1. Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end.
2. During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,
3. Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,
4. arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel and wrapped a towel around his waist.
5. Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him.
6. Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”
7. Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”
8. Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.”
9. Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
10. Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.”
11. For he knew him who would betray him; therefore he said, “You are not all clean.”
12. So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you?
13. You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am.
14. If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
15. For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.
16. Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither is one who is sent greater than he who sent him.
17. If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
18. I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen; but that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’
19. From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.
20. Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”
21. When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
22. The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.
23. One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ chest.
24. Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”
25. He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ chest, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26. Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.”So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot.
27. After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”
28. Now nobody at the table knew why he said this to him.
29. For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor.
30. Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.
31. When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.
32. If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.
33. Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you.
34. A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also love one another.
35. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
36. Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.”
37. Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
38. Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.

1. Avant la fête de Pâque, Jésus, sachant que son heure était venue de passer de ce monde à son Père, après avoir aimé les siens qui étaient dans le monde, les aima jusqu’à la fin.
2. Pendant le souper, lorsque déjà le diable avait mis dans le cœur de Judas, fils de Simon Iscariote, le dessein de le livrer,
3. Jésus, qui savait que son Père avait remis toutes choses entre ses mains, et qu’il était sorti de Dieu et s’en allait à Dieu,
4. se leva de table, posa son manteau, et, ayant pris un linge, il s’en ceignit.
5. Puis il versa de l’eau dans le bassin et se mit à laver les pieds de ses disciples, et à les essuyer avec le linge dont il était ceint.
6. Il vint donc à Simon-Pierre ; et Pierre lui dit : « Quoi, vous Seigneur, vous me lavez les pieds ! »
7. Jésus lui répondit : « Ce que je fais, tu ne le sais pas maintenant, mais tu le comprendras bientôt. »
8. Pierre lui dit : « Non, jamais vous ne me laverez les pieds. » Jésus lui répondit : « Si je ne te lave, tu n’auras pas de part avec moi. »
9. Simon-Pierre lui dit : « Seigneur, non seulement les pieds, mais encore les mains et la tête ! »
10. Jésus lui dit : « Celui qui a pris un bain n’a besoin que de laver ses pieds ; il est pur tout entier. Et vous aussi, vous êtes purs, mais non pas tous. »
11. Car il savait quel était celui qui allait le livrer ; c’est pourquoi il dit : « Vous n’êtes pas tous purs. »
12. Après qu’il leur eut lavé les pieds, et repris son manteau, il se remit à table et leur dit : « Comprenez-vous ce que je vous ai fait ?
13. Vous m’appelez le Maître et le Seigneur : et vous dites bien, car je le suis.
14. Si donc moi, le Seigneur et le Maître, je vous ai lavé les pieds, vous devez aussi vous laver les pieds les uns aux autres.
15. Car je vous ai donné l’exemple, afin que, comme je vous ai fait, vous fassiez aussi vous-mêmes.
16. En vérité, en vérité, je vous le dis, le serviteur n’est pas plus grand que son maître, ni l’apôtre plus grand que celui qui l’a envoyé.
17. Si vous savez ces choses vous êtes heureux, pourvu que vous les pratiquiez.
18. Je ne dis pas cela de vous tous ; je connais ceux que j’ai élus ; mais il faut que l’Écriture s’accomplisse : Celui qui mange le pain avec moi, a levé le talon contre moi.
19. Je vous le dis dès maintenant, avant que la chose arrive, afin que, lorsqu’elle sera arrivée, vous reconnaissiez qui je suis.
20. En vérité, en vérité, je vous le dis, quiconque me reçoit, reçoit celui qui m’a envoyé. »
21. Ayant ainsi parlé, Jésus fut troublé en son esprit ; et il affirma expressément : « En vérité, en vérité, je vous le dis, un de vous me livrera. »
22. Les disciples se regardaient les uns les autres, ne sachant de qui il parlait.
23. Or, l’un d’eux était couché sur le sein de Jésus ; c’était celui que Jésus aimait.
24. Simon-Pierre lui fit donc signe pour lui dire : « Qui est celui dont il parle ? »
25. Le disciple, s’étant penché sur le sein de Jésus, lui dit : « Seigneur, qui est-ce ? »
26. Jésus répondit : « C’est celui à qui je présenterai le morceau trempé. » Et ayant trempé du pain, il le donna à Judas Iscariote, fils de Simon.
27. Aussitôt que Judas l’eut pris, Satan entra en lui ; et Jésus lui dit : « Ce que tu fais, fais-le vite. »
28. Aucun de ceux qui étaient à table ne comprit pourquoi il lui disait cela.
29. Quelques-uns pensaient que, Judas ayant la bourse, Jésus voulait lui dire : « Achète ce qu’il faut pour la fête », ou : « Donne quelque chose aux pauvres. »
30. Judas ayant pris le morceau de pain, se hâta de sortir. Il était nuit.
31. Lorsque Judas fut sorti, Jésus dit : « Maintenant le Fils de l’homme a été glorifié, et Dieu a été glorifié en lui.
32. Si Dieu a été glorifié en lui, Dieu aussi le glorifiera en lui-même, et il le glorifiera bientôt.
33. Mes petits enfants, je ne suis plus avec vous que pour un peu de temps. Vous me chercherez et comme j’ai dit aux Juifs qu’ils ne pouvaient venir où je vais, je vous le dis aussi maintenant.
