Jesus Washes the Disciples’ Feet
13 Now (A)before the Feast of the Passover, when Jesus knew that (B)His hour had come that He should depart from this world to the Father, having loved His own who were in the world, He (C)loved them to the end.
2 And [a]supper being ended, (D)the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray Him, 3 Jesus, knowing (E)that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He (F)had come from God and (G)was going to God, 4 (H)rose from supper and laid aside His garments, took a towel and girded Himself. 5 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. 6 Then He came to Simon Peter. And Peter said to Him, (I)“Lord, are You washing my feet?”
7 Jesus answered and said to him, “What I am doing you (J)do not understand now, (K)but you will know after this.”
8 Peter said to Him, “You shall never wash my feet!”
Jesus answered him, (L)“If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me.”
9 Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
10 Jesus said to him, “He who is 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 who would betray Him; therefore He said, “You are not all clean.”
12 So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, “Do you [b]know what I have done to you? 13 (O)You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. 14 (P)If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, (Q)you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15 For (R)I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you. 16 (S)Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. 17 (T)If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.

17 (A)In the evening He came with the twelve. 18 Now as they sat and ate, Jesus said, “Assuredly, I say to you, (B)one of you who eats with Me will betray Me.”
19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say to Him one by one, “Is it I?” [a]And another said, “Is it I?”
20 He answered and said to them, “It is one of the twelve, who dips with Me in the dish. 21 (C)The Son of Man indeed goes just as it is written of Him, but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had never been born.”

23 Then He took the cup, and when He had given thanks He gave it to them, and they all drank from it. 24 And He said to them, “This is My blood of the [c]new covenant, which is shed for many. 25 Assuredly, I say to you, I will no longer drink of the fruit of the vine until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.”
26 (G)And when they had sung [d]a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

22 And they were exceedingly sorrowful, and each of them began to say to Him, “Lord, is it I?”
23 He answered and said, (C)“He who dipped his hand with Me in the dish will betray Me. 24 The Son of Man indeed goes just (D)as it is written of Him, but (E)woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! (F)It would have been good for that man if he had not been born.”

Jesus Institutes the Lord’s Supper
14 (A)When the hour had come, He sat down, and the [a]twelve apostles with Him. 15 Then He said to them, “With fervent desire I have desired to eat this Passover with you before I suffer; 16 for I say to you, I will no longer eat of it (B)until it is fulfilled in the kingdom of God.”
17 Then He took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, “Take this and divide it among yourselves; 18 for (C)I say to you, [b]I will not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes.”
19 (D)And He took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My (E)body which is given for you; (F)do this in remembrance of Me.”
20 Likewise He also took the cup after supper, saying, (G)“This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is shed for you. 21 (H)But behold, the hand of My betrayer is with Me on the table. 22 (I)And truly the Son of Man goes (J)as it has been determined, but woe to that man by whom He is betrayed!”
23 (K)Then they began to question among themselves, which of them it was who would do this thing.
The Disciples Argue About Greatness
24 (L)Now there was also a dispute among them, as to which of them should be considered the greatest. 25 (M)And He said to them, “The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them, and those who exercise authority over them are called ‘benefactors.’ 26 (N)But not so among you; on the contrary, (O)he who is greatest among you, let him be as the younger, and he who governs as he who serves. 27 (P)For who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves? Is it not he who sits at the table? Yet (Q)I am among you as the One who serves.
28 “But you are those who have continued with Me in (R)My trials. 29 And (S)I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me, 30 that (T)you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, (U)and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

Jesus Identifies His Betrayer(A)
18 “I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the (B)Scripture may be fulfilled, (C)‘He who eats [a]bread with Me has lifted up his heel against Me.’ 19 (D)Now I tell you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe that I am He. 20 (E)Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me.”
21 (F)When Jesus had said these things, (G)He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, “Most assuredly, I say to you, (H)one of you will betray Me.” 22 Then the disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom He spoke.
23 Now (I)there was [b]leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved. 24 Simon Peter therefore motioned to him to ask who it was of whom He spoke.
25 Then, leaning [c]back on Jesus’ breast, he said to Him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesus answered, “It is he to whom I shall give a piece of bread when I have dipped it.” And having dipped the bread, He gave it to (J)Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 (K)Now after the piece of bread, Satan entered him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.” 28 But no one at the table knew for what reason He said this to him. 29 For some thought, because (L)Judas had the money box, that Jesus had said to him, “Buy those things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.
30 Having received the piece of bread, he then went out immediately. And it was night.
