Mt 26:26-29

²⁶ 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."

²⁷ Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, "Drink from it, all of you,

²⁸ for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins.

²⁹ 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."

Mark

Mk 14:22-25

²² While they were eating, he took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, and said, "Take it; this is my body."

²³ Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, and they all drank from it.

²⁴ He said to them, "This is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed for many.

²⁵ Amen, I say to you, I shall not drink again the fruit of the vine until the day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God."

Luke

Lk 22:19-20

¹⁹ Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me."

Paul

1 Cor 11:23-26

²³ For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus, on the night he was handed over, took bread,

²⁴ and, after he had given thanks, broke it and said, "This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me."

²⁵ In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me."

²⁶ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes.
