John 21:16 in Context — John 21
14 E esta era já a terceira vez que Jesus se manifestou a seus discípulos, depois de haver ressuscitado dos mortos.
15 Havendo eles pois já jantado, disse Jesus a Simão Pedro: Simão [filho] de Jonas, tu me amas mais do que estes [outros] ? Disse-lhes ele: Sim, Senhor, tu sabes que te amo. Disse-lhe: Alimenta meus cordeiros.
16 Voltou a lhe a dizer a segunda vez: Simão, [filho] de Jonas, tu me amas? Disse-lhe: Sim, Senhor, tu sabes que te amo. Disse-lhe: Apascenta minhas ovelhas.
17 Disse-lhe a terceira vez: Simão, [filho] de Jonas, tu me amas? Entristeceu-se Pedro de que já pela terceira vez lhe dissesse: Tu me amas? E disse-lhe: Senhor, tu sabes todas as coisas, tu sabes que eu te amo. Disse-lhe Jesus: Alimenta minhas ovelhas.
18 Em verdade, em verdade te digo, que quando eras mais jovem, tu mesmo te vestias, e andava por onde querias; mas quando fores já velho, estenderás tuas mãos, e outro te vestirá, e te levará para onde tu não queres.
