Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁵ When, therefore, they had broken their fast, Jesus saith unto Simon Peter––Simon, son of John! lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him––Yea, Lord! thou, knowest that I am fond of thee, he saith unto him––Be feeding my lambs. ¹⁶ He saith unto him, again, the second time––Simon, son of John! lovest thou me? He saith unto him––Yea, Lord! thou, knowest that I am fond of thee. He saith unto him––Be shepherding my sheep. ¹⁷ He saith unto him, the third time––Simon, son of John! art thou fond of me? Peter was grieved, that he said unto him, the third time, Art thou fond of me? and he said unto him––Lord! all things, thou, knowest: thou perceivest that I am fond of thee. Jesus saith unto him––Be feeding my sheep.
