Peter was grieved^(F) that he asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know everything;^(G) you know that I love you.”

“Feed^(H) my sheep,” Jesus said. ¹⁸ “Truly I tell you,^(I) when you were younger, you would tie your belt and walk wherever you wanted. But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands and someone else will tie you and carry you where you don’t want to go.”
