John 13

¹Now before the feast of the passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, loved them unto the end.

²And supper being served,—the Devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him,—

³he, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth from God, and was going to God,

⁴riseth from the supper, and layeth aside his garments, and took a towel, and girded himself.

⁵Then he poureth water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

⁶So he cometh to Simon Peter; who saith to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

⁷Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou knowest not now, but thou wilt know hereafter.

⁸Peter saith to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

⁹Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

¹⁰Jesus saith to him, He that hath bathed needeth not to wash himself, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all.

¹¹For he knew who was about to betray him; for this reason he said, Ye are not all clean.

¹²So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and placed himself again at the table, he said to them, Know ye what I have done to you?

¹³Ye call me the Teacher, and the Lord; and ye say well; for so I am.

¹⁴If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.

¹⁵For I have given you an example, that ye also should do as I have done to you.

¹⁶Truly, truly do I say to you, A servant is not greater than his lord, nor one who is sent greater than he that sent him.

¹⁷If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

¹⁸I speak not of you all; I know whom I chose; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, "He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted up his heel against me."

¹⁹I tell you now before it hath come to pass, that when it hath come to pass ye may believe that I am He.

²⁰Truly, truly do I say to you, He that receiveth whomever I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him who sent me.

²¹Having said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Truly, truly do I say to you, that one of you will betray me.

²²The disciples therefore looked at one another, doubting of whom he spoke.

²³There was reclining on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

²⁴To him therefore Simon Peter maketh a sign, and saith to him, Tell who it is of whom he is speaking.

²⁵He, therefore, leaning back on the breast of Jesus, saith to him, Lord, who is it?

²⁶Jesus answereth, It is he for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him. Having therefore dipped the morsel, he taketh and giveth it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

²⁷And after the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus therefore saith to him, What thou doest, do quickly.

²⁸Now no one at the table knew for what intent he said this to him.

²⁹For some thought, because Judas kept the purse, that Jesus said to him, Buy what we need for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor.

³⁰He then, having received the morsel, went out immediately; and it was night.

³¹When therefore he had gone out, Jesus saith, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

³²If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and will immediately glorify him.

³³My children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye will seek me; and, as I said to the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come, so now I say to you.

³⁴A new commandment I give you, that ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

³⁵By this will all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one for another.

³⁶Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, whither dost thou go? Jesus answered, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou wilt follow me afterward.

³⁷Peter saith to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.

³⁸Jesus answereth, Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Truly, truly do I say to thee, A cock will not crow, till thou hast thrice denied me.

John 13

¹Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

²And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him;

³Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;

⁴He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.

⁵After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

⁶Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

⁷Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.

⁸Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

⁹Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

¹⁰Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

¹¹For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

¹²So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

¹³Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

¹⁴If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.

¹⁵For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

¹⁶Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

¹⁷If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

¹⁸I 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.

¹⁹Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.

²⁰Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

²¹When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

²²Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.

²³Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

²⁴Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.

²⁵He then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

²⁶Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

²⁷And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

²⁸Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.

²⁹For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

³⁰He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.

³¹Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

³²If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.

³³Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

³⁴A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

³⁵By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

³⁶Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.

³⁷Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.

³⁸Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
