Amplified Bible

John 13:31-38 Amplified Bible (AMP)

31. When he had left, Jesus said, Now is the Son of Man glorified! [Now He has achieved His glory, His honor, His exaltation!] And God has been glorified through and in Him.

32. And if God is glorified through and in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and He will glorify Him at once and not delay.

33. [Dear] little children, I am to be with you only a little longer. You will look for Me and, as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: you are not able to come where I am going.

34. I give you a new commandment: that you should love one another. Just as I have loved you, so you too should love one another.

35. By this shall all [men] know that you are My disciples, if you love one another [if you keep on showing love among yourselves].

36. Simon Peter said to Him, Lord, where are You going? Jesus answered, You are not able to follow Me now where I am going, but you shall follow Me afterwards.

37. Peter said to Him, Lord, why cannot I follow You now? I will lay down my life for You.

38. Jesus answered, Will you [really] lay down your life for Me? I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, before a rooster crows, you will deny Me [completely disown Me] three times.
