OET (OET-LV) Therefore when he_washed the feet of_them, and took the clothes of_him, and sat_down, again he_said to_them:
Are_you_all_knowing what I_have_done to_you_all?

OET (OET-RV) So when he’d finished washing their feet, he got dressed again and sat down and asked, “Do you know what I just did to you all?

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13:1–20: Jesus washed his disciples’ feet

Beginning in this section, Jesus ate supper with the disciples for the last time. First he washed their feet as an example of loving service.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Jesus washed his disciples’ feet at the last supper

Jesus set an example by washing feet

Jesus served his disciples by washing their feet

Paragraph 13:12–17

In this paragraph Jesus explained why he washed his disciples’ feet. Although he was their master, he served them. Now they should serve each other.

13:12a

When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His outer garments, He reclined with them again

The Greek text of this verse includes a word that indicates a return to the main story after the parenthetical information in 13:11. Most English translations, including BSB, do not translate that word. Some English translations close the parentheses at the end of verse 11. Indicate the return to the main story in a way that is natural in your language.

When Jesus had washed their feet and put on His outer garments, He reclined with them again: This expression continues the narrative by telling three things that Jesus did next. However, the emphasis is on what Jesus said after he did these three things. See the General Comment on 13:12a–b for suggestions on translating this as an independent sentence.

Jesus: The Greek word that the BSB translates as Jesus is literally “he,” as in the NRSV. The BSB sometimes uses names instead of pronouns in order to clarify the person to whom the author is referring. Refer to Jesus in a way that is natural in your language.

their feet: It may also be natural to make it explicit that the pronoun their refers to the disciples. For example:

After Jesus washed the disciples’ feet

and put on His outer garments: Jesus put back on the outer garments (outer clothing) that he had taken off in order to wash his disciples’ feet. See 13:4b. Here are other ways to translate this phrase:

put his outer clothing back on (NET)

put on his clothes (NIV)

put his outer garment back on (GNT)

He reclined with them again: The Greek word that the BSB translates literally as reclined with them again indicates that Jesus returned to where he had been reclining (leaning) with the disciples around the food. See the note on “got up from the supper” at 13:4a. Here are other ways to translate this phrase:

took his place at the table again (NET)

returned to his place (NIV)

sat down (NLT)

13:12b

and asked, “Do you know what I have done for you?

and asked: This phrase that the BSB translates as asked is literally “said to them.” Since it introduces a rhetorical question, you might want to indicate that Jesus asked a question.

Do you know what I have done for you?: This is a rhetorical question. Jesus used it to introduce an explanation. Jesus would explain why he washed his disciples’ feet. There are at least three ways to translate this rhetorical question to introduce a topic.

Use whichever form is most natural in your language in this context.

know: The disciples knew what Jesus had done, but not what it meant or why he did it. Here is another way to translate this word:

understand (NIV)

General Comment on 13:12a–b

The BSB has followed the Greek and translated 13:12a–b as one long sentence. In some languages it may be natural to use two or more sentences. For example:

When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. “Do you understand what I have done for you?” he asked them. (NIV)

When he had washed their feet and put on his outer garments again, he went back to the table. ‘Do you understand’, he said, ‘what I have done to you?…’ (NJB)

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / rquestion

γινώσκετε τί πεποίηκα ὑμῖν?

(Some words not found in SR-GNT: ὅτε Οὖν ἔνιψεν τούς πόδας αὐτῶν καί ἔλαβεν τά ἱμάτια αὐτοῦ καί ἀνέπεσεν πάλιν εἶπεν αὐτοῖς Γινώσκετε τί πεποίηκα ὑμῖν)

Jesus is using a question to emphasize the importance of what he is teaching his disciples. If you would not use a rhetorical question for this purpose in your language, you could translate his words as a statement or an exclamation and communicate the emphasis in another way. Alternate translation: [You need to understand what I have done for you!]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

13:1-38 The setting is Jesus’ final Passover meal on Thursday evening, when Judas Iscariot betrays Jesus. John does not record the meal itself as the synoptic Gospels do (Matt 26:17-29; Mark 14:12-25; Luke 22:7-20; see also 1 Cor 11:23-26). John emphasizes other activities at the event, such as the foot washing (John 13:1-17), Judas’s betrayal (13:18-30), and the prediction of Peter’s denials (13:31-38).
