WEB World English Bible (Classic, with Deuterocanon)
1 Era el día antes de la fiesta de la Pascua, y Jesús sabía que había llegado la hora de abandonar este mundo y volver a su Padre. Había amado a quienes estaban en el mundo y que eran suyos, y ahora les había demostrado por completo su amor hacia ellos.
1 Now 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.
2 Era el momento de la cena, y el diablo ya había inculcado la idea de traicionar a Jesús en la mente de Judas, el hijo de Simón Iscariote.
2 During supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon’s son, to betray him,
3 Jesús sabía que el Padre había puesto todas las cosas bajo su autoridad, y él había venido de Dios y ahora iba a regresar a Dios.
3 Jesus, knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he came from God and was going to God,
4 Entonces Jesús se levantó en medio de la cena, quitó su bata y se ciñó con una toalla.
4 arose from supper, and laid aside his outer garments. He took a towel and wrapped a towel around his waist.
5 Echó agua en un tazón y comenzó a lavar los pies de sus discípulos, secándolos con la toalla con la que se había ceñido.
5 Then 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.
6 Se acercó a Simón Pedro, quien le preguntó: “Señor, ¿vas a lavar mis pies?”
6 Then he came to Simon Peter. He said to him, “Lord, do you wash my feet?”
7 Jesús respondió: “Ahora no entenderás lo que estoy haciendo por ti. Pero un día entenderás”.
7 Jesus answered him, “You don’t know what I am doing now, but you will understand later.”
8 “¡No!” protestó Pedro. “¡Nunca lavarás mis pies!” Jesús respondió, “Si no te lavo, no tendrás parte conmigo”,
8 Peter said to him, “You will never wash my feet!” Jesus answered him, “If I don’t wash you, you have no part with me.”
9 “¡Entonces, Señor, no laves solamente mis pies, sino también mis manos y mi cabeza!” exclamó Simón Pedro.
9 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head!”
10 Jesús respondió, “Cualquiera que ya se ha bañado, solo necesita lavar sus pies y entonces estará completamente limpio. Ustedes están limpios—pero no todos”.
10 Jesus 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.”
11 Pues él sabía quién era el que iba a traicionarlo. Por eso dijo “No todos están limpios”.
11 For he knew him who would betray him; therefore he said, “You are not all clean.”
12 Después que Jesús hubo lavado los pies de los discípulos, volvió a ponerse su bata y se sentó. “¿Entienden ustedes lo que les he hecho?” les preguntó.
12 So 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?
13 “Ustedes me llaman ‘Maestro’ y ‘Señor,’ y está bien que lo hagan, pues eso es lo que soy.
13 You call me, ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord.’ You say so correctly, for so I am.
14 Así que si yo, que soy su Maestro y su Señor, he lavado sus pies, ustedes deben lavarse los pies unos a otros.
14 If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another’s feet.
15 Yo les he dejado un ejemplo, para que ustedes hagan como yo hice.
15 For I have given you an example, that you should also do as I have done to you.
16 Les digo la verdad, los siervos no son más importantes que su amo, y el que es enviado no es mayor que quien lo envía.
16 Most certainly I tell you, a servant is not greater than his lord, neither is one who is sent greater than he who sent him.
17 Ahora que ustedes entienden estas cosas, serán benditos si las hacen.
17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them.
18 No estoy hablando de todos ustedes—Yo conozco a los que he escogido. Pero para cumplir la Escritura: ‘El que comparte mi comida se ha vuelto contra mí’.
18 I 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.’
19 Les digo ahora, antes de que ocurra, para que cuando ocurra, estén convencidos de que yo soy quien soy.
19 From now on, I tell you before it happens, that when it happens, you may believe that I am he.
20 Les digo la verdad, cualquiera que recibe a quien yo envío, me recibe a mí, y recibe a Aquél que me envió”.
20 Most certainly I tell you, he who receives whomever I send, receives me; and he who receives me, receives him who sent me.”
21 Después que dijo esto, Jesús estuvo profundamente atribulado, y declaró: “Les digo la verdad, uno de ustedes va a traicionarme”.
21 When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in spirit, and testified, “Most certainly I tell you that one of you will betray me.”
22 Los discípulos se miraron unos a otros, preguntándose de cuál de ellos hablaba Jesús.
22 The disciples looked at one another, perplexed about whom he spoke.
23 El discípulo a quien Jesús amaba estaba sentado junto a él en la mesa, apoyado cerca de él.
23 One of his disciples, whom Jesus loved, was at the table, leaning against Jesus’ chest.
24 Simón Pedro le hizo señas para que le preguntara a Jesús de cuál de todos ellos hablaba.
24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him, and said to him, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.”
25 Entonces él se inclinó hacia Jesús y le preguntó, “Señor, ¿quién es?”
25 He, leaning back, as he was, on Jesus’ chest, asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
26 Jesús respondió: “Es aquél a quien yo le entregue un trozo de pan después de haberlo mojado”.
26 Jesus 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.
27 Después de haber mojado el trozo de pan, lo dio a Judas, hijo de Simón Iscariote. Cuando Judas tomó el pan, Satanás entró en él. “Lo que vas a hacer, hazlo rápido”, le dijo Jesús.
27 After the piece of bread, then Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you do, do quickly.”
28 Ninguno en la mesa entendió lo que Jesús quiso decir con esto.
28 Now nobody at the table knew why he said this to him.
29 Como Judas estaba a cargo del dinero, algunos de ellos pensaron que Jesús le estaba diciendo que se fuera y comprara lo necesario para la fiesta de la Pascua, o que fuera a donar algo a los pobres.
29 For 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.
30 Judas se fue inmediatamente después que hubo tomado el trozo de pan y se marchó. Y era de noche.
30 Therefore having received that morsel, he went out immediately. It was night.
31 Después que Judas se fue, Jesús dijo: “Ahora el Hijo del hombre es glorificado, y por medio de él, Dios es glorificado.
31 When he had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man has been glorified, and God has been glorified in him.
32 Si Dios es glorificado por medio de él, entonces Dios mismo glorificará al hijo, y lo glorificará inmediatamente.
32 If God has been glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him immediately.
33 Mis hijos, yo estaré con ustedes solo un poco más. Me buscarán, pero les digo lo mismo que le dije a los judíos: adonde yo voy, ustedes no pueden ir.
33 Little 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.
34 “Les estoy dando un nuevo mandato: ámense los unos a los otros. Ámense los unos a los otros de la misma manera que yo los he amado a ustedes.
34 A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also love one another.
35 Si ustedes se aman los unos a los otros, demostrarán a todos que son mis discípulos”.
35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
36 Simón Pedro le preguntó: “¿Adónde vas, Señor?” Jesús respondió: “Adonde yo voy, ustedes no pueden seguirme. Ustedes me seguirán después”.
36 Simon 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.”
37 “Señor, ¿por qué no puedo seguirte ahora?” preguntó Pedro. “Entregaré mi vida por ti”.
37 Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.”
38 “¿Realmente estás preparado para morir por mí? Te digo la verdad: antes de que el gallo cante tú me negarás tres veces”, le respondió Jesús.
38 Jesus 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.

What the Fathers said

Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

How these were chosen

“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).

    Now in the last days, when the fulness of the time of liberty had arrived, the Word Himself did by Himself "wash away the filth of the daughters of Zion," when He washed the disciples' feet with His own hands.
