Luke 22:28–38

²⁸You are the ones who stood by Me in My trials. ^s29I bestow on you a kingdom, ^tjust as My Father bestowed one on Me, ³⁰so that you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom. ^uAnd you will sit on thrones judging the 12 tribes of Israel. ^v

Peter’s Denial Predicted

³¹“Simon, Simon, ^wlook out! Satan ^xhas asked to sift you ^ylike wheat. ^z32But I have prayed ^afor you ^bthat your faith may not fail. And you, when you have turned back, strengthen ^cyour brothers.”

³³“Lord,” ^dhe told Him, “I’m ready to go with You both to prison and to death!”

³⁴“I tell you, Peter,” He said, “the rooster will not crow today until ^eyou deny three times that you know Me!”

Be Ready for Trouble

³⁵He also said to them, “When I sent you out ^fwithout money-bag, traveling bag, or sandals, did you lack anything?”

“Not a thing,” they said.

³⁶Then He said to them, “But now, whoever has a money-bag should take it, and also a traveling bag. And whoever doesn’t have a sword should sell his robe and buy one. ³⁷For I tell you, what is written must be fulfilled in Me: And He was counted among the outlaws. ^ghYes, what is written about Me is coming to its fulfillment.” ⁱ

³⁸“Lord,” they said, “look, here are two swords.”

“Enough of that!” ^jHe told them.
