John 13:12-17

12So when Jesus had washed their feet and put his outer clothing back on, he took his place at the table again and said to them, “Do you understand what I have done for you?

13You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and do so correctly, for that is what I am.

14If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you too ought to wash one another’s feet.

15For I have given you an example – you should do just as I have done for you.

16I tell you the solemn truth, the slave is not greater than his master, nor is the one who is sent as a messenger greater than the one who sent him.

17If you understand these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
