John - ch 13 v 1 - 20
- Before the festival day of the pasch, Jesus knowing that his hour was come, that he should pass out of this world to the Father: having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
- And when supper was done, (the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him,)
- Knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands, and that he came from God, and goeth to God;
- He riseth from supper, and layeth aside his garments, and having taken a towel, girded himself.
- After that, he putteth water into a basin, and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
- He cometh therefore to Simon Peter. And Peter saith to him: Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
- Jesus answered, and said to him: What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
- Peter saith to him: Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him: If I wash thee not, thou shalt have no part with me.
- Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head.
- 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.
- For he knew who he was that would betray him; therefore he said: You are not all clean.
- Then 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?
- You call me Master, and Lord; and you say well, for so I am.
- If then I being your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet.
- For I have given you an example, that as I have done to you, so you do also.
- Amen, amen I say to you: The servant is not greater than his lord; neither is the apostle greater than he that sent him.
- If you know these things, you shall be blessed if you do them.
- 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.
- At present I tell you, before it come to pass: that when it shall come to pass, you may believe that I am he.
- Amen, amen I say to you, he that receiveth whomsoever I send, receiveth me; and he that receiveth me, receiveth him that sent me.
