John 13:2-20
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 13
2And during supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him, 3Jesus, knowing that the Father had handed all things over to Him, and that He had come forth from God and was going back to God, 4*got up from supper and *laid His outer garments aside; and He took a towel and tied it around Himself.
5Then He *poured water into the basin, and began washing the disciples’ feet and wiping them with the towel which He had tied around Himself.
6So He *came to Simon Peter. He *said to Him, 'Lord, You are washing my feet?'
7Jesus answered and said to him, 'What I am doing, you do not realize right now, but you will understand later.'
8Peter *said to Him, 'Never shall You wash my feet!' Jesus answered him, 'If I do not wash you, you have no place with Me.'
9Simon Peter *said to Him, 'Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head!'
10Jesus *said to him, 'He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet; otherwise he is completely clean. And you are clean—but not all of you.'
11For He knew the one who was betraying Him; it was for this reason that He said, 'Not all of you are clean.'
12Then, when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, 'Do you know what I have done for you?
13You call Me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord’; and you are correct, for so I am.
14So if I, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
15For I gave you an example, so that you also would do just as I did for you.
16Truly, truly I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor is one who is sent greater than the one who sent him.
17If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.
18I am not speaking about all of you. I know the ones whom I have chosen; but this is happening so that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘HE WHO EATS MY BREAD HAS LIFTED UP HIS HEEL AGAINST ME.’
19From now on I am telling you before it happens, so that when it does happen, you may believe that I am He.
20Truly, truly I say to you, the one who receives anyone I send, receives Me; and the one who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.'
King James Version
Chapter 13
2And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him; 3Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; 4He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself. 5After 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. 6Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet? 7Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter. 8Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me. 9Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. 10Jesus 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. 11For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
12So 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
13Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
14If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
18I 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.
19Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
20Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

Chapter 13
2Now when it was time for supper, the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas, Simon Iscariot’s son, to betray him. 3Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into his hands, that he had come from God, and that he was going back to God. 4So he got up from supper, laid aside his outer clothing, took a towel, and tied it around himself. 5Next, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet and to dry them with the towel tied around him.
10"One who has bathed," Jesus told him, "doesn’t need to wash anything except his feet, but he is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you."
11For he knew who would betray him. This is why he said, "Not all of you are clean."
12When Jesus had washed their feet and put on his outer clothing, he reclined again and said to them, "Do you know what I have done for you?
13You call me Teacher and Lord—and you are speaking rightly, since that is what I am.
14So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
15For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done for you.
16"Truly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his master, and a messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.
17If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.
18"I’m not speaking about all of you; I know those I have chosen. But the Scripture must be fulfilled: The one who eats my bread has raised his heel against me.
19I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am he.
20Truly I tell you, whoever receives anyone I send receives me, and the one who receives me receives him who sent me."

Chapter 13
2It was time for supper, and the devil had already prompted Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. 3Jesus knew that the Father had given him authority over everything and that he had come from God and would return to God. 4So he got up from the table, took off his robe, wrapped a towel around his waist, 5and poured water into a basin. Then he began to wash the disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel he had around him.
10Jesus replied, 'A person who has bathed all over does not need to wash, except for the feet, to be entirely clean. And you disciples are clean, but not all of you.'
11For Jesus knew who would betray him. That is what he meant when he said, 'Not all of you are clean.'
12After washing their feet, he put on his robe again and sat down and asked, 'Do you understand what I was doing?
13You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you are right, because that’s what I am.
14And since I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet.
15I have given you an example to follow. Do as I have done to you.
16I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message.
17Now that you know these things, God will bless you for doing them.
18I am not saying these things to all of you; I know the ones I have chosen. But this fulfills the Scripture that says, ‘The one who eats my food has turned against me.’
19I tell you this beforehand, so that when it happens you will believe that I AM the Messiah.
20I tell you the truth, anyone who welcomes my messenger is welcoming me, and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming the Father who sent me.'

Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no share with me." 9Simon Peter said to him, "Lord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!" 10Jesus 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." 11For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, "Not all of you are clean."
12When 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?
13You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am.

19I am telling you this now, before it takes place, that when it does take place you may believe that I am he.
20Truly, truly, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me."

Chapter 13
2The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. 3Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; 4so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist. 5After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
10Jesus 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."
11For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean.
12When 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 rightly so, for that is what I am.
14Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.
15I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.
16Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.
17Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

18“I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with Me has lifted up his heel against Me.’
19Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I am He.
20Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”
