1 And the days of David drew near for him to die. And he commanded his son
Solomon, saying, 2 I am going in the way of all the earth. And you be strong, and be a man, 3 and keep the charge of YAHUVEH your ELOHIM, to walk in His ways, to keep His
statutes, His commands, and His judgments, and His testimonies, as it is written
in the Torah of Moses, so that you may do wisely all that you do, and there
wherever you may turn, 4 so that YAHUVEH may establish His Word which He spoke to me, saying, If your
sons take heed to their way, to walk before me in truth, with all their heart,
and with all their soul, saying, There shall not be a man to you cut off from
the throne of Israel. 5 And also, you know that which Joab the son of Zeruiah did to me, that which he
did to the two army commanders of Israel, to Abner the son of Ner, and to Amasa
the son of Jether, that he murdered them, and shed the blood of war in peace,
and put the blood of war on his girdle, on his loins and in his sandals on his
feet; 6 and you shall do according to your wisdom, and shall not let his gray hair go
down to Sheol in peace. 7 You shall be merciful to the sons of Barzillai the Gileadite, and they shall
be among those eating at your table, for so they drew near to me when I fled
from the face of your brother Absalom. 8 And, behold, with you is Shimei the son of Gera, the Benjamite of Bahurim. And
he cursed me with a grievous cursing in the day I went to Mahanaim. And he came
down to meet me at the Jordan, and I swore to him by YAHUVEH, saying, I will not
cause you to die by the sword. 9 And now, do not acquit him, for you are a wise man, and you know that which
you shall do to him and shall bring his old age down with blood to Sheol. 10 And David lay with his fathers, and was buried in the city of David. 11 And the days that David reigned over Israel were forty years. He reigned
seven years in Hebron, and he reigned thirty three years in Jerusalem. 12 And Solomon sat on the throne of his father David, and his kingdom was firmly
established.
John 13:1-19
1 And before the Feast of the Passover, Yahshua knowing that His hour had come
that He should move from this world to the Father, loving His own in the world,
He loved them to the end. 2 And supper having occurred, the Devil having put already into the heart of
Simon’s son Judas Iscariot that he should betray Him, 3 Yahshua knowing that the Father has given all things into His hands, and that
He came out from Elohim, and goes away to Elohim, 4 He rose up from the supper and laid aside His garments. And taking a towel, He
girded Himself. 5 Then He put water into the basin and began to wash the feet of the disciples,
and to wipe off with the towel with which He was girded. 6 He then came to Simon Peter. And that one said to Him, Master, do You wash my
feet? 7 Yahshua answered and said to him, The thing that I do you do not understand
now, but afterwards you will know. 8 Peter said to Him, You may never wash my feet for me. Yahshua answered him, If
I do not wash you, you have no part with Me. 9 Simon Peter said to Him, Master, not my feet only, but also the hands and the
head. 10 Yahshua said to him, The one having been immersed has no need other than to
wash the feet, for all of him is clean. And you are clean, but not all. 11 For He knew the one betraying Him. For this reason He said, You are not all
clean. 12 Then when He had washed their feet and had taken His garments, reclining
again, He said to them, Do you know what I have done to you? 13 You call Me the Teacher, and, the Master. And you say well, for I AM. 14 If then I washed your feet, the Master and the Teacher, you also ought to
wash the feet of one another. 15 For I gave you an example, that as I did to you, you also should do. 16 Truly, truly, I say to you, A slave is not greater than his Master, nor a
messenger greater than the one sending him. 17 If you know these things, blessed are you if you do them. 18 I do not speak concerning all of you; I know whom I chose out; but that the
Scripture might be fulfilled, “The one eating the bread with Me lifted up his
heel against Me.” 19 From now on I will say to you a thing before it happens, so that when it
happens you will believe that I Am.
