弟子の足を洗うイエス
13 過越の祭りの前に、イエスは、いよいよこの世を去って父のもとに帰る最後の時が来たことを知り、弟子たちに対する愛を余すところなく示されました。 2 夕食の間のことです。悪魔はすでに、シモンの子イスカリオテのユダに、「今夜こそ、かねてからの計画を実行に移す絶好の時だ」という思いを吹き込んでいました。 3 イエスは、父がすべてのものを与えてくださったことと、自分が神のもとから来て、また神のもとに帰ろうとしていることを知り、 4 夕食の席からゆっくり立ち上がり、上着を脱ぎ、手ぬぐいを取って腰に巻かれました。 5 そしてたらいに水を入れ、弟子たち一人一人の足を洗い、腰の手ぬぐいでふき始められたのです。 6 シモン・ペテロの番になりました。ペテロは言いました。「主よ。足を洗っていただくなど、もったいなくてとてもできません。」 7 イエスは言われました。「なぜこんなことをするのか、今はわからないでしょう。だが、あとでわかるようになります。」 8 「いいえ。どうかもう、おやめください」とペテロは言いはります。「もしわたしが足を洗わなければ、あなたはわたしの仲間にはなれません」とイエスは答えられました。 9 するとペテロはあわてて、「そ、それなら、足だけとおっしゃらず、手も、それに頭も洗ってください」と言いました。 10 「水浴した者は、足だけ洗えば全身がきよくなります。今あなたがたはきよいのですが、みながみな、きよいというわけではありません。」 11 イエスはだれが裏切り者かわかっていたので、「みながみな、きよいわけではない」と言われたのです。
12 イエスは弟子たちの足を洗い終えると、また上着を着て席に戻り、改めてお尋ねになりました。「わたしのしたことがわかりますか。 13 あなたがたはわたしを『先生』とも『主』とも呼んでいます。それはかまいません。そのとおりなのですから。 14 その、主でも先生でもあるわたしが足を洗ってあげたのですから、あなたがたも互いに足を洗い合いなさい。 15 わたしは模範を示したのです。わたしがしたとおりに、あなたがたもしなさい。 16 使用人はその主人にまさらず、遣わした人より使者のほうがまさるということもありません。 17 このことがわかったら、すぐ実行しなさい。そうすれば祝福されるのです。 18 あなたがた全員にこう言っているのではありません。あなたがたを選んだのは、このわたしです。ですから、一人一人がどんな人間かよく知っています。聖書には、『わたしと食事を共にしている者が、わたしを裏切る』(詩篇41・9)とはっきり書いてあるでしょう。いいですか。まもなく、そのとおりのことが起こるのです。 19 今そのことを話しておきましょう。その時になって、あなたがたがわたしを信じられるように。 20 よく言っておきます。わたしが遣わす者を心から受け入れる人はだれでも、わたしを受け入れるのです。そして、わたしを心から受け入れることは、わたしをお遣わしになった父を受け入れることなのです。」
新しい戒め
21 ここでイエスは、込み上げる霊の悲しみを抑え、言われました。「あなたがたに言います。あなたがたのうちの一人が、わたしを裏切ります。」 22 弟子たちは、だれのことを言われたのか見当もつきません。困惑して顔を見合わせるばかりです。 23 イエスに愛された弟子の私(筆者の使徒ヨハネ)は、食卓では先生の隣に座っていました。 24 シモン・ペテロが私に、「そんな恐ろしいことをしでかすのは、いったいだれか聞いてくれ」と合図を送ってきました。 25 そこで私は先生に、「主よ。だれがそんなことを?」と尋ねました。 26 「わたしの手でスープに浸したパンを与える者がそうです。」こう言うと、イエスはパンを浸し、イスカリオテのシモンの子ユダに与えられたのです。 27 ユダがそのパンを口に入れたその時、サタンがユダの心に入り込みました。そこでイエスはユダに、「さあ、急いで、することをしなさい」と言われました。 28 食卓に着いているほかの者はみな、それが何のことやらわかりません。 29 ユダが一行の会計係だったので、祭りに必要なものを買い求めるように言われたか、貧しい人々に施しをするように言われたのだろう、と思った者もいました。 30 ユダはぱっと席を立つと、夜の闇に飛び出して行きました。
31 ユダが姿を消すとすぐ、イエスが言われました。「時が来ました。神の栄光がわたしの回りに輝き渡るのも、時間の問題です。同時にまた、わたしの身に起こるすべてのことのゆえに、神も大いにほめたたえられるでしょう。 32 神はわたしに、ご自分の栄光を与えてくださるのです。それも、すぐにです。 33 心から愛してやまない子どもたちよ。ああ、もう時間がありません。あなたがたを残して行かなければならないのです……。その時には、いくらわたしを捜しても、わたしのところへ来ることはできません。ユダヤ人の指導者たちにも言っておいたとおりです。 34 そこで今、新しい戒めを与えましょう。わたしがあなたがたを愛するように、互いに愛し合いなさい。 35 互いに心から愛し合うなら、わたしの弟子であることをすべての人が認めるのです。」
36 さっそく、シモン・ペテロが尋ねました。「主よ。いったいどこへいらっしゃるのですか?」「あなたは、今はついて来ることはできません。しかし、ずっとあとになってついて来ます。」 37 ペテロは言いました。「でも、どうしてですか。どうして今はだめなのですか。あなたのためなら死ぬ覚悟もできています。」 38 「わたしのために死ぬ、と言うのですか。いや違います。あなたは、明日の朝、鶏が鳴く前に、三度わたしを知らないと言います。」
John 13
King James Version
13 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.
2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;
3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;
4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.
5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.
6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?
7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.
8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.
9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.
10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.
11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.
12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?
13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.
14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.
15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.
16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.
17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.
19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.
20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.
22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.
23 Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.
25 He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?
26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.
27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.
28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.
29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.
