John 13:5-9 New International Reader's Version (NIRV)

5. After that, he poured water into a large bowl. Then he began to wash his disciples' feet. He dried them with the towel that was wrapped around him.

6. He came to Simon Peter. "Lord," Peter said to him, "are you going to wash my feet?"

7. Jesus replied, "You don't realize now what I am doing. But later you will understand."

8. "No," said Peter. "You will never wash my feet." Jesus answered, "Unless I wash you, you can't share life with me."

9. "Lord," Simon Peter replied, "not just my feet! Wash my hands and my head too!"
