ὁ μὲν γὰρ Πέτρος φησίν· »Οὐ μὴ νίψῃς μου τοὺς πόδας εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα« καὶ ἀπεφήνατο, κρίναντος τοῦ Ἰησοῦ νίπτειν αὐτοῦ τοὺς πόδας, τὸ μὴ νιφθήσεσθαι ὑπ’ αὐτοῦ καὶ μὴ νιφθήσεσθαι εἰς τὸν ἅπαντα αἰῶνα· ὁ δὲ βλέπων λυσιτελέστερον εἶναι τὸ ἐν τούτῳ ψεύσασθαι τὸν Πέτρον τοῦ ἀληθεῦσαι αὐτὸν ὑποδείκνυσι τὸ ἐν τῷ μὴ δεῖν ἀληθεύειν τοῦτο εἰρηκότα λυσιτελές, φήσας· »Ἐὰν μὴ νίψω σε, οὐκ ἔχεις μέρος »μετ’ ἐμοῦ«.
