And as he was walking by the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, throwing a net into the sea, for they were fishers.

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

Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also delivered him up.

Is not this the son of the carpenter? Is not his mother called Mary? and his brothers, James and Joses and Simon and Judas?

Simon Peter answered and said: Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

And Jesus answered and said to him: Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah; for flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.

He said: Yes. And when he had come into the house, before he had spoken, Jesus said to him: What think you, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect tax or tribute? From their own sons, or from the sons of others?

When Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

And as they were going out, they found a man of Gyrene, named Simon: this man they compelled to carry his cross.

And as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon, and Andrew the brother of Simon, throwing a net about in the sea; for they were fishers.

And forthwith, having gone out of the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

Now the mother-in-law of Simon lay sick of a fever. And at once they told him of her.

And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him.

And Simon he surnamed Peter;

and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the Son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Canaanite,

Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, the brother of James and Joses and Judah and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us? And they found in him cause for offense.

And while he was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper, as he reclined at table, there came a woman that had an alabaster box of ointment of pure nard, very costly; and she broke the box, and poured it on his head.

And he came and found them sleeping; and he said to Peter: Simon, do you sleep? Had you not strength to watch one hour?

And they compelled one Simon, a Cyrenian, (the father of Alexander and Eufus,) who was passing by, coming in from the country, to bear his cross.

And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon. And this man was just and devout, looking for the consolation of Israel. And the Holy Spirit was upon him:

And Simeon blessed them, and said to Mary his mother: Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising again of many in Israel, and for a sign to be spoken against,

son of Simeon, son of Judah, son of Joseph, son of Jonan, son of Eliakim,

And he arose and went out of the synagogue into the house of Simon. And Simon's mother-in-law was confined with a violent fever: and they besought him in her behalf.

And he entered one of the ships, which was Simon s, and requested him to push out a little from the land. And he sat down and taught the multitude from the ship.

And when he had made an end of speaking, he said to Simon: Push out into the deep water, and let down your nets for a draught.

And Simon answered and said to him: Master, we have toiled all night and have caught nothing; but at thy command, I will let down the net.

And when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at the knees of Jesus, and said: Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.

and in like manner also upon James and John the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon: Fear not; from this time forth you shall catch men.

Simon, whom he also named Peter, and Andrew his brother, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew,

Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphreus, and Simon who is called Zelotes,

And Jesus answered and said to him: Simon, I have some thing to say to you. He replied: Teacher, say on.

Simon answered and said: I suppose he to whom he forgave the more. He said to him: You have decided correctly.

And turning toward the woman, he said to Simon: Do you see this woman? I entered your house, you gave me no water for my feet; but she has washed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair.

And the Lord said: Simon, Simon, behold, Satan has demanded you apostles for himself, that he may sift you as wheat.

But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith fail not. And when you have turned to me again, strengthen your brethren.

And as they led him away, they laid hold of Simon, a certain Cyrenian, who was coming from the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might carry it after Jesus.

and saying: The Lord has risen indeed, and has appeared to Simon.

One of the two that heard John speak, and followed him, was Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter.

He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him: We have found the Messiah; (which, when translated, is the Christ;)

and he brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking on him, said: You are Simon, the son of Jonah; you shall be called Cephas (which, when translated, is Rock).

One of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, said to him:

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

He spoke of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon; for he was about to deliver him up, being one of the twelve.

Then said one of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, who was about to deliver him up:

And supper being over, the devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to deliver him up,

Then he came to Simon Peter; and Peter said to him: Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Simon Peter said to him: Lord, not my feet only, but my hands and my head.

Then Simon Peter beckoned to this one, that he should inquire who it was of whom he spoke.

Jesus answered: It is he to whom I shall give this morsel after I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the morsel, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon.

Simon Peter said to him: Lord, whither goest thou? Jesus answered him: Whither I go, you can not follow me now; but you shall follow me hereafter.

Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it, and struck the servant of the chief priest, and cut off his right ear. The name of the servant was Malchus.

And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. And that other disciple was acquainted with the chief priest, and he went in with Jesus into the palace of the chief priest.

And Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. Then they said to him: Are not you also one of his disciples? He denied, and said: I am not.

Then she ran and came to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and said to them: They have taken away the Lord out of the tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.

Then came Simon Peter, following him; and he went into the tomb, and saw the linen cloths lying,

There were together, Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathaniel of Cana of Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two others of his disciples.

Simon Peter said to them: I am going a fishing. They said to him: We also are going with you. They went out and entered the ship; and that night they caught nothing.

Then that disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter: It is the Lord. And when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he girded on his outer coat, for he had on his inner garment only, and threw himself into the sea.

Simon Peter went and drew the net to the land, full of large fishes, a hundred and fifty-three. And though they were so many, the net did not break.

When, therefore, they had taken breakfast, Jesus said to Simon Peter: Simon, son of Jonah, Do you love me more than these? He said to him: Yes, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He said to him: Feed my lambs.

He said to him again a second time: Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me? He said to him: Yes, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He said to him: Be a shepherd to my sheep.

He said to him a third time: Simon, son of Jonah, do you love me? Peter was grieved because he said to him the third time, Do you love me? And he said to him: Lord, thou knowest all things, thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus said to him: Feed my sheep.

And when they had come in, they went up into an upper room, in which dwelt Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphasus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James.

But there was a certain man, named Simon, who had, be fore this time, been practicing magic in the city, and astonishing the people of Samaria, saying that he was some great one;

And Simon himself also believed; and after he was immersed, he continued with Philip; and, seeing the mighty deeds and the signs which were done, he was astonished.

And when Simon saw that the Holy Spirit was given through the laying on of the hands of the apostles, he offered them money,

But Simon answered and said: Pray you both to the Lord for me, that none of the things which you have spoken come upon me.

And it came to pass, that he remained many days in Joppa with one Simon, a tanner.

And now send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter;

he lodges with one Simon a tanner, whose house is by the sea.

Now, while Peter was perplexed within himself about the meaning of the vision which he had seen, behold, the men who had been sent from Cornelius, having made inquiry for the house of Simon, stood before the gate.

And they called and asked whether Simon, who was surnamed Peter, lodged there.

Send, therefore, to Joppa, and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodges in the house of Simon a tanner, by the sea; who, when he comes, will speak to you.

and he told us how he had seen an angel in his house, standing and saying to him, Send to Joppa and call for Simon, who is surnamed Peter;

Now there were certain prophets and teachers in the church that was at Antioch; Barnabas, and Simeon, who is called Niger, and Lucius of Gyrene, and Manaen, who was brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

Simeon has declared how God, at the first, did visit the Gentiles, in order to take out from among them a people for his name.
