New International Reader's Version

John 13:14-18 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

14. I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet. So you also should wash one another's feet.

15. I have given you an example. You should do as I have done for you.

16. "What I'm about to tell you is true. A servant is not more important than his master. And a messenger is not more important than the one who sends him.

17. Now you know these things. So you will be blessed if you do them.

18. "I am not talking about all of you. I know those I have chosen. But this will happen so that Scripture will come true. It says, 'The one who shares my bread has deserted me.' (Psalm 41:9)
