23 Entonces él respondiendo, dijo: El que mete la mano conmigo en el plato, ése me ha de entregar.

24 A la verdad el Hijo del hombre va, como está escrito de él; mas ¡ay de aquel hombre por quien el Hijo del hombre es entregado! bueno le fuera al tal hombre no haber nacido.

25 Entonces respondiendo Judas, que le entregaba, dijo: ¿Soy yo, Maestro? Dícele: Tú [lo] has dicho.
