You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am. | You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am. |
If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet. | So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. |

Most assuredly, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master; nor is he who is sent greater than he who sent him. | Amen, amen, I say to you, a servant is not greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. |
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who receives whomever I send receives Me; and he who receives Me receives Him who sent Me. | Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me. |
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. | I give you a new commandment: love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you should also love one another. |
By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. | This is how everyone will know that you are my disciples: if you love one another. |
