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

And if thy right eye cause thee to offend, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should be cast into hell.

And if thy right hand cause thee to offend, cut it off, and cast it from thee; for it is better for thee that one of thy members should perish, than that thy whole body should go away into hell.

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

And Peter answering him said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come to thee on the water.

And he said, Come. And Peter, coming down from the boat, walked on the water, and came to Jesus.

And Peter answering said to him, Explain to us that dark saying.

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

And I on my part say to thee, that thou art Peter, a rock, and on this rock will I build my church, and the gates of the underworld shall not prevail against it.

Then Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him, saying, Be it far from thee, Lord! This shall not be to thee.

But he turned and said to Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan! thou art my stumblingblock; for thy thoughts are not on the things of God, but on those of men.

And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John his brother, and leadeth them up into a high mountain apart.

And Peter answering said to Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here; if thou wilt, I will make here three tents; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

And when they had come to Capernaum, those who received the halfshekel came to Peter, and said, Doth not your teacher pay the halfshekel?

But whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to fall away, it were better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be swallowed up in the depth of the sea.

And if thy hand or thy foot is causing thee to fall, cut it off, and cast it from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life maimed or lame, than having two hands, or two feet, to be cast into the everlasting fire.

And if thine eye is causing thee to fall, pluck it out, and cast it from thee; it is better for thee to enter into life with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hellfire.

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

Then Peter answering said to him, Lo! we left all, and followed thee; what then shall we have?

And as they were eating, he said, Truly do I say to you, that one of you will betray me.

And he answering said, He that hath dipped his hand with me in the dish, he will betray me.

Peter answering said to him, Though all should fall away from thee, yet will I never fall away.

Peter saith to him, Even if I must die with thee, I will not deny thee. And so said all the disciples.

And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to he sorrowful and full of anguish.

And he cometh to the disciples, and findeth them sleeping, and saith to Peter, Is it so that ye could not watch with me one hour?

But Peter followed him at a distance, as far as to the court of the highpriests palace, and went in, and sat with the officers to see the end.

Now Peter was sitting outside in the court. And a maidservant came to him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.

And shortly after, they who were standing by came and said to Peter, Surely thou too art one of them; for thy speech betrayeth thee.

And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, who had said, Before a cock crows, thou wilt thrice deny me. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

and Simon he surnamed Peter;

And he suffered no one to follow him except Peter and James, and John the brother of James.

And he asked them, But who do ye say that I am? Peter answering saith to him, Thou art the Christ.

and he told them this plainly. And Peter, taking him aside, began to rebuke him.

But he turning about and looking at his disciples, rebuked Peter, and saith, Get thee behind me, Satan! for thy thoughts are not on the things of God, but on those of men.

And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter and James and John, and leadeth them up into a high mountain apart by themselves; and he was transfigured before them.

And Peter answering saith to Jesus, Rabbi, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

And whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe to fall away, it would be better for him to have a great millstone hung round his neck, and be cast into the sea.

And if thy hand cause thee to fall away, cut it off. It is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having the two hands to go away into hell, into the fire that is unquenchable.

And if thy foot is causing thee to fall away, cut it off; it is better for thee to enter into life lame, than having the two feet to be cast into hell.

And if thine eye is causing thee to fall away, pluck it out; it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell,

Peter began to say to him, Lo! we left all, and have followed thee.

And Peter remembered and said to him, Rabbi, see! the figtree which thou didst curse is withered away.

And as he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

And as they were reclining at table and eating, Jesus said, Truly do I say to you, that one of you will betray me,one that is eating with me.

But Peter said to him, Even if all shall fall away, yet will not I.

And he taketh with him Peter and James and John; and began to be in great consternation and anguish.

And he cometh and findeth them sleeping; and he saith to Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? Couldst not thou watch one hour?

And Peter followed him afar off, even into the court of the palace of the highpriest, and was sitting with the officers, and warming himself at the fire.

And as Peter was below in the court, there cometh one of the maidservants of the highpriest;

and seeing Peter warming himself, she looked at him and said, Thou too wast with the Nazarene, Jesus.

And he denied it again. And shortly after, those who were standing by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them; for thou art a Galilaean.

And immediately a cock crew a second time. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus had said to him, Before a cock crows twice, thou wilt thrice deny me. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

But go, tell his disciples and Peter, that he is going before you into Galilee; there ye will see him, as he said to you.

And Simon Peter seeing it fell down at the knees of Jesus, saying, Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man.

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

And Jesus said, Who touched me? And when all denied it, Peter and those with him said, Master, the multitudes are thronging thee, and pressing against thee.

And going into the house, he suffered no one to go in with him but Peter and John and James, and the father of the maiden, and the mother.

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

And it came to pass about eight days after this discourse, that he took with him Peter and John and James, and went up into the mountain to pray.

But Peter and those who were with him were weighed down with sleep. But when they awoke, they saw his glory, and the two men that stood with him.

And it came to pass as they were parting from him, that Peter said to Jesus, Master, it is good for us to be here; and let us make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah; not knowing what he said.

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

It were better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck, and be cast into the sea, than to cause one of these little ones to fall away.

Then Peter said, Lo! we left what we had, and followed thee.

Every one who falleth upon that stone will be broken; but on whomever it falleth, it will grind him to powder.

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

And he said, I tell thee, Peter, a cock will not crow this day, till thou hast thrice denied that thou knowest me.

But Jesus said to him, Judas, dost thou betray the Son of man with a kiss?

And they seized him, and led him away, and brought him into the house of the highpriest. And Peter followed afar off.

And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the court, and had sat down together, Peter sat down among them.

And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou also art one of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

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

And the Lord turned and looked upon Peter; and Peter remembered the word of the Lord, that he had said to him, Before a cock crows this day, thou wilt thrice deny me.

He brought him to Jesus. Jesus looking upon him said, Thou art Simon, the son of John; thou shalt be called Cephas; (which signifieth Peter, that is, Rock.)

Now Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

But there are some of you who do not believe. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that did not believe, and who it was that would betray him.

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

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

But Judas Iscariot, one of his disciples, he who was about to betray him, saith,

And supper being served,the Devil having already put it into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray him,

So he cometh to Simon Peter; who saith to him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?

Peter saith to him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.

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

For he knew who was about to betray him; for this reason he said, Ye are not all clean.

Having said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said, Truly, truly do I say to you, that one of you will betray me.

To him therefore Simon Peter maketh a sign, and saith to him, Tell who it is of whom he is speaking.

Simon Peter saith to him, Lord, whither dost thou go? Jesus answered, Whither I go, thou canst not follow me now; but thou wilt follow me afterward.

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

Then Simon Peter, having a sword, drew it and smote the servant of the highpriest, and cut off his right ear. And the servants name was Malchus.

Jesus therefore said to Peter, Put up the sword into the sheath. The cup which the Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

And Simon Peter and the other disciple followed Jesus. That disciple was an acquaintance of the highpriest, and went with Jesus into the court of the palace of the highpriest.

But Peter was standing outside at the door. The other disciple therefore, who was an acquaintance of the highpriest, went out and spoke to her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

Then the maidservant that kept the door saith to Peter, Art thou also one of this mans disciples? He saith, I am not.

And the servants and the officers were standing there, having made a fire of coals, for it was cold, and were warming themselves; and Peter was standing with them and warming himself.

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

One of the servants of the highpriest, being a kinsman of him whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

Then Peter denied again; and immediately a cock crew.

She runneth therefore, 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 tomb, and we know not where they have laid him.

Peter therefore went forth, and the other disciple, and they set out for the tomb.

And they ran both together; and the other disciple outran Peter, and came first to the tomb.
