402 B

If I do not wash you, you have no share with me

Here Jesus states two negatives to convince Peter to allow him to wash his feet. Jesus implies that Peter must let him wash his feet if he wants to continue being a disciple. Alternate translation: "If I wash you, you will always belong with me" (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-doublenegatives and rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-explicit)
