Dialogue Jesus and Peter. The Gospel of John 21 15-19:
when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter: Simon, son! Do you love me more than these? Peter says Him: "Yes, Lord! You know that I love you. Jesus said to him: Feed my lambs. He said to him a second time: Simon, son! do you love me? Peter said to him: Yes, Lord! You know that I love you. Jesus said to him: Feed my sheep. Tells him the third time: Simon, son! do you love me? Peter was grieved because the third once asked him: "Do you love me?", and said unto him: O Lord! You know everything, you know that I love you. Jesus said to him: Feed my sheep. Verily, verily, I say to you: when you were young, then gird oneself himself and walked where you wanted, and when old, you will stretch out your hands, and another girt thee, and lead where you do not want. Said this, signifying what death he should glorify God. Having said this, he said to him: Follow me.
