‏ John 13:27

Then entered Satan into him ( τοτε εισηλθεν εις εκεινον ο Σατανας ). The only time the word Satan occurs in the Gospel. As he had done before (13:2; Lu 22:3) until Christ considered him a devil (6:70). This is the natural outcome of one who plays with the devil.

That thou doest, do quickly ( Hο ποιεις ποιησον ταχειον ). Aorist active imperative of ποιεω. "Do more quickly what thou art doing." Ταχειον is comparative of ταχεως (Joh 11:31) and in N.T. only here, 20:4; Heb 13:19, 23. See the eagerness of Jesus for the passion in Lu 12:50.
