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.
2 pitA tasya hastE sarvvaM samarpitavAn svayam Izvarasya samIpAd Agacchad Izvarasya samIpaM yAsyati ca, sarvvANyEtAni jnjAtvA rajanyAM bhOjanE sampUrNE sati,
It was during supper, and the devil had already put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas, son of Simon Iscariot.
3 yadA zaitAn taM parahastESu samarpayituM zimOnaH putrasya ISkAriyOtiyasya yihUdA antaHkaraNE kupravRttiM samArpayat,
Jesus knew that the Father had placed everything under his authority, and that he had come from God and was going back to God.
4 tadA yIzu rbhOjanAsanAd utthAya gAtravastraM mOcayitvA gAtramArjanavastraM gRhItvA tEna svakaTim abadhnAt,
So Jesus stood up from eating supper, took off his robe and wrapped a towel around his waist.
5 pazcAd EkapAtrE jalam abhiSicya ziSyANAM pAdAn prakSAlya tEna kaTibaddhagAtramArjanavAsasA mArSTuM prArabhata|
He poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel he had wrapped around him.
6 tataH zimOnpitarasya samIpamAgatE sa uktavAn hE prabhO bhavAn kiM mama pAdau prakSAlayiSyati?
He came to Simon Peter, who asked him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”
7 yIzuruditavAn ahaM yat karOmi tat samprati na jAnAsi kintu pazcAj jnjAsyasi|
Jesus replied, “You won't realize what I'm doing for you now. But one day you'll understand.”
8 tataH pitaraH kathitavAn bhavAn kadApi mama pAdau na prakSAlayiSyati| yIzurakathayad yadi tvAM na prakSAlayE tarhi mayi tava kOpyaMzO nAsti| (aiōn g165)
“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)
9 tadA zimOnpitaraH kathitavAn hE prabhO tarhi kEvalapAdau na, mama hastau zirazca prakSAlayatu|
“Then, Lord, wash not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!” Simon Peter exclaimed.
10 tatO yIzuravadad yO janO dhautastasya sarvvAggapariSkRtatvAt pAdau vinAnyAggasya prakSAlanApEkSA nAsti| yUyaM pariSkRtA iti satyaM kintu na sarvvE,
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.”
11 yatO yO janastaM parakarESu samarpayiSyati taM sa jnjAtavAna; ataEva yUyaM sarvvE na pariSkRtA imAM kathAM kathitavAn|
For he knew who was going to betray him. That's why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
12 itthaM yIzustESAM pAdAn prakSAlya vastraM paridhAyAsanE samupavizya kathitavAn ahaM yuSmAn prati kiM karmmAkArSaM jAnItha?
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.
13 yUyaM mAM guruM prabhunjca vadatha tat satyamEva vadatha yatOhaM saEva bhavAmi|
“You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that's who I am.
14 yadyahaM prabhu rguruzca san yuSmAkaM pAdAn prakSAlitavAn tarhi yuSmAkamapi parasparaM pAdaprakSAlanam ucitam|
So if I, your Teacher and Lord, washed your feet, you ought to wash one another's feet.
15 ahaM yuSmAn prati yathA vyavAharaM yuSmAn tathA vyavaharttum EkaM panthAnaM darzitavAn|
I have set you an example, so you should do just as I did.
16 ahaM yuSmAnatiyathArthaM vadAmi, prabhO rdAsO na mahAn prErakAcca prEritO na mahAn|
I tell you the truth, servants are not more important than their master, and the one sent is not greater than the sender.
17 imAM kathAM viditvA yadi tadanusArataH karmmANi kurutha tarhi yUyaM dhanyA bhaviSyatha|
Now that you understand these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

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.’
19 ahaM sa jana ityatra yathA yuSmAkaM vizvAsO jAyatE tadarthaM EtAdRzaghaTanAt pUrvvam ahamidAnIM yuSmabhyamakathayam|
I'm telling you this now, before it happens, so when it does happen you will be convinced that I am who I am.
20 ahaM yuSmAnatIva yathArthaM vadAmi, mayA prEritaM janaM yO gRhlAti sa mAmEva gRhlAti yazca mAM gRhlAti sa matprErakaM gRhlAti|
I tell you the truth, whoever welcomes anyone I send welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me, welcomes the one who sent me.”

