John 13:12-20

12When Jesus had washed their feet and put on his outer clothing, he reclined again and said to them, “Do you know what I have done for you?

13You call me Teacher and Lord — and you are speaking rightly, since that is what I am.

14So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.

15For I have given you an example, that you also should do just as I have done for you.

16“Truly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his master, and a messenger is not greater than the one who sent him.

17If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.

18“I’m not speaking about all of you; I know those I have chosen. But the Scripture must be fulfilled: The one who eats my bread has raised his heel against me.

19I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am he.

20Truly I tell you, whoever receives anyone I send receives me, and the one who receives me receives him who sent me.”
