< John 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.
Jesus having perceived, before the feast of the passover, that his time to remove out of this world to his Father, was come; and having loved his own, who were in the world, he loved them to the last.
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,
Now while they were at the supper, (the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him, )
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,
Jesus, though he knew that the Father had subjected everything to him, and that he came from God, and was returning to God;
4 doth rise from the supper, and doth lay down his garments, and having taken a towel, he girded himself;
arose from supper, and laying aside his mantle, girt himself about with a towel.
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.
Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.
6 He cometh, therefore, unto Simon Peter, and that one saith to him, 'Sir, thou — dost thou wash my feet?'
When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, Master, would you wash my feet?
7 Jesus answered and said to him, 'That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;'
Jesus answered, At present you do not comprehend what I am doing; but you shall know hereafter.
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;' (aiōn g165)
Peter replied, You shall never wash my feet. Jesus answered, Unless I wash you, you can have no part with me. (aiōn g165)
9 Simon Peter saith to him, 'Sir, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head.'
Simon Peter said to him, Master, not my feet only; but also my hands and my head.
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;'
Jesus replied, He who has been bathing, needs only to wash his feet; the rest of his body being clean.
11 for he knew him who is delivering him up; because of this he said, 'Ye are not all clean.'
You are clean, but not all. For he knew who would betray him; therefore he said, You are not all clean.
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?
After he had washed their feet, he put on his mantle, and replacing himself at table, said to them, Do you understand what I have been doing to you?
13 ye call me, The Teacher and The Lord, and ye say well, for I am;
You call me the Teacher and the Master; and you say right; for so I am.
14 if then I did wash your feet — the Lord and the Teacher — ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
If I, then, the Master and the Teacher, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 'For an example I gave to you, that, according as I did to you, ye also may do;
For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.
16 verily, verily, 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, the servant is not greater than his master, nor is the apostle greater than he who sends him.
17 if these things ye have known, happy are ye, if ye may do them;
Happy are you, who know these things, provided you practice them.
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.
I speak not of you all. I know whom I have chosen: but the scripture must be fulfilled, "He that eats at my table, has 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, ye may believe that I am [he];
I tell you this now, before it happen; that when it happens, you may believe that I am the Messiah.
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.'
Most assuredly, I say to you, he that receives whomsoever I send, receives me; and he that receives me, receives him who sent me.
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;'
After uttering these words, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and declared, saying, Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.
22 the disciples were looking, therefore, one at another, doubting concerning whom he speaketh.
Then the disciples looked one upon another, doubting of whom he spoke.
23 And there was one of his disciples reclining (at meat) in the bosom of Jesus, whom Jesus was loving;
Now one of his disciples, one whom Jesus loved, was lying close to his breast:
24 Simon Peter, then, doth beckon to this one, to inquire who he may be concerning whom he speaketh,
Simon Peter, therefore, made a sign to him, to inquire whom he meant.
25 and that one having leant back on the breast of Jesus, respondeth to him, 'Sir, who is it?'
He, then, reclining on Jesus' bosom, said to him, Master, who is it?
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.
Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give this morsel, after I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
27 And after the morsel, then the Adversary entered into that one, Jesus, therefore, saith to him, 'What thou dost — do quickly;'
After receiving the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him, What you do, do quickly.
28 and none of those reclining at meat knew for what intent he said this to him,
But none at the table knew, why he gave this order.
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;
Some imagined, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had signified to him to buy necessaries for the festival; or, to give something to the poor.
30 having received, therefore, the morsel, that one immediately went forth, and it was night.
When Judas had taken the morsel, he immediately went out: and it was night.
31 When, therefore, he went forth, Jesus saith, 'Now was the Son of Man glorified, and God was glorified in him;
When he was gone, Jesus said, the Son of Man is now glorified, and God is glorified by him.
32 if God was glorified in him, God also will glorify him in Himself; yea, immediately He will glorify him.
If God is glorified by him, God also will glorify him by himself, and that without delay.
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.
My children, I have now but a little time to be with you. You will seek me, and what I said to the Jews, Whither I go, you can not come; I say at present to you.
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;
A new commandment I give you, that you love one another; that as I have loved you, you also love one another.
35 in this shall all know that ye are my disciples, if ye may have love one to another.'
By this shall all men know, that you are my disciples, if you have love one to another.
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.'
Simon Peter said to him, Master, whither are you going? Jesus answered, Whither I am going, you can not follow me now; but afterward you shall follow me.
37 Peter saith to him, 'Sir, wherefore am I not able to follow thee now? my life for thee I will lay down;'
Peter replied, Master, why can not I follow you presently? I will lay down my life for your sake!
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.'
Jesus answered him, Will you lay down your life for my sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the cock shall not crow, till you have disowned me thrice.
