John 13:21–38
21 Whenn Jesus had said this, he was troubled in his spirito and testified,p “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.”
22 The disciples started looking at one another—uncertain which one he was speaking about. 23 One of his disciples, the one Jesus loved,q was reclining close beside Jesus.* 24 Simon Peter motioned to him to find out who it was he was talking about. 25 So he leaned back against Jesus and asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesus replied, “He’s the one I give the piece of bread to after I have dipped it.”r When he had dipped the bread,s he gave it to Judas, Simon Iscariot’s son.E 27 After Judas ate the piece of bread, Satant entered him. So Jesus told him, “What you’re doing, do quickly.”
28 None of those reclining at the table knew why he said this to him. 29 Since Judasu kept the money-bag, some thought that Jesus was telling him, “Buy what we need for the festival,”v or that he should give something to the poor. 30 After receiving the piece of bread, he immediately left. And it was night.w
31 Whenx he had left, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Many is glorified, and God is glorifiedz in him.aa 32 If God is glorified in him,F God will also glorify him in himself and will glorify him at once. 33 Little children, I am with you a little while longer.ab You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so now I tell you, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come.’ac
34 “I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you lovead one another.”
36 “Lord,” Simon Peter said to him, “where are you going?”
Jesus answered, “Where I am goingae you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.”
37 “Lord,” Peter asked, “why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my lifeaf for you.”ag
38 Jesus replied, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly I tell you, a rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times.
