Matthew 26:31-35
English Standard Version
31 Then Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away because of me this night. For it is written, ‘I will (A)strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I am raised up, (B)I will go before you to Galilee.” 33 (C)Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.” 34 (D)Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, (E)before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” 35 (F)Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!” And all the disciples said the same.

31 Τότε λέγει αὐτοῖς ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Πάντες ὑμεῖς σκανδαλισθήσεσθε ἐν ἐμοὶ ἐν τῇ νυκτὶ ταύτῃ, γέγραπται γάρ· Πατάξω τὸν ποιμένα, καὶ [a]διασκορπισθήσονται τὰ πρόβατα τῆς ποίμνης· 32 μετὰ δὲ τὸ ἐγερθῆναί με προάξω ὑμᾶς εἰς τὴν Γαλιλαίαν. 33 ἀποκριθεὶς δὲ ὁ Πέτρος εἶπεν αὐτῷ· Εἰ πάντες σκανδαλισθήσονται ἐν σοί, [b]ἐγὼ οὐδέποτε σκανδαλισθήσομαι. 34 ἔφη αὐτῷ ὁ Ἰησοῦς· Ἀμὴν λέγω σοι ὅτι ἐν ταύτῃ τῇ νυκτὶ πρὶν ἀλέκτορα φωνῆσαι τρὶς ἀπαρνήσῃ με. 35 λέγει αὐτῷ ὁ Πέτρος· Κἂν δέῃ με σὺν σοὶ ἀποθανεῖν, οὐ μή σε [c]ἀπαρνήσομαι. [d]ὁμοίως καὶ πάντες οἱ μαθηταὶ εἶπαν.

New International Version
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(A)
31 Then Jesus told them, “This very night you will all fall away on account of me,(B) for it is written:
32 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”(D)
33 Peter replied, “Even if all fall away on account of you, I never will.”
34 “Truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “this very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown me three times.”(E)
35 But Peter declared, “Even if I have to die with you,(F) I will never disown you.” And all the other disciples said the same.
