John 13
1 It was the day before the Passover festival, and Jesus knew that the time had come to leave this world and go to his Father. He had loved those in the world who were his own, and he now demonstrated his complete and utter love for them.
Now 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 to the end.
2 It was during supper, and the devil had already put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas, son of Simon Iscariot.
And during supper, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas [son] of Simon, Iscariote, that he should deliver him up,
3 Jesus knew that the Father had placed everything under his authority, and that he had come from God and was going back to God.
[Jesus, ] knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands, and that he came out from God and was going to God,
4 So Jesus stood up from eating supper, took off his robe and wrapped a towel around his waist.
rises from supper and lays aside his garments, and having taken a linen towel he girded himself:
5 He poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel he had wrapped around him.
then he pours water into the washhand basin, and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe them with the linen towel with which he was girded.
6 He came to Simon Peter, who asked him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”
He comes therefore to Simon Peter; and he says to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
7 Jesus replied, “You won't realize what I'm doing for you now. But one day you'll understand.”
Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou dost not know now, but thou shalt know hereafter.
8 “No!” Peter protested. “You'll never wash my feet!” Jesus replied, “If I don't wash you, you have no part with me.” (aiōn g165)
Peter says to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash thee, thou hast not part with me. (aiōn g165)
9 “Then, Lord, wash not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!” Simon Peter exclaimed.
Simon Peter says to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10 Jesus responded, “Those who have had a bath only need to wash their feet and then they're clean all over. You are clean—but not all of you.”
Jesus says to him, He that is washed all over needs not to wash save his feet, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all.
11 For he knew who was going to betray him. That's why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
For he knew him that delivered him up: on account of this he said, Ye are not all clean.
12 After Jesus had washed their feet, he put his robe back on, and sat down. “Do you understand what I've done to you?” he asked them.
When therefore he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, having sat down again, he said to them, Do ye know what I have done to you?
13 “You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that's who I am.
Ye call me the Teacher and the Lord, and ye say well, for I am [so].
14 So if I, your Teacher and Lord, washed your feet, you ought to wash one another's feet.
If I therefore, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet;
15 I have set you an example, so you should do just as I did.
for I have given you an example that, as I have done to you, ye should do also.
16 I tell you the truth, servants are not more important than their master, and the one sent is not greater than the sender.
Verily, verily, I say to you, The bondman is not greater than his lord, nor the sent greater than he who has sent him.
17 Now that you understand these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
If ye know these things, blessed are ye if ye do them.
18 I'm not talking about all of you—I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill Scripture: ‘The one who shares my food has turned against me.’
I speak not of you all. I know those whom I have chosen; but that the scripture might be fulfilled, He that eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.
19 I'm telling you this now, before it happens, so when it does happen you will be convinced that I am who I am.
I tell you [it] now before it happens, that when it happens, ye may believe that I am [he].
20 I tell you the truth, whoever welcomes anyone I send welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me, welcomes the one who sent me.”
Verily, verily, I say to you, He who receives whomsoever I shall send receives me; and he that receives me receives him who has sent me.
21 After he had said this, Jesus was deeply troubled, and declared: “I tell you the truth, one of you is going to betray me.”
Having said these things, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you shall deliver me up.
22 The disciples looked at each other, wondering which of them Jesus was talking about.
The disciples therefore looked one on another, doubting of whom he spoke.
23 The disciple whom Jesus loved was sitting next to Jesus at the table, leaning close him.
Now there was at table one of his disciples in the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus loved.
24 Simon Peter motioned to him to ask Jesus which one he was talking about.
Simon Peter makes a sign therefore to him to ask who it might be of whom he spoke.
25 So he leaned over to Jesus and asked, “Lord, who is it?”
But he, leaning on the breast of Jesus, says to him, Lord, who is it?
26 Jesus replied, “It's the one to whom I will give a piece of bread after I have dipped it.”
Jesus answers, He it is to whom I, after I have dipped the morsel, give it. And having dipped the morsel, he gives it to Judas [son] of Simon, Iscariote.
27 After dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, son of Simon Iscariot. Once Judas had taken the bread, Satan entered him. “What you're going to do, do it quickly,” Jesus told him.
And, after the morsel, then entered Satan into him. Jesus therefore says to him, What thou doest, do quickly.
28 No one at the table understood what Jesus meant by this.
But none of those at table knew why he said this to him;
29 Since Judas was in charge of the money some of them thought that Jesus was telling him to go and buy what was needed for the Passover festival, or to donate something to the poor.
for some supposed, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus was saying to him, Buy the things of which we have need for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor.
30 Judas left immediately after he'd taken the piece of bread, and went out into the night.
Having therefore received the morsel, he went out immediately; and it was night.
31 After he'd left, Jesus said, “Now the Son of man is glorified, and through him God is glorified.
When therefore he was gone out Jesus says, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32 If God is glorified through him, then God will glorify the Son himself, and will glorify him immediately.
If God be glorified in him, God also shall glorify him in himself, and shall glorify him immediately.
33 My children, I will be with you only a little while longer. You will look for me, but I'm telling you now just as I told the Jews: you cannot come where I'm going.
Children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me; and, as I said to the Jews, Where I go ye cannot come, I say to you also now.
34 I am giving you a new command: Love one another. Love one another in the same way I have loved you.
A new commandment I give to you, that ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 If you love one another you will prove to everyone that you are my disciples.”
By this shall all know that ye are disciples of mine, if ye have love amongst yourselves.
36 Simon Peter asked him, “Where are you going, Lord?” Jesus answered, “You can't follow me now where I'm going. You will follow me later.”
Simon Peter says to him, Lord, where goest thou? Jesus answered him, Where I go thou canst not follow me now, but thou shalt follow me after.
37 “Lord, why can't I follow you now?” Peter asked. “I'll lay down my life for you.”
Peter says to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.
38 “Are you really ready to die for me? I tell you the truth: before the cock crows you will deny me three times,” Jesus replied.
Jesus answers, Thou wilt lay down thy life for me! Verily, verily, I say to thee, The cock shall not crow till thou hast denied me thrice.
