1 Now 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.
2 And supper being ended , the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot , Simon’s son, to betray him;
3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands , and that he was come from God, and went to God;
4 He riseth from supper , and laid aside his garments ; and took a towel , and girded himself .
5 After 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 .
6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter : and Peter saith unto him, Lord , dost thou wash my feet ?
7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter .
8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet . Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord , not my feet only , but also my hands and my head .
10 Jesus 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.
11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean .
12 So 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?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord : and ye say well ; for so I am.
14 If I then , your Lord and Master , have washed your feet ; ye also ought to wash one another’s feet .
15 For I have given you an example , that ye should do as I have done to you.
16 Verily , verily , I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord ; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 If ye know these things , happy are ye if ye do them .
18 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 hath lifted up his heel against me.
19 Now I tell you before it come , that , when it is come to pass , ye may believe that I am he.
20 Verily , verily , I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
21 When 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.
22 Then the disciples looked one on another , doubting of whom he spake .
23 Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of his disciples , whom Jesus loved .
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake .
25 He then lying on Jesus’ breast saith unto him, Lord , who is it?
26 Jesus 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 .
27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest , do quickly .
28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
29 For 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 .
30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night .
31 Therefore , when he was gone out, Jesus said , Now is the Son of man glorified , and God is glorified in him.
32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself , and shall straightway glorify him.
33 Little 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.
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another ; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another .
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples , if ye have love one to another .
36 Simon 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 .
37 Peter said unto him, Lord , why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake .
38 Jesus 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 .
