The New Commandment

³¹ So, when he had gone out, Jesus said, ^(A)“Now the Son of Man is glorified, and ^(B)God is glorified in Him. ³² If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and ^(C)glorify Him immediately. ³³ Little children, I shall be with you a ^(D)little while longer. You will seek Me; ^(E)and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come,’ so now I say to you. ^34 (F)A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. ^35 (G)By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial

³⁶ Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?”

Jesus answered him, “Where I ^(H)am going you cannot follow Me now, but ^(I)you shall follow Me afterward.”

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial^(A)

^31 [a]And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, ^(B)Satan has asked for you, that he may ^(C)sift you as wheat. ³² But ^(D)I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, ^(E)strengthen your brethren.”

³⁷ Peter said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will ^(A)lay down my life for Your sake.”

³³ But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.”

³⁸ Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for My sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the rooster shall not ^(A)crow till you have denied Me three times.

^34 (A)Then He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.”

Supplies for the Road

^35 (B)And He said to them, “When I sent you without money bag, knapsack, and sandals, did you lack anything?”

So they said, “Nothing.”

³⁶ Then He said to them, “But now, he who has a money bag, let him take it, and likewise a knapsack; and he who has no sword, let him sell his garment and buy one. ³⁷ For I say to you that this which is written must still be ^[a]accomplished in Me: ^(C)‘And He was numbered with the transgressors.’ For the things concerning Me have an end.”

³⁸ So they said, “Lord, look, here are two swords.”

And He said to them, “It is enough.”
