and Simon he surnamed Peter;

and had suffered much from many physicians; and had expended all she had, and was nothing better, but rather growing worse and worse;

And he permitted no person to follow him, but Peter, and James, and John a brother of James.

And he said unto them, But who do ye say that I am? Then Peter answering, said unto him, Thou art the Messiah.

And he spake this saying openly. And Peter taking him aside, began to remonstrate with him.

But he turned himself around, and seeing his disciples, he rebuked Peter, saying, Get thee behind me, Satan: for thou dost not relish the things which are of God, but those that are of men.

And six days after Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, only, and carrieth them up with him into an exceeding high mountain in great privacy; and was transfigured before them.

Then Peter addressing him, said unto him, Master, it is desirable for us to be here: and let us erect three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

And if thy hand cause thee to offend, cut it off: it were better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having both hands to go into hell, into the fire that never will be quenched:

And if thy foot cause thee to offend, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life halting, than having both feet to be cast into hell, into the fire which never can be quenched:

And if thine eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into the fire of hell:

And Peter began to say unto him, Lo, we have left all, and followed thee.

And Peter reminding him said, Rabbi, behold, the fig-tree which thou cursedst is withered away.

and to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength; and to love his neighbour as himself, is better than all burnt offerings, and sacrifices.

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

Then Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, that he might betray him unto them.

And as they sat at table, and were eating, Jesus said, Verily I tell you, That one of you, who is eating with me, shall betray me.

Then said Peter unto him, Though all should be offended, yet will not I.

And he taketh Peter, and James, and John, with him; and he began to be filled with horrible dread, and to be sunk under dejection of spirit:

And he came and found them asleep: and saith unto Peter, Sleepest thou? hast thou not strength to watch with me a single hour?

And Peter followed him at a distance, until he came into the palace of the high-priest: and was seated with the servants, and warming himself at the fire.

And as Peter was in the hall, at the lower end, there came to him one of the high-priest's maid-servants:

and seeing Peter warming himself, stedfastly looking at him, she said, Thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

Then he denied it again. And after a little while, they who stood by said to Peter, Of a certainty thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilean, and thy speech is correspondent.

And the second time the cock crew. And Peter remembered the word which Jesus spake unto him, That before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And casting his mantle over his face, he wept.
