John 13

The Lord’s Supper

1 Now before the Feast of athe Passover, Jesus, knowing that bHis hour had come that He would depart from this world cto the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them
Or to the uttermost; or eternally
to the end.
2And during supper, ethe devil having already put into the heart of fJudas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him, 3Jesus, gknowing that the Father had handed all things over to Him, and that hHe had come forth from God and was going back to God, 4*got up from supper and *laid His outer garments aside; and He took a towel and itied it around Himself.

Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet

5 Then He *poured water into the basin, and began jwashing the disciples’ feet and wiping them with the towel which He had tied around Himself. 6So He *came to Simon Peter. He *said to Him, “Lord, You are washing my feet?” 7Jesus answered and said to him, What I am doing, you do not realize right now, but you will understand klater.” 8Peter *said to Him, “Never shall You wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, lIf I do not wash you, myou have no
Or part
place with Me.”
9Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head!” 10Jesus *said to him, “He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet; otherwise he is completely clean. And oyou are clean--but
I.e., not each one
not all of you.
11For qHe knew the one who was betraying Him; it was for this reason that He said, “Not all of you are clean.”

12 Then, when He had washed their feet, and rtaken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you know what I have done for you? 13 You call Me s‘Teacher’ and t‘Lord’; and
Lit you say well
you are correct, for so I am.
14 So if I, vthe Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15 For I gave you wan example, so that you also would do just as I did for you. 16 Truly, truly I say to you, xa slave is not greater than his master, nor is
Gr apostolos used in a non-apostolic sense
,
zone who is sent greater than the one who sent him.
17 If you know these things, you are aablessed if you do them. 18 abI am not speaking about all of you. I know the ones whom I have acchosen; but this is happening adso that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘ aeHe who eats My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’ 19 From now on afI am telling you before it happens, so that when it does happen, you may believe that agI am He. 20 Truly, truly I say to you, ahthe one who
Or accepts
receives anyone I send,
Or accepts
receives Me; and the one who
Or accepts
receives Me
Or accepts
receives Him who sent Me.”


Jesus Predicts His Betrayal

21 When Jesus had said these things, He ambecame troubled in spirit, and
I.e., made a solemn assertion
testified and said, Truly, truly I say to you that aoone of you will
Or hand Me over
betray Me.”
22The disciples began looking at one another, aqat a loss to know of which one He was speaking. 23Lying back on arJesus’ chest was one of His disciples, aswhom Jesus loved. 24So Simon Peter *nodded to this disciple and *said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking.” 25He then simply atleaned back on Jesus’ chest and *said to Him, “Lord, who is it?” 26Jesus then *answered, That man is the one for whom I shall dip the piece of bread and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the piece of bread, He *took and *gave it to Judas, authe son of Simon Iscariot. 27After
Lit the piece
this, awSatan then axentered him. Therefore Jesus *said to him, What you are doing, do it quickly.”
28Now none of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him. 29For some were assuming, since Judas aykept the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we need azfor the feast”; or else, that he was to

,
bbgive something to the poor.
30So after receiving the piece of bread, he left immediately; and bcit was night.

31 Therefore when he had left, Jesus *said, Now
Or was
is bethe Son of Man bfglorified, and bgGod
Or was
is glorified in Him;
32
Most early mss do not contain this phrase
if God is glorified in Him, bjGod will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately.
33 bkLittle children, I am still with you bla little longer. bmYou will look for Me; and just as I said to the
I.e., Jesus’ Jewish enemies
Jews, now I also say to you: ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’
34 I am giving you a bonew commandment, bpthat you love one another; bqjust as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 brBy this all people will know that you are My disciples: if you have love for one another.”

36 Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?” Jesus answered, bsWhere I am going, you cannot follow Me now; but btyou will follow later.” 37Peter *said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You right now? buI will lay down my life for You.” 38Jesus *replied, “Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly I say to you, bva rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.
