Truly yoʋ also are one of them, for even yoʋr accent gives yoʋ away.”
Then he began to invoke curses and to swear: “I do not know the man.” And immediately a rooster crowed.
