    3Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was going back to God,

    4got up from the meal, laid aside His outer clothing, and took a towel, tying it around Himself.

    5Then He poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to dry them with the towel He had tied around Himself.

    6He came to Simon Peter, who said to Him, 'Lord, are You going to wash my feet?'

    7Jesus answered him, 'What I am doing you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.'

    8Peter said to Him, 'You will never wash my feet!' Jesus answered, 'If I do not wash you, you have no share with Me.'

    9Simon Peter said to Him, 'Lord, not only my feet but also my hands and my head!'

    10Jesus said to him, 'Whoever has bathed needs only to wash their feet, but is otherwise completely clean. And you are clean, though not all of you.'

    11For He knew who was going to betray Him, and that is why He said, 'Not all of you are clean.'

    12When He had washed their feet, put on His outer clothing, and reclined again, He said to them, 'Do you understand what I have done for you?'

    13'You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you are right, because I am.'

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

    12This is my commandment: Love one another as I have loved you.

    13Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.

    14You are my friends if you do what I command.

    15I no longer call you servants because a servant does not know what his master is doing. Instead, I have called you friends because everything I heard from my Father I have made known to you.

    16You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he will give you.

    17This is my command: Love one another.
