John 13:2-25

²Supper was finished, and the Devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Jesus.

³Jesus, knowing that the Father had given everything into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going to God,

⁴got up from supper, laid aside His outer garment, and wrapped a towel around His waist.

⁵Then He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around Him.

⁶Then He came to Simon Peter, and Peter asked Him, “Lord, are You washing my feet?”

⁷Jesus answered, “You don’t understand what I am doing now, but you will know after this.”

⁸Peter told Him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.”

⁹Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, not just my feet, but also my hands and my head!”

¹⁰Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to wash their feet, but is completely clean; and most of you are clean, but not all of you.”

¹¹For He knew who would betray Him, therefore He said, “You aren’t all clean.”

¹²When He had washed their feet, He put on His outer garment and sat down again. He asked them, “Do you know what I have done to you?

¹³You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right in saying so, for so I am.

¹⁴If I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

¹⁵I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.

¹⁶Most assuredly, I tell you, a servant isn’t greater than his master, nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him.

¹⁷If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.

¹⁸I’m not talking about all of you. I know who I have chosen; but this is to fulfill the Scripture, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’

¹⁹Now I tell you before it happens, that when it does happen, you may believe that I AM.

²⁰Most assuredly, I tell you, whoever receives anyone I send receives me; and he who receives me receives Him who sent me.”

²¹When Jesus had said these things, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Most assuredly, I tell you, one of you will betray me.”

²²The disciples began looking at one another, perplexed about which one of them He was talking about.

²³One of Jesus’ disciples, who Jesus sincerely loved, was leaning against His breast.

²⁴Simon Peter therefore nodded to him to ask who He spoke about.

²⁵Then, leaning back on Jesus’ breast, he asked Him, “Lord, who is it?”
