John 21:22-24

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²² Jesus said to him, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you? Follow me!” ²³ So the rumor spread in the community^[a] that this disciple would not die. Yet Jesus did not say to him that he would not die, but, “If it is my will that he remain until I come, what is that to you?”^[b]

²⁴ This is the disciple who is testifying to these things and has written them, and we know that his testimony is true.
