Jesus Washes His Disciples’ Feet
13 Now before the feast of Passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, and[a] having loved his[b] own in the world, loved them to the end. 2 And as[c] a dinner was taking place, when[d] the devil had already put into the heart of Judas son of Simon Iscariot that he should betray him, 3 because he[e] knew that the Father had given him all things into his[f] hands, and that he had come forth from God and was going away to God, 4 he got up from the dinner and took off his[g] outer clothing, and taking a towel, tied it[h] around himself. 5 Then he poured water into the washbasin and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe them[i] dry with the towel which he had tied around himself.[j]
6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, are you going to wash my feet?” 7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will understand after these things.” 8 Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet forever!”[k] Jesus replied to him, “Unless I wash you, you do not have a share with me.” 9 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my[l] hands and my[m] head!” 10 Jesus said to him, “The one who has bathed only needs[n] to wash his[o] feet, but is completely clean. And you are clean, but not all of you.” 11 (For he knew the one who would betray him; because of this he said, “Not all of you are clean.”)
12 So when he had washed their feet and taken his outer clothing and reclined at table again, he said to them, “Do you understand what I have done for you? 13 You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and you speak correctly, for I am. 14 If then I—your[p] Lord and Teacher—wash your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15 For I have given you an example, that just as I have done for you, you also do. 16 Truly, truly I say to you, a slave is not greater than his master, nor a messenger greater than the one who sent him. 17 If you understand these things, you are blessed if you do them.
18 “I am not speaking about all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but in order that the scripture would be fulfilled, ‘The one who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.’[q] 19 From now on I am telling you before it happens, in order that when it happens you may believe that I am he.[r] 20 Truly, truly I say to you, the one who receives anyone I send receives me, and the one who receives me receives the one who sent me.”
Jesus Predicts Judas’ Betrayal
21 When he[s] had said these things, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified and said, “Truly, truly I say to you that one of you will betray me.” 22 The disciples began looking[t] at one another, uncertain about whom he was speaking. 23 One of his disciples—the one whom Jesus loved—was reclining close beside[u] Jesus. 24 So Simon Peter gestured for this one to inquire who it was about whom he was speaking. 25 He leaned back[v] accordingly against Jesus’ chest and[w] said to him, “Lord, who is it?” 26 Jesus replied, “It is he to whom I dip the piece of bread and give it[x] to him.” Then after[y] dipping the piece of bread, he gave it[z][aa] to Judas son of Simon Iscariot. 27 And after the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you are doing, do quickly!” 28 (Now no one of those reclining at table knew for what reason he said this to him. 29 For some were thinking because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, “Purchase what we need[ab] for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.) 30 So after he[ac] had taken the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
31 Then, when he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him. 32 If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and will glorify him immediately. 33 Children, yet a little time I am with you. You will seek me and just as I said to the Jews, “Where I am going you cannot come,” now I say also to you.
34 “A new commandment I give to you: that you love one another—just as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples—if you have love for one another.”
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied,[ad] “Where I am going you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.” 37 Peter said to him, “Lord, why am I not able to follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!” 38 Jesus replied, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly I say to you, the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!

Jesús lava los pies a Sus discípulos
13 Antes de la fiesta de la Pascua(A), sabiendo Jesús que Su hora había llegado(B) para pasar de este mundo al Padre(C), habiendo amado a los Suyos que estaban en el mundo, los amó hasta el fin[a].
2 Y durante la cena, como ya el diablo(D) había puesto en el corazón de Judas Iscariote, hijo de Simón, el que lo entregara(E), 3 Jesús, sabiendo que el Padre había puesto[b] todas las cosas en Sus manos(F), y que de Dios había salido(G) y a Dios volvía, 4 se levantó* de la cena y se quitó* el manto, y tomando una toalla, se la ciñó(H). 5 Luego echó* agua en una vasija, y comenzó a lavar los pies(I) de los discípulos y a secárselos con la toalla que tenía ceñida.
6 Cuando llegó* a Simón Pedro, este le dijo*: «Señor, ¿Tú me vas a lavar a mí los pies?». 7 Jesús le respondió: «Ahora tú no comprendes lo que Yo hago, pero lo entenderás después(J)». 8 «¡Jamás me lavarás(K) los pies!», le dijo* Pedro. «Si no te lavo, no tienes parte conmigo(L)», le respondió Jesús. 9 Simón Pedro le dijo*: «Señor, entonces no solo los pies, sino también las manos y la cabeza». 10 Jesús le dijo*: «El que se ha bañado no necesita lavarse, excepto los pies, pues[c]está todo limpio; y ustedes están limpios(M), pero no todos».
