John 21:19-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁹ And this he said, signifying by what death he should glorify God. And when he had said this, he saith to him: Follow me.

²⁰ Peter turning about, saw that disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also leaned on his breast at supper, and said: Lord, who is he that shall betray thee?

²¹ Him therefore when Peter had seen, he saith to Jesus: Lord, and what shall this man do?

²² Jesus saith to him: So I will have him to remain till I come, what is it to thee? follow thou me.

²³ This saying therefore went abroad among the brethren, that that disciple should not die. And Jesus did not say to him: He should not die; but, So I will have him to remain till I come, what is it to thee?

²⁴ This is that disciple who giveth testimony of these things, and hath written these things; and we know that his testimony is true.
