John 13:4-11

New King James Version

^4 (A)rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself. ⁵ After that, He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded. ⁶ Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, ^(B)“Lord, are You washing my feet?”

⁷ Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you ^(C)do not understand now, ^(D)but you will know after this.”

⁸ Peter said to Him, “You shall never wash my feet!”

Jesus answered him, ^(E)“If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”

⁹ Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”

¹⁰ Jesus said to him, “He who is bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and ^(F)you are clean, but not all of you.” ¹¹ For ^(G)He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.”
