And, behold, they were bringing to Him a paralytic laid upon a couch. And Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, "Child, be of good courage; your sins are forgiven."

Jesus said to him, "Verily I say to you, that this night, before a cock crows, you will thrice deny Me."

Then began he to curse and swear, "I do not know the Man." And straight-way a cock crowed.

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, saying, "Before a cock crows, you will thrice deny Me." And, going forth without, he wept bitterly.

Watch, therefore, for ye know not when the master of the house is coming, at evening, or at midnight, or at cock-crowing, or in the morning;

And Jesus saith to him, "Verily I say to you, that you today, in this night, before the cock crows twice, will thrice deny Me."

But he denied, saying, "I neither know nor understand what you are saying." And he went out into the porch [and the cock crowed].

And straightway the second time the cock crowed. And Peter remembered the word, how Jesus said to him, "Before the cock crows twice, you will deny Me thrice." And, having thought thereon, he kept weeping.

And, behold, men bearing on a couch a man who was a paralytic, and they were seeking to bring him in, and place him before Him.

And, not finding by what means they might bring him in because of the multitude, having gone up on the housetop, they let him down through the tiles with the couch, into the midst, before Jesus.

But, that ye may know that the Son of Man hath authority on the earth to forgive sins (He said to the paralyzed man), I say to you, arise; and, taking up your couch, go to your house."

And He said, "I tell you, Peter, a cock will not crow to-day, until you thrice deny that you know Me."

But Peter said, "Man, I know not what you are saying." And immediately, while he was yet speaking, a cock crowed.

And, turning, the Lord looked upon Peter: and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how He said to him, "Before a cock shall crow to-day, you will thrice deny Me."

Jesus answered, "Will you lay down your soul for Me? Verily, verily, I say to you, a cock shall not crow, till you thrice deny Me."

Again, therefore, Peter denied; and straightway a cock crowed.

And he found there a certain man, Aeneas by name, for eight years lying prostrate on a couch, who was paralyzed.

And, we all having fallen to the earth, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, 'Saul! Saul! why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'

Ye know this, my beloved brethren; but let every man be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath;

and will come forth to deceive the nations that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
