Translated by Verse Made Simple Editorial

I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE

I'm not talking about all of you here — I know exactly who I picked. But this had to happen so the scriptures would come true: 'The one who shares meals with me will turn around and betray me.'

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Even Jesus knew someone at his table would stab him in the back — sometimes betrayal comes from the people closest to you.