After he had said this, Jesus was deeply troubled, and declared: “I tell you the truth, one of you is going to betray me.”
22 tataH sa kamuddizya kathAmEtAM kathitavAn ityatra sandigdhAH ziSyAH parasparaM mukhamAlOkayituM prArabhanta|
The disciples looked at each other, wondering which of them Jesus was talking about.
23 tasmin samayE yIzu ryasmin aprIyata sa ziSyastasya vakSaHsthalam avAlambata|
The disciple whom Jesus loved was sitting next to Jesus at the table, leaning close him.
24 zimOnpitarastaM sagkEtEnAvadat, ayaM kamuddizya kathAmEtAm kathayatIti pRccha|
Simon Peter motioned to him to ask Jesus which one he was talking about.
25 tadA sa yIzO rvakSaHsthalam avalambya pRSThavAn, hE prabhO sa janaH kaH?
So he leaned over to Jesus and asked, “Lord, who is it?”
26 tatO yIzuH pratyavadad EkakhaNPaM pUpaM majjayitvA yasmai dAsyAmi saEva saH; pazcAt pUpakhaNPamEkaM majjayitvA zimOnaH putrAya ISkariyOtIyAya yihUdai dattavAn|
Jesus replied, “It's the one to whom I will give a piece of bread after I have dipped it.”
27 tasmin dattE sati zaitAn tamAzrayat; tadA yIzustam avadat tvaM yat kariSyasi tat kSipraM kuru|
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.
28 kintu sa yEnAzayEna tAM kathAmakathAyat tam upaviSTalOkAnAM kOpi nAbudhyata;
No one at the table understood what Jesus meant by this.
29 kintu yihUdAH samIpE mudrAsampuTakasthitEH kEcid ittham abudhyanta pArvvaNAsAdanArthaM kimapi dravyaM krEtuM vA daridrEbhyaH kinjcid vitarituM kathitavAn|
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.
30 tadA pUpakhaNPagrahaNAt paraM sa tUrNaM bahiragacchat; rAtrizca samupasyitA|
Judas left immediately after he'd taken the piece of bread, and went out into the night.
31 yihUdE bahirgatE yIzurakathayad idAnIM mAnavasutasya mahimA prakAzatE tEnEzvarasyApi mahimA prakAzatE|
After he'd left, Jesus said, “Now the Son of man is glorified, and through him God is glorified.
32 yadi tEnEzvarasya mahimA prakAzatE tarhIzvarOpi svEna tasya mahimAnaM prakAzayiSyati tUrNamEva prakAzayiSyati|
If God is glorified through him, then God will glorify the Son himself, and will glorify him immediately.

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.
34 yUyaM parasparaM prIyadhvam ahaM yuSmAsu yathA prIyE yUyamapi parasparam tathaiva prIyadhvaM, yuSmAn imAM navInAm AjnjAm AdizAmi|
I am giving you a new command: Love one another. Love one another in the same way I have loved you.
35 tEnaiva yadi parasparaM prIyadhvE tarhi lakSaNEnAnEna yUyaM mama ziSyA iti sarvvE jnjAtuM zakSyanti|
If you love one another you will prove to everyone that you are my disciples.”

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.”
37 tadA pitaraH pratyuditavAn, hE prabhO sAmprataM kutO hEtOstava pazcAd gantuM na zaknOmi? tvadarthaM prANAn dAtuM zaknOmi|
“Lord, why can't I follow you now?” Peter asked. “I'll lay down my life for you.”

“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.
