< John 13 >

1 And before the feast of the passover, Jesus knew that the hour had come when he should depart from this world unto the Father. And he loved his own people, who were in the world; and he loved them unto the end.
Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
2 And when the supper was passed, it had been injected by Satan into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him.
And supper being ended (the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son], to betray him; )
3 And Jesus, because he knew that the Father had given all things into his hands; and that he came out from the Father, and was going to God;
Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God, and was going to God;
4 arose from the supper, and laid aside his long garments, and took a linen cloth, and wrapped it about his loins;
He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
5 and poured water into a wash-basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples: and he wiped them with the linen cloth with which he had girded his loins.
After that, he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples feet, and to wipe [them] with the towel with which he was girded.
6 And when he came to Simon Cephas, Simon said to him: Dost thou, my Lord, wash my feet for me?
Then he cometh to Simon Peter: and Peter saith to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
7 Jesus answered, and said to him: What I do, thou understandest not now: but hereafter thou wilt understand.
Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
8 Simon Cephas said to him: Never shalt thou wash my feet. Jesus said to him: Unless I wash thee, thou hast no part with me. (aiōn g165)
Peter saith to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Cephas said to him: Then, my Lord, not my feet only shalt thou wash, but also my hands and my head.
Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also [my] hands and [my] head.
10 Jesus said to him: He that hath bathed, needeth not but to wash his feet; for he is all clean. And ye also are clean; but not all of you.
Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash [his] feet, but is wholly clean: and ye are clean, but not all.
11 For Jesus knew, who would betray him: therefore he said, Ye are not all clean.
For he knew who would betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
12 And when he had washed their feet, he resumed his long garments, and reclined. And he said to them: Understand ye what I have done to you?
So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said to them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13 Ye call me, Our Rabbi, and Our Lord; and ye speak well; for I am so.
Ye call me Master, and Lord: and ye say well; for [so] I am.
14 If then I, your Lord and your Rabbi, have washed your feet, how much more ought ye to wash the feet of one another?
If I then, [your] Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I have given you this example, that ye might do, as I have done to you.
For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16 Verily, verily, I say to you, That no servant is greater than his lord; and no legate is greater than he who sent him.
Verily, verily, I say to you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 If ye know these things, happy will ye be if ye do them.
If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
18 Not of you all, do I speak: I know whom I have chosen. But that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted his heel against me.
I speak not of you all; I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted up his heel against me.
19 From this time, I tell you, before it occurs, that when it shall occur, ye may know that I am he.
Now I tell you before it cometh, that when it hath come to pass, ye may believe that I am [he].
20 Verily, verily, I say to you: He that receiveth him whom I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.
Verily, verily, I say to you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.
21 These things said Jesus, and he was agitated in his spirit; and he testified, and said: Verily, verily, I say to you, That one of you will betray me.
When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will betray me.
22 And the disciples stared at one another; because they knew not, of whom he spake.
Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spoke.
23 And there was one of his disciples, who was reclining on his bosom, he whom Jesus loved;
Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom, one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.
24 to him Simon Cephas beckoned, that he should ask him, who it was of whom he spoke.
Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, to ask who it should be of whom he spoke.
25 And that disciple fell upon the breast of Jesus, and said to him: My Lord, which is he?
He then lying on Jesus' breast, saith to him, Lord, who is it?
26 Jesus answered and said: He it is, to whom I give the bread when I have dipped it. And Jesus dipped the bread, and gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
Jesus answered, He it is to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped [it]. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave [it] to Judas Iscariot, [the son] of Simon.
27 And after the bread, then Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him: What thou doest, do quickly.
And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus to him, What thou doest, do quickly.
28 And no one of those reclining, knew, wherefore he said this to him.
Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spoke this to him.
29 For some of them supposed, because the purse was in the hands of Judas, that Jesus expressly charged him to buy something needful for the feast, or that he should give something to the poor.
For some [of them] thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said to him, Buy [those things] that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
30 And Judas took the bread at once, and went out of the house. And it was night when he went out.
He then having received the sop, went immediately out: and it was night.
31 And Jesus said: Now is the Son of man glorified; and God is glorified in him.
Therefore when he had gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32 And if God is glorified in him, God will glorify him in himself; and will glorify him speedily.
If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and will immediately glorify him.
33 My children, a little longer I am with you; and ye will seek for me; and, as I said to the Jews, Whither I go ye cannot come, so I now say to you.
Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye will seek me: and, as I said to the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
34 A new commandment I give to you, that ye be affectionate to each other. As I have loved you, do ye also love one another.
A new commandment I give to you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this will every one know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love for each other.
By this shall all [men] know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
36 Simon Cephas said to him: Our Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered, and said to him: Whither I go, thou canst not now come after me; but thou wilt at last come.
Simon Peter said to him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterward.
37 Simon Cephas said to him: My Lord, why can I not come after thee? I would lay down my life for thee.
Peter said to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
38 Jesus said to him: Wouldst thou lay down thy life for me? Verily, verily, I say to thee, The cock will not crow, until thou hast three times denied me.
Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say to thee, The cock will not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
