Johannes 13

Jesus vasker disiplenes føtter

1  t Det var like før påskehøytiden, og Jesus visste at hans time var kommet da han skulle gå bort fra denne verden og til sin Far. Han hadde elsket sine egne som var i verden, og han elsket dem helt til det siste.
2  t De holdt måltid. Djevelen hadde alt gitt Judas, sønn av Simon Iskariot, den tanken i hjertet at han skulle forråde ham. 3 t Jesus visste at Far hadde gitt alt i hans hånd, og at han var utgått fra Gud og gikk til Gud. 4 Da reiser han seg fra måltidet, legger av seg kappen, tar et linklede og binder det om seg. 5 tt Så heller han vann i et fat og begynner å vaske disiplenes føtter og tørke dem med linkledet som han hadde rundt livet. 6 Han kommer til Simon Peter. Peter sier: «Herre, vasker du mine føtter?» 7 Jesus svarte: «Det jeg gjør, forstår du ikke nå, men du skal forstå det siden.» 8 «Aldri i evighet skal du vaske føttene mine», sier Peter. «Hvis jeg ikke vasker deg, har du ingen del i meg», svarte Jesus. 9 Da sier Peter: «Herre, ikke bare føttene, men hendene og hodet også!» 10 t Jesus sier til ham: «Den som er badet, er helt ren og trenger bare å vaske føttene. Dere er rene – men ikke alle.»

11 t For han visste hvem som skulle forråde ham. Derfor sa han: «Dere er ikke alle rene.»
12 Da han hadde vasket føttene deres og tatt på seg kappen, tok han plass ved bordet igjen. Så sa han til dem: «Forstår dere hva jeg har gjort for dere? 13 t Dere kaller meg mester og herre, og dere gjør det med rette, for jeg er det. 14 t Når jeg som er herren og mesteren, har vasket deres føtter, da skylder også dere å vaske hverandres føtter. 15 t Jeg har gitt dere et forbilde: Slik jeg har gjort mot dere, skal også dere gjøre. 16 t Sannelig, sannelig, jeg sier dere: Tjeneren er ikke større enn herren sin, og utsendingen er ikke større enn han som har sendt ham.

17 Nå vet dere dette. Og salige er dere så sant dere også gjør det.

Forræderen

(Matt 26,20–25; Mark 14,17–21; Luk 22,21–23)

18  t t Jeg taler ikke om dere alle, for jeg vet hvem jeg har utvalgt. Men dette ordet i Skriften må bli oppfylt:
Den som spiser mitt brød,
løftet hælen mot meg.
19  t t Nå sier jeg dette til dere før det skjer, for at dere, når det skjer, skal tro at Jeg er .

20 t Sannelig, sannelig, jeg sier dere: Den som tar imot en som jeg har sendt, tar imot meg. Og den som tar imot meg, tar imot ham som har sendt meg.»
21  t Da Jesus hadde sagt dette, ble han rystet i sitt innerste og sa rett ut: «Sannelig, sannelig, jeg sier dere: En av dere skal forråde meg.» 22 Disiplene så på hverandre; de skjønte ikke hvem han mente. 23 tt En av dem, den disippelen som Jesus hadde kjær, lå ved siden av Jesus ved bordet. 24 Simon Peter nikket til ham for at han skulle spørre hvem han mente. 25 Han lente seg da mot Jesus og sa: «Herre, hvem er det?» 26 Jesus svarte: «Det er han som jeg gir det stykket jeg dypper nå.» Så dyppet han et stykke brød i fatet og ga det til Judas, sønn av Simon Iskariot. 27 t Da Judas hadde fått stykket, fór Satan i ham. Jesus sier til ham: «Gjør det snart, det du skal gjøre.» 28 Ingen ved bordet skjønte hva han mente med dette. 29 t Siden Judas hadde pengekassen, trodde noen at Jesus ville han skulle gå og kjøpe det de trengte til høytiden, eller at han skulle gi noe til de fattige.

30 t Da Judas hadde fått stykket, gikk han straks ut. Det var natt.

Et nytt bud

35 t Ved dette skal alle forstå at dere er mine disipler: at dere har kjærlighet til hverandre.»

Jesus forutsier Peters fornektelse

John 13

Washing the Disciples’ Feet

1 Just before the Passover feast, Jesus knew that his timet had come to departt from this world to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he now loved them to the very end.ts2 The evening mealt was in progress, and the devil had already put into the hearts of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, that he should betrayt Jesus.t3 Because Jesust knew that the Father had handed all things over to him,t and that he had come from God and was going back to God,4 he got up from the meal, removedt his outer clothes,t took a towel and tied it around himself.t

5 He poured water into the washbasin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to dry them with the towel he had wrapped around himself.t
6 Then he came to Simon Peter. Petert said to him, “Lord, are you going to washt my feet?”7 Jesus replied,t “You do not understandt what I am doing now, but you will understandt after these things.”8 Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!”t Jesus replied,t “If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.”t9 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, washt not only my feet, but also my hands and my head!”10 Jesus replied,t “The one who has bathed needs only to wash his feet,t but is completelyt clean.s And you disciplest are clean, but not every one of you.”

11 (For Jesust knew the one who was going to betray him. For this reason he said, “Not every one of you ist clean.”)s
12 So when Jesust had washed their feet and put his outer clothing back on, he took his place at the tablet again and said to them, “Do you understandt what I have done for you?13 You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and do so correctly,t for that is what I am.t14 If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you too ought to wash one another’s feet.15 For I have given you an examples – you should do just as I have done for you.16 I tell you the solemn truth,t the slavet is not greater than his master, nor is the one who is sent as a messengert greater than the one who sent him.

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

The Announcement of Jesus’ Betrayal

18 “What I am saying does not refer to all of you. I know the ones I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the scripture,t ‘The one who eats my breadthas turned against me.’ts19 I am telling you this now,t before it happens, so that when it happens you may believet that I am he.t

20 I tell you the solemn truth,t whoever acceptst the one I send accepts me, and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.”s
21 When he had said these things, Jesus was greatly distressedt in spirit, and testified,t “I tell you the solemn truth,t one of you will betray me.”t22 The disciples began to look at one another, worried and perplexedt to know which of them he was talking about.23 One of his disciples, the one Jesus loved,s was at the tablet to the right of Jesus in a place of honor.ts24 So Simon Peters gestured to this disciplet to ask Jesust who it was he was referring to.s25 Then the disciple whom Jesus lovedt leaned back against Jesus’ chest and asked him, “Lord, who is it?”26 Jesus replied,t “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of breads after I have dipped it in the dish.”t Then he dipped the piece of bread in the disht and gave it to Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son.27 And after Judast took the piece of bread, Satan entered into him.ts Jesus said to him,t “What you are about to do, do quickly.”28 (Now none of those present at the tablet understoodt why Jesust said this to Judas.t29 Some thought that, because Judas had the money box, Jesus was telling him to buy whatever they needed for the feast,t or to give something to the poor.)s

30 Judast took the piece of bread and went out immediately. (Now it was night.)s

The Prediction of Peter’s Denial

31 Whent Judast had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.32 If God is glorified in him,s God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him right away.t

33 Children, I am still with you for a little while. You will look for me,t and just as I said to the Jewish religious leaders,t ‘Where I am going you cannot come,’s now I tell you the same.t
34 “I give you a new commandment – to lovet one another. Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another.s

35 Everyonet will know by this that you are my disciples – if you have love for one another.”
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied,t “Where I am going, you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.”37 Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!”t

38 Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for me?t I tell you the solemn truth,t the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!
