John 13
1 When it was the evening before the Passover celebration, Jesus knew that it was time for him to leave this world and [to return] to [his] Father [in heaven]. He loved us who [were his disciples]. He knew [we would continue to live here] in this world, so now he [showed us] how completely he loved us.
Vor dem Fest aber der Ostern, da Jesus erkennete, daß seine Zeit kommen war, daß er aus dieser Welt ginge zum Vater: wie er hatte geliebet die Seinen, die in der Welt waren, so liebte er sie bis ans Ende.
2 We were eating [the Passover meal]. (The devil/Satan) had already suggested to Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]), the son of Simon, that he should (betray Jesus/enable Jesus’ enemies to seize him).
Und nach dem Abendessen, da schon der Teufel hatte dem Judas, Simons Sohn, dem Ischariot, ins Herz gegeben, daß er ihn verriete,
3 But Jesus knew that his Father had given to him complete authority [to control the situation]. He knew that he had come from God and would soon return to God.
wußte Jesus, daß ihm der Vater hatte alles in seine Hände gegeben, und daß er von Gott kommen war und zu Gott ging:
4 [But before he left us, he wanted to show us how we should love each other]. [So] he got up from where he was eating. He took off his [outer] cloak and wrapped a [long] towel around his waist, [as a slave would do].
stund er vom Abendmahl auf, legte seine Kleider ab und nahm einen Schurz und umgürtete sich.
5 Then he poured some water in a basin. He began to wash our feet, and then dry them with the towel that he had wrapped around himself.
Danach goß er Wasser in ein Becken, hub an, den Jüngern die Füße zu waschen, und trocknete sie mit dem Schurz, damit er umgürtet war.
6 When he came to Simon Peter, Peter said to him, “Lord, it is not right for you [RHQ] to [humble yourself by] washing my feet!”
Da kam er zu Simon Petrus; und derselbige sprach zu ihm: HERR, solltest du mir meine Füße waschen?
7 Jesus replied to him, “Now you do not understand [the meaning of] what I am doing, but you will understand later.”
Jesus antwortete und sprach zu ihm: Was ich tue, das weißt du jetzt nicht; du wirst's aber hernach erfahren.
8 Peter said, “I will never, ever, [allow you to] wash my feet!” Jesus replied to him, “If I do not wash you, you cannot continue (to be my [disciple/to belong to] me).” (aiōn g165)
Da sprach Petrus zu ihm: Nimmermehr sollst du mir die Füße waschen. Jesus antwortete ihm: Werde ich dich nicht waschen, so hast du kein Teil mit mir. (aiōn g165)
9 So Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, [in that case], do not wash only my feet. Wash my hands and my head, [too]!”
Spricht zu ihm Simon Petrus: HERR, nicht die Füße alleine, sondern auch die Hände und das Haupt.
10 [Then, to show him that after God had cleansed people from being guilty for sin, they needed only for God to forgive their daily sins] [MET], Jesus said to him, “Those who have recently bathed need only to have their feet washed, [because they get dirty very quickly on the dusty roads]. The [rest of their bodies are] clean. Similarly, I have made you [disciples] free/clean [from the guilt of your sins], although not all of you are free from guilt.”
Spricht Jesus zu ihm: Wer gewaschen ist, der bedarf nicht denn die Füße waschen, sondern er ist ganz rein. Und ihr seid rein, aber nicht alle.
11 He knew which one [of us] was going to betray him. That is the reason he said, “Not all of you are free from guilt.”
Denn er wußte seinen Verräter wohl; darum sprach er: Ihr seid nicht alle rein.
12 After he finished washing our feet, he put his cloak back on. Then he sat down and said to us, “Do you understand what I have done for you?
Da er nun ihre Füße gewaschen hatte, nahm er seine Kleider und setzte sich wieder nieder und sprach abermal zu ihnen: Wisset ihr, was ich euch getan habe?
13 You [show that you respect me by] calling me ‘Teacher’ and ‘Lord’. You are right to say that, because I am your teacher and your Lord.
Ihr heißet mich Meister und HERR und saget recht daran; denn ich bin's auch.
14 But if I, who am your teacher and your Lord, have washed your feet, you ought to [serve each other by doing things like] washing each other’s feet.
So nun ich, euer HERR und Meister, euch die Füße gewaschen habe, so sollt ihr auch euch untereinander die Füße waschen.
15 I have made myself an example for you in order that you should [humbly serve each other] as I have done for you.
Ein Beispiel habe ich euch gegeben, daß ihr tut, wie ich euch getan habe.
16 Listen to this carefully: A servant is not greater than his master. A messenger is not greater than the one who has sent him. [So, since you are not greater than I am, you should not be proud and unwilling to serve each other].
Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage euch, der Knecht ist nicht größer denn sein HERR noch der Apostel größer, denn der ihn gesandt hat.
17 Since you now know these things, [God will] be pleased with you if you do them.”
So ihr solches wisset, selig seid ihr, so ihr's tut.
18 “I am not saying that [God will bless] all of you. I knew [what all of you were like when] I chose you. But [I also chose the one who will betray me], in order that what is written in Scripture might be fulfilled {to fulfill what someone/the psalmist wrote in Scripture}, ‘The one who is [acting like he is my friend by] eating with me has become my enemy [IDM].’
Nicht sage ich von euch allen, (ich weiß, welche ich erwählet habe), sondern daß die Schrift erfüllet werde: Der mein Brot isset, der tritt mich mit Füßen.
