While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the
blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, "Take
and eat; this is my body."
Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to
them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you, for this is my blood of
the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness
of sins.
I tell you, from now on I shall not drink this
fruit of the vine until the day when I drink it with you new in the
kingdom of my Father." (Matthew 26:26-29)
