1 Now before the feast of Passover, Jesus, knowing that his hour had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, and having loved his own in the world, loved them to the end.
2 And as a dinner was taking place, when the devil had already put into the heart of Judas son of Simon Iscariot that he should betray him,
3 because he knew that the Father had given him all things into his hands, and that he had come forth from God and was going away to God,
4 he got up from the dinner and took off his outer clothing, and taking a towel, tied it around himself.
5 Then he poured water into the washbasin and began to wash the feet of the disciples, and to wipe them dry with the towel which he had tied around himself.
