The Good News According to John, Chapter 13
{13:1} Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his
time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father,
having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
{13:2} During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of
Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him, {13:3} Jesus, knowing that
the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth
from God, and was going to God, {13:4} arose from supper, and laid
aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around
his waist. {13:5} Then he poured water into the basin, and began to
wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was
wrapped around him. {13:6} Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to
him, "Lord, do you wash my feet?"
{13:7} Jesus answered him, "You don't know what I am doing now, but
you will understand later."
{13:8} Peter said to him, "You will never wash my feet!"
Jesus answered him, "If I don't wash you, you have no part with me."
{13:9} Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, not my feet only, but also my
hands and my head!"
{13:10} Jesus said to him, "Someone who has bathed only needs to
have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not
all of you." {13:11} For he knew him who would betray him, therefore
he said, "You are not all clean." {13:12} So when he had washed their
feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to
them, "Do you know what I have done to you? {13:13} You call me,
'Teacher' and 'Lord.' You say so correctly, for so I am. {13:14} If I
then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought
to wash one another's feet. {13:15} For I have given you an example,
that you also should do as I have done to you. {13:16} Most certainly
I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither one who is
sent greater than he who sent him. {13:17} If you know these things,
blessed are you if you do them. {13:18} I don't speak concerning all
of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be
fulfilled, 'He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against
me.'[1] {13:19} From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when
it happens, you may believe that I am he. {13:20} Most certainly I
tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who
receives me, receives him who sent me."
{13:21} When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and
testified, "Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me."
{13:22} The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he
spoke. {13:23} One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the
table, leaning against Jesus' breast. {13:24} Simon Peter therefore
beckoned to him, and said to him, "Tell us who it is of whom he
speaks."
{13:25} He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus' breast, asked him,
"Lord, who is it?"
{13:26} Jesus therefore answered, "It is he to whom I will give this
piece of bread when I have dipped it." So when he had dipped the piece
of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. {13:27}
After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him.
Then Jesus said to him, "What you do, do quickly."
{13:28} Now no man at the table knew why he said this to him.
{13:29} For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus
said to him, "Buy what things we need for the feast," or that he
should give something to the poor. {13:30} Therefore, having received
that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.
{13:31} When he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now the Son of Man has
been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. {13:32} If God has
been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he
will glorify him immediately. {13:33} Little children, I will be with
you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the
Jews, 'Where I am going, you can't come,' so now I tell you. {13:34} A
new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just like I
have loved you; that you also love one another. {13:35} By this
everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one
another."
{13:36} Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, where are you going?"
Jesus answered, "Where I am going, you can't follow now, but you
will follow afterwards."
{13:37} Peter said to him, "Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will
lay down my life for you."
{13:38} Jesus answered him, "Will you lay down your life for me?
Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won't crow until you have
denied me three times.
