When Simon Peter saw this he fell down at the knees of Jesus, exclaiming, "Depart from me, O Lord, for I am a sinful man!"

"And no man after drinking old wine, wishes for new; for he says, "The old is better.""

They were Simon, whom he had also called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John;

"Who is that touched me?" said Jesus and when everybody denied it, Peter said, "Master, the crowds are hemming you in and pressing upon you."

So he came to the house, and would not permit anyone to go in with him except Peter and John and James, and the father and Mother of the little girl.

Then he said to them, "But who do you say I am?" Then Peter answered saying, "The Christ of God."

About eight days after this it happened that Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and went up on the mountain to pray.

Now Peter and those who were with him were heavy with sleep; but when they were fully awake they saw his glory, and the two men were standing beside him.

And when they were preparing to depart from him Peter said to Jesus. "Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah"??ot knowing what he was saying.

"Better cleanse what is within, and nothing will be unclean for you.

"Master," said Peter, "are you speaking this parable to us or to all alike?"

Then Peter said, "Look! we have left our homes and followed you."

He consented to this, and looked for an opportunity to betray him, when the people were not present.

So Jesus went to Peter and John saying, "Go and prepare for us the Passover, that we may eat it."

"I tell you, Peter," he answered. "the cock will not crow this day until you will three times deny that you know me."

So they seized him and led him away, and took him to the house of the high priest; while Peter was following him a long way off.

And when they had lighted a fire in the center of the court, and had sat down together, Peter was taking his seat among them.

A little later a man saw him, and said, "You too are one of them" But Peter declared, "Man, I am not."

"Man," said Peter, "I do not know what you mean." And immediately, while he was still speaking, the cock crew.

Then the Lord turned and looked at Peter, and Peter recollected the word of the Lord, how he had said to him, "This very day, before the cock crows, you will deny me three times."

And Peter went outside and wept with bitter crying.

Peter, however, got up and ran to the tomb, but when he stooped and looked in he saw the linen wrappings by themselves, and he departed to his home, wondering at that which was come to pass.