34. Je vous donne un commandement nouveau : que vous vous aimiez les uns les autres ; que comme je vous ai aimés, vous vous aimiez aussi les uns les autres.
35. C’est à cela que tous connaîtront que vous êtes mes disciples, si vous avez de l’amour les uns pour les autres. »
36. Simon-Pierre lui dit : « Seigneur, où vas-tu ? » Jésus répondit : « Où je vais, tu ne peux me suivre à présent ; mais tu me suivras plus tard. - 37. Seigneur, lui dit Pierre, pourquoi ne puis-je te suivre à présent ? Je donnerai ma vie pour toi. »
38. Jésus lui répondit : « Tu donneras ta vie pour moi ! En vérité, en vérité, je te le dis, le coq ne chantera pas, avant que tu ne m’aies renié trois fois. »

1. Ante diem festum Paschæ, sciens Jesus quia venit hora ejus ut transeat ex hoc mundo ad Patrem: cum dilexisset suos, qui erant in mundo, in finem dilexit eos.
2. Et cœna facta, cum diabolus jam misisset in cor ut traderet eum Judas Simonis Iscariotæ:
3. sciens quia omnia dedit ei Pater in manus, et quia a Deo exivit, et ad Deum vadit:
4. surgit a cœna, et ponit vestimenta sua, et cum accepisset linteum, præcinxit se.
5. Deinde mittit aquam in pelvim, et cœpit lavare pedes discipulorum, et extergere linteo, quo erat præcinctus.
6. Venit ergo ad Simonem Petrum. Et dicit ei Petrus: Domine, tu mihi lavas pedes?
7. Respondit Jesus, et dixit ei: Quod ego facio, tu nescis modo: scies autem postea.
8. Dicit ei Petrus: Non lavabis mihi pedes in æternum. Respondit ei Jesus: Si non lavero te, non habebis partem mecum.
9. Dicit ei Simon Petrus: Domine, non tantum pedes meos, sed et manus, et caput.
10. Dicit ei Jesus: Qui lotus est, non indiget nisi ut pedes lavet, sed est mundus totus. Et vos mundi estis, sed non omnes.
11. Sciebat enim quisnam esset qui traderet eum; propterea dixit: Non estis mundi omnes.
12. Postquam ergo lavit pedes eorum, et accepit vestimenta sua, cum recubuisset iterum, dixit eis: Scitis quid fecerim vobis?
13. Vos vocatis me Magister et Domine, et bene dicitis: sum etenim.
14. Si ergo ego lavi pedes vestros, Dominus et Magister, et vos debetis alter alterius lavare pedes.
15. Exemplum enim dedi vobis, ut quemadmodum ego feci vobis, ita et vos faciatis.
16. Amen, amen dico vobis: non est servus major domino suo: neque apostolus major est eo qui misit illum.
17. Si hæc scitis, beati eritis si feceritis ea.
18. Non de omnibus vobis dico: ego scio quos elegerim; sed ut adimpleatur Scriptura: Qui manducat mecum panem, levabit contra me calcaneum suum.
19. Amodo dico vobis, priusquam fiat: ut cum factum fuerit, credatis quia ego sum.
20. Amen, amen dico vobis: qui accipit si quem misero, me accipit; qui autem me accipit, accipit eum qui me misit.
21. Cum hæc dixisset Jesus, turbatus est spiritu: et protestatus est, et dixit: Amen, amen dico vobis, quia unus ex vobis tradet me.
22. Aspiciebant ergo ad invicem discipuli, hæsitantes de quo diceret.
23. Erat ergo recumbens unus ex discipulis ejus in sinu Jesu, quem diligebat Jesus.
24. Innuit ergo huic Simon Petrus, et dixit ei: Quis est, de quo dicit?
25. Itaque cum recubuisset ille supra pectus Jesu, dicit ei: Domine, quis est?
26. Respondit Jesus: Ille est cui ego intinctum panem porrexero. Et cum intinxisset panem, dedit Judæ Simonis Iscariotæ.
27. Et post buccellam, introivit in eum Satanas. Et dixit ei Jesus: Quod facis, fac citius.
28. Hoc autem nemo scivit discumbentium ad quid dixerit ei.
29. Quidam enim putabant, quia loculos habebat Judas, quod dixisset ei Jesus: Eme ea quæ opus sunt nobis ad diem festum: aut egenis ut aliquid daret.
30. Cum ergo accepisset ille buccellam, exivit continuo. Erat autem nox.
31. Cum ergo exisset, dixit Jesus: Nunc clarificatus est Filius hominis, et Deus clarificatus est in eo.
32. Si Deus clarificatus est in eo, et Deus clarificabit eum in semetipso: et continuo clarificabit eum.
33. Filioli, adhuc modicum vobiscum sum. Quæretis me; et sicut dixi Judæis, quo ego vado, vos non potestis venire: et vobis dico modo.
34. Mandatum novum do vobis: ut diligatis invicem: sicut dilexi vos, ut et vos diligatis invicem.
35. In hoc cognoscent omnes quia discipuli mei estis, si dilectionem habueritis ad invicem.
36. Dicit ei Simon Petrus: Domine, quo vadis? Respondit Jesus: Quo ego vado non potes me modo sequi: sequeris autem postea.
37. Dicit ei Petrus: Quare non possum te sequi modo? animam meam pro te ponam.
38. Respondit ei Jesus: Animam tuam pro me pones? amen, amen dico tibi: non cantabit gallus, donec ter me neges.
