John 21:22-24

New International Version - UK

²² Jesus answered, ‘If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you? You must follow me.’ ²³ Because of this, the rumour spread among the believers that this disciple would not die. But Jesus did not say that he would not die; he only said, ‘If I want him to remain alive until I return, what is that to you?’

²⁴ This is the disciple who testifies to these things and who wrote them down. We know that his testimony is true.
