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]. 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), 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, se levantó* de la cena y se quitó* su manto, y tomando una toalla, se la ciñó(H). 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. Entonces llegó* a Simón Pedro. Este le dijo*: Señor, ¿tú lavarme a mí los pies? Jesús respondió, y le dijo: Ahora tú no comprendes lo que yo hago, pero lo entenderás después(J). Pedro le contestó*: ¡Jamás me lavarás(K) los pies! Jesús le respondió: Si no te lavo, no tienes parte conmigo(L). 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 vosotros estáis limpios(M), pero no todos. 11 Porque sabía quién le iba a entregar(N); por eso dijo: No todos estáis 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: ¿Sabéis lo que os he hecho? 13 Vosotros me llamáis Maestro(P) y Señor(Q); y tenéis razón[e], porque lo soy. 14 Pues si yo, el Señor(R) y el Maestro, os lavé los pies, vosotros también debéis lavaros los pies unos a otros. 15 Porque os he dado ejemplo(S), para que como yo os he hecho, vosotros también hagáis. 16 En verdad, en verdad os digo: un siervo no es mayor que su señor(T), ni un enviado(U) es mayor que el que lo envió. 17 Si sabéis esto, seréis felices si lo practicáis(V). 18 No hablo de todos vosotros(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 calcañar(Z)». 19 Os lo digo desde ahora, antes de que pase, para que cuando suceda, creáis(AA) que yo soy[f](AB). 20 En verdad, en verdad os digo: el que recibe al que yo envíe, me recibe a mí; y el que me recibe a mí, recibe al que me envió(AC).

Jesús identifica al traidor

21 Habiendo dicho Jesús esto, se angustió en espíritu(AD), y testificó y dijo: En verdad, en verdad os digo que uno de vosotros 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 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 daré el bocado que voy a mojar. Y después de mojar el bocado, lo tomó* y se lo dio* a Judas, hijo de Simón Iscariote(AJ). 27 Y después del bocado, 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 le glorificará en sí mismo(AT), y le glorificará enseguida. 33 Hijitos(AU), estaré con vosotros un poco más de tiempo(AV). Me buscaréis, y como dije a los judíos, ahora también os digo a vosotros: adonde yo voy, vosotros no podéis ir(AW). 34 Un mandamiento nuevo os doy(AX): que os améis los unos a los otros(AY); que como yo os he amado(AZ), así también os améis los unos a los otros. 35 En esto conocerán todos que sois mis discípulos, si os tenéis amor los unos a los otros(BA).

Jesús predice la negación de Pedro

36 Simón Pedro le dijo*: Señor, ¿adónde vas? 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, en verdad te digo: no cantará el gallo sin que antes me hayas negado tres veces(BE).

13 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;

Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;

He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.

After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.

Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.

14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.

15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.

17 If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.

18 I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen: but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me hath lifted up his heel against me.

19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.

20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receiveth whomsoever I send receiveth me; and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.

21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spake.

23 Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved.

24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, that he should ask who it should be of whom he spake.

25 He then lying on Jesus' breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

26 Jesus answered, He it is, to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then said Jesus unto him, That thou doest, do quickly.

28 Now no man at the table knew for what intent he spake this unto him.

29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

30 He then having received the sop went immediately out: and it was night.

31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.

32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.

33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.

34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.

37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.

38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

13 ¶ Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them unto the end.

And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,

Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands and that he had come from God and was going to God,

arose from the supper and laid aside his garments and took a towel and girded himself.

After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded.

Then he came to Simon Peter, and Peter said unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou dost not understand now, but thou shalt understand afterwards.

Peter said unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou shalt have no part with me.

Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

10 Jesus said to him, He that is washed needs only to wash his feet because he is completely clean, and ye are clean, but not all.

11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore, said he, Ye are not all clean.

12 So after he had washed their feet and had taken his garments and had sat down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?

13 Ye call me Master and Lord; and ye say well, for so I am.

14 If I then, the Lord and the Master, have washed your feet, ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.

15 For I have given you an example that ye should do as I have done to you.

16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The slave is not greater than his lord; neither is the apostle greater than he that sent him.

17 If ye know these things, ye shall be blessed if ye do them.

18 ¶ I speak not of you all; I know whom I have chosen; but that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me,

19 now I tell you before it is done, so that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I AM.

20 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that receives whomsoever I send receives me, and he that receives me receives him that sent me.

21 When Jesus had thus said, he was troubled in spirit and testified and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 Then the disciples looked one on another, doubting of whom he spoke.

23 And one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was seated at the table beside Jesus.

24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to this one that he should ask him who it was of whom he spoke.

25 He then, reclining on Jesus’ breast, said unto him, Lord, who is it?

26 Jesus answered, He it is to whom I shall give a sop when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

27 And after the sop Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said unto him, That which thou shalt do, do it more quickly.

28 Now no one at the table understood for what purpose he spoke this unto him.

29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we need for the feast, or that he should give something to the poor.

30 He then having received the sop went immediately out, and it was now night.

31 ¶ Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man clarified, and God is clarified in him.

32 If God is clarified in him, God shall also clarify him in himself and shall straightway clarify him.

33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me; and as I said unto the Jews, Where I go, ye cannot come, so now I say to you.

34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.

35 By this shall everyone know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

36 ¶ Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, where goest thou? Jesus answered him, Where I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.

37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my soul for thy sake.

38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy soul for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow until thou hast denied me three times.

13 Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him, Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God, arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel and wrapped a towel around his waist. Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”

Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”

Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!”

Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.”

Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”

10 Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.” 11 For he knew him who would betray him; therefore he said, “You are not all clean.” 12 So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you? 13 You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am. 14 If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15 For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you. 16 Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither is one who is sent greater than he who sent him. 17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 18 I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’(A) 19 From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he. 20 Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”

21 When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”

22 The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke. 23 One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ chest. 24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”

25 He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ chest, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”

26 Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. 27 After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him.

Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”

28 Now nobody at the table knew why he said this to him. 29 For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor. 30 Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.

31 When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. 32 If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately. 33 Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you. 34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, 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 answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.”

37 Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”

38 Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.
