< John 13 >

1 And before the Celebration of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour has come, that He may depart out of this world to the Father, having loved His own who [are] in the world—to the end He loved them.
Now before the Feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world He loved them to the end.
2 And dinner having come, the Devil already having put [it] into the heart of Judas of Simon, Iscariot, that he may deliver Him up,
And after supper (the devil already having put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him),
3 Jesus knowing that all things the Father has given to Him—into [His] hands, and that He came forth from God, and He goes to God,
Jesus, knowing that the Father had given everything into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God,
4 rises from the dinner, and lays down His garments, and having taken a towel, He girded Himself;
He gets up from the meal and lays aside His garments, and taking a towel He tied it around Himself.
5 afterward He puts 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.
Then He poured water into the basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to dry them with the towel with which He was wrapped.
6 He comes, therefore, to Simon Peter, and that one says to Him, “Lord, You—do You wash my feet?”
So He comes to Simon Peter, and he says to Him, “Lord, you wash my feet?!”
7 Jesus answered and said to him, “That which I do you have not known now, but you will know after these things”;
Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will know [by experience] after this.”
8 Peter says to Him, “You may not wash my feet—throughout the age.” Jesus answered him, “If I may not wash you, you have no part with Me”; (aiōn g165)
Peter says to Him, “You will never ever wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with me.” (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter says to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head.”
Simon Peter says to Him, “Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head!”
10 Jesus says to him, “He who has been bathed has no need except to wash his feet, but he is clean altogether; and you are clean, but not all”;
Jesus says to him: “One who is bathed has no need except to wash his feet, but is clean all over. And you (pl) are clean, but not all of you.”
11 for He knew him who is delivering Him up; because of this He said, “You are not all clean.”
(He knew who was betraying Him; that is why He said, “Not all of you are clean.”)
12 When, therefore, He washed their feet, and took His garments, having reclined again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?
So when Jesus had washed their feet and put His garments back on, He reclined again and said to them: “Do you know what I have done to you?
13 You call Me the Teacher and the LORD, and you say well, for I am;
You address me as ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord’, and you speak correctly, because I am.
14 if then I washed your feet—the LORD and the Teacher—you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
So then, if I, Lord and Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I gave to you an example, that, according as I did to you, you also may do;
Because I have given you an example, so that you also should do just as I did to you.
16 truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his lord, nor an apostle greater than he who sent him;
“Most assuredly I say to you, a slave is not greater than his owner, neither is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.
17 if you have known these things, you are blessed if you may do them;
If you understand these things, you are blessed if you do them.
18 I do not speak concerning you all; I have known whom I chose for Myself; but that the Writing may be fulfilled: He who is eating the bread with Me, lifted up his heel against Me.
“I do not speak concerning all of you—I know whom I chose. But let the Scripture be fulfilled: ‘The one eating bread with me lifted up his heel against me.’
19 From this time I tell you, before its coming to pass, that, when it may come to pass, you may believe that I AM;
I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am.
20 truly, truly, I say to you, he who is receiving whomsoever I may send, receives Me; and he who is receiving Me, receives Him who sent Me.”
Most assuredly I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives me, and he who receives me receives Him who sent me.”
21 Having said these things, Jesus was troubled in the spirit, and testified and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you will deliver Me up”;
Having said these things, Jesus was distressed in His spirit and testified saying, “Most assuredly I say to you, one of you will betray me!”
22 the disciples were looking, therefore, at one another, doubting concerning of whom He speaks.
So the disciples started looking at each other, at a loss as to whom He meant.
23 And there was one of His disciples reclining in the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus was loving;
Now one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved, was reclining beside Jesus' bosom.
24 Simon Peter, then, beckons to this one, to inquire who he may be concerning whom He speaks,
So Simon Peter motions to him to inquire whom it might be that He was referring to.
25 and that one having leaned back on the breast of Jesus, responds to Him, “Lord, who is it?”
And leaning back against Jesus' breast he says to Him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesus answers, “It is that one to whom I, having dipped the morsel, will give it”; and having dipped the morsel, He gives [it] to Judas of Simon, Iscariot.
Jesus answers, “It is the one to whom I will give the piece of dunked bread.” And dunking the bread He gives it to Judas Iscariot, Simon's son.
27 And after the morsel, then Satan entered into that one. Jesus, therefore, says to him, “What you do—do quickly”;
And after the sop, then Satan entered into him. Whereupon Jesus says to him, “What you are doing, do quickly!”
28 and none of those reclining to eat knew for what intent He said this to him,
(Now none of those reclining at the table knew why He said this to him.
29 for certain [of them] were thinking, since Judas had the bag, that Jesus says to him, “Buy what we have need of for the celebration”; or that he may give something to the poor;
Since Judas had the money box, some supposed that Jesus was telling him to buy what they needed for the feast, or to give something to the poor.)
30 having received, therefore, the morsel, that one immediately went forth, and it was night.
So having received the sop, immediately he went out. And it was night.
31 When, therefore, he went forth, Jesus says, “Now was the Son of Man glorified, and God was glorified in Him;
When he had gone out Jesus says: “Now the Son of the Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in Him.
32 if God was glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself; indeed, He will immediately glorify Him.
Since God has been glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him with Himself, and He will do so presently.
33 Little children, yet a little [while] am I with you; you will seek Me, and according as I said to the Jews, I also say to you now: To where I go away, you are not able to come.
“Little children, I am with you just a little longer. You will look for me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going you cannot come,’ so now I say to you.
34 A new command I give to you, that you love one another; according as I loved you, that you also love one another;
“I give you a new commandment, that you love one another just as I have loved you—that you also love one another.
35 in this will all know that you are My disciples, if you may have love one to another.”
By this all will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
36 Simon Peter says to Him, “Lord, to where do You go away?” Jesus answered him, “To where I go away, you are not able now to follow Me, but afterward you will follow Me.”
Simon Peter says to Him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered him, “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but later you will follow me.”
37 Peter says to Him, “Lord, why am I not able to follow You now? I will lay down my life for You”;
Peter says to Him: “Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will lay down my life for your sake!”
38 Jesus answered him, “You will lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you may deny Me three times.”
Jesus answered him: “You will lay down your life for my sake? Most assuredly I say to you, no rooster can crow until you have denied me three times!
