He let no one go with Him but Peter, James, and James's brother John.

While Peter was down in the courtyard, one of the high priest's waiting girls came up,

Then He began to ask them, "Who do you yourselves say that I am?" Peter answered Him, "You are the Christ."

And without any reserve He was telling them this fact. So Peter took Him aside and began to reprove Him for it.

But He turned and glanced at His disciples and reproved Peter by saying, "Get out of my way, Satan, for this view of yours is not from God but from men!"

Six days after this, Jesus took Peter, James, and John with Him, and led them up on a high mountain, alone by themselves. And in their presence His appearance was changed,

Then Peter interrupted and said to Jesus, "Teacher, it is good for us to be here. So let us put up three tents, one for you and one for Moses and one for Elijah."

The Twelve whom He appointed were: Peter, the name which He gave to Simon,

And Peter followed Him at a distance, as far as the courtyard of the high priest; he was sitting with the attendants and warming himself before the fire.

and when she saw that Peter was warming himself, she looked at him and said, "You were with Jesus of Nazareth too!"

But he denied it again. And again a few minutes later the bystanders began to say to Peter, "You are surely one of them, for you are a Galilean too."

At that moment for the second time a Cock crowed. Then Peter remembered how Jesus had said to him, "Before the cock crows twice, you will disown me three times!" And when he remembered that, he burst into tears.

But you go and tell His disciples and Peter, 'He is going back to Galilee to meet you; you will see Him there, just as He told you.'"

Then Peter started to say to Him, "We have left everything we had and followed you."

And Peter remembered about it, and said to Him, "Look, Teacher! The fig tree which you cursed has withered!"

As He was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew, in a private group, were asking Him,

Then Peter said to Him, "Although all the rest of them stumble over you, yet I will never do so myself."

But Peter kept on emphatically saying, "Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you." And they all kept saying the same thing.

And he took Peter, James, and John along with Him, and He began to feel completely dazed and to realize His anguish of heart,

And He went back and found them asleep, and He said to Peter, "Simon, are you asleep? Could you not watch a single hour?
