And you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water; follow him. - 14 And wherever he will have entered, say to the owner of the house, ‘The Teacher says: Where is my dining room, where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?’ - 15 And he will show you a large cenacle, fully furnished. And there, you shall prepare it for us.” - 16 And his disciples departed and went into the city. And they found it just as he had told them. And they prepared the Passover. - 22 And while eating with them, Jesus took bread. And blessing it, he broke it and gave it to them, and he said: “Take. This is my body.” - 23 And having taken the chalice, giving thanks, he gave it to them. And they all drank from it. - 24 And he said to them: “This is my blood of the new covenant, which shall be shed for many. - 25 Amen I say to you, that I will no longer drink from this fruit of the vine, until that day when I will drink it new in the kingdom of God.” - 26 And having sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

In US parishes the readings are proclaimed from the NABRE; the text shown here is the Catholic Public Domain Version. Old Testament readings and the psalm are listed with a link to their chapter: the US Lectionary numbers some of their verses differently from the CPDV, so their text is not printed here. Psalm citations keep the Lectionary’s Hebrew numbering; the CPDV numbers the Psalms as the Vulgate does. Spotted a wrong date, color or citation?
