GOD’S WORD Translation

³⁶ Simon Peter asked him, “Lord, where are you going?”

Jesus answered him, “You can’t follow me now to the place where I’m going. However, you will follow me later.”

³⁷ Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I’ll give my life for you.”

³⁸ Jesus replied, “Will you give your life for me? I can guarantee this truth: No rooster will crow until you say three times that you don’t know me.
