John 13:6-11
New King James Version
6 Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, (A)“Lord, are You washing my feet?”
7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you (B)do not understand now, (C)but you will know after this.”
8 Peter said to Him, “You shall never wash my feet!”
Jesus answered him, (D)“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 (E)you are clean, but not all of you.” 11 For (F)He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.”

6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” 7 (A)Jesus answered him, “What I am doing (B)you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” 8 (C)Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, (D)“If I do not wash you, you have no share 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, “The one who has bathed does not need to wash, (E)except for his feet,[a] but is completely clean. And (F)you[b] are clean, (G)but not every one of you.” 11 (H)For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”
