John 13:31-38
King James Version
31 Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him.
32 If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify him.
33 Little children, yet a little while I am with you. Ye shall seek me: and as I said unto the Jews, Whither I go, ye cannot come; so now I say to you.
34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
36 Simon Peter said unto him, Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou shalt follow me afterwards.
37 Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake.
38 Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice.

New King James Version
The New Commandment
31 So, when he had gone out, Jesus said, (A)“Now the Son of Man is glorified, and (B)God is glorified in Him. 32 If God is glorified in Him, God will also glorify Him in Himself, and (C)glorify Him immediately. 33 Little children, I shall be with you a (D)little while longer. You will seek Me; (E)and as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I am going, you cannot come,’ so now I say to you. 34 (F)A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. 35 (G)By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.”
Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial
36 Simon Peter said to Him, “Lord, where are You going?”
Jesus answered him, “Where I (H)am going you cannot follow Me now, but (I)you shall follow Me afterward.”
37 Peter said to Him, “Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will (J)lay down my life for Your sake.”
38 Jesus answered him, “Will you lay down your life for My sake? Most assuredly, I say to you, the rooster shall not (K)crow till you have denied Me three times.
