John 13:12–20

¹²When, therefore, he washed their feet, and took his garments, having reclined (at meat) again, he said to them, ‘Do ye know what I have done to you? ¹³ye call me, The Teacher and The Lord, and ye say well, for I am; ¹⁴if then I did wash your feet—the Lord and the Teacher—ye also ought to wash one another’s feet.

¹⁵‘For an example I gave to you, that, according as I did to you, ye also may do; ¹⁶verily, verily, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his lord, nor an apostle greater than he who sent him; ¹⁷if these things ye have known, happy are ye, if ye may do them.

¹⁸Not concerning you all do I speak; I have known whom I chose for myself; but that the Writing may be fulfilled: He who is eating the bread with me, did lift up against me his heel. ¹⁹‘From this time I tell you, before its coming to pass, that, when it may come to pass, ye may believe that I am he; ²⁰verily, verily, I say to you, he who is receiving whomsoever I may send, doth receive me; and he who is receiving me, doth receive Him who sent me.’
