And he appointed the twelve. And to Simon he gave the name Peter,

And he did not allow anyone to follow along with him except Peter and James and John, the brother of James.

And he asked them, "But who do you say [that] I am?" Peter answered [and] said to him, "You are the Christ!"

And he was speaking openly [about] the subject, and Peter took him aside [and] began to rebuke him.

But turning around and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter and said, "Get behind me, Satan, because you are not setting your mind on the things of God, but the things of people!"

And after six days, Jesus took along Peter and James and John, and led them to a high mountain by themselves alone. And he was transfigured before them,

And Peter answered [and] said to Jesus, "Rabbi, it is good [that] we are here! And let us make three shelters, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah."

Peter began to say to him, "Behold, we have left everything and followed you."

And Peter remembered [and] said to him, "Rabbi, look! The fig tree that you cursed has withered!"

And [as] he was sitting 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 they all fall away, certainly I will not!"

And he took along Peter and James and John with him, and he began to be distressed and troubled.

And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, "Simon, are you sleeping? Were you not able to stay awake one hour?

And Peter followed him from a distance, right inside, into the courtyard of the high priest. And he was sitting with the officers and warming himself by the fire.

And [while] Peter was below in the courtyard, one of the female slaves of the high priest came up

And [when] she saw Peter warming himself, she looked intently at him [and] said, "You also were with the Nazarene, Jesus."

But he denied [it] again. And after a little [while], again the bystanders began to say to Peter, "You really are [one] of them, because you also are a Galilean, and your accent {shows it}!"

And immediately a rooster crowed for the second time. And Peter remembered the statement, how Jesus had said to him, "Before the rooster crows twice, you will deny me three times," and throwing himself down, he began to weep.

But go, tell his disciples and Peter that he is going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you."
