John 13

13Before the Passover Festival, Jesus knew that His hour had come to depart from this world to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.G1161G4253G1859G3957G2424G1492G3754G846G5610G2064G2443G3327G1537G5127G2889G4314G3962G25G2398G3588G1722G2889G25G846G1519G50562Now by the time of supper, the Devil had already put it into the heart of Judas, Simon Iscariot's son, to betray Him.G2532G1173G1096G1228G2235G906G1519G2588G2455G2469G4613G2443G3860G8463Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into His hands, that He had come from God, and that He was going back to God.G2424G1492G3754G3962G1325G3956G1519G846G5495G2532G3754G1831G575G2316G2532G5217G4314G23164So He got up from supper, laid aside His robe, took a towel, and tied it around Himself.G1453G1537G1173G2532G5087G2440G2532G2983G3012G1241G14385Next, He poured water into a basin and began to wash His disciples' feet and to dry them with the towel tied around Him.G1534G906G5204G1519G3537G2532G756G3538G3101G4228G2532G1591G3012G3739G2258G12416He came to Simon Peter, who asked Him, "Lord, are You going to wash my feet?"G3767G2064G4314G4613G4074G2532G1565G3004G846G2962G3538G4771G3538G3450G42287Jesus answered him, "What I'm doing you don't understand now, but afterwards you will know."G2424G611G2532G2036G846G3739G1473G4160G4771G1492G3756G737G1161G1097G3326G50238"You will never wash my feet— ever!" Peter said. Jesus replied, "If I don't wash you, you have no part with Me."G4074G3004G846G3538G1519G165G3364G3538G3450G4228G2424G611G846G3362G3538G4571G3362G2192G3756G3313G3326G17009Simon Peter said to Him, "Lord, not only my feet, but also my hands and my head."G4613G4074G3004G846G2962G3361G3450G4228G3440G235G2532G5495G2532G277610"One who has bathed," Jesus told him, "doesn't need to wash anything except his feet, but he is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you."G2424G3004G846G3068G5532G3756G2192G2228G3538G4228G235G2076G2513G3650G2532G5210G2075G2513G235G3780G395611For He knew who would betray Him. This is why He said, "You are not all clean."G1063G1492G3588G3860G846G5124G1223G2036G2075G3780G3956G251312When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His robe, He reclined again and said to them, "Do you know what I have done for you?G3767G3753G3538G846G4228G2532G2983G846G2440G377G3825G2036G846G1097G5101G4160G521313You call Me Teacher and Lord. This is well said, for I am.G5210G5455G3165G1320G2532G2962G2532G3004G2573G1063G151014So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.G1487G1473G3767G2962G2532G1320G3538G5216G4228G5210G2532G3784G3538G240G422815For I have given you an example that you also should do just as I have done for you.G1063G1325G5213G5262G2443G5210G4160G2531G2532G1473G4160G521316"I assure you: A slave is not greater than his master, and a messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.G281G281G3004G5213G1401G2076G3756G3187G846G2962G3761G652G3187G3992G84617If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.G1487G1492G5023G3107G2075G1437G4160G84618I'm not speaking about all of you; I know those I have chosen. But the Scripture must be fulfilled: The one who eats My bread has raised his heel against Me.G3004G3756G4012G5216G3956G1473G1492G3739G1586G235G2443G1124G4137G5176G740G3326G1700G1869G846G4418G1909G169119"I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am [He].G575G737G3004G5213G4253G1096G2443G3752G1096G4100G3754G1473G151020I assure you: The one who receives whomever I send receives Me, and the one who receives Me receives Him who sent Me."G281G281G3004G5213G2983G1437G5100G3992G2983G1691G1161G2983G1691G2983G3992G316521When Jesus had said this, He was troubled in His spirit and testified, "I assure you: One of you will betray Me!"G2424G2036G5023G2036G5015G4151G2532G3140G2532G2036G281G281G3004G5213G3754G1520G1537G5216G3860G316522The disciples started looking at one another— uncertain which one He was speaking about.G3767G3101G991G1519G240G639G4012G5101G300423One of His disciples, the one Jesus loved, was reclining close beside Jesus.G1161G2258G345G1722G2424G2859G1520G846G3101G3739G2424G2524Simon Peter motioned to him to find out who it was He was talking about.G4613G4074G3767G3506G5129G4441G5101G302G1498G4012G3739G300425So he leaned back against Jesus and asked Him, "Lord, who is it?"G1565G1161G1968G1909G2424G4738G3004G846G2962G5101G207626Jesus replied, "He's the one I give the piece of bread to after I have dipped it." When He had dipped the bread, He gave it to Judas, Simon Iscariot's son.G2424G611G1565G2076G3739G1929G5596G1473G911G2532G1686G5596G1325G2455G2469G461327After [Judas ate] the piece of bread, Satan entered him. Therefore Jesus told him, "What you're doing, do quickly."G2532G3326G5596G5119G4567G1525G1519G1565G3767G3004G2424G846G3739G4160G4160G503228None of those reclining at the table knew why He told him this.G1161G3762G345G1097G4314G5101G2036G5124G84629Since Judas kept the money-bag, some thought that Jesus was telling him, "Buy what we need for the festival," or that he should give something to the poor.G1063G5100G1380G1893G2455G2192G1101G3754G2424G3004G846G59G3739G2192G5532G1519G1859G2228G2443G1325G5100G443430After receiving the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.G1565G3767G2983G5596G1831G2112G1831G1161G2258G357131When he had gone out, Jesus said, "Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in Him.G3767G3753G1831G2424G3004G3568G1392G5207G444G1392G2532G2316G1392G1722G84632If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself and will glorify Him at once.G1487G2316G1392G1722G846G2316G1392G2532G1392G846G1722G1438G2532G1392G2117G1392G84633"Children, I am with you a little while longer. You will look for Me, and just as I told the Jews, 'Where I am going you cannot come,' so now I tell you.G5040G2089G3397G1510G3326G5216G2212G3165G2532G2531G2036G2453G3754G3699G1473G5217G5210G3756G1410G2064G2532G737G3004G521334"I give you a new commandment: love one another. Just as I have loved you, you must also love one another.G2537G1785G1325G5213G2443G25G240G2531G25G5209G2443G5210G2532G25G24035By this all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."G1722G5129G1097G3956G1097G3754G2075G1699G3101G1437G2192G26G1722G24036"Lord," Simon Peter said to Him, "where are You going?" Jesus answered, "Where I am going you cannot follow Me now, but you will follow later."G4613G4074G3004G846G2962G4226G5217G2424G611G846G3699G5217G1410G3756G190G3427G3568G1161G190G3427G530537"Lord," Peter asked, "why can't I follow You now? I will lay down my life for You!"G4074G3004G846G2962G1302G3756G1410G190G4671G737G5087G3450G5590G5228G467538Jesus replied, "Will you lay down your life for Me? I assure you: A rooster will not crow until you have denied Me three times.G2424G611G846G5087G4675G5590G5228G1700G281G281G3004G4671G220G5455G3364G5455G2193G3739G533G3165G5151

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
