Bible verse for April 16

¹² Jesus said to them, “Come, eat breakfast.” Not one of the disciples dared to question him, “Who are you?” because they knew it was the Lord. ¹³ Jesus came, took the bread, and handed it to them, and the fish likewise. ¹⁴ This was already the third time Jesus had shown himself to the disciples since being raised from the dead. ¹⁵ When they had eaten breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” Peter answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus told him, “Feed my lambs.” ¹⁶ Again he asked him, a second time, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus told him, “Shepherd my sheep.” ¹⁷ He asked him the third time, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” It pained Peter that Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He answered him, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.” Jesus told him, “Feed my sheep. ¹⁸ Truly, truly I tell you, when you were younger, you would fasten your own belt and go wherever you wished. But when you grow old, you will stretch out your hands, and another person will fasten a belt around you and take you where you do not wish to go.”
