John 13:12-38 ▼

12 When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His outer garments, He reclined with them again and asked, “Do you⁺ know what I have done for you⁺?

13 You⁺ call Me Teacher {Didaskalos} and Lord {Kyrios}, and rightly so, because I am.

14 So if I, your Lord {Kyrios} and Teacher {Didaskalos}, have washed your⁺ feet, you⁺ also should wash one another’s feet.

15 I have set you⁺ an example so that you⁺ should do as I have done for you⁺.

16 Truly, truly, I tell you⁺, no servant {doulos} is greater than his master , nor is a messenger (apostle) greater than the one who sent him.

17 If you⁺ know these things, you⁺ will be blessed if you⁺ do them.

18 I am not speaking about all of you⁺; I know whom I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the Scripture: ‘The one who shares My bread has lifted up his heel against Me .’

19 I am telling you⁺ now before it happens, so that when it comes to pass, you⁺ will believe that I am He.

20 Truly, truly, I tell you⁺, whoever receives the one I send receives Me, and whoever receives Me receives the One who sent Me.

21 After Jesus (YHWH saves) had said this, He became troubled in spirit {pneumati} and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you⁺, one of you⁺ will betray Me.

22 The disciples (pupils) looked at one another, perplexed as to which of them He meant.

23 One of His disciples (pupils), the one whom Jesus (YHWH saves) loved {ēgapa}, was reclining at His side \was reclining in the bosom of Jesus/.

24 So Simon (hearing) Peter (rock) motioned to him to ask Jesus which one He was talking about.

25 Leaning back against Jesus (YHWH saves), he asked, “Lord {Kyrie}, who is it?

26 Jesus (YHWH saves) answered, “It is the one to whom I give this morsel after I have dipped it. Then He dipped the morsel and gave it to Judas (praise) son of Simon (hearing) Iscariot.

27 And when Judas had taken the morsel, Satan (the adversary) entered into him. Then Jesus (YHWH saves) said to Judas, “What you are about to do, do quickly.

28 But no one at the table knew why Jesus had said this to him.

29 Since Judas (praise) kept the money bag, some thought that Jesus (YHWH saves) was telling him to buy what was needed for the feast, or to give something to the poor.

30 As soon as he had received the morsel, Judas went out into the night.

31 When Judas had gone out, Jesus (YHWH saves) said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God {Theos} is glorified in Him.

32 If God {Theos} is glorified in Him, God will also glorify the Son in Himself—and will glorify Him at once.

33 Little children, I am with you⁺ only a little while longer. You⁺ will look for Me, and as I said to the Jews (people of praise), so now I say to you⁺: ‘Where I am going, you⁺ cannot come.

34 A new commandment I give you⁺: Love {agapate} one another. As I have loved {ēgapēsa} you⁺, so you⁺ also must love one another.

35 By this everyone will know that you⁺ are My disciples (pupils), if you⁺ love {agapēn} one another.

36 “Lord {Kyrie}, where are You going? Simon (hearing) Peter (rock) asked. Jesus (YHWH saves) answered, “Where I am going, you cannot follow (accompany) Me now, but you will follow later.

37 “Lord {Kyrie}, said Peter (rock), “why can’t I follow (accompany) You now? I will lay down my life {psychēn} for You.

38 “Will you lay down your life {psychēn} for Me? Jesus (YHWH saves) replied. “Truly, truly, I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.
