Then saith the maid, who kept the door, to Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples?

He saith, I am not. And the servants and officers, having made a fire of coals (for it was cold) stood and warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them and warmed himself.

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

One of the servants of the high priest (being kinsman to him whose ear Peter had cut off) saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

Peter denied again, and immediately the cock crew.

Then she runneth and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple whom Jesus loved, and saith to them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

Then Peter went out and the other disciple, and ran toward the sepulchre.

They both ran together: but the other disciple outran Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie, And the napkin that was about his head,

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

Simon Peter saith to them, I go a fishing. They say to him, We also go with thee. They went out and entered into the vessel, but caught nothing that night.

Then the disciple whom Jesus loved saith to Peter, It is the Lord. Simon Peter hearing that it was the Lord, girt on his upper coat (for he was stript) and threw himself into the sea.

Simon Peter went on board, and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, an hundred and fifty and three; and tho' there were so many, the net was not broken.

When they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonah, lovest thou me more than these do? He saith to him, Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee.

He saith to him, Yea, Lord, thou knowest that I love thee. He saith to him, Feed my sheep. He saith to him the third time, Simon, son of Jonah, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved, because he said to him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said to him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith to him, Feed my sheep.

Peter turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following, who also leaned on his breast at supper, and said, Lord, who is he that betrayeth thee?

Peter seeing him, saith to Jesus, Lord, what shall this man do?

And when they were come in, they went up into the upper-room, where both Peter and James, and John and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alpheus, and Simon Zelotes, and Jude the brother of James tarried.

And in these days, Peter standing up in the midst of the disciples, (the number of persons together was about an hundred and twenty) said,

Then Peter standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said to them, Men of Judea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known to you, and hearken to my words.

And hearing this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, Brethren, what shall we do?

And Peter said, Repent, and be baptized every one of you, in the name of Jesus, for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Now Peter and John went up together into the temple, at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

And a certain man, lame from his mother's womb, was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple, called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that were entering into the temple, Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple,

And Peter, looking stedfastly upon him, with John, said, Look on us.

Then said Peter, Silver and gold have I none; but what I have, I give thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.

And as he held Peter and John, all the people ran together to them, in the portico that is called Solomon's, greatly wondering.

And Peter seeing it, answered the people, Ye men of Israel, why marvel ye at this? Or, why do ye fix your eyes on us, as if by our own power or piety, we had made this man to walk?

Then Peter filled with the Holy Ghost, said to them, Ye rulers of the people, and elders of Israel,

And seeing the boldness of Peter and John, and understanding that they were illiterate and uneducated men, they marvelled, and took knowledge of them, that they had been with Jesus.

But Peter and John answering, said to them, Whether it be righteous in the sight of God, to obey you rather than God, judge ye.

But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thy heart, to lie to the Holy Ghost?

And Peter said to her, Tell me, if ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.

And Peter said to her, Why have ye agreed together, to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? Behold, the feet of them that have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.

So that they brought out the sick along the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that even the shadow of Peter coming by, might overshadow some of them.

Then Peter and the other apostles answering said, We ought to obey God rather than man.

And the apostles who were at Jerusalem, hearing that Samaria had received the word of God, sent to them Peter and John:

But Peter said to him, Thy money perish with thee, because thou hast thought to purchase the gift of God with money.

And as Peter passed through all parts, he came down also to the saints that dwelt at Lydda.

And Peter said to him, Eneas, Jesus Christ healeth thee. Arise and make thy bed.

And Lydda being near Joppa, the disciples hearing Peter was there, sent to him two men, desiring that he would not delay to come to them.

Then Peter arose and went with them; whom being come, they brought into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.

But Peter, having put them all out, kneeled down and prayed; and turning to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes, and seeing Peter, sat up.

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

On the morrow, as they journeyed and drew nigh to the city, Peter went up on the house-top, to pray, about the sixth hour.

And a voice came to him, Rise, Peter, kill and eat.

But Peter said, In no wise, Lord: for I have never eaten any thing common or unclean.

Now while Peter doubted in himself, what the vision he had seen should mean, behold the men sent by Cornelius, having inquired out Simon's house, stood at the gate,

And calling asked, Whether Simon, surnamed Peter, lodged there?

While Peter was musing on the vision, the Spirit said to him, Behold, men seek thee.

