2 Pendant le souper, lorsque le diable avait déjà inspiré au cœur de Judas Iscariot, fils de Simon, le dessein de le livrer,

3 Jésus, qui savait que le Père avait remis toutes choses entre ses mains, qu’il était venu de Dieu, et qu’il s’en allait à Dieu,

4 se leva de table, ôta ses vêtements, et prit un linge, dont il se ceignit.

5 Ensuite il versa de l’eau dans un bassin, et il se mit à laver les pieds des disciples, et à les essuyer avec le linge dont il était ceint.

6 Il vint donc à Simon Pierre; et Pierre lui dit: Toi, Seigneur, tu me laves les pieds!
