You call me Teacher and Lord—and you are right, for that is what I am. | You call me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord,’ and rightly so, for that is what I am. |
So if I, 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. |

Very truly, I tell you, servants are not greater than their master, nor are messengers greater than the one who sent them. | 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. |
Very truly, I tell you, whoever receives one whom I send receives me; and whoever 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. |
I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should 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 everyone 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. |
