Jesus Washes His Disciples' Feet
1 AND before the festival day of Pasche, JESUS knowing that his hour was come that he should pass out of this world to his Father: whereas he had loved his that were in the world, unto the end he loved them.📜💬📚
2 And when supper was done, whereas the devil now had put into the heart of Judas Iscariote the son of Simon, to betray him:📜💬📚
3 knowing that the Father gave him all things into his hands, & that he came from God, and goeth to God:📜💬📚
4 he riseth from supper, and layeth aside his garments, and having taken a towel, girded himself.📜💬📚
5 After that, he put water into a basin, and began to wash the feet of the Disciples, and to wipe them with the towel where with he was girded.📜💬📚
6 He cometh therefore to Simon Peter. And Peter saith to him; Lord: doest thou wash my feet?📜💬📚
7 JESUS answered and said to him: That which I do, thou knowest not now, hereafter thou shalt know.📜💬📚
8 Peter saith to him: Thou shalt not wash my feet for ever. JESUS answered him: If I wash thee not, thou shalt not have part with me.📜💬📚
9 Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, not only my feet, but also hands, and head.📜💬📚
10 JESUS saith to him: He that is washed, needeth not but to wash his feet, but is clean wholly. And you are clean, but not all.📜💬📚
11 For he knew who he was that would betray him. Therefore he said: You are not clean all.📜💬📚
12 Therefore, after he had washed their feet, and taken his garments, being set down, again he said to them: Know you what I have done to you?📜💬📚
13 You call me, Master, and Lord: and you say well, for I am so.📜💬📚
14 If then I have washed your feet, Lord and Master; you also ought to wash one another's feet.📜💬📚
15 For I have given you an example, that as I have done to you, so you do also.📜💬📚
16 Amen, amen I say to you, a servant is not greater than his Lord, neither is an Apostle greater than he that sent him.📜💬📚
17 If you know these things, you shall be blessed if you do them.📜💬📚
Jesus Predicts His Betrayal
18 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 shall lift up his heel against me.📜💬📚
19 From this time I tell you, before it come to pass: that when it shall come to pass, you may believe, that I am he.📜💬📚
20 Amen, amen, I say to you, he that receiveth any that I send, receiveth me: & he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.📜💬📚
21 When JESUS had said these things, he was troubled in spirit: and he protested, and said: Amen, amen I say to you that one of you shall betray me.📜💬📚
22 The Disciples therefore looked one upon another, doubting of whom he spake.📜💬📚
23 There was therefore one of his Disciples leaning in the bosom of JESUS, he whom JESUS loved.📜💬📚
24 Therefore Simon Peter beckoneth to him, and said to him: Who is it of whom he speaketh?📜💬📚
25 He therefore leaning upon the breast of JESUS saith to him: Lord, who is he?📜💬📚
26 JESUS answered: He it is to whom I shall reach the dipped bread. And when he had dipped the bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariote Simon's son.📜💬📚
27 And after the morsel, then Satan entered into him. And JESUS saith to him: That which thou doest, do it quickly.📜💬📚
28 But no man knew of those that sat at table to what purpose he said this unto him.📜💬📚
29 For certain thought, because Judas had the purse, that JESUS had said to him: Buy those things which are needful for us to the festival day: or that he should give some thing to the poor.📜💬📚
30 He therefore having received the morsel, incontinent went forth. And it was night.📜💬📚
Love One Another
31 When he therefore was gone forth, JESUS said: Now the Son of man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.📜💬📚
32 If God be glorified in him, God also will glorify him in himself, and incontinent will he glorify him.📜💬📚
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You shall seek me, & as I said to the Jews, whither I go, you can not come: to you also I say now.📜💬📚
34 A new commandment I give to you, That you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another.📜💬📚
35 In this all men shall know that you are my Disciples, if you have love one to another.📜💬📚
Jesus Predicts Peter's Denial
36 Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, whither goest thou? JESUS answered, Whither I go, thou canst not now follow me, but hereafter thou shalt follow.📜💬📚
37 Peter saith to him: Why can not I follow thee now? I will yield my life for thee.📜💬📚
38 JESUS answered him: Thy life wilt thou yield for me? Amen, amen I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, until thou deny me thrice.📜💬📚
