13:12 So when Jesus 1 had washed their feet and put his outer clothing back on, he took his place at the table 2 again and said to them, “Do you understand 3 what I have done for you? 13:13 You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and do so correctly, 4 for that is what I am. 5 13:14 If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you too ought to wash one another’s feet. 13:15 For I have given you an example 6 – you should do just as I have done for you. 13:16 I tell you the solemn truth, 7 the slave 8 is not greater than his master, nor is the one who is sent as a messenger 9 greater than the one who sent him. 13:17 If you understand 10 these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
13:18 “What I am saying does not refer to all of you. I know the ones I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the scripture, 11 ‘The one who eats my bread 12 has turned against me.’ 13 13:19 I am telling you this now, 14 before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe 15 that I am he. 16 13:20 I tell you the solemn truth, 17 whoever accepts 18 the one I send accepts me, and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.” 19
