John 13:7-9

New Testament for Everyone

⁷ “You don’t understand yet what I’m doing,” replied Jesus, “but you’ll know afterwards.”

⁸ “I’m not going to have you washing my feet!” said Peter. “Never!”

“If I don’t wash you,” replied Jesus, “you don’t belong to me.”

⁹ “All right then, Master,” said Simon Peter, “but not only my feet—wash my hands and my head as well!”
