1 Before the feast day of the Passover, Jesus knew that the hour was approaching when he would pass from this world to the Father. And since he had always loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end. Now before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that his hour had come to depart out of this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
2 And when the meal had taken place, when the devil had now put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him, During supper, when the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him, The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.
3 knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands and that he came from God and was going to God, Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going back to God, Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God;
4 he rose up from the meal, and he set aside his vestments, and when he had received a towel, he wrapped it around himself. rose from supper. He laid aside his outer garments, and taking a towel, tied it around his waist. so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist.
5 Next he put water into a shallow bowl, and he began to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel with which he was wrapped. Then 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. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
6 And then he came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to him, “Lord, would you wash my feet?” He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”
7 Jesus responded and said to him: “What I am doing, you do not now understand. But you shall understand it afterward.” Jesus answered him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”
8 Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you will have no place with me.” Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.” “No,” said Peter, “you shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.”
9 Simon Peter said to him, “Then Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head!” Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!” “Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied, “not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!”
10 Jesus said to him: “He who is washed need only wash his feet, and then he will be entirely clean. And you are clean, but not all.” Jesus said to him, “The one who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not every one of you.” Jesus answered, “Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you.”
11 For he knew which one would betray him. For this reason, he said, “You are not all clean.” For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, “Not all of you are clean.” For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean.
12 And so, after he washed their feet and received his vestments, when he had sat down at table again, he said to them: “Do you know what I have done for you? When he had washed their feet and put on his outer garments and resumed his place, he said to them, “Do you understand what I have done to you? When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. “Do you understand what I have done for you?” he asked them.
13 You call me Teacher and Lord, and you speak well: for so I am. You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. “You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am.
14 Therefore, if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash the feet of one another. If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.
15 For I have given you an example, so that just as I have done for you, so also should you do. For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done to you. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.
16 Amen, amen, I say to you, the servant is not greater than his Lord, and the apostle is not greater than he who sent him. Truly, truly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.
17 If you understand this, you shall be blessed if you will do it. If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
18 I am not speaking about all of you. I know those whom I have chosen. But this is so that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me shall lift up his heel against me.’ I am not speaking of all of you; I know whom I have chosen. But the Scripture will be fulfilled, ‘He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.’ “I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture: ‘He who shared my bread has turned against me.’
19 And I tell you this now, before it happens, so that when it has happened, you may believe that I am. I am telling you this now, before it takes place, that when it does take place you may believe that I am he. “I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am who I am.
20 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives anyone whom I send, receives me. And whoever receives me, receives him who sent me.” Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.” Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.”
21 When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit. And he bore witness by saying: “Amen, amen, I say to you, that one among you shall betray me.” After saying these things, Jesus was troubled in his spirit, and testified, “Truly, truly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.” After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, “Very truly I tell you, one of you is going to betray me.”
22 Therefore, the disciples looked around at one another, uncertain about whom he spoke. The disciples looked at one another, uncertain of whom he spoke. His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant.
23 And leaning against the bosom of Jesus was one of his disciples, the one whom Jesus loved. One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was reclining at table at Jesus’ side, One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him.
24 Therefore, Simon Peter motioned to this one and said to him, “Who is it that he is speaking about?” so Simon Peter motioned to him to ask Jesus of whom he was speaking. Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, “Ask him which one he means.”
25 And so, leaning against the chest of Jesus, he said to him, “Lord, who is it?” So that disciple, leaning back against Jesus, said to him, “Lord, who is it?” Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesus responded, “It is he to whom I shall extend the dipped bread.” And when he had dipped the bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon. Jesus answered, “It is he to whom I will give this morsel of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.” Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
27 And after the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly.” Then after he had taken the morsel, Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly.” As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. So Jesus told him, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”
28 Now none of those sitting at table knew why he had said this to him. Now no one at the table knew why he said this to him. But no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him.
29 For some were thinking that, because Judas held the purse, that Jesus had told him, “Buy those things which are needed by us for the feast day,” or that he might give something to the needy. Some thought that, because Judas had the moneybag, Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor. Since Judas had charge of the money, some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the festival, or to give something to the poor.
30 Therefore, having accepted the morsel, he went out immediately. And it was night. So, after receiving the morsel of bread, he immediately went out. And it was night. As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night.
31 Then, when he had gone out, Jesus said: “Now the Son of man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in him. When he was gone, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified and God is glorified in him.
32 If God has been glorified in him, then God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him without delay. If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and glorify him at once. If God is glorified in him, God will glorify the Son in himself, and will glorify him at once.
33 Little sons, for a brief while, I am with you. You shall seek me, and just as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you are not able to go,’ so also I say to you now. Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and just as I said to the Jews, so now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’ “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.
34 I give you a new commandment: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, so also must you love one another. A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
35 By this, all shall recognize that you are my disciples: if you will have love for one another.” By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus responded: “Where I am going, you are not able to follow me now. But you shall follow afterward.” Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered him, “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but you will follow afterward.” Simon Peter asked him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied, “Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow later.”
37 Peter said to him: “Why am I unable to follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!” Peter said to him, “Lord, why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.” Peter asked, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
38 Jesus answered him: “You will lay down your life for me? Amen, amen, I say to you, the rooster will not crow, until you deny me three times.” Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the rooster will not crow till you have denied me three times. Then Jesus answered, “Will you really lay down your life for me? Very truly I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times!
