Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial(A)
36 Simon Peter asked him, “Lord, where are you going?”
Jesus answered him, “I’m going where you cannot follow me now, though you will follow me later on.”
37 “Lord,[a] why can’t I follow you now?” Peter asked him. “I would lay down my life for you!”
38 Jesus answered him, “Would you lay down your life for me? I tell you[b] emphatically, a rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times.”
