SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 13:21–30: Jesus predicted that someone would betray him

In this section Jesus told his disciples that one of them would betray him. The disciples wondered who he meant. Jesus showed them by giving a piece of bread to Judas. Judas then left the room.

Here are some other possible section headings:

Jesus predicted that one of his disciples would betray him

Jesus knew one of his disciples would oppose him

Paragraph 13:21–30

The Jewish custom at meals was to have several couches arranged in a U-shape around the table. The guests reclined (leaned) on the couches around the table, leaning on their left elbow. Jesus was probably in the center, and John was on Jesus’ right. In this paragraph Peter told John to ask Jesus who would betray him. Jesus said that the person to whom he gave bread would be the one who would betray him. He gave the bread to Judas.

13:24a

So Simon Peter motioned to him

so Simon Peter nodded to him
So Peter signaled to him

So Simon Peter motioned to him: There is a textual issue in this verse:

Most Greek manuscripts just say that Simon Peter motioned to the other disciple (John). For example:
Simon motioned for that disciple to find out which one Jesus meant (CEV) (BSB, NRSV, CEV, KJV, NCV, REB, NET, ESV, NLT, NABRE)
Other Greek manuscripts say that Simon Peter both motioned and said something to John. For example:
Simon Peter motioned to that disciple and said, “Ask Jesus whom he’s talking about!” (GW) (NASB, NIV, NJB, RSV, GW, GNT)

It is recommended that you follow option (1). It seems to have the best support and most English translations follow it.

Simon Peter: Refer to this disciple as you did in 1:40 and 13:6.

motioned: The verb motioned means “signaled by moving part of one’s body.” Simon Peter moved a part of his body to signal John so he would ask Jesus whom he was talking about. You may want to translate this movement with a general word as the BSB did. Or you may want to use a movement that the local culture would use. For example:

Simon Petrus eye-signaled him (Uma Back Translation)

Simon Peter signalled to him (REB)

Simon Peter nodded to him

to him: The pronoun him refers to the disciple whom Jesus loved. Refer to him in a way that is natural in your language. For example:

to that disciple (GW)

to this disciple (NIV)

13:24b

to ask Jesus which one He was talking about.

to ask Jesus whom he was talking about.
so that he would ask Jesus who would betray him.

to ask Jesus which one He was talking about: There is a textual issue in this verse:

Most Greek manuscripts say that Simon Peter asked this other disciple (John) to ask Jesus whom he was talking about. For example:
to ask Jesus whom he was talking about (NCV) (BSB, NRSV, NIV, CEV, NJB, KJV, GW, NCV, REB, NET, ESV, GNT)
Other Greek manuscripts say that Simon Peter asked John to tell him whom Jesus was talking about. This would mean that Peter thought that John already knew who it was. For example:
and said, “Tell us who it is of whom he speaks.” (RSV) (NASB, RSV)

It is recommended that you follow option (1). It is the option selected by the UBS Greek New Testament committee with only a little doubt. Also, most English translations follow this option.

General Comment on 13:24b

In some languages it may not be natural to use indirect speech. Here is one way to use direct speech even though Peter did not say anything:

Simon Peter motioned to him so that he would ask Jesus, “Who are you talking about?”
