| 18 | I can guarantee this truth: When you were young, you would get ready to go where you wanted. But when you're old, you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will get you ready to take you where you don't want to go.| | Truly, truly, I say to you, when you were young, you used to dress yourself and walk wherever you wanted, but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will dress you and carry you where you do not want to go.” | Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.” | |
| 19 | Jesus said this to show by what kind of death Peter would bring glory to God. After saying this, Jesus told Peter, |Follow me!| | (This he said to show by what kind of death he was to glorify God.) And after saying this he said to him, “Follow me.” | Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!” | |
