31 Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will abandon me tonight. Scripture says,‘I will strike the shepherd,and the sheep in the flock will be scattered.’
32 “But after I am brought back to life, I will go to Galilee ahead of you.”
33 Peter said to him, “Even if everyone else abandons you, I never will.”
34 Jesus replied to Peter, “I can guarantee this truth: Before a rooster crows tonight, you will say three times that you don’t know me.”
35 Peter told him, “Even if I have to die with you, I’ll never say that I don’t know you!” All the other disciples said the same thing.
36 Then Jesus went with the disciples to a place called Gethsemane. He said to them, “Stay here while I go over there and pray.”
37 He took Peter and Zebedee’s two sons with him. He was beginning to feel deep anguish.
