15 And he said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer.(A) 16 For I tell you, I will not eat it again until it finds fulfillment in the kingdom of God.”(B)

19 And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it,(C) and gave it to them, saying, “This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.”

Footnotes

  1. Luke 22:20 Some manuscripts do not have given for you … poured out for you.

23 For I received from the Lord(A) what I also passed on to you:(B) The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body,(C) which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant(D) in my blood;(E) do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.(F)

27 So then, whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord in an unworthy manner will be guilty of sinning against the body and blood of the Lord.(G) 28 Everyone ought to examine themselves(H) before they eat of the bread and drink from the cup. 29 For those who eat and drink without discerning the body of Christ eat and drink judgment on themselves.
