John 13

1
It was just before the Passover Feast. Jesus knew that the time had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now showed them the full extent of his love.
2
The evening meal was being served, and the devil had already prompted Judas Iscariot, son of Simon, to betray Jesus.
3
Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God;
4
so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist.
5
After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples' feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
6
He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?"
7
Jesus replied, "You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand."
8
"No," said Peter, "you shall never wash my feet." Jesus answered, "Unless I wash you, you have no part with me."
9
"Then, Lord," Simon Peter replied, "not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!"
10
Jesus answered, "A person who has had a bath needs only to wash his feet; his whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you."
11
For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean.
12
When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. "Do you understand what I have done for you?" he asked them.
13
"You call me `Teacher' and `Lord,' and rightly so, for that is what I am.
14
Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet.
15
I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.
16
I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.
17
Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.
18
"I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the scripture: `He who shares my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'
19
"I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am He.
20
I tell you the truth, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me."
21
After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, "I tell you the truth, one of you is going to betray me."
22
His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant.
23
One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him.
24
Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, "Ask him which one he means."
25
Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, "Lord, who is it?"
26
Jesus answered, "It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish." Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, son of Simon.
27
As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. "What you are about to do, do quickly," Jesus told him,
28
but no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him.
29
Since Judas had charge of the money, some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the Feast, or to give something to the poor.
30
As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night.
31
When he was gone, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of Man glorified and God is glorified in him.
32
If God is glorified in him, God will glorify the Son in himself, and will glorify him at once.
33
"My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.
34
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
35
By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
36
Simon Peter asked him, "Lord, where are you going?" Jesus replied, "Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow later."
37
Peter asked, "Lord, why can't I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you."
38
Then Jesus answered, "Will you really lay down your life for me? I tell you the truth, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times!


John 14

1
"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God ; trust also in me.
2
In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you.
3
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
4
You know the way to the place where I am going."
5
Thomas said to him, "Lord, we don't know where you are going, so how can we know the way?"
6
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
7
If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him."
8
Philip said, "Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us."
9
Jesus answered: "Don't you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, `Show us the Father'?
10
Don't you believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? The words I say to you are not just my own. Rather, it is the Father, living in me, who is doing his work.
11
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the miracles themselves.
12
I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father.
13
And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Son may bring glory to the Father.
14
You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.
15
"If you love me, you will obey what I command.
16
And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever--
17
the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.
18
I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
19
Before long, the world will not see me anymore, but you will see me. Because I live, you also will live.
20
On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you.
21
Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him."
22
Then Judas (not Judas Iscariot) said, "But, Lord, why do you intend to show yourself to us and not to the world?"
23
Jesus replied, "If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.
24
He who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.
25
"All this I have spoken while still with you.
26
But the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
28
"You heard me say, `I am going away and I am coming back to you.' If you loved me, you would be glad that I am going to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.
29
I have told you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe.
30
I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming. He has no hold on me,
31
but the world must learn that I love the Father and that I do exactly what my Father has commanded me. "Come now; let us leave.


John 15

1
"I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
2
He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.
3
You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
4
Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
5
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
6
If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.
7
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you.
8
This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
9
"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.
10
If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love.
11
I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
12
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
13
Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.
14
You are my friends if you do what I command.
15
I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you.
16
You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit--fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
17
This is my command: Love each other.
18
"If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first.
19
If you belonged to the world, it would love you as its own. As it is, you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.
20
Remember the words I spoke to you: `No servant is greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also. If they obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.
21
They will treat you this way because of my name, for they do not know the One who sent me.
22
If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin.
23
He who hates me hates my Father as well.
24
If I had not done among them what no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin. But now they have seen these miracles, and yet they have hated both me and my Father.
25
But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: `They hated me without reason.'
26
"When the Counselor comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father, he will testify about me.
27
And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.
