33 And Peter answering said to him, `Even if all shall be stumbled at thee, I will never be stumbled.'
Sustain me according to Thy saying, And I live, and Thou puttest me not to shame Because of my hope. Support Thou me, and I am saved, And I look on Thy statutes continually.
Before destruction `is' pride, And before stumbling -- a haughty spirit.' Better is humility of spirit with the poor, Than to apportion spoil with the proud.
Simon Peter saith to him, `Sir, whither dost thou go away?' Jesus answered him, `Whither I go away, thou art not able now to follow me, but afterward thou shalt follow me.' Peter saith to him, `Sir, wherefore am I not able to follow thee now? my life for thee I will lay down;' Jesus answered him, `Thy life for me thou wilt lay down! verily, verily, I say to thee, a cock will not crow till thou mayest deny me thrice.'
In like manner, ye younger, be subject to elders, and all to one another subjecting yourselves; with humble-mindedness clothe yourselves, because God the proud doth resist, but to the humble He doth give grace; be humbled, then, under the powerful hand of God, that you He may exalt in good time,
