Then Peter said to him, “Look, we have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?”

Peter said to him, “Even if I must die with you, I will never deny you.” And all the disciples said the same thing.

Then he came to the disciples and found them sleeping. He said to Peter, “So, couldn’t you stay awake with me for one hour?

But Peter was following him from a distance, all the way to the high priest’s courtyard. After going in, he sat with the guards to see the outcome.

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A slave girl came to him and said, “You also were with Jesus the Galilean.”

Then Peter remembered what Jesus had said: “Before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times.” And he went outside and wept bitterly.

He did not let anyone follow him except Peter, James, and John, the brother of James.

He asked them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered him, “You are the Christ.”

So while he was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter, James, John, and Andrew asked him privately,

Then he came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, “Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn’t you stay awake for one hour?

When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked directly at him and said, “You also were with that Nazarene, Jesus.”

But he denied it again. A short time later the bystanders again said to Peter, “You must be one of them, because you are also a Galilean.”

But go, tell his disciples, even Peter, that he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there, just as he told you.”

But when Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus’ knees, saying, “Go away from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man!”

Then he said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter answered, “The Christ of God.”

Now about eight days after these sayings, Jesus took with him Peter, John, and James, and went up the mountain to pray.

Then a little later someone else saw him and said, “You are one of them too.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not!”

But Peter said, “Man, I don’t know what you’re talking about!” At that moment, while he was still speaking, a rooster crowed.

Andrew, the brother of Simon Peter, was one of the two disciples who heard what John said and followed Jesus.

Simon Peter said to him, “Lord, where are you going?” Jesus replied, “Where I am going, you cannot follow me now, but you will follow later.”
