John 21:17–23

17 He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of 6Jonah, do you 7love Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you 7love Me?”

And he said to Him, “Lord, oYou know all things; You know that I 7love You.”

Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep. 18 pMost assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish.” 19 This He spoke, signifying qby what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, r“Follow Me.”

20 Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple swhom Jesus loved following, twho also had leaned on His breast at the supper, and said, “Lord, who is the one who betrays You?” 21 Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, “But Lord, what about this man?”

22 Jesus said to him, “If I 8will that he remain utill I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.”

23 Then this saying went out among the brethren that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you?”
