OET (OET-LV) Petros is_saying to_him:
By_no_means you_may_ not _wash the feet of_me to the age.
Yaʸsous answered to_him:
If I_may_ not _wash you, are_ not _having part with me.
OET (OET-RV) Peter responded, “Well I’m never ever going to let you wash my feet!”
¶ “If I don’t wash them,” Yeshua answered, “then you won’t be included in my group.”
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / pastforfuture
λέγει
/is/_saying
Here John uses the present tense in past narration in order to call attention to a development in the story.
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublenegatives
ἐὰν μὴ νίψω σε, οὐκ ἔχεις μέρος μετ’ ἐμοῦ
if not ˱I˲_/may/_wash you not /are/_having part with me
Jesus uses two negative statements to convince Peter to allow him to wash his feet. If this double negative would be misunderstood in your language, you could translate it as a positive statement. Alternate translation: “I must wash you so that you can have a share with me”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit
ἐὰν μὴ νίψω σε, οὐκ ἔχεις μέρος μετ’ ἐμοῦ
if not ˱I˲_/may/_wash you not /are/_having part with me
Here, Jesus’ use of no share with me could imply: (1) that Peter must let him wash his feet if he wants to receive his share of the inheritance that God promised to give his people. Alternate translation: “If I do not wash you, you will not share in God’s promised inheritance with me” (2) that Peter must let him wash his feet if he wants to continue being his disciple. Alternate translation: “If I do not wash you, you will no longer be my disciple”
13:8 Based on the depth of his devotion to Jesus, it is understandable that Peter protested. But Jesus was not simply giving Peter a model of service; this was a symbolic pre-enactment of his greater act of sacrifice on the cross (13:7). Receiving Jesus’ spiritual cleansing is a condition for discipleship, so if Peter could not accept this act, he could not be Jesus’ disciple at all.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Greek words that they’re translated from.
