12 When Jesus finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and went back to the table. He asked, “Do you understand what I did for you?
13 You call me ‘Teacher.’ And you call me ‘Lord.’ And this is right, because that is what I am.
14 I am your Lord and Teacher. But I washed your feet. So you also should wash each other’s feet.
15 I did this as an example for you. So you should serve each other just as I served you.

17 If you know these things, great blessings will be yours if you do them.
18 “I am not talking about all of you. I know the people I have chosen. But what the Scriptures say must happen: ‘The man who shared my food has turned against me.’
