The Lord’s Supper

13 Now before the Feast of ^(A)the Passover, Jesus knowing that ^(B)His hour had come that He would depart out of this world ^(C)to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them ^[a]to the end. ² And during supper, ^(D)the devil having already put into the heart of ^(E)Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him, ³ Jesus, ^(F)knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that ^(G)He had come forth from God and was going back to God, ⁴ *got up from supper, and *laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He ^(H)tied it around Himself.

Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet

⁵ Then He *poured water into the washbasin, and began to ^(I)wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel which He had tied around Himself. ⁶ So 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 realize now, but you will understand ^(J)afterwards.” ⁸ Peter *said to Him, “You will never wash my feet—ever!” Jesus answered him, “^(K)If I do not wash you, ^(L)you have no part with Me.” ⁹ Simon Peter *said to Him, “Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head.” ¹⁰ Jesus *said to him, “He who has 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 the one who was betraying Him; for this reason He said, “Not all of you are clean.”
