Jesus Predicts Peter's Denial

Matthew 26:31-35

Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of Me this night, for it is written:"
'I will strike the Shepherd,
And the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'
But after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee
Peter answered and said to Him, “Even if all are made to stumble because of You, I will never be made to stumble.”
Jesus said to him, "Assuredly, I say to you this night , before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times."
Peter said to Him, "Even if I have to die with You, I will not deny You!"
And so said all the disciples.

Luke 22:31-35

And the Lord said, “Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. But I have prayed for you; that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren."
 “But he said to Him, “Lord, I am ready to go with You, both to prison and to death.” 
Then He said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster shall not crow this day before you will deny three times that you know Me.”
