Chapter 13 |
|
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. |
