Peter’s Denial Predicted
31 Then Jesus said to them, “Tonight all of you will run away[a] because of Me, for it is written:
32 But after I have been resurrected, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.”(B)
33 Peter told Him, “Even if everyone runs away because of You, I will never run away!”
34 “I assure you,” Jesus said to him, “tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times!”(C)

Peter’s Denial Predicted
31 “Simon, Simon,[a] look out! Satan(A) has asked to sift you[b] like wheat.(B) 32 But I have prayed(C) for you[c] that your faith may not fail. And you, when you have turned back, strengthen(D) your brothers.”
33 “Lord,”(E) he 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[d] you deny three times that you know Me!”
Be Ready for Trouble
35 He also said to them, “When I sent you out(F) without money-bag, traveling bag, or sandals, did you lack anything?”
“Not a thing,” they said.
36 Then 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. 37 For I tell you, what is written must be fulfilled in Me: And He was counted among the outlaws.(G)[e] Yes, what is written about Me is coming to its fulfillment.”(H)
38 “Lord,” they said, “look, here are two swords.”
“Enough of that!”[f] He told them.