11 Porque sabía quién lo iba a entregar(N); por eso dijo: «No todos están limpios».
Jesús, ejemplo supremo de humildad
12 Entonces, cuando acabó de lavarles los pies, tomó Su manto(O), y sentándose[d] a la mesa otra vez, les dijo: «¿Saben lo que les he hecho? 13 Ustedes me llaman Maestro(P)y Señor(Q); y tienen razón[e], porque lo soy. 14 Pues si Yo, el Señor(R)y el Maestro, les lavé los pies, ustedes también deben lavarse los pies unos a otros. 15 Porque les he dado ejemplo(S), para que como Yo les he hecho, también ustedes lo hagan.
16 »En verdad les digo, que un siervo no es mayor que su señor(T) , ni un enviado(U) es mayor que el que lo envió. 17 Si saben esto, serán felices si lo practican(V).
18 No hablo de todos ustedes(W) . Yo conozco a los que he escogido(X) ; pero es para que se cumpla la Escritura(Y) : “El que come Mi pan ha levantado contra Mí su talón(Z) ”. 19 Se lo digo desde ahora, antes de que pase, para que cuando suceda, crean(AA)que Yo soy[f](AB). 20 En verdad les digo, que el que recibe al que Yo envíe, me recibe a Mí; y el que me recibe a Mí, recibe a Aquel que me envió(AC)».
Jesús identifica al traidor
21 Habiendo dicho Jesús esto, se angustió en espíritu(AD), y testificó y dijo: «En verdad les digo que uno de ustedes me entregará(AE)». 22 Los discípulos se miraban unos a otros, y estaban perplejos sin saber de quién hablaba(AF).
23 Uno de Sus discípulos, el que Jesús amaba(AG), estaba a la mesa reclinado en el pecho de Jesús(AH). 24 Por eso Simón Pedro le hizo* señas, y le dijo*: «Dinos de quién habla». 25 Entonces él, recostándose de nuevo[g] sobre el pecho de Jesús, le dijo*: «Señor, ¿quién es(AI)?».
26 Entonces Jesús respondió*: «Es aquel a quien Yo le dé el pedazo de pan que voy a mojar». Y después de mojar el pedazo de pan, lo tomó* y se lo dio* a Judas, hijo de Simón Iscariote(AJ). 27 Y después de comer el pan, Satanás(AK) entró en él(AL). Entonces Jesús le dijo*: «Lo que vas a hacer, hazlo pronto».
28 Pero ninguno de los que estaban sentados[h] a la mesa entendió por qué le dijo esto. 29 Porque algunos pensaban que como Judas tenía la bolsa del dinero(AM), Jesús le decía: «Compra lo que necesitamos para la fiesta(AN)», o que diera algo a los pobres(AO). 30 Y Judas[i], después de recibir el bocado, salió inmediatamente; y ya era de noche(AP).
Un mandamiento nuevo
31 Entonces, cuando salió, Jesús dijo*: «Ahora es[j]glorificado(AQ)el Hijo del Hombre(AR), y Dios es glorificado en Él(AS). 32 Si Dios es glorificado en Él[k], Dios también lo glorificará en Él mismo(AT), y lo glorificará enseguida. 33 Hijitos(AU), estaré con ustedes un poco más de tiempo(AV). Me buscarán, y como dije a los judíos, ahora también les digo a ustedes: “adonde Yo voy, ustedes no pueden ir(AW)”.
34 »Un mandamiento nuevo les doy(AX) : “que se amen los unos a los otros(AY) ”; que como Yo los he amado(AZ) , así también se amen los unos a los otros. 35 En esto conocerán todos que son Mis discípulos, si se tienen amor los unos a los otros(BA)».
Jesús predice la negación de Pedro
36 «Señor, ¿adónde vas?», le preguntó* Simón Pedro. Jesús respondió: «Adonde Yo voy, tú no me puedes seguir(BB)ahora, pero me seguirás después(BC)». 37 Pedro le dijo*: «Señor, ¿por qué no te puedo seguir ahora mismo? ¡(BD)Yo daré mi vida por Ti!». 38 Jesús le respondió*: «¿Tu vida darás por Mí? En verdad te digo, que no cantará el gallo sin que antes me hayas negado tres veces(BE).
