And he gave to Simon the surname of Peter;

And he suffered no one to accompany him save Peter and James, and John the brother of James.

And he asked them, But ye, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering says to him, Thou art the Christ.

And he spoke the thing openly. And Peter, taking him to him, began to rebuke him.

But he, turning round and seeing his disciples, rebuked Peter, saying, Get away behind me, Satan, for thy mind is not on the things that are of God, but on the things that are of men.

And after six days Jesus takes with him Peter and James and John, and takes them up on a high mountain by themselves apart. And he was transfigured before them:

And Peter answering says to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good that we should be here; and let us make three tabernacles, for thee one, and for Moses one, and for Elias one.

And whosoever shall be a snare to one of the little ones who believe in me, it were better for him if a millstone were hung about his neck, and he cast into the sea.

And if thy hand serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having thy two hands to go away into hell, into the fire unquenchable;

And if thy foot serve as a snare to thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having thy two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire unquenchable;

And if thine eye serve as a snare to thee, cast it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, rather than having two eyes to be cast into the hell of fire,

Peter began to say to him, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee.

And Peter, remembering what Jesus had said, says to him, Rabbi, see, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is dried up.

And as he sat on the mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

But Peter said to him, Even if all should be offended, yet not I.

And he takes with him Peter and James and John, and he began to be amazed and oppressed in spirit.

And he comes and finds them sleeping. And he says to Peter, Simon, dost thou sleep? Hast thou not been able to watch one hour?

And Peter followed him at a distance, till he was within the court of the high priest's palace; and he was sitting with the officers and warming himself in the light of the fire.

And Peter being below in the palace-court, there comes one of the maids of the high priest,

and seeing Peter warming himself, having looked at him, says, And thou wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.

And he again denied. And again, after a little, those that stood by said to Peter, Truly thou art one of them, for also thou art a Galilean.

And the second time a cock crew. And Peter remembered the word that Jesus said to him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice; and when he thought thereon he wept.

But go, tell his disciples and Peter, he goes before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him, as he said to you.
