New Testament

John 13:33-38 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

33. Jesus said, “My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me. And what I told the Jews, I tell you now: Where I am going you cannot come.

34. “I give you a new command: Love each other. You must love each other as I have loved you.

35. All people will know that you are my followers if you love each other.”

36. Simon Peter asked Jesus, “Lord, where are you going?”Jesus answered, “Where I am going you cannot follow now. But you will follow later.”

37. Peter asked, “Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I am ready to die for you!”

38. Jesus answered, “Will you really die for me? I tell you the truth. Before the rooster crows, you will say three times that you don’t know me.”
