And walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishers;

And when Jesus had come to Peter's house, he saw his mother-in-law laid down and in a fever;

Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who was called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother;

Fear not therefore; ye are better than many sparrows.

How much better then is a man than a sheep! So that it is lawful to do well on the sabbath.

And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be thou, command me to come to thee upon the waters.

And he said, Come. And Peter, having descended from the ship, walked upon the waters to go to Jesus.

And Peter answering said to him, Expound to us this parable.

And Simon Peter answering said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

And I also, I say unto thee that thou art Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and hades' gates shall not prevail against it.

And Peter taking him to him began to rebuke him, saying, God be favourable to thee, Lord; this shall in no wise be unto thee.

But turning round, he said to Peter, Get away behind me, Satan; thou art an offence to me, 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 his brother, and brings them up into a high mountain apart.

And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good we should be here. If thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles: for thee one, and for Moses one, and one for Elias.

And when they came to Capernaum, those who received the didrachmas came to Peter and said, Does your teacher not pay the didrachmas?

Peter says to him, From strangers. Jesus said to him, Then are the sons free.

Then Peter came to him and said, Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me and I forgive him? until seven times?

Then Peter answering said to him, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee; what then shall happen to us?

And he that falls on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.

And Peter answering said to him, If all shall be offended in thee, I will never be offended.

Peter says to him, If I should needs die with thee, I will in no wise deny thee. Likewise said all the disciples also.

And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and deeply depressed.

And he comes to the disciples and finds them sleeping, and says to Peter, Thus ye have not been able to watch one hour with me?

And Peter followed him at a distance, even to the palace of the high priest, and entering in sat with the officers to see the end.

But Peter sat without in the palace-court; and a maid came to him, saying, And thou wast with Jesus the Galilaean.

And after a little, those who stood there, coming to him, said to Peter, Truly thou too art of them, for also thy speech makes thee manifest.

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said to him, Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went forth without, and wept bitterly.

And having taken counsel, they bought with them the field of the potter for a burying-ground for strangers.

and they gave them for the field of the potter, according as the Lord commanded me.

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.

But Simon Peter, seeing it, fell at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me, for I am a sinful man, Lord.

And no one having drunk old wine straightway wishes for new, for he says, The old is better.

Simon, to whom also he gave the name of Peter, and Andrew his brother, and James and John, and Philip and Bartholomew,

And Jesus said, Who has touched me? But all denying, Peter and those with him said, Master, the crowds close thee in and press upon thee, and sayest thou, Who has touched me?

And when he came to the house he suffered no one to go in but Peter and John and James and the father of the child and the mother.

And he said to them, But ye, who do ye say that I am? And Peter answering said, The Christ of God.

And it came to pass after these words, about eight days, that taking Peter and John and James he went up into a mountain to pray.

But Peter and those with him were oppressed with sleep: but having fully awoke up they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.

And it came to pass as they departed from him, Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tabernacles, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias: not knowing what he said.

But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not therefore, ye are better than many sparrows.

Consider the ravens, that they sow not nor reap; which have neither storehouse nor granary; and God feeds them. How much better are ye than the birds?

And Peter said to him, Lord, sayest thou this parable to us, or also to all?

And Peter said, Behold, we have left all things and have followed thee.

Every one falling on this stone shall be broken, but on whomsoever it shall fall, it shall grind him to powder.

And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare the passover for us, that we may eat it.

And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow to-day before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

And having laid hold on him, they led him away, and they led him into the house of the high priest. And Peter followed afar off.

And they having lit a fire in the midst of the court and sat down together, Peter sat among them.

And after a short time another seeing him said, And thou art of them. But Peter said, Man, I am not.

And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he was yet speaking, the cock crew.

And the Lord, turning round, looked at Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he said to him, Before the cock crow thou shalt deny me thrice.

And Peter, going forth without, wept bitterly.

But Peter, rising up, ran to the sepulchre, and stooping down he sees the linen clothes lying there alone, and went away home, wondering at what had happened.

Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two who heard this from John and followed him.

And Philip was from Bethsaida, of the city of Andrew and Peter.

He inquired therefore from them the hour at which he got better. And they said to him, Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.

One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, says to him,

Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast words of life eternal;

He comes therefore to Simon Peter; and he says to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Peter says to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, Unless I wash thee, thou hast not part with me.

Simon Peter says to him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.

Simon Peter makes a sign therefore to him to ask who it might be of whom he spoke.

Simon Peter says to him, Lord, where goest thou? Jesus answered him, Where I go thou canst not follow me now, but thou shalt follow me after.

Peter says to him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thee.

Simon Peter therefore, having a sword, drew it, and smote the bondman of the high priest and cut off his right ear; and the bondman's name was Malchus.

Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given me, shall I not drink it?

But it was Caiaphas who counselled the Jews that it was better that one man should perish for the people.

Now Simon Peter followed Jesus, and the other disciple. But that disciple was known to the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest;

but Peter stood at the door without. The other disciple therefore, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the porteress and brought in Peter.

The maid therefore, who was porteress, says to Peter, Art thou also of the disciples of this man? He says, I am not.

But the bondmen and officers, having made a fire of coals (for it was cold), stood and warmed themselves; and Peter was standing with them and warming himself.

But Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, Art thou also of his disciples? He denied, and said, I am not.

One of the bondmen of the high priest, who was kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, says, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

Peter denied therefore again, and immediately the cock crew.

She runs therefore and comes to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, to whom Jesus was attached, and says to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.

Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and came to the tomb.

And the two ran together, and the other disciple ran forward faster than Peter, and came first to the tomb,

Simon Peter therefore comes, following him, and entered into the tomb, and sees the linen cloths lying,
