John 6:69
67 So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?”
68 Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.
We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”
70 Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”
71 He was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. For although Judas was one of the Twelve, he was later to betray Jesus.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
