The Allotment for Judah

15 The allotment for the tribe of the people of Judah according to their clans reached southward ^(A)to the boundary of Edom, to ^(B)the wilderness of Zin at the farthest south. ² And their south boundary ran from the end of the ^(C)Salt Sea, from the bay that faces southward. ³ It goes out southward of ^(D)the ascent of Akrabbim, passes along to Zin, and goes up south of Kadesh-barnea, along by Hezron, up to Addar, turns about to Karka, ⁴ passes along to Azmon, goes out by ^(E)the Brook of Egypt, and comes to its end at the sea. This shall be your south boundary. ⁵ And the east boundary is the ^(F)Salt Sea, to the mouth of the Jordan. And the boundary on the north side runs from the bay of the sea at the mouth of the Jordan. ⁶ And the boundary goes up to ^(G)Beth-hoglah and passes along north of ^(H)Beth-arabah. And the boundary goes up to ^(I)the stone of Bohan the son of Reuben. ⁷ And the boundary goes up to Debir from ^(J)the Valley of Achor, and so northward, turning toward Gilgal, which is opposite ^(K)the ascent of Adummim, which is on the south side of the valley. And the boundary passes along to the waters of ^(L)En-shemesh and ends at ^(M)En-rogel. ⁸ Then the boundary goes up by ^(N)the Valley of the Son of Hinnom at the southern shoulder of the Jebusite (^(O)that is, Jerusalem). And the boundary goes up to the top of the mountain that lies over against the Valley of Hinnom, on the west, at the northern end of the Valley ^(P)of Rephaim. ⁹ Then the boundary extends from the top of the mountain ^(Q)to the spring of the waters of Nephtoah, and from there to the cities of Mount Ephron. Then the boundary bends around to Baalah (^(R)that is, Kiriath-jearim). ¹⁰ And the boundary circles west of Baalah to Mount Seir, passes along to the northern shoulder of Mount Jearim (that is, Chesalon), and goes down to ^(S)Beth-shemesh and passes along by ^(T)Timnah. ¹¹ The boundary goes out ^(U)to the shoulder of the hill north of Ekron, then the boundary bends around to Shikkeron and passes along to Mount ^(V)Baalah and goes out to Jabneel. Then the boundary comes to an end at the sea. ¹² And the west boundary was ^(W)the Great Sea with its coastline. This is the boundary around the people of Judah according to their clans.

¹³ According to the commandment of the Lord to Joshua, he gave to Caleb the son of Jephunneh a portion among the people of Judah, ^(X)Kiriath-arba, that is, ^(Y)Hebron (Arba was the father of Anak). ¹⁴ And Caleb drove out from there the three sons of Anak, ^(Z)Sheshai and Ahiman and Talmai, the descendants of Anak. ¹⁵ And he went up from there against the inhabitants of Debir. ^(AA)Now the name of Debir formerly was Kiriath-sepher. ¹⁶ And Caleb said, “He who attacks Kiriath-sepher and captures it, I will give him Achsah my daughter as wife.” ^17 (AB)And Othniel the son of Kenaz, ^(AC)the brother of Caleb, captured it. And he gave him Achsah his daughter as wife. ¹⁸ When she came to him, she urged him to ask her father for a field. And she dismounted from her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?” ¹⁹ She said to him, “Give me a blessing. Since you have given me the land of the Negeb, give me also springs of water.” And he gave her the upper springs and the lower springs.

²⁰ This is the inheritance of the tribe of the people of Judah according to their clans. ²¹ The cities belonging to the tribe of the people of Judah in the extreme south, toward the boundary of Edom, were Kabzeel, ^(AD)Eder, Jagur, ²² Kinah, Dimonah, Adadah, ²³ Kedesh, Hazor, Ithnan, ^24 (AE)Ziph, Telem, Bealoth, ²⁵ Hazor-hadattah, Kerioth-hezron (that is, Hazor), ²⁶ Amam, Shema, Moladah, ²⁷ Hazar-gaddah, Heshmon, Beth-pelet, ²⁸ Hazar-shual, ^(AF)Beersheba, Biziothiah, ²⁹ Baalah, Iim, Ezem, ³⁰ Eltolad, Chesil, Hormah, ^31 (AG)Ziklag, Madmannah, Sansannah, ³² Lebaoth, Shilhim, Ain, and Rimmon: in all, twenty-nine cities with their villages.

