Matthew 26:30-35

Jesus Foretells Peter’s Denial

30  a And when they had sung a hymn b they went out to c the Mount of Olives. 31 Then Jesus said to them, You will all fall away because of me this night. For it is written, ‘I will d strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.’ 32 But after I am raised up e I will go before you to Galilee.” 33  f Peter answered him, “Though they all fall away because of you, I will never fall away.” 34  g Jesus said to him, Truly, I tell you, this very night h before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” 35  i Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you!” And all the disciples said the same.
