Luke 22 — Context

31

“Simon, Simon, pay attention! Satan has demanded to have you all, to sift you like wheat,

32

but I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. When you have turned back, strengthen your brothers.”

33

But Peter said to him,“Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death!”

34

Jesus replied,“I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow today until you have denied three times that you know me.”

35

Then Jesus said to them,“When I sent you out with no money bag, or traveler’s bag, or sandals, you didn’t lack anything, did you?” They replied,“Nothing.”

36

He said to them,“But now, the one who has a money bag must take it, and likewise a traveler’s bag too. And the one who has no sword must sell his cloak and buy one.

37

For I tell you that this scripture must be fulfilled in me,‘And he was counted with the transgressors.’ For what is written about me is being fulfilled.”
