28 Ye are they which
have continued with
me in my temptations.

unto you a kingdom,
as my Father hath ap-
pointed unto me;

30 That ye may eat
and drink at my table
in my kingdom, and
sit on thrones, judging
the twelve tribes of
Israel.

15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you be- . fore I suffer :

16 For I say unto you,

I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves :

18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

123. Jesus washes the feet of his Disciples.

NOW before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come, that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved

2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him ;

3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come fom God, and went to God;

4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments, and took a towel and girded himself.

5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.

6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter : and Peter said unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now ; but thou shalt know hereafter.

8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my

hands and my head. 10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every

, whit: and ye are clean, but not all.

11 For he knew who should betray him ; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.

12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done unto you?
