1Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

1Now 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.

2And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

2During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him,

3Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;

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

4He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.

4got up from supper, and laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself.

5After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

5Then He poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.

6Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

6So He came to Simon Peter. He said to Him, "Lord, do You wash my feet?"

7Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.

7Jesus answered and said to him, "What I do you do not realize now, but you will understand hereafter."

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

8Peter said to Him, "Never shall You wash my feet!" Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me."

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

9Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head."

10Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

10Jesus said to him, "He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."

11For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

11For He knew the one who was betraying Him; for this reason He said, "Not all of you are clean."

12So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

12So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

13Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

13"You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.

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

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

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

15"For I gave you an example that you also should do as I did to you.

16Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

16"Truly, truly, I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.

17If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

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

18I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.

18"I do not speak of all of you. I know the ones I have chosen; but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, 'HE WHO EATS MY BREAD HAS LIFTED UP HIS HEEL AGAINST ME.'

19Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.

19"From now on I am telling you before it comes to pass, so that when it does occur, you may believe that I am He.

20Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

20"Truly, truly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me."

21When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

21When Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit, and testified and said, "Truly, truly, I say to you, that one of you will betray Me."

22Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.

22The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know of which one He was speaking.

23Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

23There was reclining on Jesus' bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved.

24Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.

24So Simon Peter gestured to him, and said to him, "Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking."

25He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

25He, leaning back thus on Jesus' bosom, said to Him, "Lord, who is it?"

26Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

26Jesus then answered, "That is the one for whom I shall dip the morsel and give it to him." So when He had dipped the morsel, He took and gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.

27And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

27After the morsel, Satan then entered into him. Therefore Jesus said to him, "What you do, do quickly."

28Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.

28Now no one of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him.

29For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

29For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, "Buy the things we have need of for the feast"; or else, that he should give something to the poor.

30He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.

30So after receiving the morsel he went out immediately; and it was night.

31Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

31Therefore when he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him;

32If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.

32if God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately.

33Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

33"Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, 'Where I am going, you cannot come.'

34A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

34"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

35By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

35"By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."

36Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.

36Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, where are You going?" Jesus answered, "Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but you will follow later."

37Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.

37Peter said to Him, "Lord, why can I not follow You right now? I will lay down my life for You."

38Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

38Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.
