and poured water into a wash-basin, and began to wash the feet of his disciples: and he wiped them with the linen cloth with which he had girded his loins.

Jesus said to him: He that hath bathed, needeth not but to wash his feet; for he is all clean. And ye also are clean; but not all of you.

And when he had washed their feet, he resumed his long garments, and reclined. And he said to them: Understand ye what I have done to you?

Verily, verily, I say to you, That no servant is greater than his lord; and no legate is greater than he who sent him.

Not of you all, do I speak: I know whom I have chosen. But that the scripture may be fulfilled, He that eateth bread with me, hath lifted his heel against me.

These things said Jesus, and he was agitated in his spirit; and he testified, and said: Verily, verily, I say to you, That one of you will betray me.

And there was one of his disciples, who was reclining on his bosom, he whom Jesus loved;

And what ye shall ask in my name, I will do for you; that the Father may be glorified in his Son.

If ye shall keep my commands, ye will abide in the love of me, as I have kept the commands of my Father, and abide in his love.

There is no greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

I no longer call you servants; because a servant knoweth not what his lord doeth; but I have called you my friends; because, whatever I have heard from my Father, I have made known to you.

Remember the word that I spoke to you, That there is no servant, who is greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; and if they have observed my teaching, they will also observe yours.

But when the Spirit of truth shall come, he will lead you into all the truth. For he will not speak from his own mind; but whatever he heareth, that will he speak: and he will make known to you things to come.

And his disciples said one to another: What is this that he saith to us, A little while, and ye will not see me and again a little while, and ye will see me, because I go to my Father?

His disciples say to him: Lo, now thou speakest plainly, and thou utterest no allegory.

Behold, the hour cometh, and hath now come, when ye will be dispersed, each to his place; and ye will leave me alone. But I am not alone, for the Father is with me.

These things spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said: My Father, the hour is come: glorify thy Son, that thy Son may glorify thee.

These things spake Jesus, and went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples entered.

And Judas also, the betrayer, knew the place; because Jesus often there met with his disciples.

And Simon Cephas had upon him a sword; and he drew it, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear. And the servant's name was Malchus.
