Giovanni 13

1Or avanti la festa di Pasqua, Gesù, sapendo che era venuta per lui l’ora di passare da questo mondo al Padre, avendo amato i suoi che erano nel mondo, li amò sino alla fine. 2E durante la cena, quando il diavolo avea già messo in cuore a Giuda Iscariot, figliuol di Simone, di tradirlo, 3Gesù, sapendo che il Padre gli avea dato tutto nelle mani e che era venuto da Dio e a Dio se ne tornava, 4si levò da tavola, depose le sue vesti, e preso un asciugatoio, se ne cinse. 5Poi mise dell’acqua nel bacino, e cominciò a lavare i piedi a’ discepoli, e ad asciugarli con l’asciugatoio del quale era cinto. 6Venne dunque a Simon Pietro, il quale gli disse: Tu, Signore, lavare i piedi a me? 7Gesù gli rispose: Tu non sai ora quello che io fo, ma lo capirai dopo. 8Pietro gli disse: Tu non mi laverai mai i piedi! Gesù gli rispose: Se non ti lavo, non hai meco parte alcuna. 9E Simon Pietro: Signore, non soltanto i piedi, ma anche le mani e il capo! 10Gesù gli disse: Chi è lavato tutto non ha bisogno che d’aver lavati i piedi; è netto tutto quanto; e voi siete netti, ma non tutti. 11Perché sapeva chi era colui che lo tradirebbe; per questo disse: Non tutti siete netti. 12Come dunque ebbe loro lavato i piedi ed ebbe ripreso le sue vesti, si mise di nuovo a tavola, e disse loro: Capite quel che v’ho fatto? 13Voi mi chiamate Maestro e Signore; e dite bene, perché lo sono. 14Se dunque io, che sono il Signore e il Maestro, v’ho lavato i piedi, anche voi dovete lavare i piedi gli uni agli altri. 15Poiché io v’ho dato un esempio, affinché anche voi facciate come v’ho fatto io. 16In verità, in verità vi dico che il servitore non è maggiore del suo signore, né il messo è maggiore di colui che l’ha mandato. 17Se sapete queste cose, siete beati se le fate. 18Io non parlo di voi tutti; io so quelli che ho scelti; ma, perché sia adempita la Scrittura, colui che mangia il mio pane, ha levato contro di me il suo calcagno. 19Fin da ora ve lo dico, prima che accada; affinché, quando sia accaduto, voi crediate che sono io (il Cristo). 20In verità, in verità vi dico: Chi riceve colui che io avrò mandato, riceve me; e chi riceve me, riceve Colui che mi ha mandato. 21Dette queste cose, Gesù fu turbato nello spirito, e così apertamente si espresse: In verità, in verità vi dico che uno di voi mi tradirà. 22I discepoli si guardavano l’un l’altro, stando in dubbio di chi parlasse. 23Or, a tavola, inclinato sul seno di Gesù, stava uno de’ discepoli, quello che Gesù amava. 24Simon Pietro quindi gli fe’ cenno e gli disse: Di’, chi è quello del quale parla? 25Ed egli, chinatosi così sul petto di Gesù, gli domandò: Signore, chi è? Gesù rispose: 26E’ quello al quale darò il boccone dopo averlo intinto. E intinto un boccone, lo prese e lo diede a Giuda figlio di Simone Iscariota. 27E allora, dopo il boccone, Satana entrò in lui. Per cui Gesù gli disse: Quel che fai, fallo presto. 28Ma nessuno de’ commensali intese perché gli avesse detto così. 29Difatti alcuni pensavano, siccome Giuda tenea la borsa, che Gesù gli avesse detto: Compra quel che ci abbisogna per la festa; ovvero che desse qualcosa ai poveri. 30Egli dunque, preso il boccone, uscì subito; ed era notte. 31Quand’egli fu uscito, Gesù disse: Ora il Figliuol dell’uomo è glorificato, e Dio è glorificato in lui. 32Se Dio è glorificato in lui, Dio lo glorificherà anche in se stesso, e presto lo glorificherà. 33Figliuoletti, è per poco che sono ancora con voi. Voi mi cercherete; e, come ho detto ai Giudei: "Dove vo io, voi non potete venire", così lo dico ora a voi. 34Io vi do un nuovo comandamento: che vi amiate gli uni gli altri. Com’io v’ho amati, anche voi amatevi gli uni gli altri. 35Da questo conosceranno tutti che siete miei discepoli, se avete amore gli uni per gli altri. 36Simon Pietro gli domandò: Signore, dove vai? Gesù rispose: Dove io vado, non puoi per ora seguirmi; ma mi seguirai più tardi. 37Pietro gli disse: Signore, perché non posso seguirti ora? Metterò la mia vita per te! 38Gesù gli rispose: Metterai la tua vita per me? In verità, in verità ti dico che il gallo non canterà che già tu non m’abbia rinnegato tre volte.

