John 13:18-30
New American Standard Bible
18 (A)I am not speaking about all of you. I know the ones whom I have (B)chosen; but this is happening (C)so that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘(D)He who eats My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’ 19 From now on (E)I am telling you before it happens, so that when it does happen, you may believe that (F)I am He. 20 Truly, truly I say to you, (G)the one who [a]receives anyone I send, [b]receives Me; and the one who [c]receives Me [d]receives Him who sent Me.”
Jesus Predicts His Betrayal
21 When Jesus had said these things, He (H)became troubled in spirit, and [e]testified and said, “Truly, truly I say to you that (I)one of you will [f]betray Me.” 22 The disciples began looking at one another, (J)at a loss to know of which one He was speaking. 23 Lying back on (K)Jesus’ chest was one of His disciples, (L)whom Jesus loved. 24 So Simon Peter *nodded to this disciple and *said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom He is speaking.” 25 He then simply (M)leaned back on Jesus’ chest and *said to Him, “Lord, who is it?” 26 Jesus then *answered, “That man is the one for whom I shall dip the piece of bread and give it to him.” So when He had dipped the piece of bread, He *took and *gave it to Judas, (N)the son of Simon Iscariot. 27 After [g]this, (O)Satan then (P)entered him. Therefore Jesus *said to him, “What you are doing, do it quickly.” 28 Now none of those reclining at the table knew for what purpose He had said this to him. 29 For some were assuming, since Judas (Q)kept the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, “Buy the things we need (R)for the feast”; or else, that he was to [h](S)give something to the poor. 30 So after receiving the piece of bread, he left immediately; and (T)it was night.

Lexham English Bible
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.’[a] 19 From now on I am telling you before it happens, in order that when it happens you may believe that I am he.[b] 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[c] 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[d] at one another, uncertain about whom he was speaking. 23 One of his disciples—the one whom Jesus loved—was reclining close beside[e] Jesus. 24 So Simon Peter gestured for this one to inquire who it was about whom he was speaking. 25 He leaned back[f] accordingly against Jesus’ chest and[g] said to him, “Lord, who is it?” 26 Jesus replied, “It is he to whom I dip the piece of bread and give it[h] to him.” Then after[i] dipping the piece of bread, he gave it[j][k] 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[l] for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.) 30 So after he[m] had taken the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.
