John 13:4-14

⁴riseth from the supper, and layeth aside his garments, and took a towel, and girded himself.

⁵Then he poureth water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

⁶So he cometh to Simon Peter; who saith to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

⁷Jesus answered and said to him, What I do thou knowest not now, but thou wilt know hereafter.

⁸Peter saith to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

⁹Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

¹⁰Jesus saith to him, He that hath bathed needeth not to wash himself, but is wholly clean; and ye are clean, but not all.

¹¹For he knew who was about to betray him; for this reason he said, Ye are not all clean.

¹²So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and placed himself again at the table, he said to them, Know ye what I have done to you?

¹³Ye call me the Teacher, and the Lord; and ye say well; for so I am.

¹⁴If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
