Евангелие

John.21:16 He saith to him again the sec­ond time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou know­est that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
John.21:17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved be­cause he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou know­est all things; thou know­est that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep.
John.21:18 Ver­ily, ver­ily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou gird­est thy­self, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and an­other shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
John.21:19 This spake he, sig­ni­fy­ing by what death he should glo­rify God. And when he had spo­ken this, he saith unto him, Fol­low me.