30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.
31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.
John 13
New King James Version
Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet
13 Now (A)before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that (B)His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He (C)loved them to the end.
2 And [a]supper being ended, (D)the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Him, 3 Jesus, knowing (E)that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He (F)had come from God and (G)was going to God, 4 (H)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, (I)“Lord, are You washing my feet?”
7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you (J)do not understand now, (K)but you will know after this.”
8 Peter said to Him, “You shall never wash my feet!”
Jesus answered him, (L)“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 (M)you are clean, but not all of you.” 11 For (N)He knew who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.”
12 So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, “Do you [b]know what I have done to you? 13 (O)You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. 14 (P)If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, (Q)you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15 For (R)I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. 16 (S)Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. 17 (T)If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
Jesus Identifies His Betrayer(U)
18 “I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the (V)Scripture may be fulfilled, (W)‘He who eats [c]bread with Me has lifted up his heel against Me.’ 19 (X)Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I am He. 20 (Y)Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”
21 (Z)When Jesus had said these things, (AA)He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, (AB)one of you will betray Me.” 22 Then the disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom He spoke.
23 Now (AC)there was [d]leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved. 24 Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask who it was of whom He spoke.
25 Then, leaning [e]back on Jesus’ breast, he said to Him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesus answered, “It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it.” And having dipped the bread, He gave it to (AD)Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 (AE)Now after the piece of bread, Satan entered him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.” 28 But no one at the table knew for what reason He said this to him. 29 For some thought, because (AF)Judas had the money box, that Jesus had said to him, “Buy those things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.
30 Having received the piece of bread, he then went out immediately. And it was night.
The New Commandment
31 So, when he had gone out, Jesus said, (AG)“Now the Son of Man is glorified, and (AH)God is glorified in Him. 32 If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and (AI)glorify Him immediately. 33 Little children, I shall be with you a (AJ)little while longer. You will seek Me; (AK)and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come,’ so now I say to you. 34 (AL)A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 (AM)By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
36 Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?”
Jesus answered him, “Where I (AN)am going you cannot follow Me now, but (AO)you shall follow Me afterward.”
37 Peter said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will (AP)lay down my life for Your sake.”
38 Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for My sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the rooster shall not (AQ)crow till you have denied Me three times.
