John 13:3-9
English Standard Version

He laid aside his outer garments, and taking a towel, (D)tied it around his waist. 5 Then he (E)poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. 6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” 7 (F)Jesus answered him, “What I am doing (G)you do not understand now, but afterward you will understand.” 8 (H)Peter said to him, “You shall never wash my feet.” Jesus answered him, (I)“If I do not wash you, you have no share with me.” 9 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only but also my hands and my head!”
