John 13:1-17

1 But before the feast day of pask Jesus witting, that his hour is come, that he pass from this world to the Father [Jesus witting, for his hour cometh, that he pass over this world to the Father], when he had loved his that were in the world, into the end he loved them.

2 And when the supper was made, when the devil had put then into the heart, that Judas of Simon Iscariot should betray him, [And the supper made, when the devil had sent now into the heart of Judas, of Simon Iscariot, that he should betray him,]

3 he witting that the Father gave all things to him into his hands, and that he went out from God, and goeth to God,

4 he riseth from the supper, and doeth off his clothes; and when he had taken a linen cloth, he girded him(self).

5 And afterward he put water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe with the linen cloth, with which he was girded.

6 And so he came to Simon Peter, and Peter saith to him, Lord, washest thou my feet?

7 Jesus answered, and said to him, What I do, thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know afterward.

8 Peter saith to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered to him, If I shall not wash thee, thou shalt not have part with me.

9 Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, not only my feet, but both the hands and the head [but and mine hands and the head].

10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed, hath no need but that he wash the feet, but he is all clean [but he is clean all]; and ye be clean, but not all.

11 For he knew, who it was that should betray him [Forsooth he knew, who should betray him]; therefore he said, Ye be not all clean.

12 And so after that he had washed their feet, he took his clothes; and when he was set to meat again, again he said to them, Ye know what I have done to you. [Therefore after that he had washed the feet of them, he took his clothes; and when he had rested again, again he said to them, Know ye what I have done to you(?)]

13 Ye call me master and Lord, and ye say well; for I am.

14 Therefore if I, Lord and master, have washed your feet, and ye shall wash one another's feet [and ye owe to wash another the tother's feet];

15 for I have given to you ensample, that as I have done to you, so do ye. [for I have given example to you, that as I have done to you, so and ye do.]

16 Truly, truly, I say to you, the servant is not greater than his lord, neither an apostle is greater than he that sent him.

17 If ye know these things, ye shall be blessed, if ye do them.
