4 So he got up from the table, removed his outer clothes, took a towel, and tied it around his waist. 5 Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and dry them with the towel that he had tied around his waist. 6 When Jesus came to Simon Peter, Peter asked him, |Lord, are you going to wash my feet?| 7 Jesus answered Peter, |You don't know now what I'm doing. You will understand later.| 8 Peter told Jesus, |You will never wash my feet.| Jesus replied to Peter, |If I don't wash you, you don't belong to me.| 9 Simon Peter said to Jesus, |Lord, don't wash only my feet. Wash my hands and my head too!| 10 Jesus told Peter, |People who have washed are completely clean. They need to have only their feet washed. All of you, except for one, are clean.| John 13:4-10, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
