And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to him, one by one, `Is it I?' and another, `Is it I?' And he answering said to them, `One of the twelve who is dipping with me in the dish; the Son of Man doth indeed go, as it hath been written concerning him, but wo to that man through whom the Son of Man is delivered up; good were it to him if that man had not been born.'

While the king `is' in his circle, My spikenard hath given its fragrance.
And when the hour come, he reclined (at meat), and the twelve apostles with him, and he said unto them, `With desire I did desire to eat this passover with you before my suffering, for I say to you, that no more may I eat of it till it may be fulfilled in the reign of God.'
