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.
16. Believe me, servants are not greater than their master. Those who are sent to do something are not greater than the one who sent them.
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.’
19. I am telling you this now before it happens. Then when it happens, you will believe that I AM.
20. I assure you, whoever accepts the person I send also accepts me. And whoever accepts me also accepts the one who sent me.”
21. After Jesus said these things, he felt very troubled. He said openly, “Believe me when I say that one of you will hand me over to my enemies.”
22. His followers all looked at each other. They did not understand who Jesus was talking about.
