John 13

13:1 And before the feast of the passover, Jesus knowing that his hour hath come, that he may remove out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own who [are] in the world--to the end he loved them. 13:2 And supper being come, the devil already having put [it] into the heart of Judas of Simon, Iscariot, that he may deliver him up, 13:3 Jesus knowing that all things the Father hath given to him--into [his] hands, and that from God he came forth, and unto God he goeth, 13:4 doth rise from the supper, and doth lay down his garments, and having taken a towel, he girded himself; 13:5 afterward he putteth water into the basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples, and to wipe with the towel with which he was being girded. 13:6 He cometh, therefore, unto Simon Peter, and that one saith to him, `Sir, thou--dost thou wash my feet' 13:7 Jesus answered and said to him, `That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;' 13:8 Peter saith to him, `Thou mayest not wash my feet--to the age.' Jesus answered him, `If I may not wash thee, thou hast no part with me;' 13:9 Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head.' 13:10 Jesus saith to him, `He who hath been bathed hath no need save to wash his feet, but he is clean altogether; and ye are clean, but not all;' 13:11 for he knew him who is delivering him up; because of this he said, `Ye are not all clean.' 13:12 When, therefore, he washed their feet, and took his garments, having reclined (at meat) again, he said to them, `Do ye know what I have done to you 13:13 ye call me, The Teacher and The Lord, and ye say well, for I am; 13:14 if then I did wash your feet--the Lord and the Teacher--ye also ought to wash one another's feet. 13:15 `For an example I gave to you, that, according as I did to you, ye also may do; 13:16 verily, verily, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his lord, nor an apostle greater than he who sent him; 13:17 if these things ye have known, happy are ye, if ye may do them;  13:18 not concerning you all do I speak; I have known whom I chose for myself; but that the Writing may be fulfilled: He who is eating the bread with me, did lift up against me his heel. 13:19 `From this time I tell you, before its coming to pass, that, when it may come to pass, ye may believe that I am [he] ; 13:20 verily, verily, I say to you, he who is receiving whomsoever I may send, doth receive me; and he who is receiving me, doth receive Him who sent me.' 13:21 These things having said, Jesus was troubled in the spirit, and did testify, and said, `Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will deliver me up;' 13:22 the disciples were looking, therefore, one at another, doubting concerning whom he speaketh. 13:23 And there was one of his disciples reclining (at meat) in the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus was loving; 13:24 Simon Peter, then, doth beckon to this one, to inquire who he may be concerning whom he speaketh, 13:25 and that one having leant back on the breast of Jesus, respondeth to him, `Sir, who is it' 13:26 Jesus answereth, `That one it is to whom I, having dipped the morsel, shall give it;' and having dipped the morsel, he giveth [it] to Judas of Simon, Iscariot. 13:27 And after the morsel, then the Adversary entered into that one, Jesus, therefore, saith to him, `What thou dost--do quickly;' 13:28 and none of those reclining at meat knew for what intent he said this to him, 13:29 for certain were thinking, since Judas had the bag, that Jesus saith to him, `Buy what we have need of for the feast;' or that he may give something to the poor; 13:30 having received, therefore, the morsel, that one immediately went forth, and it was night.  13:31 When, therefore, he went forth, Jesus saith, `Now was the Son of Man glorified, and God was glorified in him; 13:32 if God was glorified in him, God also will glorify him in Himself; yea, immediately He will glorify him. 13:33 `Little children, yet a little am I with you; ye will seek me, and, according as I said to the Jews--Whither I go away, ye are not able to come, to you also I do say [it] now. 13:34 `A new commandment I give to you, that ye love one another; according as I did love you, that ye also love one another; 13:35 in this shall all know that ye are my disciples, if ye may have love one to another.'  13:36 Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, whither dost thou go away' Jesus answered him, `Whither I go away, thou art not able now to follow me, but afterward thou shalt follow me.' 13:37 Peter saith to him, `Sir, wherefore am I not able to follow thee now my life for thee I will lay down;' 13:38 Jesus answered him, `Thy life for me thou wilt lay down! verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow till thou mayest deny me thrice.'
