³¹ Then Jesus *said to them, “You will all ^[a](A)fall away because of Me this night, for it is written: ‘^(B)I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be ^(C)scattered.’

³³ But Peter replied to Him, “Even if they all ^[a]fall away because of You, I will never fall away!” ³⁴ Jesus said to him, “^(A)Truly I say to you that ^(B)this very night, before a rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.” ³⁵ Peter *said to Him, “^(C)Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!” All the disciples said the same thing as well.
