John 13:28-38 ▼

28 Now no one of those reclining [at the table] knew for what purpose He had said this to him.

29 For some were supposing, because Judas had the money box, that Jesus was saying to him, |Buy the things we have need of for the feast|; or else, that he should give something to the poor.

30 So after receiving the morsel he went out immediately; and it was night.

31 Therefore when he had gone out, Jesus said, |Now is the Son of Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him;

32 if God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify Him immediately.

33 |Little children, I am with you a little while longer. You will seek Me; and as I said to the Jews, now I also say to you, 'Where I am going, you cannot come.'

34 |A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.

35 |By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.|

36 Simon Peter said to Him, |Lord, where are You going?| Jesus answered, |Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but you will follow later.|

37 Peter said to Him, |Lord, why can I not follow You right now? I will lay down my life for You.|

38 Jesus answered, |Will you lay down your life for Me? Truly, truly, I say to you, a rooster will not crow until you deny Me three times.
