John 13:16-22
New Living Translation
16 I tell you the truth, slaves are not greater than their master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends the message. 17 Now that you know these things, God will bless you for doing them.
Jesus Predicts His Betrayal
18 “I am not saying these things to all of you; I know the ones I have chosen. But this fulfills the Scripture that says, ‘The one who eats my food has turned against me.’[a] 19 I tell you this beforehand, so that when it happens you will believe that I am the Messiah.[b] 20 I tell you the truth, anyone who welcomes my messenger is welcoming me, and anyone who welcomes me is welcoming the Father who sent me.”
21 Now Jesus was deeply troubled,[c] and he exclaimed, “I tell you the truth, one of you will betray me!”
22 The disciples looked at each other, wondering whom he could mean.

Jesus Predicts His Betrayal
18 “I am not referring to all of you;(C) I know those I have chosen.(D) But this is to fulfill this passage of Scripture:(E) ‘He who shared my bread(F) has turned[a](G) against me.’[b](H)
19 “I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe(I) that I am who I am.(J) 20 Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.”(K)
21 After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit(L) and testified, “Very truly I tell you, one of you is going to betray me.”(M)
22 His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant.
