John 13:6

Weymouth NT

When He came to Simon Peter, Peter objected. »Master,« he said, »are you going to wash my feet?«

See the chapter Copy

When Simon Peter saw this, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, and exclaimed, »Master, leave my boat, for I am a sinful man.«

He who is to come after me, and whose sandal-strap I am not worthy to unfasten.«

Then He poured water into a basin, and proceeded to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel which He had put round Him.

»What I am doing,« answered Jesus, »for the present you do not know, but afterwards you shall know.«
