Luke 22:19-30

New American Standard Bible

¹⁹ And when He had taken some bread and ^(A)given thanks, He broke it and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, which is being given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” ²⁰ And in the same way He took the cup after they had eaten, saying, “This cup, which is ^(B)poured out for you, is the ^(C)new covenant in My blood. ^21 (D)But behold, the hand of the one betraying Me is with ^[a]Mine on the table. ²² For indeed, the Son of Man is going ^(E)as it has been determined; but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!” ²³ And they began to debate among themselves which one of them it was who was going to do this.

Who Is Greatest

²⁴ And ^(F)a dispute also developed among them as to which one of them was regarded as being the greatest. ^25 (G)And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles domineer over them; and those who have authority over them are called ‘Benefactors.’ ²⁶ But it is not this way for you; ^(H)rather, the one who is the greatest among you must become like ^(I)the youngest, and the leader like the servant. ²⁷ For ^(J)who is greater, the one who reclines at the table or the one who serves? Is it not the one who reclines at the table? But ^(K)I am among you as the one who serves.

²⁸ “You are the ones who have stood by Me in My ^(L)trials; ²⁹ and just as My Father has granted Me a ^(M)kingdom, I grant you ³⁰ that you may ^(N)eat and drink at My table in My ^(O)kingdom, and ^(P)you will sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.
