John:13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now before the feast of the passover ,
Jesus ,
knowing that his hour had come that he should depart out of this world to the Father ,
having loved his own who were in the world ,
loved them to the end .
*
And during supper ,
the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas [
son ]
of Simon ,
Iscariote ,
that he should deliver him up ,
* [
Jesus ,]
knowing that the Father had given him all things into his hands ,
and that he came out from God and was going to God ,
*
rises from supper and lays aside his garments ,
and having taken a linen towel he girded himself :
*
then he pours water into the washhand basin ,
and began to wash the feet of the disciples ,
and to wipe them with the linen towel with which he was girded .
*
He comes therefore to Simon Peter ;
and he says to him ,
Lord ,
dost thou wash my feet ?
*
Jesus answered and said to him ,
What I do thou dost not know now ,
but thou shalt know hereafter .
*
Peter says to him ,
Thou shalt never wash my feet .
Jesus answered him ,
Unless I wash thee ,
thou hast not part with me .
*
Simon Peter says to him ,
Lord ,
not my feet only ,
but also my hands and my head .
*
Jesus says to him ,
He that is washed all over needs not to wash save his feet ,
but is wholly clean ;
and ye are clean ,
but not all .
*
For he knew him that delivered him up :
on account of this he said ,
Ye are not all clean .
*
When therefore he had washed their feet ,
and taken his garments ,
having sat down again ,
he said to them ,
Do ye know what I have done to you ?
*
Ye call me the Teacher and the Lord ,
and ye say well ,
for I am [
so ].
*
If I therefore ,
the Lord and the Teacher ,
have washed your feet ,
ye also ought to wash one another '
s feet ;
*
for I have given you an example that ,
as I have done to you ,
ye should do also .
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say to you ,
The bondman is not greater than his lord ,
nor the sent greater than he who has sent him .
*
If ye know these things ,
blessed are ye if ye do them .
*
I speak not of you all .
I know those whom I have chosen ;
but that the scripture might be fulfilled ,
He that eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me .
*
I tell you [
it ]
now before it happens ,
that when it happens ,
ye may believe that I am [
he ].
*
Verily ,
verily ,
I say to you ,
He who receives whomsoever I shall send receives me ;
and he that receives me receives him who has sent me .
*
Having said these things ,
Jesus was troubled in spirit ,
and testified and said ,
Verily ,
verily ,
I say to you ,
that one of you shall deliver me up .
*
The disciples therefore looked one on another ,
doubting of whom he spoke .
*
Now there was at table one of his disciples in the bosom of Jesus ,
whom Jesus loved .
*
Simon Peter makes a sign therefore to him to ask who it might be of whom he spoke .
*
But he ,
leaning on the breast of Jesus ,
says to him ,
Lord ,
who is it ?
*
Jesus answers ,
He it is to whom I ,
after I have dipped the morsel ,
give it .
And having dipped the morsel ,
he gives it to Judas [
son ]
of Simon ,
Iscariote .
*
And ,
after the morsel ,
then entered Satan into him .
Jesus therefore says to him ,
What thou doest ,
do quickly .
*
But none of those at table knew why he said this to him ;
*
for some supposed ,
because Judas had the bag ,
that Jesus was saying to him ,
Buy the things of which we have need for the feast ;
or that he should give something to the poor .
*
Having therefore received the morsel ,
he went out immediately ;
and it was night .
*
When therefore he was gone out Jesus says ,
Now is the Son of man glorified ,
and God is glorified in him .
*
If God be glorified in him ,
God also shall glorify him in himself ,
and shall glorify him immediately .
*
Children ,
yet a little while I am with you .
Ye shall seek me ;
and ,
as I said to the Jews ,
Where I go ye cannot come ,
I say to you also now .
*
A new commandment I give to you ,
that ye love one another ;
as I have loved you ,
that ye also love one another .
*
By this shall all know that ye are disciples of mine ,
if ye have love amongst yourselves .
*
Simon Peter says to him ,
Lord ,
where goest thou ?
Jesus answered him ,
Where I go thou canst not follow me now ,
but thou shalt follow me after .
*
Peter says to him ,
Lord ,
why cannot I follow thee now ?
I will lay down my life for thee .
*
Jesus answers ,
Thou wilt lay down thy life for me !
Verily ,
verily ,
I say to thee ,
The cock shall not crow till thou hast denied me thrice .
