LO - John - 13

13:1  Jesus having perceived, before the feast of the passover, that his time to remove out of this world to his Father, was come; and having loved his own, who were in the world, he loved them to the last.

13:2  Now while they were at the supper, (the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him,)

13:3  Jesus, though he knew that the Father had subjected everything to him, and that he came from God, and was returning to God;

13:4  arose from supper, and laying aside his mantle, girt himself about with a towel.

13:5  Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.

13:6  When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, Master, would you wash my feet?

13:7  Jesus answered, At present you do not comprehend what I am doing; but you shall know hereafter.

13:8  Peter replied, You shall never wash my feet. Jesus answered, Unless I wash you, you can have no part with me.

13:9  Simon Peter said to him, Master, not my feet only; but also my hands and my head.

13:10  Jesus replied, He who has been bathing, needs only to wash his feet; the rest of his body being clean.

13:11  You are clean, but not all. For he knew who would betray him; therefore he said, You are not all clean.

13:12  After he had washed their feet, he put on his mantle, and replacing himself at table, said to them, Do you understand what I have been doing to you?

13:13  You call me the Teacher and the Master; and you say right; for so I am.

13:14  If I, then, the Master and the Teacher, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet.

13:15  For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

13:16  Most assuredly, I say to you, the servant is not greater than his master, nor is the apostle greater than he who sends him.

13:17  Happy are you, who know these things, provided you practice them.

13:18  I speak not of you all. I know whom I have chosen: but the scripture must be fulfilled, "He that eats at my table, has lifted up his heel against me."

13:19  I tell you this now, before it happen; that when it happens, you may believe that I am the Messiah .

13:20  Most assuredly, I say to you, he that receives whomsoever I send, receives me; and he that receives me, receives him who sent me.

13:21  After uttering these words, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and declared, saying, Most assuredly, I say to you, one of you will betray me.

13:22  Then the disciples looked one upon another, doubting of whom he spoke.

13:23  Now one of his disciples, one whom Jesus loved, was lying close to his breast:

13:24  Simon Peter, therefore, made a sign to him, to inquire whom he meant.

13:25  He, then, reclining on Jesus' bosom, said to him, Master, who is it?

13:26  Jesus answered, It is he to whom I shall give this morsel, after I have dipped it. And having dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

13:27  After receiving the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to him, What you do, do quickly.

13:28  But none at the table knew, why he gave this order.

13:29  Some imagined, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had signified to him to buy necessaries for the festival; or, to give something to the poor.

13:30  When Judas had taken the morsel, he immediately went out: and it was night.

13:31  When he was gone, Jesus said, the Son of Man is now glorified, and God is glorified by him.

13:32  If God is glorified by him, God also will glorify him by himself, and that without delay.

13:33  My children, I have now but a little time to be with you. You will seek me, and what I said to the Jews, Whither I go, you can not come; I say at present to you.

13:34  A new commandment I give you, that you love one another; that as I have loved you, you also love one another.

13:35  By this shall all men know, that you are my disciples, if you have love one to another.

13:36  Simon Peter said to him, Master, whither are you going? Jesus answered, Whither I am going, you can not follow me now; but afterward you shall follow me.

13:37  Peter replied, Master, why can not I follow you presently? I will lay down my life for your sake!

13:38  Jesus answered him, Will you lay down your life for my sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the cock shall not crow, till you have disowned me thrice.