1Now before the feast of the Passover, Jesus, knowing that his time had come that he would depart from this world to the Father, having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 2During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him, 3Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God, and was going to God, 4arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel, and wrapped a towel around his waist. 5Then he poured water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples’ feet, and to wipe them with the towel that was wrapped around him. 6Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?” 7Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.” 8Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.” 9Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!” 10Jesus said to him, “Someone who has bathed only needs to have his feet washed, but is completely clean. You are clean, but not all of you.” 11For he knew him who would betray him, therefore he said, “You are not all clean.” 12So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, “Do you know what I have done to you? 13You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am. 14If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. 15For I have given you an example, that you also should do as I have done to you. 16Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither one who is sent greater than he who sent him. 17If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 18I don’t speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen. But that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me has lifted up his heel against me.’ 19From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he. 20Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.” 21When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.” 22The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke. 23One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ breast. 24Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.” 25He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ breast, asked him, “Lord, who is it?” 26Jesus therefore answered, “It is he to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it.” So when he had dipped the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. 27After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.” 28Now no man at the table knew why he said this to him. 29For some thought, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus said to him, “Buy what things we need for the feast,” or that he should give something to the poor. 30Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night. 31When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him. 32If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately. 33Little children, I will be with you a little while longer. You will seek me, and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come,’ so now I tell you. 34A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, just like I have loved you; that you also love one another. 35By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” 36Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you can’t follow now, but you will follow afterwards.” 37Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.” 38Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for me? Most certainly I tell you, the rooster won’t crow until you have denied me three times.

