Matthew 26:30-35

30After they sang a hymn, they went to the Mount of Olives.

31Then 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.”

33Peter said to him, “Even if everyone else abandons you, I never will.”

34Jesus replied to Peter, “I can guarantee this truth: Before a rooster crows tonight, you will say three times that you don’t know me.”

35Peter 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.