19 I am telling you [about someone betraying me] before it happens, in order that when it happens, you may continue to believe that I am ([the Messiah/who I say I am]).
Jetzt sage ich's euch, ehe denn es geschiehet, auf daß, wenn es geschehen ist, daß ihr glaubet, daß ich's bin.
20 Listen to this carefully: Those who accept any one of you whom I am sending out, [God will consider that] they are accepting me. And those who accept me, [God will consider that] they are accepting [my Father], who sent me.”
Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage euch: Wer aufnimmt, so ich jemand senden werde, der nimmt mich auf; wer aber mich aufnimmt, der nimmt den auf, der mich gesandt hat.
21 After Jesus said this, he was very troubled. He solemnly declared, “Listen to this carefully: One of you is going to enable [my enemies] to seize me.”
Da solches Jesus gesagt hatte, ward er betrübt im Geist und zeugete und sprach: Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage euch, einer unter euch wird mich verraten.
22 We looked at each other. We had no way [to know] whom he was talking about.
Da sahen sich die Jünger untereinander an, und ward ihnen bange, von welchem er redete.
23 [I], the [man other people call] ‘the one Jesus loved’, was sitting very close to Jesus.
Es war aber einer unter seinen Jüngern, der zu Tische saß an der Brust Jesu, welchen Jesus liebhatte.
24 Simon Peter motioned to me to indicate that I should ask Jesus whom he was talking about.
Dem winkete Simon Petrus, daß er forschen sollte, wer es wäre, von dem er sagte.
25 So I leaned close to Jesus and asked him, “Lord, who is it?”
Denn derselbige lag an der Brust Jesu und sprach zu ihm: HERR, wer ist's?
26 Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread after I dip it [in the sauce in the dish].” Then, [to show us that he knew who would enable his enemies to seize him], after he dipped the bread [in the sauce], he gave it to Judas Iscariot (OR, Judas, the man from Kerioth [Town]).
Jesus antwortete: Der ist's, dem ich den Bissen eintauche und gebe. Und er tauchte den Bissen ein und gab ihn Judas, Simons Sohn, dem Ischariot.
27 As soon as [Judas ate] the bread, Satan took control of him. Then Jesus said to him, “What you are going to do, do quickly.”
Und nach dem Bissen fuhr der Satan in ihn. Da sprach Jesus zu ihm: Was du tust, das tue bald.
28 But none of the rest of us who were sitting there knew why Jesus said that to him.
Dasselbige aber wußte niemand über dem Tische, wozu er's ihm sagte.
29 Since Judas took care of the money [people gave us to help us], some thought Jesus was telling him to [go and] buy some things we needed for the [Passover] celebration. [Some thought he was telling him] to give some money to poor people.
Etliche meineten, dieweil Judas den Beutel hatte, Jesus spräche zu ihm: Kaufe, was uns not ist auf das Fest; oder daß er den Armen etwas gäbe.
30 As soon as Judas had eaten the bread, he left. It was dark [outside], and it was dark [MET] [in his soul, too].
Da er nun den Bissen genommen hatte, ging er sobald hinaus. Und es war Nacht.
31 After Judas left, Jesus said, “Now it will be shown {[my Father] will show} how wonderful I, the one who came from heaven, am. And by what I do it will be seen {people will see} how great God is.
Da er aber hinausgegangen war, spricht Jesus: Nun ist des Menschen Sohn verkläret, und Gott ist verkläret in ihm.
32 Since by what I do people will see how awesome God is, God himself will show people how awesome I am. And he will do that very soon.
Ist Gott verkläret in ihm, wird ihn auch Gott verklären in ihm selbst und wird ihn bald verklären.
33 [You whom I love as though you were] my children, I will continue with you only a short time longer. Then you will look for me, but I will not be here. Just like I told the Jewish [leaders] [SYN], I am telling you now, that where I am going, you cannot come [yet].
Liebe Kindlein, ich bin noch eine kleine Weile bei euch. Ihr werdet mich suchen; und wie ich zu den Juden sagte: Wo ich hingehe; da könnt ihr nicht hinkommen.
34 Now I am giving you a new commandment: You must love each other. You must love each other in the way that I have loved you.
Und ich sage euch nun: Ein neu Gebot gebe ich euch, daß ihr euch untereinander liebet, wie ich euch geliebet habe, auf daß auch ihr einander lieb habet.
35 If you keep loving each other, everyone [who is aware of that] [HYP] will know that you are my disciples.”
Dabei wird jedermann erkennen, daß ihr meine Jünger seid, so ihr Liebe untereinander habt.
36 Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied, “The place where I am going, you cannot come with me now, but you will come there later.”
Spricht Simon Petrus zu ihm: HERR, wo gehest du hin? Jesus antwortete ihm: Da ich hingehe, kannst du mir diesmal nicht folgen; aber du wirst mir hernachmals folgen.
37 Peter said, “Lord, why can I not come with you now? I [am ready] to die for you!”
Petrus spricht zu ihm: HERR, warum kann ich dir diesmal nicht folgen? Ich will mein Leben für dich lassen.
38 Jesus answered, “[You say] [RHQ] that you [are ready] to die for me. But the truth is that before the rooster crows [early tomorrow morning], you will say three times that you do not [know] me!”
Jesus antwortete ihm: Solltest du dein Leben für mich lassen? Wahrlich, wahrlich, ich sage dir, der Hahn wird nicht krähen, bis du mich dreimal habest verleugnet!
