John 13:4-10 ▼

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

5 Then He poured water into the washbasin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel which He had tied around Himself.

6 So He came to Simon Peter. He said to Him, “Lord, are You going to wash my feet?”

7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not realize now, but you will understand afterwards.”

8 Peter said to Him, “You will never wash my feet—ever!” Jesus answered him, “If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”

9 Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head.”

10 Jesus 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.”