Warning Against Adultery

Jesus Washes the Disciples' Feet

13 Now ^(A)before ^(B)the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that ^(C)his hour had come ^(D)to depart out of this world to the Father, ^(E)having loved ^(F)his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. ² During supper, when ^(G)the devil had already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him, ³ Jesus, knowing ^(H)that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that ^(I)he had come from God and ^(J)was going back to God, ⁴ rose from supper. He laid aside his outer garments, and taking a towel, ^(K)tied it around his waist. ⁵ Then he ^(L)poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. ⁶ He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” ^7 (M)Jesus answered him, “What I am doing ^(N)you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” ^8 (O)Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, ^(P)“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, ^(Q)except for his feet,^[a] but is completely clean. And ^(R)you^[b] are clean, ^(S)but not every one of you.” ^11 (T)For he knew who was to betray him; that was why he said, “Not all of you are clean.”

¹² When he had washed their feet and ^(U)put on his outer garments and resumed his place, he said to them, ^(V)“Do you understand what I have done to you? ^13 (W)You call me ^(X)Teacher and Lord, and you are right, for so I am. ¹⁴ If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, ^(Y)you also ought to wash one another's feet. ¹⁵ For I have given you an example, ^(Z)that you also should do just as I have done to you. ¹⁶ Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(AA)a servant^[c] is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. ¹⁷ If you know these things, ^(AB)blessed are you if you do them. ^18 (AC)I am not speaking of all of you; I know ^(AD)whom I have chosen. But ^(AE)the Scripture will be fulfilled,^{[d] (AF)}‘He who ate my bread has lifted his heel against me.’ ^19 (AG)I am telling you this now, before it takes place, that when it does take place you may believe that I am he. ²⁰ Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(AH)whoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.”

One of You Will Betray Me

²¹ After saying these things, ^(AI)Jesus was troubled in his spirit, and testified, ^(AJ)“Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(AK)one of you will betray me.” ^22 (AL)The disciples looked at one another, uncertain of whom he spoke. ^23 (AM)One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was reclining at table ^(AN)at Jesus' side,^{[e] 24} so Simon Peter motioned to him to ask Jesus^[f] of whom he was speaking. ^25 (AO)So that disciple, ^(AP)leaning back against Jesus, said to him, “Lord, who is it?” ²⁶ Jesus answered, ^(AQ)“It is he to whom I will give this morsel of bread ^(AR)when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the morsel, ^(AS)he gave it to Judas, ^(AT)the son of Simon Iscariot. ²⁷ Then after he had taken the morsel, ^(AU)Satan entered into him. Jesus said to him, ^(AV)“What you are going to do, do quickly.” ²⁸ Now no one at the table knew why he said this to him. ²⁹ Some thought that, ^(AW)because Judas had the moneybag, Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need ^(AX)for the feast,” or that he should ^(AY)give something to the poor. ³⁰ So, after receiving the morsel of bread, he immediately went out. ^(AZ)And it was night.

A New Commandment

³¹ When he had gone out, Jesus said, ^(BA)“Now is the Son of Man glorified, and ^(BB)God is glorified in him. ³² If God is glorified in him, ^(BC)God will also glorify him in himself, and ^(BD)glorify him at once. ³³ Little children, ^(BE)yet a little while I am with you. You will seek me, and just ^(BF)as I said to the Jews, so now I also say to you, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’ ^34 (BG)A new commandment ^(BH)I give to you, ^(BI)that you love one another: ^(BJ)just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. ^35 (BK)By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Jesus Foretells Peter's Denial

³⁶ Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” ^(BL)Jesus answered him, “Where I am going ^(BM)you cannot follow me now, ^(BN)but you will follow afterward.” ^37 (BO)Peter said to him, “Lord, why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.” ³⁸ Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, ^(BP)the rooster will not crow till you have denied me three times.
