31. Jesus told the followers, “Tonight you will lose your faith because of me. It is written in the Scriptures:‘I will kill the shepherd,and the sheep will scatter.’ Zechariah 13:7
32. But after I rise from death, I will go ahead of you into Galilee.”
33. Peter said, “All the other followers may lose their faith because of you. But I will never lose my faith.”
34. Jesus said, “I tell you the truth. Tonight you will say you don’t know me. You will say this three times before the rooster crows.”
35. But Peter said, “I will never say that I don’t know you! I will even die with you!” And all the other followers said the same thing.
36. Then Jesus went with his followers to a place called Gethsemane. He said to them, “Sit here while I go over there and pray.”
37. He told Peter and the two sons of Zebedee to come with him. Then Jesus began to be very sad and troubled.
38. He said to Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, “My heart is full of sorrow and breaking with sadness. Stay here with me and watch.”
39. Then Jesus walked a little farther away from them. He fell to the ground and prayed, “My Father, if it is possible, do not give me this cup of suffering. But do what you want, not what I want.”
