The Prediction of Peter’s Denial

31  When Judas had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him. 32  If God is glorified in him, God will also glorify him in himself, and he will glorify him right away. 33  Children, I am still with you for a little while. You will look for me, and just as I said to the Jewish religious leaders, ‘Where I am going you cannot come,’ now I tell you the same.

34 “I give you a new commandment – to love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. 35  Everyone will know by this that you are my disciples – if you have love for one another.”

36  Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied, “Where I am going, you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.” 37  Peter said to him, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you!” 38  Jesus answered, “Will you lay down your life for me? I tell you the solemn truth, the rooster will not crow until you have denied me three times!

14 “Do not let your hearts be distressed. You believe in God; believe also in me. 2  There are many dwelling places in my Father’s house. Otherwise, I would have told you, because I am going away to make ready a place for you. 3  And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come again and take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be too. 4  And you know the way where I am going.”

5  Thomas said, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?” 6  Jesus replied, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7  If you have known me, you will know my Father too. And from now on you do know him and have seen him.”

8  Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be content.” 9  Jesus replied, “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not known me, Philip? The person who has seen me has seen the Father! How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10  Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you, I do not speak on my own initiative, but the Father residing in me performs his miraculous deeds. 11  Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me, but if you do not believe me, believe because of the miraculous deeds themselves. 12  I tell you the solemn truth, the person who believes in me will perform the miraculous deeds that I am doing, and will perform greater deeds than these, because I am going to the Father. 13  And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14  If you ask me anything in my name, I will do it.
