John 13:5-15

Living_Oracles(i) 5 Then he poured water into a basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples, and to wipe them with the towel with which he was girded. 6 When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, Master, would you wash my feet? 7 Jesus answered, At present you do not comprehend what I am doing; but you shall know hereafter. 8 Peter replied, You shall never wash my feet. Jesus answered, Unless I wash you, you can have no part with me. 9 Simon Peter said to him, Master, not my feet only; but also my hands and my head. 10 Jesus replied, He who has been bathing, needs only to wash his feet; the rest of his body being clean. 11 You are clean, but not all. For he knew who would betray him; therefore he said, You are not all clean. 12 After he had washed their feet, he put on his mantle, and replacing himself at table, said to them, Do you understand what I have been doing to you? 13 You call me the Teacher and the Master; and you say right; for so I am. 14 If I, then, the Master and the Teacher, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet. 15 For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.
