Peter's Promise
(Matthew 26.31-35; Luke 22.31-34; John 13.36-38)
27 Jesus said to his disciples, “All of you will reject me, as the Scriptures say,
‘I will strike down
the shepherd,
and the sheep
will be scattered.’
28 But after I am raised to life, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.”
29Peter spoke up, “Even if all the others reject you, I never will!”
30Jesus replied, “This very night before a rooster crows twice, you will say three times that you don't know me.”
31But Peter was so sure of himself that he said, “Even if I have to die with you, I will never say I don't know you!”
All the others said the same thing.
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
27On the way, Jesus told them, “All of you will desert me. For the Scriptures say,
‘God will strike the Shepherd,
and the sheep will be scattered.’
28But after I am raised from the dead, I will go ahead of you to Galilee and meet you there.”
29Peter said to him, “Even if everyone else deserts you, I never will.”
30Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, Peter—this very night, before the cock crows twice, you will deny three times that you even know me.”
31“No!” Peter declared emphatically. “Even if I have to die with you, I will never deny you!” And all the others vowed the same.
Jesus predicts Peter’s denial
27‘You will all fall away,’ Jesus told them, ‘for it is written:
‘ “I will strike the shepherd,
and the sheep will be scattered.”
28But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.’
29Peter declared, ‘Even if all fall away, I will not.’
30‘Truly I tell you,’ Jesus answered, ‘today – yes, tonight – before the cock crows twice you yourself will disown me three times.’
31But Peter insisted emphatically, ‘Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you.’ And all the others said the same.
