    3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came forth from God, and was going to God,

    4 arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around his waist.

    5 Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

    6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, "Lord, do you wash my feet?"

    7 Jesus answered him, "You don't know what I am doing now, but you will understand later."

    8 Peter said to him, "You will never wash my feet!" Jesus answered him, "If I don't 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, "Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you."

    11 For he knew him who would betray him, therefore he said, "You are not all clean."

    12 So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

    13 You call me, 'Teacher' and 'Lord.' You say so correctly, for so I am.

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

    12 "This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.

    13 Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.

    14 You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.

    15 No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn't know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.

    16 You didn't choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

    17 "I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
