John 21:18-19

18“I tell you the truth, when you were young, you were able to do as you liked; you dressed yourself and went wherever you wanted to go. But when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and others will dress you and take you where you don’t want to go.”

19Jesus said this to let him know by what kind of death he would glorify God. Then Jesus told him, “Follow me.”
