John 13:18–30

18 “I am not speaking about all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but in order that the scripture would be fulfilled, ‘The one who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.’d 19 From now on I am telling you before it happens, in order that when it happens you may believe that I am he.* 20 Truly, truly I say to you, the one who receives anyone I send receives me, and the one who receives me receives the one who sent me.”

Jesus Predicts Judas’ Betrayal

21 When he* had said these things, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified and said, “Truly, truly I say to you that one of you will betray me.” 22 The disciples began looking* at one another, uncertain about whom he was speaking. 23 One of his disciples—the one whom Jesus loved—was reclining ⌊close beside⌋e Jesus. 24 So Simon Peter gestured for this one to inquire who it was about whom he was speaking. 25 He leaned backf accordingly against Jesus’ chest and* said to him, “Lord, who is it?” 26 Jesus replied, “It is he to whom I dip the piece of bread and give it* to him.” Then after* dipping the piece of bread, he gave it*g to Judas son of Simon Iscariot. 27 And after the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you are doing, do quickly!” 28 (Now no one of those reclining at table knew for what reason he said this to him. 29 For some were thinking because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him, “Purchase ⌊what we need⌋h for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.) 30 So after he* had taken the piece of bread, he went out immediately. And it was night.
