Luke 22:21-23

21But look, the hand of the one who is handing me over is with me on the table. 22For the Son of Man is going as it has been determined, but woe to that man through whom he is handed over!” 23And they began to discuss among themselves which of them then it might be who was going to do this.

Matthew 26:20-25

20When evening came, he was reclining at table with the twelve disciples. 21And as they were eating, he said, “Truly I tell you that one of you will hand me over.” 22And being deeply grieved, they began to say to him each one, “It is not I, is it, Lord?” 23And he answered, “The one who has dipped his hand in the bowl with me, this one will hand me over. 24The Son of Man goes as it is written about him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is handed over! It would have been good for him if that man had not been born.” 25And Judas, who was handing him over, answered, “It is not I, is it, Rabbi?” He says to him, “You have said it.”

Mark 14:17-21

17And when evening came, he comes with the Twelve. 18And as they were reclining at table and eating, Jesus said, “Truly I tell you that one of you will hand me over, the one who is eating with me.” 19They began to be grieved and to say to him one by one, “Surely not I?” 20And he said to them, “One of the Twelve, the one who is dipping with me into the bowl. 21For the Son of Man goes as it is written about him, but woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is handed over! It would have been good for him if that man had not been born.”

John 13:21-30

21Having said these things, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will hand me over.” 22The disciples were looking at one another, at a loss as to whom he was speaking about. 23One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was reclining in Jesus’ bosom. 24So Simon Peter nods to this man to ask who it might be of whom he was speaking. 25So that disciple, leaning back against Jesus’ chest, says to him, “Lord, who is it?” 26Jesus answers, “It is the one for whom I will dip the piece of bread and give it to him.” So having dipped the piece of bread, he gives it to Judas, son of Simon Iscariot. 27And after the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. So Jesus says to him, “What you are doing, do quickly.” 28But no one of those reclining at table knew why he had said this to him. 29For some thought that, since Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor. 30So after receiving the piece of bread, he went out at once. And it was night.
