MLV(i)
20 But Peter, turning again, sees the disciple whom Jesus loved following; who also leaned-back upon his chest at the supper and who had said, Lord, who is he who is giving you up?
21 Peter seeing this one says to Jesus, Lord and what about this one?
22 Jesus says to him, If I will for him to abide until I come, what is that to you? You, follow me!
23 Therefore, this speech went forth to the brethren, that, that disciple does not die. And yet Jesus did not say to him that he does not die, but, If I will that he remains until I come, what is that to you?
24 This is the disciple who is testifying concerning these things and wrote these things and we know that his testimony is true.
25 Now there are also many other things testifying to how-much Jesus did, which if they are written one by one, I assume that not even the world itself could make room for the written books.
Amen.
