John 21:15
Compare all
13 Jesus then came and took the bread and gave it to them, and likewise the fish.
14 This is now athe third time Jesus showed Himself to His disciples after He was raised from the dead.  

Jesus Restores Peter

15 So when they had eaten breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon, son of1 Jonah, do you love Me more than these?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I2 love You.” He said to him, a“Feed My lambs.”  
16 He said to him again a second time, “Simon, son of1 Jonah, do you love Me?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I2 love You.” aHe said to him, “Tend My bsheep.”  
17 He said to him the third time, “Simon, son of1 Jonah, do you love Me?” Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, “Do you love Me?” And he said to Him, “Lord, aYou know all things; You know that I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.  
18 aMost assuredly, I say to you, when you were younger, you girded yourself and walked where you wished; but when you are old, you will stretch out your hands, and another will gird you and carry you where you do not wish.”  
19 This He spoke, signifying aby what death he would glorify God. And when He had spoken this, He said to him, b“Follow Me.”  

The Beloved Disciple and His Book

20 Then Peter, turning around, saw the disciple awhom Jesus loved following, bwho also had leaned on His breast at the supper, and said, “Lord, who is the one who betrays You?”  
21 Peter, seeing him, said to Jesus, “But Lord, what about this man?”
22 Jesus said to him, “If I1 will that he remain atill I come, what is that to you? You follow Me.”  
23 Then this saying went out among the brethren that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you?”
24 This is the disciple who atestifies of these things, and wrote these things; and we know that his testimony is true.  
25 aAnd there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, bI suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.
