Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
Te digo la verdad: cuando eras joven, te preparabas y ibas adonde querías ir. Pero cuando seas viejo, extenderás tus manos, y otro te preparará y te llevará adonde no quieras ir.
Jesús le dice a Pedro que en su vejez ya no tendrá control sobre su propio destino.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of John, chapter 21, this verse occurs after Jesus' resurrection during a conversation on the beach where He is restoring Peter to his role as a leader among the disciples. Jesus is prophetically describing Peter's future, contrasting his youthful freedom with the constraints he will face in old age, likely alluding to his eventual martyrdom. This reflects the early Christian context of persecution under Roman rule, where followers of Jesus often suffered imprisonment and death.
