Scriptures

New American Standard Bible (NASB)

John 13
⁴ *got up from supper, and *laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself.
⁵ Then He *poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel with which He was girded.
⁶ So He *came to Simon Peter. He *said to Him, "Lord, do You wash my feet?"
⁷ Jesus answered and said to him, "What I do you do not realize now, but you will understand hereafter."
⁸ Peter *said to Him, "Never shall You wash my feet!" Jesus answered him, "If I do not wash you, you have no part with Me."
⁹ Simon Peter *said to Him, "Lord, then wash not only my feet, but also my hands and my head."
¹⁰ Jesus *said to him, "He who has bathed needs only to wash his feet, but is completely clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."
¹¹ For He knew the one who was betraying Him; for this reason He said, "Not all of you are clean."
¹² So when He had washed their feet, and taken His garments and reclined at the table again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?
¹³ You call Me Teacher and Lord; and you are right, for so I am.
¹⁴ If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
