John 13:12-17

Living Bible

¹² After washing their feet he put on his robe again and sat down and asked, “Do you understand what I was doing? ¹³ You call me ‘Master’ and ‘Lord,’ and you do well to say it, for it is true. ¹⁴ And since I, the Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you ought to wash each other’s feet. ¹⁵ I have given you an example to follow: do as I have done to you. ¹⁶ How true it is that a servant is not greater than his master. Nor is the messenger more important than the one who sends him. ¹⁷ You know these things—now do them! That is the path of blessing.
