John 21:15

Peter Is Restored Three Times

¹⁴ This was the third time that Jesus showed himself to the disciples after he had risen from among the dead. ¹⁵ When they were through breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter, "Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?" "Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me." he answered. Jesus said to him, "Feed my lambs." ¹⁶ He said to him a second time, "Simon, son of John, do you love me?" He answered, "Yes, Lord, you know that you are dear to me." "Be a shepherd to my sheep," said Jesus.
