| Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. | So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet. |

| Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. | Very truly, I tell you, servants are not greater than their master, nor are messengers greater than the one who sent them. |
| Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me. | Very truly, I tell you, whoever receives one whom I send receives me; and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. |
| A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. | I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. |
| By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. | By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. |
