delivered unto you, That the Lord Jesus, the same night in which he
was betrayed, took bread:
24. And when he had given thanks, he brake it, and said, Take, eat;
this is my body, which is broken for you: this do in remembrance of
me.

saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft
as ye drink it, in remembrance of me.
26. For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew
the Lord's death till he come.
