John 6:66-71
New Living Translation
66 At this point many of his disciples turned away and deserted him. 67 Then Jesus turned to the Twelve and asked, “Are you also going to leave?”
68 Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words that give eternal life. 69 We believe, and we know you are the Holy One of God.[a]”
70 Then Jesus said, “I chose the twelve of you, but one is a devil.” 71 He was speaking of Judas, son of Simon Iscariot, one of the Twelve, who would later betray him.

Peter’s Confession of Faith
66 As a result of this many of His (A)disciples (B)left, and would no longer walk with Him. 67 So Jesus said to (C)the twelve, “You do not want to leave also, do you?” 68 (D)Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have (E)words of eternal life. 69 And we have already believed and have come to know that You are (F)the Holy One of God.” 70 Jesus answered them, “(G)Did I Myself not choose you, (H)the twelve? And yet one of you is (I)a devil.” 71 Now He meant Judas (J)the son of Simon Iscariot; for he, (K)one of (L)the twelve, [a]was going to betray Him.
