Mark 14:27-31

Predictions about disciples leaving Jesus

27 Jesus said to them, " You will all falter in your faithfulness to me. It is written, I will hit the shepherd, and the sheep will go off in all directions.

28 But after I'm raised up, I will go before you to Galilee."

29 Peter said to him, "Even if everyone else stumbles, I won't."

30 But Jesus said to him, " I assure you that on this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times."

31 But Peter insisted, "If I must die alongside you, I won't deny you." And they all said the same thing.
