1 Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus knowing that His hour had come, that He would depart out of this world to the Father, having loved [His] own who [were] in the world, He loved them to [the] end. VP

2 And supper taking place [and] the devil already having put into the heart of Judas [son] of Simon Iscariot that he should deliver Him up, VP

3 knowing that the Father has given to Him all things into the hands, and that He came forth from God and He is going to God, VP

4 He rises from the supper and lays aside [His] garments. And having taken a towel, He girded Himself. VP

5 After that, He pours water into the basin, and He began to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe [them] with the towel with which He was girded. VP

6 Then He comes to Simon Peter, who says to Him, “Lord, do You wash my feet?” VP

7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I do, you do not know presently, but you will know after these things.” VP

8 Peter says to Him, “Never shall You wash my feet, to the age!” Jesus answered him, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with Me.” VP

9 Simon Peter says to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also the hands and the head!” VP

10 Jesus says to him, “The [one] having been bathed has no need to wash, except the feet, but is wholly clean. And you⁺ are clean, but not all.” VP

11 For He knew the [one who] is delivering Him up; because of this He said, “You⁺ are not all clean.” VP

12 Therefore when He washed their feet and took His garments and reclined again, He said to them, “Do you⁺ know what I have done to you⁺? VP

13 You⁺ call Me Teacher and Lord, and you⁺ say rightly, for I am. VP

14 Therefore if I, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your⁺ feet, you⁺ also ought to wash the feet of one another. VP

15 For I gave you⁺ an example so that as I did to you⁺, you⁺ also should do. VP

16 Truly, truly, I say to you⁺, a servant is not greater than his master, nor a messenger greater than the [one] having sent him. VP

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

18 I speak not about all of you⁺—I know whom I chose—but so that the Scripture may be fulfilled: ‘The [one] eating My bread lifted up his heel against Me.’ VP

19 I am telling you⁺ from this time, before it comes to pass, so that when it comes to pass, you⁺ shall believe that I am [He]. VP

20 Truly, truly, I say to you⁺, the [one] receiving anyone I may send receives Me, and the [one] receiving Me receives the [One] having sent Me.” VP

21 Having said these things, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and He testified and said, “Truly, truly, I say to you⁺ that one of you⁺ will deliver Me up.” VP

22 The disciples began to look upon one another, being uncertain of whom He is speaking. VP

23 There was reclining one of His disciples, whom Jesus was loving, in the bosom of Jesus. VP

24 Therefore Simon Peter motions to this [one] to inquire who it might be about whom He is speaking. VP

25 Then he thus having reclined on the breast of Jesus, says to Him, “Lord, who is it?” VP

26 Then Jesus answers, “It is he to whom I will dip the morsel and will give [it] to him.” Then, having dipped the morsel, He takes [it] and gives [it] to Judas [son] of Simon Iscariot. VP

27 And after the morsel, then Satan entered into him. Therefore Jesus says to him, “What you do, do quickly.” VP

28 Now none of those reclining knew toward what He said this to him. VP

29 For some were thinking, since Judas had the money bag, that Jesus is saying to him, “Buy what things we have need [of] for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor. VP

30 Therefore, having received the morsel, he went out immediately. And it was night. VP

31 Therefore when he went out, Jesus says, “Now the Son of Man was glorified, and God was glorified in Him. VP

32 If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and He will glorify Him immediately. VP

33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you⁺. You⁺ will seek Me, and as I said to the Jews, now I say also to you⁺: ‘Where I go, you⁺ are not able to come.’ VP

34 A new commandment I give to you⁺, that you⁺ should love one another. As I have loved you⁺, so you⁺ also should love one another. VP

35 By this all will know that you⁺ are My disciples, if you⁺ shall have love among one another.” VP

36 Simon Peter says to Him, “Lord, where are You going?” Jesus answered him, “Where I go, you are not able to follow Me now, but you will follow afterward.” VP

37 Peter says to Him, “Lord, why am I not able to follow You presently? I will lay down my life for You.” VP

38 Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, [the] rooster will not crow until you will deny Me three times.[] VP
