^{28 Ref} for this is my blood of the new covenant, that for many is being poured out -- to remission of sins;

^{29 Ref} and I say to you, that I may not drink henceforth on this produce of the vine, till that day when I may drink it with you new in the reign of my Father.'

^{30 Ref} And having sung a hymn, they went forth to the mount of the Olives;