1En voor het feest van het pascha, Jezus wetende, dat Zijn ure gekomen was, dat Hij uit deze wereld zou overgaan tot den Vader, alzo Hij de Zijnen, die in de wereld waren, liefgehad had, zo heeft Hij hen liefgehad tot het einde. 2En als het avondmaal gedaan was,, toen nu de duivel in het hart van Judas, Simons zoon, Iskariot, gegeven had, dat hij Hem verraden zou), 3Jezus, wetende, dat de Vader Hem alle dingen in de handen gegeven had, en dat Hij van God uitgegaan was, en tot God heenging, 4Stond op van het avondmaal, en legde Zijn klederen af, en nemende een linnen doek, omgordde Zichzelven. 5Daarna goot Hij water in het bekken, en begon de voeten der discipelen te wassen, en af te drogen met den linnen doek, waarmede Hij omgord was. 6Hij dan kwam tot Simon Petrus; en die zeide tot Hem: Heere, zult Gij mij de voeten wassen? 7Jezus antwoordde en zeide tot hem: Wat Ik doe, weet gij nu niet, maar gij zult het na dezen verstaan. 8Petrus zeide tot Hem: Gij zult mijn voeten niet wassen in der eeuwigheid! Jezus antwoordde hem: Indien Ik u niet wasse, gij hebt geen deel met Mij. 9Simon Petrus zeide tot Hem: Heere, niet alleen mijn voeten, maar ook de handen en het hoofd. 10Jezus zeide tot hem: Die gewassen is, heeft niet van node, dan de voeten te wassen, maar is geheel rein. En gijlieden zijt rein, doch niet allen. 11Want Hij wist, wie Hem verraden zou; daarom zeide Hij: Gij zijt niet allen rein. 12Als Hij dan hun voeten gewassen, en Zijn klederen genomen had, zat Hij wederom aan, en zeide tot hen: Verstaat gij, wat Ik ulieden gedaan heb? 13Gij heet Mij Meester en Heere; en gij zegt wel, want Ik ben het. 14Indien dan Ik, de Heere en de Meester, uw voeten gewassen heb, zo zijt gij ook schuldig, elkanders voeten te wassen. 15Want Ik heb u een voorbeeld gegeven, opdat, gelijkerwijs Ik u gedaan heb, gijlieden ook doet. 16Voorwaar, voorwaar zeg Ik u: Een dienstknecht is niet meerder dan zijn heer, noch een gezant meerder, dan die hem gezonden heeft. 17Indien gij deze dingen weet, zalig zijt gij, zo gij dezelve doet. 18Ik zeg niet van u allen: Ik weet, welke Ik uitverkoren heb; maar dit geschiedt, opdat de Schrift vervuld worde: Die met Mij het brood eet, heeft tegen Mij zijn verzenen opgeheven. 19Van nu zeg Ik het ulieden, eer het geschied is, opdat, wanneer het geschied zal zijn, gij geloven moogt, dat Ik het ben. 20Voorwaar, voorwaar zeg Ik u: Zo Ik iemand zende, wie dien ontvangt, die ontvangt Mij, en wie Mij ontvangt, die ontvangt Hem, Die Mij gezonden heeft. 21Jezus, deze dingen gezegd hebbende, werd ontroerd in den geest, en betuigde, en zeide: Voorwaar, voorwaar, Ik zeg u, dat een van ulieden Mij zal verraden. 22De discipelen dan zagen op elkander, twijfelende, van wien Hij dat zeide. 23En een van Zijn discipelen was aanzittende in den schoot van Jezus, welken Jezus liefhad. 24Simon Petrus dan wenkte dezen, dat hij vragen zou, wie hij toch ware, van welken Hij dit zeide. 25En deze, vallende op de borst van Jezus, zeide tot Hem: Heere, wie is het? 26Jezus antwoordde: Deze is het, dien Ik de bete, als Ik ze ingedoopt heb, geven zal. En als Hij de bete ingedoopt had, gaf Hij ze Judas, Simons zoon, Iskariot. 27En na de bete, toen voer de satan in hem. Jezus dan zeide tot hem: Wat gij doet, doe het haastelijk. 28En dit verstond niemand dergenen, die aanzaten, waartoe Hij hem dat zeide. 29Want sommigen meenden, dewijl Judas de beurs had, dat hem Jezus zeide: Koop, hetgeen wij van node hebben tot het feest, of, dat hij den armen wat geven zou. 30Hij dan, de bete genomen hebbende, ging terstond uit. En het was nacht. 31Als hij dan uitgegaan was, zeide Jezus: Nu is de Zoon des mensen verheerlijkt, en God is in Hem verheerlijkt. 32Indien God in Hem verheerlijkt is, zo zal ook God Hem verheerlijken in Zichzelven, en Hij zal Hem terstond verheerlijken. 33Kinderkens, nog een kleinen tijd ben Ik bij u. Gij zult Mij zoeken, en gelijk Ik den Joden gezegd heb: Waar Ik heenga, kunt gij niet komen; alzo zeg Ik ulieden nu ook. 34Een nieuw gebod geef Ik u, dat gij elkander liefhebt; gelijk Ik u liefgehad heb, dat ook gij elkander liefhebt. 35Hieraan zullen zij allen bekennen, dat gij Mijn discipelen zijt, zo gij liefde hebt onder elkander. 36Simon Petrus zeide tot Hem: Heere, waar gaat Gij heen? Jezus antwoordde hem: Waar Ik heenga, kunt gij Mij nu niet volgen; maar gij zult Mij namaals volgen. 37Petrus zeide tot Hem: Heere, waarom kan ik U nu niet volgen? Ik zal mijn leven voor U zetten. 38Jezus antwoordde hem: Zult gij uw leven voor Mij zetten? Voorwaar, voorwaar zeg Ik u: De haan zal niet kraaien, totdat gij Mij driemaal verloochend zult hebben.
