Jesus Foretells Peter’s Denial (MRK 14:26-31)

[14:26] And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives.

[14:27] And Jesus said to them, “You will all fall away, for it is written, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered.’

[14:28] But after I am raised up, I will go before you to Galilee.”

[14:29] Peter said to him, “Even though they all fall away, I will not.”

[14:30] And Jesus said to him, “Truly, I tell you, this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times.”

[14:31] But he said emphatically, “If I must die with you, I will not deny you.” And they all said the same.
