The Bible, Douay-Rheims, Book 50: John: The Challoner Revision
Bible. John
13:18. I speak not of you all: I know whom I have chosen. But that the
scripture may be fulfilled: He that eateth bread with me shall lift up
his heel against me,
13:19. At present I tell you, before it come to pass: that when it shall
come to pass, you may believe that I am he.
13:20. Amen, amen, I say to you, he that receiveth whomsoever I send
receiveth me: and he that receiveth me receiveth him that sent me.
13:21. When Jesus had said these things, he was troubled in spirit; and
he testified, and said: Amen, amen, I say to you, one of you shall
betray me.
13:22. The disciples therefore looked one upon another, doubting of whom
he spoke.
13:23. Now there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom
Jesus loved.
13:24. Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him and said to him: Who is it
of whom he speaketh?
13:25. He therefore, leaning on the breast of Jesus, saith to him: Lord,
who is it?
13:26. Jesus answered: He it is to whom I shall reach bread dipped. And
when he had dipped the bread, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of
Simon.
13:27. And after the morsel, Satan entered into him. And Jesus said to
him: That which thou dost, do quickly.
That which thou dost, do quickly... It is not a license, much less a
command, to go about his treason: but a signification to him that Christ
would not hinder or resist what he was about, do it as soon as he
pleased: but was both ready and desirous to suffer for our redemption.
13:28. Now no man at the table knew to what purpose he said this unto
him.
13:29. For some thought, because Judas had the purse, that Jesus had
said to him: Buy those things which we have need of for the festival
day: or that he should give something to the poor.
13:30. He therefore, having received the morsel, went out immediately.
And it was night.
13:31. When he therefore was gone out, Jesus said: Now is the Son of man
glorified; and God is glorified in him.
13:32. If God be glorified in him, God also will glorify him in himself:
and immediately will he glorify him.
13:33. Little children, yet a little while I am with you. You shall seek
me. And as I said to the Jews: Whither I go you cannot come; so I say to
you now.
13:34. A new commandment I give unto you: That you love one another, as
I have loved you, that you also love one another.
13:35. By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have
love one for another.
13:36. Simon Peter saith to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus
answered: Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now: but thou shalt
follow hereafter.
13:37. Peter saith to him: Why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down
my life for thee.
13:38. Jesus answered him: Wilt thou lay down thy life for me? Amen,
amen, I say to thee, the cock shall not crow, till thou deny me thrice.
John Chapter 14
Christ's discourse after his last supper.
14:1. Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God: believe also
in me.
