Gospel

John 13: 16-20

13:16 Amene, amen, Ke ʻōlelo aku nei au iā ʻoe, the servant is not greater than his Lord, and the apostle is not greater than he who sent him.

13:17 If you understand this, you shall be blessed if you will do it.

13:18 I am not speaking about all of you. I know those whom I have chosen. But this is so that the Scripture may be fulfilled, ‘He who eats bread with me shall lift up his heel against me.’

13:19 And I tell you this now, before it happens, so that when it has happened, you may believe that I am.

13:20 Amene, amen, Ke ʻōlelo aku nei au iā ʻoe, whoever receives anyone whom I send, receives me. And whoever receives me, receives him who sent me.”