Then Peter going down to the men, said, Behold, I am he whom ye seek: for what cause are ye come?

And he invited them in and lodged them. And the next day, Peter went away with them; and certain brethren from Joppa went with him.

And as Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him, and falling down at his feet, worshiped him.

But Peter raised him up saying, Arise: I myself also am a man.

Send therefore to Joppa, and call hither Simon, who is surnamed Peter: he lodgeth in the house of Simon a tanner by the sea, who being come, shall speak to thee.

Then Peter opening his mouth, said, I perceive of a truth that God is not a respecter of persons:

While Peter was yet speaking these words, the Holy Ghost fell on all that were hearing the word.

And the believers of the circumcision, as many as came with Peter, were amazed, that the gift of the Holy Ghost was poured out on the Gentiles also.

Then Peter answered, Can any man forbid water, that these should not be baptized, who have received the Holy Ghost, even as we?

And when Peter was come up to Jerusalem, they of the circumcision debated with him, saying, Thou wentest in to men uncircumcised,

Then Peter beginning, laid all things before them in order, saying, I was praying in the city of Joppa,

And I heard a voice saying to me, Rise Peter, kill and eat.

surnamed Peter, Who shall tell thee words, whereby thou and all thy family may be saved.

And perceiving it pleased the Jews, he proceeded to take Peter also.

So Peter was kept in the prison; but continual prayer was made to God by the church for him.

And when Herod was about to bring him forth, the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and the guards before the door were keeping the prison.

And behold, an angel of the Lord stood over him, and light shined in the house: and smiting Peter on the side he waked him, saying, Rise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.

And Peter coming to himself, said, Now I know of a truth, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

And knowing Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for joy, but running in, told them, that Peter stood before the gate.

But Peter continued knocking. And opening the door, they saw him and were astonished.

And going out, he went to another place. Now when it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers, What was become of Peter?

And after much debate, Peter rose up and said to them, Brethren, ye know, that God long ago made choice among us, that the Gentiles should by my mouth hear the word of the gospel and believe.

And when we were torn away from them, and had set sail, we ran with a strait course to Coos, and the next day to Rhodes, and thence to Patara.

What then? Are we better than they? In no wise: for we have before proved all, both Jews and Gentiles, to be under sin.

Hath not the potter power over the clay, out of the same mass to make one vessel to honour, and another to dishonour?

But if they have not power over themselves, let them marry; for it is better to marry than to burn.

So then he also that giveth in marriage, doth well; but he that giveth not in marriage, doth better.

But meat commendeth us not to God; for neither if we eat, are we the better, nor if we eat not, are we the worse.

Have we not power to lead about with us a sister, a wife, as well as the other apostles, and the brethren of the Lord, and Peter?

But I have used none of these things; nor have I written thus, that it might be done so unto me: for it were better for me to die, than that any man should make this my glorying void.

But in this which I declare, I praise you not, that ye come together not for the better, but for the worse.

Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.

But on the contrary, when they saw that I was intrusted with the gospel of the uncircumcision, as Peter with that of the circumcision:

(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, wrought likewise effectually in me toward the Gentiles:

But when Peter came to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be condemned.

For I am in a strait between two, having a desire to depart and to be with Christ, for it is far better.

Do nothing through strife or vain-glory, but in lowliness of mind, esteem each the others better than themselves.

Husbands, love your wives, and be not bitter against them.

But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things that accompany salvation, though we thus speak.

For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did, by which we draw nigh to God.

Of so much better a covenant was Jesus made a surety.

And now he hath obtained a more excellent ministry, by how much better a covenant he is a mediator of, which is established upon better promises.

It was therefore necessary, that the patterns of things in heaven should be purified by these, but the heavenly things themselves by better sacrifices than these.

For ye sympathized with my bonds, and received with joy the spoiling of your goods, knowing that ye have in heaven a better and an enduring substance.

But they now desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God; for he hath prepared a city for them.

others were tortured, not accepting deliverance, that they might obtain a better resurrection.

did not receive the promise, God having provided some better thing for us, that they might not be perfected without us.

And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, which speaketh better things than that of Abel. See that ye refuse not him that speaketh:

Doth a fountain send out of the same place sweet water and bitter?

But if ye have bitter zeal and strife in your hearts, do not glory and lie against the truth.
