Johannes 13

1 Men for Paaskehøitiden, der Jesus vidste, at hans Time var kommen, at han skulde gaae ud af denne Verden til Faderen, da, som han havde elsket sine Egne, som vare i Verden, saa elskede han dem indtil Enden.2 Da nu Nadveren holdtes, og Djævleen allerede havde indskudt i Judas, Simon Søns, Ischariotes' Hjerte, at han skulde forraade ham;3 da Jesus vidste, at Faderen havde givet ham alle Ting i Hænder, og at han udkom fra Gud og gik hen til Gud:4 reiste han sig fra Nadveren og lagde sine Klæder fra sig, og han tog et Lindklæde og bandt op om sig.5 Derefter slog han Vand i et Bækken og begyndte at toe Disciplenes Fødder og at tørre dem med Lindklædet, som han var ombunden med.6 Da kom han til Simon Peter og han sagde til ham: Herre! toer du mine Fødder?7 Jesus svarede og sagde til ham: hvad jeg gjør, veed du ikke nu, men du skal forstaae det herefter.8 Peter siger til ham: du i Evighed ikke toe mine Fødder. Jesus svarede ham: dersom jeg ikke toer dig, har du ingen Deel med mig.9 Simon Peter siger til ham: Herre ikke mine Fødder alene, men ogsaa Hænderne og Hovedet.10 Jesus siger til ham: hvo som er toet, har ikke behov uden at toe Fødderne, men er ganske reen; og I ere rene, men ikke alle.11 Thi han kjendte den, som han forradte; derfor sagde ham: I ere ikke alle rene.12 Der han da havde toet deres Fødder og havde taget sine Klæder, satte han sig atter ned og sagde til dem: vide I, hvad jeg har gjort Eder?13 I kalde mig Mester og Herre, og I tale ret, thi jeg er det.14 Dersom da jeg, Herren og Mesteren, har toet Eders Fødder, saa ere I og skyldige at toe hverandres Fødder.15 Thi jeg har givet Eder et Exempel, at ligesom jeg gjorde Eder, skulle og I gjøre.16 Sandelig, sandelig siger jeg eder: en Tjener er ikke større end hans Herre, ikke heller et Sendebud større end den, han har sendt.17 Dersom I vide dette, ere I salige, om I gjøre det.18 Jeg taler ikke om Eder alle, jeg veed, hvilke jeg har udvalgt; men Skriften maa fuldkommes: den, som æder Brødet med mig, har opløftet sin Hæl imod mig.19 Fra nu af siger jeg Eder det, førend det skeer, at naar det er skeet, I skulle troe, at det er mig.20 Sandelig, sandelig siger jeg eder: hvo som annammer den, som jeg sender, annammer mig; men hvo mig annammer, annammer den, som har sendt mig.21 Der Jesus havde sagt dette, blev han heftig bevæget i Aanden og vidnede og sagde: sandelig, sandelig siger jeg eder, at een af Eder skal forraade mig.22 Da saae Disciplene paa hverandre, tvivlraadige, om hvem han talede.23 Men der var een iblandt hans Disciple, som laa op til Jesu Skjød, hvem Jesus elskede.24 Til denne nikkede derfor Simon Peter, at han skulde udspørge, hvo det maatte vare, han talede om?25 Men denne bøiede sig op til Jesu Bryst og sagde til ham: Herre! hvo er det?26 Jesus svarede: det er den, hvilken jeg giver det Stykke, som jeg dypper. Og han dyppede Stykket og gav Judas, Simons Søn, Ischariotes det.27 Og efterat han havde faaet Stykket, da gik Satan ind i ham. Da sagde Jesus til ham: hvad du gjør, det gjør snart!28 Men ingen af dem, som saade tilbords, forstod, til hvad Ende han sagde ham det.29 Thi Nogle meente, efterdi Judas havde Pungen, at Jesus sagde til ham: kjøb, hvad vi havdebehov til Høitiden; eller at han skulde give Noget til Fattige.30 Der han da havde taget Stykket, gik han strax ud; men det var Nat.31 Der han da var udgangen, sagde Jesus: nu er Menneskens Søn herliggjort, og Gud er herliggjort i ham.32 Dersom Gud er herliggjort i ham, skal Gud og herliggjøre ham i sig selv, og han skal snart herliggjøre ham.33 Børnlille! jeg er endnu lidet hos Eder. I skulle lede efter mig, og ligesom jeg sagde til Jøderne: hvor jeg gaaer hen, kunne I ikke komme, siger jeg og Eder nu.34 Jeg giver Eder en ny Befaling, at I skulle elske hverandre; som jeg elskede Eder, at I og skulle elske hverandre.35 Derpaa skulle Alle kjende, at I ere mine Disciple, dersom I have indbyrdes Kjærlighed.36 Simon Peter sagde til ham: Herre! hvor gaaer du hen? Jesus svarede ham: hvor jeg gaaer hen, kan du ikke nu følge mig.37 Peter siger til ham: Herre! hvorfor kan jeg ikke følge dig nu? Jeg vil sætte mit Liv til for dig.38 Jesus svarede ham: vil du sætte dit Liv til for mig? Sandelig, sandelig siger jeg dig: Hanen skal ikke gale, førend du skal fornægte mig tre Gange.

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!
