GOSPEL: John 13: 1 - 17, 31b - 35 (RCL)
                  John 13: 1 - 15 (Can. BAS, Roman Catholic)
 
John 13:1 (NRSV) Now before the festival of the Passover, Jesus knew that 
his hour had come to depart from this world and go to the Father. Having 
loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 2 The devil 
had already put it into the heart of Judas son of Simon Iscar'iot to betray 
him. And during supper 3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things 
into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going to God, 4 got up 
from the table, took off his outer robe, and tied a towel around himself. 5 
Then he poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples' feet and 
to wipe them with the towel that was tied around him. 6 He came to Simon 
Peter, who said to him, "Lord, are you going to wash my feet?" 7 Jesus 
answered, "You do not know now what I am doing, but later you will 
understand." 8 Peter said to him, "You will never wash my feet." Jesus 
answered, "Unless I 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!" 10 Jesus 
said to him, "One who has bathed does not need to wash, except for the feet, 
but is entirely clean. And you are clean, though not all of you." 11 For he 
knew who was to betray him; for this reason he said, "Not all of you are 
clean."
12 After he had washed their feet, had put on his robe, and had returned to 
the table, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you? 13 You 
call me Teacher and Lord--and you are right, for that is what I am. 14 So if 
I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one 
another's feet. 15 For I have set you an example, that you also should do as 
I have done to you. 16 Very truly, I tell you, servants are not greater than 
their master, nor are messengers greater than the one who sent them. 17 If 
you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.
 
31 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 will glorify him at once. 33 Little children, I am with
you only a little longer. You will look for me; and as I said to the Jews so 
now I say to you, "Where I am going, you cannot come.' 34 I give you a new 
commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also 
should love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my 
disciples, if you have love for one another."
