John:13:1-17
isv@John:13:1 @ Now before the Passover Festival, Jesus realized that his hour had come to leave this world and return to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
isv@John:13:2 @ By supper time, the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray him.
isv@John:13:3 @ Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he had come from God and was returning to God,
isv@John:13:4 @ got up from the table, removed his outer robe, and took a towel and fastened it around his waist.
isv@John:13:5 @ Then he poured some water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to dry them with the towel that was tied around his waist.
isv@John:13:6 @ Then he came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?”
isv@John:13:7 @ Jesus answered him,“You do not realize now what I am doing, but later on you will understand.”
isv@John:13:8 @ Peter said to him, “You must never wash my feet!”Jesus answered him,“Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.”
isv@John:13:9 @ Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not just my feet, but my hands and my head as well!”
isv@John:13:10 @ Jesus told him,“The person who has bathed does not need to wash, except for his feet, but is entirely clean. And you menare clean, though not all of you.”
isv@John:13:11 @ For he knew who was going to betray him. That's why he said,“Not all of you are clean.”
isv@John:13:12 @ When he had washed their feet and put on his outer robe, he sat down again and said to them,“Do you realize what I have done to you?
isv@John:13:13 @ You call me Teacher and Lord, and you are right because that is what I am.
isv@John:13:14 @ So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you must also wash one another's feet.
isv@John:13:15 @ For I have given you an example, so that you may do as I have done to you.
isv@John:13:16 @ Truly, truly I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, and a messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.
isv@John:13:17 @ If you understand these things, how blessed you are if you put them into practice!
