Mark 14:26-31

Jesus Foretells Peter’s Denial

26 ¹And when they had sung a hymn, ²they went out to ³the Mount of Olives.

27 And Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written, ‘I will ⁴strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered. ’

28 But after I am raised up, ⁵I will go before you to Galilee. ”

29 ⁶Peter said to him, “Even though they all fall away, I will not. ”

30 And ⁷Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before ⁸the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times. ”

31 But ⁹he said emphatically, “If I must die with you, I will not deny you. ” And they all said the same.
