☆ Gospel: Matthew 26:14-25

14
Then one of the twelve, who was named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests and said,

15
What will you give me, if I give him up to you? And the price was fixed at thirty bits of silver.

16
And from that time he was watching for a chance to give him into their hands.

17
Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus, saying, Where are we to make ready for you to take the Passover meal?

18
And he said to them, Go into the town to such a man, and say to him, The Master says, My time is near: I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples.

19
And the disciples did as Jesus had said to them; and they made ready the Passover.

20
Now when evening was come, he was seated at table with the twelve disciples;

21
And while they were taking food, he said, Truly I say to you that one of you will be false to me.

22
And they were very said, and said to him, one by one, Is it I, Lord?

23
And he made answer and said, He who puts his hand into the plate with me, the same will be false to me.

24
The Son of man goes, even as the Writings say of him: but a curse is on that man through whom the Son of man is given up; it would have been well for that man if he had never come into the world.

25
And Judas, who was false to him, made answer and said, Is it I, Master? He says to him, Yes.

☆ Isaiah 50:4-9a

4
The Lord God has given me the tongue of those who are experienced, so that I may be able to give the word a special sense for the feeble: every morning my ear is open to his teaching, like those who are experienced:

5
And I have not put myself against him, or let my heart be turned back from him.

6
I was offering my back to those who gave me blows, and my face to those who were pulling out my hair: I did not keep my face covered from marks of shame.

7
For the Lord God is my helper; I will not be put to shame: so I have made my face like a rock, and I am certain that he will give me my right.

8
He who takes up my cause is near; who will go to law with me? let us come together before the judge: who is against me? let him come near to me.

9a
See, the Lord God is my helper; who will give a decision against me?
