John Chapter 13

1Now before the festival of the Passover, Jesus knew that his hour had come for him to move out of this world to the father, after he had loved his own who were in the world. He loved them to the end. 2And when supper had taken place, and the devil had already laid it on the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him, 3Jesus, knowing that the father had committed everything to his responsibility and that he had come out from God, and that he was going to God, 4got up from the supper and laid aside his garments and took a linen cloth and girded himself. 5Then he put water in the basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the linen cloth with which he was girded. 6Then he went to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?” 7Jesus replied and said to him, “You do not now know what I am doing, but you will know afterwards.” 8Peter said to him, “Don't ever wash my feet at all.” Jesus replied to him, “If I don't wash you, you have no part with me.” 9Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, wash not just my feet, but also my hands and head.” 10Jesus said to him, “He who has washed himself does not need anything other than to wash his feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not all of you.” 11For he knew who was going to betray him. That is why he said, “You are not all clean.” 12Then when he had washed their feet and had taken his garments, he reclined again and said to them, “Do you know what I have done for you? 13You call me ‘the teacher’ and ‘the Lord’, and you say so correctly, for so I am. 14So if I, the Lord and the teacher, have washed your feet, then you ought to wash each other's feet. 15For I have given you an example, so that as I have acted for you, so you should act. 16Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than him who sent him. 17If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 18I do not speak of all of you. I know those whom I have chosen, but let the scripture be fulfilled: ‘He who partakes of bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’ 19From now on I will tell you before a thing takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe that I am. 20Truly, truly, I say to you, if I send someone, he who receives him receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.” 21When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit, and he testified and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you will betray me.” 22Then the disciples looked at each other, at a loss as to whom he was speaking about. 23And one of his disciples, he whom Jesus loved, was reclining in the bosom of Jesus's robe. 24Then Simon Peter made a sign to him, to inquire as to who it might be about whom he spoke. 25Then he just sank onto Jesus's chest and said to him, “Lord, who is it?” 26Jesus answered, “It is he to whom I will give this morsel of food when I have dipped it.” So he dipped the morsel and gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27And after the incident of the morsel of food, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you are doing, do quickly.” 28But no-one among those reclining knew to what intent he said this to him. 29For some thought, since Judas had the money-bag, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what we need for the festival”, or that he should give something to the poor. 30Then he took the morsel of food and went out straightaway. It was, by the way, night. 31When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the son of man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. 32If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will immediately glorify him. 33Little children, I will be with you for just a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you cannot go’, so I also say to you now. 34I give you a new commandment: to love each other – that you also love each other as I have loved you. 35By this all will know that you are my disciples: by whether you have love among each other.” 36Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied to him, “Where I am going, you cannot now follow me, but later you will follow me.” 37Peter said to him, “Lord, why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.” 38Jesus replied to him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the cock will certainly not crow until you have denied me three times.
